'LHHATL' star Tommie Lee's daughter says mom wanted her to abort 7-month baby, Internet calls her 'bad parent'
It's just been quite a few months since reports of former reality star Tomie Lee of 'Love and Hip Hop' fame becoming a grandmother started flowing in. Her 16-year-old daughter Samaria shared on social media that she was expecting her first child. However, Samaria recently made a "shocking revelation" saying her mother asked her to abort her baby while she was seven months pregnant.
While sharing news of her pregnancy on social media in May, she also offered encouragement to other teenagers who were expecting a child at a young age and faced judgment from people around them. She said, "I made my choice to keep my gift from God and live not caring about what anyone else thinks. I am beyond grateful and happy for the people who stuck around to let me know they got me because only God knows it takes a village to raise one child! My life is only going up from here I just have one extra life coming with me and I’m beyond happy for it. And for all the young pregnant women or women with a child let me be your inspiration! It’s okay you will do just fine."
Tommie never opened up about her daughter's pregnancy on social media. But it seems like the family drama is still taking place while spilling its beans in public. Recently, Samaria took to Instagram to make a 'shocking' revelation about her pregnancy. In a series of Instagram stories, she wrote: "Y'all I was just told how my mother and aunt teamed up to try to trick me into having an abortion same aunt that had her first child at 17! And mother at 18. I was told by my mother and aunt herself that she had an abortion at 7 months pregnant and that I should get one because it was for the best!" She went on to say that her mother had supported other family members who had children at a young age but when it came to her own daughter, she didn't show any support. She even said that Tommie didn't talk to her throughout her entire pregnancy, not even to wish her on her birthday.
When the internet got a hold of the news, Tommie started trending on Twitter and people couldn't stop bashing her for what she did to her daughter. One Twitter user said, "The Tommie Lee situation with her daughter is sad. I understand where Tommie is coming from about struggling as a teen mom. But asking someone to get an abortion at 7 months is unacceptable lol." Another posted, "I may understand the point Tommie is making but that girl was already 7 months pregnant, that s**t out of the window now."
Later, Tommie went live on social media and showed her disappointment with the reactions she was getting. "I am very disappointed, I love my daughter and this decision is life-altering, no matter how you flip it but for the most part our relationship took a turn for the absolute worse and I feel for her and I pray for nothing but for the best way they can go and I pray she gets whatever ill will out of her heart right now."
By the end of her live stream, her emotions took a toll on her and she broke into tears. On her social media live, Internet users said, "This is what happens when your mom isn't trying to be a grandma I guess. Smh. It's always disappointing when people talk about their family on social media. Like lady! That is your child." One posted, "Consider the f***ing messenger. If Tommie was a present, compassionate, loving, CONSISTENT parent, she wouldn’t even go on live to talk about this! Who’s mother goes on live to a million strangers to express their disgust in their child? A BAD PARENT, that’s who." Another wrote, "Most the people mad about Tommie are ratchet baby mamas, young teens, or people who come from broken homes themselves and clearly haven’t grown from it. Y’all supporting teen pregnancy is NOT cute. You can be pro-choice but don’t get on here and act like being a teen mom cool."
