When you hear the ways in which B2K member Fizz stepped up to be a support for “friend” Apryl Jones when she went through her breakup with his bandmate Omarion, it does sound commendable. He was there for her when her family couldn’t be (she lives in LA and they are in Chicago), and he gave her a break, even going so far as to watch her two children for her when she needed a mental health break. As Apryl has made clear, in addition to her mother and stepfather in Monday night’s episode of Love and Hip Hop Hollywood, he “saved” her during some truly dark moments of drinking and depression when she felt like she was “dying.”
But as commendable as it sounds to some (including Apryl’s friend and co-star Paris Phillips), it doesn’t impress others much. The same compassion and support that Fizz offered Apryl during her time of need, many have said he should have extended to Moniece Slaughter, the mother of his son, Kamron.
She has long claimed that he didn’t support her during her pregnancy and through her struggles with her mental health. She has maintained that whether it’s been by allowing the women he dates to disrespect her or just not supporting her when she was going through things, Fizz has always left her out to dry, which is interesting considering the lengths he’s gone to protect Apryl.
“Damn. I was dying too. BECAUSE OF DREUX!” she wrote on social media last week in response to Apryl’s comments about Fizz helping her. “Not sleeping. Not eating. Depressed. Not drinking my life away. But definitely drowning in tears out of desperate [sic] for the disrespect to stop.”
She noted that she recently had a nervous breakdown that she reached out to him about. She claims he didn’t care.
“I had to call Apryl to get a hold of him. When she put him on the phone and I said I was struggling and wasn’t sure how I was gonna make it through my week with kam and asked for their help. He told me figure [sic] out. Pull it together it was my week. Call my parents. And hung up,” she said. “Called to say I was trying to check into an inpatient depression behavioral center. He said great. Why are you calling. We have nothing to talk about. And hung up in my face. Then text me and told me he doesn’t care what happened to me.”
Knowing the lack of unity these two have when it comes to co-parenting or even just showing that they care for one another, or better yet, that he cares anything about her well-being, has many LHHH viewers calling Fizz a hypocrite. One could say that the same way he felt Omarion abandoned Apryl, he did the same to Moniece…
