It is no secret that rapper Lil Scrappy's mother Momma Dee is very involved in his life. The 57-year-old reality star keeps a very close tab on her son and his family. So when the pandemic began and everybody began spending more time than usual at home, Scrappy and his wife Bambi began having some marital issues. The couple began fighting a lot more than usual. 

When Momma Dee noticed this, she paid closer attention and soon found out that her daughter-in-law was planning on divorcing her son. During the pilot episode of 'VH1 Family Reunion: Love & Hip Hop Edition', she pulled aside fellow 'Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta' star Sierra Gates and confided this in her. Momma Dee informed Sierra that her son's marriage was in trouble and she was determined to fix it and even requested Sierra to help her with it.

Later, Sierra shared what she heard from Momma Dee with Bambi. Bambi was left shocked and speechless when she heard that her mother-in-law was going around gossiping about their marriage. Bambi then explained that she was having some problems in her marriage and pointed out how she had a baby immediately after marrying Scrappy, and another baby recently. She expressed how she was having a hard time striking balance between being a mother and a wife. 

Bambi then confronted Momma Dee for talking about her marriage behind her back with others. In her confessional, Momma Dee explained that Bambi had tapped Scrappy's phone, and found out that he was texting one of his ex-girlfriends, and that was why she was angry and was seeking a divorce.

Momma Dee tried to pacify Bambi by saying that she was only looking out for the couple. Just then Scrappy walked in on their conversation, and when he learned about his mother gossiping about their divorce, he began fuming at her.



 

Fans too were unimpressed with Momma Dee discussing her son's personal life on national television without his knowledge. A fan tweeted, "Mama Dee even if they were getting a divorce it ain’t for the world to know unless they tell it! #LHHFamReunion."

Another fan wrote, "I would’ve been mad at mommadee too your my mother why are you putting out there on tv im getting a divorce?? on some messy shit she fasho was wrong #LHHFamReunion." "Momma dee done messed around and told scrappy and bambi business about they divorce marriage now who done got him in his feelings #LHHFamReunion," commented a fan.
