Tiny Harris Drops Major Dough for Husband T.I.’s 38th Birthday

Tiny Harris got tons of luxurious gifts for her birthday from husband T.I. in July and she’s returning the favor for his birthday.

On Monday, Sept. 24, Harris treated her husband to a tropical getaway as she followed behind him.

“Just a little of how we living,” Harris captioned the video of Tip scoping out the ocean-front house complete with a pool.

“For the birthday boy,” Harris noted in another inscription.

She later captured her and the family singing happy birthday to the rapper, who turned 38 on Sept. 25.

“Happy birthday My Love @troubleman31,” Harris wrote over the video.

That the  Xscape member would splurge on celebrating her man’s born day is no shocker. When Harris turned 43 a couple of months earlier, Tip gifted her with a custom Mercedes-Benz S550 convertible filled to the brim with lots of gifts.

But since T.I. was embroiled in a cheating scandal with “Greenleaf” star Asia’h Epperson the month before, some fans reacted quizzically to the chummy interaction between the spouses.

“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”

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

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

Still, Harris made it clear she was appreciative of her man and loved him anyway.

“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!” she wrote on Instagram.

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.
