Reality show star Tammy Rivera, wife to rapper Waka Flocka Flame, continues to be open and sharing about the couples’ preferences and troubles in the press. The vocal star visited Angela Yee’s Lip Service via FaceTime where they caught up and dished about her married life while she promoted her WEtv reality show Waka & Tammy: What The Flocka.
The pair have had a very public relationship ever since they debuted on VH1’s Love and Hip-Hop: Atlanta back in 2013. While on the show, their new relationship was highlighted, since Wacka at the time was at the height of his career. The rapper’s hits include “O Let’s Do It,” “Hard in the Paint,” and “No Hands,” which peaked at #13 on the Billboard Hot 100. Rivera has also released music, which was also a plot point and a point of contention between the pair on the show.
Waka Flocka Flame eventually had the same problem that most rappers do when they’re on the road – infidelity. The fallout put a strain on the pair’s relationship and it was made into a storyline – obviously – for the reality show. Over the course of the show, the two eventually reconciled and famously eloped, getting married in 2014. Since then, the pair have been inseparable from reality shows for their relationship, having appeared in a number of shows and specials in the unscripted space: Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition (Season 4), Waka and Tammy Tie the Knot, and their current show Waka & Tammy: What The Flocka.
On What The Flocka recently, Waka came under fire for intimating during a couple’s therapy session that his cheating on Tammy made her better. “I actually made her meaner. [Tammy] had no idea what she was up against. It could have made her or broke her…it made her even better than what I thought, he said. I helped her.”
Tammy wasn’t having it, however – responding sharply: “That’s the thing, he thinks he helped me by doing some of the evil and mean things he did to make me meaner, that didn’t help me,” Tammy interjected. “What that did was add insecurities to me and made me not trust your judgment in certain s–t, and made me not trust you in certain ways. It did not help me. You did not have to do that. Life would have done that.”
Now with a more mature view on life and marriage – hopefully because of all the marriage-counseling-type reality shows that the two have endured together – Tammy seems to be the more mature, open-minded part of their very public marriage. Sitting down with Angela Yee for her Lip Service podcast revealed some new parts of Tammy that she felt sharing with the public about her and Flocka’s sex life.
“I’m the more open one, like the more free one. People would think that it’s Waka, but it’s me. [I’d be down for a threesome,] if he would give me one, b—- He won’t give me one!,” said Rivera.
She also shared that she thinks it was selfish of Waka to even refuse – especially considering what he’d done that had threatened their marriage in the past. “I think it’s so selfish, ’cause, ‘N—-, you had your fun. Your whole career you had three and four b—- you had your whole little fun! And I’ve been at home being a good little wife.”
Whether or not it was the therapy that’s given her a new perspective or something else, Tammy’s definitely speaking her mind on what she wants out of her and Waka Flocka Flame’s relationship. She lastly added that she’d be the one choosing the girl if this ever went down.
