Joseline Hernandez Slammed for Joking About Daughter’s Future, ‘Are You Dumb?

Former “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Joseline Hernandez has been receiving a lot of backlash over her parenting skills, and now fans are questioning the career options Hernandez is selecting for her daughter.

The “Puerto Rican Princess” seems to be making career choices already for little Bonnie Bella. She took to Instagram on Friday morning and shared an adorable picture of her 1-year-old all dolled up. The reality star captioned the image: “Future Russian spy šŸ•µļøā€ā™€ļø šŸ˜‚.”

However, fans didn’t find Hernandez’s post too amusing. They slammed the VH1 reality star for considering such a “dangerous” profession for her baby girl to enter into.

“Why would you say such dangerous thing about your American child! A Russian spy? Really,” said one teed off fan.

Another added, “She’s pretty, but please don’t joke about her being a spy.”

“Why do you want to claim your child for that job rebuke that because that ain’t no Country to play with, child please.”

“Ahmmm no Russian Spy for Bonnie are you crazy @joseline… No Bonnie Bella you are the future president.”

“If it’s one thing a mother better learn to do is speak life, good health& prosperity over their seed. That “Joke” sucked. But those who know better do and say better.”

“What you smoking Joseline I thought you have more sense than that why would call your child a Russian spy.”

One social media user wrote, “She is far too beautiful and sweet to be a spy! Why would your dumb a** want her to be a spy they get killed.”

This isn’t the first time social media bashed Hernandez as a mother. The star’s racy images recently sent the Internet in an uproar and had people in the comments questioning Hernandez’s role as a mother.

“Girl think about ur daughter seeing or doing type of stuff.”

“I’m not knocking nobodies hustle… but once you have children.. it’s time to switch up & clean up. As mothers we lead by example. Her last couple of post are tacky to 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.
