For those that don't know, there's a show about to air (prolly only in the States as we rarely get anything over here...) March 14th called 'Love And Hip Hop', the reality show features Swizz Beats ex missus MaShonda, ex G Unit member Olivia, model turned rapper Somaya Reece and Jim Jones' missus Chrissy. Peep the trailer...
MaShonda recently took to her website to write an open letter In an open letter, which went a lil' sumthin' like this-
As I reflect on my life, I realize how truly blessed I am. Not only am I the proud mother of my 4-year son Kasseem, I also now have a beautiful blended family to share in his love, development and overall health as a young man.
As we grow and mature as women, even through break-ups and sometimes divorce, we realize that none of these things compare to the love we have for our children. As a mother, Kasseem’s happiness is the single most important thing in my life. It took some time, but I now realize that even my former husband and his new wife, are my partners in this wonderful journey.
When the television show debuts in less than two weeks, you will witness a time in our lives when emotions were extremely high. It is based on where we were emotionally at that time.
Since then, we have grown and matured for the sake of our children, but more importantly, because it is the right thing to do.
In life, you never know how you will react to certain challenges. A person’s true character however, we’ve all learned, is not based on what happens to us in life, but how we respond.
Swizz is an amazing father. When I look into Kasseem’s eyes, I see the joy in his heart by having such a wonderful, blended family that loves him so much. As this blended family of ours continues to grow, I look forward to the months and years ahead raising our children together as one.
The future is bright and all of our experiences as a family have gotten us to this wonderful point in our lives.
“I sustain myself with the love of family.” — Maya Angelou
Onward and upward,
MaShonda
Although this sounds lovely, I have a feeling a few 'issues' will be raised during the series. I'm not usually one to follow shows online, but this one may be the exception.
Either way it's good to see that they can all be adult about the situation!
Let's join hands and sing... 'I believe the children are the future...'
