KIRK’S BABY MAMA JASMINE IS NOW IN TROUBLE WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES OVER THEIR SON KANON AND KEEPS ASKING YOU FOR MORE MONEY. ARE YOU ABLE TO STOP ALL THAT?

RASHEEDA:  Me and Kirk have a united front but only a certain amount of things can be deaded. You have to tread a different kind of way when it’s this type of situation with her. I’ve met so many people and heard so many other people’s stories in the same situation, I just have come to realize that you take it all in stride. If you’ve made the decision to move forward and make things work within your marriage and your family, you really got to figure your way through these situations for real. I don’t always have the answers., I am emotional. I am tripping and other times I am good and other times I’m like what the hell is going on?

YOU HAVE EMBRACED HIS CHILD AND NOW WE HEAR THAT JASMINE SAYS KIRK IS STILL TRYING TO GET WITH HER. IF YOU FIND OUT HE IS WILL YOU TAKE HIM BACK?

RASHEEDA:  You don’t know what you’re going to do until you’ve been through it. One thing I learned a lot about is forgiveness. We talk about marriage and relationships and communication and trust. Forgiveness is a huge part of it because I don’t know a marriage that has not needed forgiveness in it.  It takes a level of understanding that and weighing out the goods and the bads and doing whatever you feel in your heart as a woman. It’s easy to let go and move forward and say, forget it. It’s harder to fight. But that person who hurt the other person needs to not verbally talk about what they’re going to do, but really be about their actions. And if they’re really about their actions. you forgave, but you held him accountable

ARE WE GOING TO SEE A LITTLE MOE ABOUT THAT SIZZLING SEX LIFE IN THE NEW SEASON?

RASHEEDA.: Everybody wants to know. But they’re not ready. Folks are just going to have to stay tuned to check it all out.

BAMBI, YOUR EX SCRAPPY IS WOULDN’T EVEN TAKE YOUR HAND WHEN YOU EXTENDED IT IN PEACE IN THE LAST SEASON. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO SEE IN THIS SEASON?

BAMBI:  Hopefully we will see him in a better space and on a road to some sort of recovery. Because even then in that moment, I really didn’t take it personally because everyone has to kind of go through things the way that they have to go through it. And maybe I should not have extended my hand at that moment because he wasn’t ready for that. He wasn’t ready for us to be in the same space and be cordial. So hopefully, we’ll get to see us being able to coexist. I think it’s really important for him and his growth, to be able to coexist with me, the mother of his three children.

WE HEAR YOU HAVE A HANDSOME NEW BOO. TELL US ABOUT HIM? ARE YOU STILL TOGETHER?

BAMBI:  I’m really just kind of a serial dater right now.  I’m not locking one person in. I’m just doing my little thing. But the guy – he’s in music- you’ll see a little bit of me getting back into that dating space with him in the upcoming season.

YOU AND KARLIE WERE BEEFING IN THE LAST SEASON.  ARE Y’ALL GOING TO MAKE UP?

BAMBI:  I’m in a space right now where I hope we can, but I don’t really want to. My thoughts about this are kind of all over the place. Because it’s like thinking about the stuff that has happened, I don’t really want to make up with her. But I’m not opposed to it if we can actually have a civil conversation about it. We’ll see what happens with that.

WHAT’S THE HARDEST PART OF SHARING YOUR LIVES IN PUBLIC?

BAMBI: There’s also a lot that people don’t get to see so they fill in those gaps with whatever they come up with. And that is truly the hardest part. Because it’s like for those few months that we were not on camera, people have no idea what was going on in our real lives so one person says, hey, she did this. Or they did that. And it’s something that will stay with you for years and years and years. Even if its not true.

RASHEEDA I agree with what Bambi says,  We all give each other such a hard time. And we are so quick to ridicule each other. People always seem to forget that all of us are so damn regular. We’re just normal, regular people who go through stuff that y’all just so happen to be watching. But everybody’s so quick to just believe anything. So people put out a lot of false narratives about people. And they stand on it and live on it from a person who doesn’t even know you, who doesn’t even know your life. It used to really bother me but now I’m like ‘Get up. Work. Do what you do. Stay focused. Don’t let people drag you down. Just try to stay as positive as possible. And when you’re down, figure out what you need to do for yourself to help you stay up.

YOU BOTH ARE NOT QUICK TO THROW HANDS AND RASHEEDA YOU’RE OFTEN TRYING TO MAKE THE PEACE BETWEEN PEOPLE.  WHY DID YOU MAKE THAT CHOICE?

RASHEEDA:  As people and as a culture, we really need to be holding each other down. Loving each other. Supporting each other. We really would be a lot further in life if we really did that. Yes. I’m not all great every day. Sometimes I want to be on something BS. Don’t get it twisted. But seriously, , we just need to do better. And I want to see people do better.

BAMBI: I really admire Rashida for her poise. She is somebody who inspires me when it comes to handling situations. I have been known to kind of fly off the handle sometimes. And I feel like as long as you can look at those moments and reflect and say, ‘You know what? I kind of took it too far here.’ Now I have an opportunity to clean this up. Because sometimes you don’t get a second opportunity. And those are the things that we really, truly have to think about.

“Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’s” new season drops tomorrow at 8pm on Paramount+ , MTV VOD, and the Love & Hip Hop channel on Pluto TV.
