Who is Ri Nelson?

Ri Nelson spends a lot of time in the studio singing and composing music. Spari and Ri became friends when Spari assisted Ri in developing new songs at work. They hit it off immediately away and began dating. After eight months, Ri realized Spari was drifting away, and the two split up. The 'Ex on the Beach: Couples' star is still working with Spari. Ri believes the feelings are still present and adds that when they hang out, Spari does not act like a man in a committed relationship. She misses him and is willing to go to the beach to see if they can still be together.

The young artist from Staten Island has earned quite a reputation for herself in the industry. According to her Sound Cloud account, she has worked with a variety of artists and for several producers.



 

Ri's arrival puts Spari in a tight spot

When Ri arrived at the beach, she immediately sat down with Shayla. Shayla, on the other hand, went straight off the bat with, "I haven't heard much about you, as far as how y'all's relationship went and even if there was any relationship type?" Ri instantly corrected her, stating that there was undoubtedly a relationship.

Shayla's confessional reads, "I don't know if they were even dating or not. I don't know if it was a fling or not." She despises the idea that Ri had a significant role in Spari's life. She then compares Ri to a "pass and by moment".

Shayla also mentions that she is wary of Spari making friends with other girls. The pair seemed to disagree on boundaries.

Ri was surprised to find that Spari and Shayla had been dating for nearly two years. She also said that she and Spari were together when he was allegedly dating Shayla. The girls summon Spari for an explanation.



 

'Ex On The Beach: Couples' airs new episodes every Thursday at 9 pm ET on MTV.
