Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Stevie J. posted the cutest video this week of his wife and daughter Bonnie Bella having a blast together at their Los Angeles home. He wrote alongside the Instagram post, “We don’t need a crowd. 🖤”

The video showed a makeup-free Evans taking baby Bonnie’s hand as they roller skated around the house. Three-year-old Bonnie looked absolutely adorable in her ballerina shirt and blue tutu skirt that matched her skates.

As of now, they’ve both confirmed that they have joint custody of Bonnie and are focused on co-parenting the child.

As for Evans and Stevie, the couple secretly wed in July 2018 and exchanged their “I dos” in a Las Vegas hotel room, surrounded by their loved ones, after applying for their marriage license in Nevada.

Evans has a total of four children from her prior relationships and Stevie J is the father to six children. The couple seemingly has been enjoying their blended family and often posts family photos.

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.
