In a recent Instagram Live session, Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta stars Lil Scrappy and Bambi Benson took to social media to clear rumors. Specifically, they addressed ongoing speculation about their relationship status. The pair, who were married from 2017 to 2023, share three children. Xylo, Breland, and Cali. However, they used the opportunity to clarify their current relationship and about their roles on the show.
Following their divorce last year, Lil Scrappy and Bambi Benson have continued to co-parent their children and maintain a civil relationship. During the live stream, both reiterated their commitment to effectively co-parenting, dismissing rumors about any potential animosity between them. They also confirmed that neither of them would be leaving the Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta series, where they have been regulars for over a decade.
A significant point of discussion was a fan’s claim that the network allegedly wanted to orchestrate drama to boost show ratings. Lil Scrappy denied these rumors, stating that their separation was a natural progression rather than a manufactured storyline. “We always had to go our separate ways, and MTV did not ‘give a f*ck,'” Scrappy said. Furthermore, he dismissed any allegations that the network was involved in their personal matters.

Lil Scrappy and Bambi clear the rumors
Throughout the live session, the former couple maintained a friendly and lighthearted tone. They laughed and joked with one another. Moreover, this positive interaction was reassuring to fans who have followed their relationship through the ups and downs documented on the show.
Recent developments in their personal lives have also attracted attention. Lil Scrappy has been linked to his ex, Erica Dixon, following his split with Bambi. Dixon, a former Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta cast member who returned to the show in a limited role in 2018, had caused some drama after posting images of Scrappy and Bambi’s children on social media. Bambi subsequently filed a court order in April, citing a violation of their divorce agreement. Although the court documents did not name Dixon, fans quickly connected the dots.
However, despite the personal drama, the pair recently attended a party together, which led to speculation about a possible reconciliation. However, Bambi has made it clear that they are not back in a relationship.
Musically, Lil Scrappy has not released new material in nearly six years, focusing instead on his role as a series regular on the show.
