Erica Mena isn’t holding back. The former Love & Hip Hop star took to social media to address recent drama surrounding her relationship with Safaree Samuels, specifically responding to criticism about their second child together. In a candid video, Erica laid out the facts, discussing everything from her unexpected pregnancy with her son Legend to the challenges of co-parenting with Safaree, whom she claims has been absent from their children’s lives.

Video: 

Erica began by clarifying that she didn’t even know she was pregnant with her second son, Legend, until months into the pregnancy. “With my first son, King, I didn’t find out until I was five months along. The same thing happened with Legend,” she explained, recounting how she went for a routine check-up with her doctor, Dr. Jackie, and was blindsided by the news. “I had no symptoms, I’d just finished my period, and Dr. Jackie told me I was already months along,” she shared. Erica emphasized that the pregnancy wasn’t something she intentionally hid from Safaree, as she informed him just a week after learning herself.

As the video continued, Erica addressed rumors and public criticism over her decision to have a second child with Safaree, despite their marital issues. She pointed out that they were still married and actively trying to work things out at the time, leading to what she called “makeup sex.” Erica firmly stated, “I didn’t give him a second baby—God did.” She also reminded viewers that this was her third child overall and that her children are a blessing, regardless of the circumstances.

The conversation then shifted to Safaree’s involvement—or lack thereof—in their kids’ lives. Erica didn’t hold back, claiming that Safaree has been reluctant to pick up the children or even visit them at school. She revealed that while she handles the bulk of the parenting responsibilities, Safaree spends his time “dancing in Jamaica” or “taking care of another man’s children.” Erica pointed out the hypocrisy, saying, “He’s out here buying Rolexes for other people’s kids, but he won’t even drive 30 minutes to see his own.”

In a raw moment, Erica acknowledged the toll that this situation has taken on her, mentioning the heartbreak she’s endured while also battling postpartum depression. Despite this, she remains resilient, sharing that she often has to bring her kids to set with her while she’s working. “Us women, we make it work,” she said. “If I don’t have child care, my kids are right there on set with me. Nothing has stopped this motion.”

Erica also addressed the nickname the public has given Safaree, implying that he earned it through his own actions. “Y’all called him that based on what you saw. I didn’t have to label him,” she stated. She went on to hint that Safaree might soon try to “explain himself” through a YouTube channel, adding that she wouldn’t be surprised if his mother supported his antics.

Fans quickly weighed in on Erica’s video, with many praising her strength and transparency. While some expressed sympathy for her situation, others criticized her for continuing to air personal grievances in public. However, Erica seemed unbothered by the opinions, making it clear that she’s focused on her kids and moving forward, with or without Safaree’s involvement.

By sharing her side of the story, Erica gave fans a rare look at the challenges she faces as a single mom in the spotlight. As always, she remains unapologetic, determined to push forward and do what’s best for her children.
