‘LHHH’ Members Moniece Slaughter and Apryl Jones Go Tit-for-Tat Over Lil Fizz While Omarion Gets Exposed

Social media was stunned to see “Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood” stars Moniece Slaughter and Apryl Jones beefing with one another on Instagram this week.

Slaughter claimed that her former co-star Jones was dating the father of her child and B2K band-mate Lil Fizz. The B2K rapper is also Jones’ ex Omarion‘s close friend and band-mate.

The incident began after Slaughter posted photos of herself holding hands with a man who fans thought was her ex-boyfriend Fizz. She rebutted the rumors by saying that her “baby daddy” was in Chicago with his alleged new love interest Jones.

“It’s impossible for them to be his hands because his hands are in Chicago with Apryl and the kids,” she wrote while firing back at fans. “My kid included.”

The 31-year-old mother stressed in an Instagram Live video that she liked Jones and didn’t mind her dating Fizz. She also said that Fizz lied to her about taking their son to Chicago.

Jones clapped back at Slaughter and said her relationship with Fizz was strictly platonic and there’s nothing romantic going on.

Both women hopped on Instagram Live together and hashed out their differences in front of everyone. Slaughter told Jones that she doesn’t have an issue with her and Jones, reiterating that she and Fizz were not dating, but were more “best friends.”

Although the drama between Slaughter and Jones seemingly was put to rest, Jones still had a fight to pick with her ex Omarion. In a separate Instagram Live video, she brutally exposed the singer by saying he doesn’t help take care of their two children. She claimed that he doesn’t financially provide for the kids and barely sees them

She said she never took him to court for child support but claimed he served her with papers on Mother’s Day.

“Y’all going to see me working more. I am able to provide for my children, but because he is not helping me, I don’t have a sitter, a nanny or any help. His family doesn’t help me. It’s difficult,” Jones said. “He needs to be responsible, and he needs to help me since he’s not helping me financially. Yep. Truth. .. I filed with the DCSS, but y’all don’t even want to know the amount I’m getting ’cause he hid his assets. Let’s be honest about that, too. But I guess that’s what they all do. But I’m not getting ‘nothin.”

The mother of two added that her relationship with Omarion was extremely unhealthy, and that’s why they called it quits in 2016.

“You don’t ever know what’s going on behind closed doors,” she said. “It was a lot that was happening. I wasn’t completely happy.” She later added, “I’ve been quiet for way too long. The fool won’t even talk to me. How am I supposed to deal with someone like that?”

The “Touch” singer has yet to respond back to Jones’ deadbeat claims.

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.
