'Love And Hip Hop Atlanta' Season 5: Tammy Rivera Explains Why She Took Waka Flocka Back, Fans Blast Her [VIDEO]
Tammy Rivera has opened up about why she gave her husband Waka Flocka another chance after the Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star was blasted on social media for cheating.
Rivera took to Snap Chat and spoke on what caused her to stick with the rapper over the weekend.
“I feel like my husband fought for his wife back,” she said. “And I’m gonna fight to make this marriage work; with the help of God and stick to my vows until otherwise.”
She went on to tell viewers, “This ain’t none of y’all business. And I know it’s gonna go past half y’alls heads. But talk to your grandmother or your aunties.”
Still, it was her next phrase that still has fans popping off on Twitter.
“Today’s society is so [messed] up. Everything is disposable. Nothing is worth value anymore. That’s why we as women don’t know our value. We don’t know who we are. We don’t know that we’re queens. We really need to know our values. And that’s why men do half the [things] they do, because they don’t know their value. If they loved themselves they wouldn’t do half the [stuff] they do.”
