Adiz “Bambi” Benson is opening up about her co-parenting relationship with her ex-husband, Lil Scrappy.
During a recent episode of the ‘Relationships Matter’ podcast, the Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star revealed that the situation is challenging.
“It’s hard because he has taken me back to court. Like we only got divorced six months ago,” she said. “Because I wrote a children’s book and I used the likeness of my children in the book, so it’s very petty.”
She continued, “So when he bashes me on social media and when he goes on these blogs and these podcasts and do all these things, of course, it is a little hurtful. But then I’m just like me going back and forth with him on social media would not be conducive to me doing what’s in the best interest of my kids. So I’m not going to be nasty because I just don’t have that energy in me at all.”
While Bambi maintains that Scrappy bashes her, he took to Instagram to say otherwise. “She always acts like a victim but God and time will show the real. I never bash her I just tell my side and she hates that,” he commented under a video clip of the podcast
Despite their disagreements, Adiz is focused on maintaining a healthy relationship for the sake of their children. In a previous interview, she disclosed that they’ve adopted what she terms “parallel parenting.”
“For me, parallel parenting is just everything that we communicate about, it is very matter of fact. It’s about the kids and that’s it. It’s nothing outside of that,” she explained.
Bambi also shared that she harbors no ill will toward her ex. “I want him to be the best version of himself for our kids,” she says. “I want my kids to be able to look at their dad like, you know, he’s their hero.”
Bambi and Scrappy share three kids together- Breland, Xylo, and Cali Richardson.
