‘What’s Mels Doing Back There?’: Princess Love’s Daughter Steals the Show After Photobombing Her Mom’s Picture

Princess Love’s recent selfie took a turn after she is photobombed by her daughter Melody. On Nov. 9, the “Love and Hip Hop Hollywood” mom posted a photo of herself on Instagram, but her daughter was the true star.

In the photo, Princess lies on the couch with no makeup on and slightly wavy hair as she’s wearing a gray skin-tight jumpsuit and crossing one leg over the other. In the background of the photo Princess’ 2-year-old daughter can be seen bending over as if she is picking something up.

She captions the photo with a simple peace sign.

“Love and Hip Hop Atlanta” star Bambi, who, like Princess, has two kids, commented, “Mood.”

Fans commented on Princess’s beauty calling her “Gorgeous” and “Sooooo pretty.”

Peeping Melody in the back doing her own thing one fan wrote, “It’s the baby in the back for me.”

Someone else noticed too, and asked, “What’s Mels doing back there?.”

“The baby in the back being destructive,” joked another fan.

Melody has been getting quite a bit of attention on her mother’s page lately. Just a week ago, she had fans dying in the comments after mistaking Tupac for her father. She was wearing a black and white T-shirt with a drawing of Tupac on it and, while her mother laughed in the background, she repeatedly tapped on the shirt saying, “da-da.”

Some people came to Melody’s defense, saying they understood how Melody could have perceived the drawing that way.

Princess also has a 10-month-old son, Epik Ray Norwood, with singer and husband Ray J. The two have been married since 2016, but in May, Princess filed for divorce. She later dismissed the case to reconcile with Ray J, only for the “One Wish” singer to file for divorce in September.

It’s not clear what the status of the couple’s relationship is now. It seems that they are co-parenting and may be working on rekindling their relationship, based on their being seen together on Halloween.

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.
