Erica Mena Promises Previously Unseen Videos of Her and Safaree Along With ‘Special Announcements’

“Love and Hip Hop” couple Erica Mena and Safaree Samuels reportedly have a few surprises to divulge, and fans can hardly wait.

Social media users seemed to be invested in Mena and Samuels’ relationship, and the model made sure to grab their attention with a recent post. She took to her Instagram on Thursday with a video of her and her fiancé booed up on their vacation in Costa Rica and mentioned that she had some exciting news to share with fans.

Mena explained that she and Samuels plan to reveal never-before-seen footage of their special moments together.

“The Only Friend He Needs,” the 31-year-old wrote in her caption, seemingly shading her “LHHNY” co-star Joe Budden for their recent debacle. We have special announcements and so many never before seen videos and pictures we can’t wait to share with you all.”

Fans who’ve been speculating for the last few months about the model being with child, automatically assumed she was pregnant.

“Just have the baby already 😍I’m waitin,” one fan commented underneath their video.

“Tell us that you’re pregnant already!” another added.

One fan wondered whether the “LHHNY” couple would be getting a spinoff show.

“Let me guess Mona giving yall own show 🙌.”

Other folks were stuck on Mena and Samuels’ recent drama with Budden and his fiancée Cyn Santana.

“Cyn is so jealous and Joe is pressed for not reason 🤔🤦🏾‍♀️. I’m glad you shut them down!” another exclaimed.

Mena recently accused Budden of cheating on his fiancée and her ex-girlfriend Santana after a recent episode of “LHHNY” aired on Feb. 25. During the episode, Budden and Samuels almost came to blows after the “Pump It Rapper” scolded Samuels for secretly bringing Mena on the “LHHNY” cast’s vacation to Costa Rica.

Mena, who was upset with Budden’s heated confrontation with her fiancé, took to Twitter on Feb. 26 and tweeted, “I don’t get it [Joe & Safaree’s fight] especially since no one really cared. Let alone asked about Cyn whereabouts when he brought another female to my mans crib.”

Budden has yet to address if whether Mena’s cheating rumors were true and if he indeed did bring another woman to Samuels’ home. Santana appears to also be taking the high road and ignoring her ex-girlfriend’s accusations.

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.
