‘LHHH’ Brooke Valentine Sends Stern Message Seemingly Aimed at Marcus Black

“Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood” actress Brooke Valentine shared a questionable message on her social media that had fans raising eyebrows.

During season 5 of “LHHH,” Valentine and her former lover Marcus Black have been dealing with a boatload of relationship drama. The couple apparently has feelings for one another, but the rapper accused Valentine of not wanting to commit. However, the Houston native posted a strong message that had fans wondering if it was directed toward Black.

The 33-year-old took to her Instagram Story on Sunday and wrote, “How come when you catch somebody lying they be madder than you.”

Black coincidentally commented, “Fact” on one of the singer’s photos that read “Stank a$$ tude.”

Fans chimed in under Black’s comment and said the two were “meant together.”

“[Marcus Black] loves the girl. Soulmate fr I hope you stay together ya’ll so cute,” one fan reacted.

“[Marcus Black] and u love all that stank attttitudeee,” another added.

“I knew my fav couple wasn’t going down like that after all they been threw.”

“I hope u ain’t upset our wife bout attitude. Happy wife, best-life.”

“Dudes love a crazy chick. Crazy over them. n u get the thumbs up

One person asked, “Are you guys together or na? You keep commenting on every pic and it’s giving us mixed signals.”

Valentine and Black called it quits during Season 4 of “LHHH” after the “Girl Fight” artist caught her ex-boyfriend cheating with a paralegal and lying about still being married. They tried to work things out afterward, but Valentine began dating her best friend Daniel “Booby” Gibson.

However, during the current season Black allegedly proposed to Valentine, who told him she wasn’t quite ready to get married. The two have since remained friends, but the Houston singer is on a quest to fight for Black’s love.

Independent journalism still matters.

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.
