The recently aired episode of 'Love & Hip Hop: Secrets Unlocked' featured the reality stars spilling some juicy secrets about their lives and their co-stars' lives. Cyn Santana, of 'Love & Hip Hop: New York' franchise kicked off the four-part exclusive special by answering the host Kendall Kyndall's question about how things were at her end. While revealing that she dropped her debut EP 'Redirected Energy' recently, the reality star shared that she was over the moon with how things have turned out lately. She explained how getting her breast reduction surgery lifted a huge weight off her both literally and figuratively and how she was looking forward to living her life to the fullest.

Kendall then asked Cyn what we have all been curious to know about- her current relationship with her baby daddy- Joe Budden. When we last saw the couple on 'LHHNY' things weren't great between the couple, as they were still struggling to strike a balance while co-parenting their son Lexington Budden. Joe made several attempts to speak to Cyn alone to make co-parenting their son a bit easier. But Cyn was reluctant to meet the podcast host alone, as she feared for her safety. She reminded him how he dragged her and threw her and their son out of his home.

Eventually the couple did end up meeting, but things didn't go as planned. So, it left fans wondering if the couple managed to work things out between themselves for their son's sake. Turns out, they did. Cyn revealed on the show that Joe and she were happily co-parenting their son and shot down any thoughts of them rekindling, by declaring that she was enjoying her single status. However, the reality star made a request to her fellow co-stars to find her a partner and reminded them that it needn't necessarily be a man, as she is also interested in women.

Cyn didn't have too wait too long to find suitors, for Karlie Redd of 'Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta' fame immediately began shooting her shot at Cyn. Karlie declared that she would love to get together with Cyn, while the 'LHHNY' star was surprised on discovering that Karlie was interested in women. Unfortunately, the romance was cut-short even before it even began as Kendall firmly asked Karlie to stay single and enjoy her life. 

'Love & Hip Hop: Secrets Unlocked' airs every Monday at 8/7c only on VH1.
