AceShowbiz - Apryl Jones recently gave insight into the terrible breakup between her and rapper Omarion. Speaking to Voyage LA for an interview, the "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" star talked about her ex without directly naming him, detailing her struggle at the time.
"I was in a really terrible space 2016, where I had just had my second child, and my son was only one at the time, and I was going through a terrible breakup with their father," Apryl said. "He decided to leave without explanation and I was forced to have to pick up the pieces of my life."
Apryl went on to say that she "went back to work doing what I graduated school with which was radiation science. I worked at MLK in Watts, CA. I was doing this for about [five or six] months," but quit after she felt "physically my body couldn't take anymore."
"I ended up being sleep deprived and dehydrated from breastfeeding and not taking care of myself since my priority was my children," she shared. The VH1 star added that she had saved enough money to quit her job before partnering with a winery to launch her brand, April Wines.
"It def hasn't been a smooth road. There have been many challenges as I stated before that I feel could have set me back but it pushed me to wanna be better for me and my kids," she recalled. "I had numerous amounts of days where I wanted to give up going through court stuff, dealing with being the only one here in Los Angeles with no family or support, being forced to have to move into a space with two little kids with no explanation because my partner decided he didn’t want his family anymore."
Apryl added the situation led her to living with fear and anxiety. "[I] pushed through [and] didn't play victim. I didn't make excuses. I put my wit into creating and motivating myself," she said.
Following her split from Omarion, Apryl dated his B2K teammate Lil Fizz, much to people's dismay. Their relationship didn't last long though as they split earlier this year.
