Fans have lived for Evelyn Lozada’s fiery moments on “Basketball Wives” since its first season in Miami, but that could all come to an end.
While on a flight to New York, Lozada answered questions from fans, one of them being whether will she return to the long-running franchise. Her response was “Most likely no 😏.”
On Instagram, people had a lot to say but mostly assumed that another cast mate may be the cause for Lozada’s possible departure.
“She’ll sit out a season to give Shaunie’s fraud ass time to find a way to get ‘rid of OG”
“She sick about that OG situation, it’ll be okay 😭”
During season 9, tensions between Lozada and cast member Ogom “O.G.” Chijindu came to a head when the former women’s pro football player claimed Lozada’s ex, Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson, was wooing her in her Twitter messages in 2011. At the time, Lozada and the former NFL standout were engaged.
While in Costa Rica, Chijindu and the “Livin Lozada” star found themselves involved in a dispute over Johnson’s communication with O.G. Although both women provided “receipts” of flirty conversations, the argument ultimately ended with the race card being pulled.
“Chad wants to be with a black woman. You’re not black. You can gel your hair down as much as you want, you can say n—a as much as you want,” yelled Chijindu.
The drama between the two ladies boiled over onto social media, where Lozada was called a racist bigot. As a response, Lozada sought legal action in petitioning for a restraining order against O.G., claiming her cast mate’s mental state was a concern, a petition that was later denied. She also tried suing Chijindu for defamation.
Whether she returns to the franchise is unknown, but fans believe the veteran reality TV star is open to staying in front of the camera.
“I think she’s gonna come back”
