“A wise woman builds her house while a foolish one breaks it. Mama, don’t allow other people, Ashley’s haters, to get to your head. They don’t love you; they just hate your daughter, hence they keep hyping you. I pray that one day God restores your family.”

“Notice how your fans are not here today to defend you or even engage? You gave them what they wanted while they go in their groups to laugh at your ‘dysfunctional family’😭
