To add more fuel to the flame, Evans shared a cryptic post to her page on Tuesday with a confused face emoji that read, “If you can’t explain it simply. You don’t understand it well enough.”

Stevie J. himself tweeted a series of enigmatic messages back to back on Monday, reading, “Drunk people always speak their truth,” “Ones insecurities can damage them” and “All that glitters ain’t gold.”

Early Wednesday morning, he also tweeted, “Cherish what you love just know nothing will last forever.”

Stevie and Evans shockingly tied the knot last July in their Las Vegas hotel room, surrounded by family and friends, shortly after applying for a marriage license in Clark County, Nevada.

The “Hitman” producer announced their marriage on Twitter, writing, “I love you Faith Renee Jordan,” to which the “One More Chance” singer replied, “I love you back Steven Aaron Jordan.” They also have several images of each other that read, “#DaJordans.”

Stevie still says in his Instagram bio that he’s married to Evans, and he last shared a video of his wife to his page on June 15. As for the Grammy Award-winning singer, she still has her and her husband’s Instagram avatar as her profile photo and posted a video of him on her feed On June 20.

Social media has had a wave of reactions to the couple’s supposed romantic troubled waters. Some believe it has to do with this week’s episode of “LHHATL” where Stevie told his former girlfriend and mother of his child Mimi Faust to give him “a kiss.” Others claimed his ex-girlfriend and “baby mama” Joseline Hernandez tried to warn Evans long ago after she accused him of trying to sleep with her.

“It was only a matter of time. This relationship was for clout but the media wasn’t here for it 🤷🏽‍♀️”

“What’s going on between Stevie and Faith? For better or worst til death #makeitwork.”

“Damn Stevie 🤦🏽‍♀️ Joseline tried to warn you Faith. You deserve better queen I hope you get out that marriage.”

“I’m trying to see how hard you slapped tf out Stevie for asking Mimi for a kiss?! 🧐🤔👀.”

“I love y’all together I pray u make it work.”

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.
