Despite the drama that Peter Gunz has caused both “Love & Hip Hop” stars Tara Wallace and Amina Buddafly, the former has decided to take the high road.

Wallace and Buddafly buried the hatchet over Gunz stepping out on wife Buddafly and having two kids with Wallace, whom he met 18 years ago, during their marriage. The two women made up for the sake of Gunz three children on season seven of the Vh1 series last year.

That makes it a little less surprising, then, that Wallace helped Gunz’s soon-to-be-ex-wife promote her new album. And with all the water under the bridge, Wallace made time to joke about the old drama between them while promoting Amina’s new album, “Mother.”

“Hello, Barbara this is Shirley…🤦🏾‍♀️🤣 (I had to beat y’all to it)👦🏽👦🏽👧🏽👦🏽👧🏽 Go cop #Mother @aminabuddafly new album!” Wallace said tongue-in-cheek.

The caption references the 1974 Shirley Brown song “Woman to Woman” where the singer calls her boyfriend’s other woman, Barbara, a call to let her know she’s his main chick.

Since the drama between Wallace and Buddafly got put to rest, Buddayfly confirmed to the Jasmine Brand at the start of the year that she and Gunz were divorcing.

“It’s pretty simple: Peter and I have been separated living separate lives for two years now, that is a long time and a lot can happen in 2 years,” she said in January. “It took a while, but I got over him in that time by focusing on me and my children. I’ve accepted the situation for what it was two years ago when I left town.”

Meanwhile, in response to the joke Wallace posted, several fans have applauded the women for finding humor in past issues.

“Now this shut s— down 2 Beautiful ass Boss Women with sense of humor😂😂😂😭😍.”

“@iamtarawallace and @aminabuddafly I LOVE y’all for this!!”

“Aww I’m glad they getting along for the family.”

“You kno what!!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 that’s how you push thru the B.S.”

And Buddafly herself responded in kind to Wallace.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
