VH1's Love & Hip Hop Atlanta star Mimi Faust implied that she is "free" after her boyfriend and sex tape co-star, Nikko Smith, confessed rumors that he's married to another woman are more than just gossip.

She shared a picture with her more than 1 million followers on Instagram. The picture captures a moment in which Faust was swinging her hair as she got out of the water. She kept the caption of the serene picture simple and wrote, "Free."

The picture came just before the latest episode of the hit show aired Monday night. In the episode, Faust confronted Smith about speculation she read on blogs that he was married.

She told him, "I'm so exhausted from everything that is going on. And I really need to have a heart to heart with you. I've been getting hit up left and right about something on Media Take Out about you being married. Is there any truth, validity, anything?"

Smith didn't seem fazed by the question but simply responded, "Now that you ask, yes it is."

The scene came right at the end of the episode, so fans will have to wait until next Monday to see Smith's reasoning as well as Faust's reaction.

It might be safe to say that it won't be a pretty one as this season has certainly been rocky for Faust. She became an overnight sex tape sensation; just weeks later her father passed away after he suffered a stroke.

Love & Hip Hop Atlanta airs Mondays at 8/7c.
