Rapper T.I surprised wife Tiny Harris with a luxurious S550 Mercedes Benz convertible for her birthday.

Harris took to Instagram to thank her husband. She posted a video while sitting in the new car with shopping bags packed in the backseat. The caption said, “Thank you so much Mr. Harris @troubleman31 for showing up on MY ACTUAL birthday & showing out! I really really love this car & all the other nice gifts & I just wanted to tell u how thankful I am. Regardless of whatever, you have done more for me & showed me more love than most will ever have a man to do/give in a lifetime & I appreciate you for that! By the way I’m having an amazing birthday! Thank you to everyone who made this day a special one!! 🙏🏽👑😘💘❤ #714#CancerSeason #17yrsWorth”

Fans were happy to see the couple on good terms. In 2017 Tiny filed for divorce due to T.I’s infidelities. On the 100th episode of their now-canceled reality show “The Family Hustle,” Tiny revealed that they were living apart because Tip “had some infidelities with a girl I hired.” The rapper has also been linked to video model Bernice Burgos and now actress Asia’h Epperson. In the last couple of months, a video went viral of the rapper inappropriately touching Epperson on the butt and kissing her neck. Some fans praised T.I.’s gesture, but other felt the birthday gift was a way to make amends with Harris.

“TIP MY NIGGA YOU A BEAST GOOD JOB OG!!!!! I LIKE DAT!!”

“Yes I saw it yesterday @troubleman31 always comes through for his family..👍🏽👍🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽Much respect to Marriage @majorgirl ”

“@troubleman31 you’re so awesome well done King @majorgirl Happy birthday Queen you deserve everything and more #CancerLove#”

“I’m so happy for you love you god bless you deserve everything tiny”

And some people don’t think T.I is trying to buy the Xscape singers forgiveness,

“No she’s telling us she has no SELF RESPECT”

“Only if their was some loyalty in one of dem bags rich or poor we shouldn’t take crap from these men he’s talked shit about you and your marriage but just because a new car n clothes its k”

” I have a family member the same way. I don’t feel bad for women like this. Hella materialistic🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮”

“🤦🏻‍♀️ I love love respect and loyalty for my birthday. I guess You can’t buy a women like me. 🤸🏻‍♂️”

 

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
