AceShowbiz - Safaree Samuels has offered a long-overdue apology to Lyrica Anderson. Around four years after claiming they hooked up in the past, the ex-boyfriend of Nicki Minaj took to social media to publicly apologize to his former "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" co-star.
"I just saw that LHH special with Hollywood and I just want to make it clear that me & Lyrica have never even came close to messing around," the 41-year-old admitted in a Twitter post shared on Thursday, November 10. "lowkey me & A1 made the whole thing up. We on TV we had a job to do and we did it. That's my brother & sister right der. It's TV tho duh."
"It wasn't was supposed to go as far as it did so just wanna say sorry to you @lyricaanderson because I didn't know it bothered you," he added in a separate tweet. "I'm not gonna lie tho that was the most fun I ever had filming tho. Me & A1 use to be crying [several crying laughing emojis] love y’all."
In 2018, Safaree admitted to Ray J that he had something more than business affairs with Lyrica, who was still married to A1 Bentley. "Like I didn't mean for it to happen, it's just we be talking and we were supposed to get on a song," the rapper claimed back then.
At the time of the cheating allegations, Lyrica was pregnant and A1 as well as his immediate family demanded a paternity test. After it was confirmed that A1 is the father, he reconciled with her. They welcomed their son, Ocean Zion Bentley, on November 30, 2018.
However, in January this year, it was unveiled that Lyrica has filed for divorce from A1. As for Safaree, he finalized his divorce from Erica Mena in September.
