This May be the Reason Why Quad Webb-Lunceford’s Relationship with Mariah Huq Is So Tense

Quad Webb-Lunceford’s sordid history with Mariah Huq is apparently more personal than previously thought as a new report claims the soon-to-be divorcé cheated on her then-fiancé with Huq’s sister’s husband.

A source spilled the allegations to All About the Tea Monday, Nov. 5 saying, “Quad slept with Mariah’s sister’s husband while they were best friends. Quad hates Mariah because Mariah has her number. Mariah has inside knowledge of the affair, and that makes Quad uncomfortable. She knows that she betrayed not only her husband but her best friend.”

The insider continued that when Huq’s sister, Lekeeda “Lake” Kelley, discovered the infidelity, she showed up at Webb-Lunceford’s home and struck her on the left side of her face. A police report was filed over the 2010 incident and Kelley’s marriage was on the fritz.

“The affair broke Lake’s heart and destroyed her marriage,” the source divulged. “Lake and her husband went to counseling, then separated for a while and eventually divorced in 2012. They later resumed living together for their son and that’s when Lake got pregnant again.”

Webb-Lunceford had alleged her husband Dr. Greg Lunceford, whom she’s now divorcing, has stepped out on her. While he denied he cheated when speaking to V-103, Jackie Presley, his alleged mistress, maintained they made it to third base.

“We get in the room and foreplay was happening … talking, kissing, foreplay, oral sex and then he proceeds to get on top of me without a condom,” she told the radio station in September. “And I said, ‘No, where’s your condom?’ And he said, ‘I don’t have one.’ Again, proceeds to get on me, put it in without a condom.”

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.
