Rumors of marital trouble had been plaguing Toya and MeMpHiTz for some time before Mrs. Wright confirmed earlier this year that unknown issues concerning her husband had taken their toll on their marriage. Now Toya has revealed details about her marital issues and is claiming that K. Michelle’s abuse accusations damaged her marriage.
Toya spoke about her marriage in a recent interview with NecoleBitchie.com, in which she confirmed that she and MeMpHiTz are separated.
“The current status of me and my husband [is] we are separated at the moment. And, we’re just — everybody has their marital issues. And right now, you know, we’re separated,” Toya explained.
As fans of the couple will remember, MeMpHiTz was once K. Michelle’s manager and boyfriend, and during her time on “Love & Hip Hop Atlanta” she accused him of beating her and stealing the money she received from her former record label.
According to Toya, the accusations and subsequent lawsuit with K. Michelle and Viacom have left MeMpHiTz a changed man — and not for the better.
“I mean, what is going on with my husband, like I said when I spoke on it, is bigger than me. Mickey has been going through something for the last few years since the whole lawsuit thing against his ex [K. Michelle] and Viacom and it really took a toll on him and it caused him to be a different person. So I think that, going through all of those things, and having all of that stress and the world looking at you one way as a ‘woman beater’ and person that steals someone’s money. It’s hard for you to get back into your industry when you had a career and not [just] a job and somebody defames your character. I mean, it’s a lot to deal with day to day,” Toya said.
