‘That Was Low’: ‘LHHNY’ Fans Slam Yandy Smith for Taking a Jab at Chrissy Lampkin’s Nonexistent Motherhood

It seems Yandy Smith-Harris is in the hot seat with some “Love and Hip Hop: New York” viewers this week.

The television personality made a few remarks about her foe Chrissy Lampkin not being a mother, which some fans took offense to. The last time the two co-stars met they got into a heated argument that led to Lampkin threatening to slap the entrepreneur.

After taking some time to cool down, the ladies decided to meet again to discuss their existing beef with each other, along with a few business dealings. On Monday night’s episode, Smith-Harris confronted Lampkin about trying to “stop” her money. Lampkin’s business and real estate partner Greg apparently refused to do business with Smith-Harris because of her and Lampkin’s bad blood.

Lampkin felt like Smith-Harris disrespected her longtime fiancé Jim Jones, whom Smith-Harris was a publicist for in 2010, and because of that she didn’t want anyone from her team working with Smith-Harris.

The former publicist had an issue with Lampkin supposedly getting in the way of her making money and claimed it also affected her kids. She told Lampkin, “When I work, it’s to feed kids, I got mouths to feed.”

Lampkin responded, “Well, I feed grownups.”

Clearly upset and angry, Smith-Harris took to her confessional and added, “You not hating on me, you hating on my children, but I guess someone that doesn’t have any of her own wouldn’t know how that feels or what that’s like.”

Many “LHHNY” viewers felt Smith-Harris’ comments were disrespectful.

“Yandy that was a low blow about her not having kids. Chrissy is gunna whoop yandys ass at the reunion 😭😭😭 she always talks greasy behind chrissys back! Like b–ch keep that same energy”

“That low blow about Chrissy not having kids was super gross & I hope Chrissy whoops her ass over it!”

“Yandy stay talking shyt 1 you gona say she ain’t got kids so she wouldn’t know then you gona call her the help 🤔 why didn’t you say that to her face”

Other folks defended Smith-Harris’ remarks about Lampkin.

“Yandy said what she said! Chrissy taking food out these kids mouths cuz you mad at they mama. Girl stop f–king up people money tf”

“She took food out Yandy kids mouth that’s low asf so oh well”

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.
