‘I Like Him Better Than Stevie’: Joseline Hernandez and Boo Doused With Compliments for Their Latest Photo

Joseline Hernandez and her boyfriend DJ Ballistics are lighting up the Internet with their spicy photos.

The couple have been dating for a while now and have seemingly been posting photos of each other nonstop. Hernandez, 32, uploaded a photo of herself and her beau at Miami’s Drip Wet Festival last week. Ballistics wrapped his arms around Hernandez’s shoulders as they posed for an intimate photo together.

“#PuertoRicanPrincess so motherf–king @ri28challenge,” the former “Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” star wrote in her caption.

Fans immediately ballyhooed Hernandez’s post, letting everyone know he’s an apparent upgrade from her ex.

“Y’all fine @joseline I like him way better than Stevie ❤️.”

“Ur man looks good girl go head sis!”

“Can you make one more baby y’all tooooo cute 😍!”

“I’m glad she upgraded from Stebie he a b–ch! Glad to see you happy 💞.”

Stevie J. appears to be the least of Hernandez’s worries, although reports from last week claimed he’s taking her to court again for another custody battle over their 2-year-old daughter Bonnie Bella.

Over the past few months, the 32-year-old mother claimed Stevie was absent from their daughter’s life and hasn’t seen the child in over a year. The “Hitman” producer, on the other hand, denied her accusations, suggesting that he’s tried visiting baby Bonnie but Hernandez won’t let him.

As for Hernandez and her boyfriend Ballistics, they publicly announced their relationship in April, with her writing in the caption, “He knows i love him.” She also seemingly referred to him as her daughter’s “stepdaddy,” posting a photo of him and Bella with the hashtag “daddysgirl.”

Some fans nevertheless seem to be on the fence about Hernandez’s new boo, claiming that his body language gives off possessive vibes.

“He seems like he’s possessive af! look at his arms around her neck, i don’t trust him 🤷.”

“Her man look crazy 😱😱I’m telling you, the man has a temper 🗣.”

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.
