As we’ve said before, nothing is stronger than a mother’s love. Well, this is a phrase that reality star Erica Mena truly believes, as she posted a powerful message directed to her son. And it’s probably no coincidence that this came within 24 hours of an equally powerful, but less positive one aimed at her ex. Our bet is that it’s all part of her strategy at come across as the victim.
The former Love & Hip Hop star posted a picture on Instagram of herself with her young son, King, with the two smiling and just being happy to be in each other’s company. The accompanying message outlines Mena’s expectations for her special little man, how she hopes he becomes a good person, that he’s allowed to make mistakes and learn, and that she will always love him and provide him with a place to return to. Some of the highlights of Mena’s extra-long message include, “ I want you to know as I teach you that you’re allowed to cry, that you’re allowed to feel afraid but Never WEAK,” and, “And above all, when you’re older out there, alone and afraid, I want you to know that you always have a safe place to come back to. As your mother I owe you everything.”
This loving message comes within a day of Erica Mena having some harsh words for her ex, rapper Bow Wow, including accusing him of physical abuse! Following their public breakup and Bow Wow saying he was no longer interested in women seeking fame, Mena shot back, saying he abused her and treated King poorly, adding, “I’ve been nice about all this considering all that was done to me physically and the violation to my child as well. Be smart, don’t push me.” There’s no word yet regarding if the police will look into these accusations, but the messy situation between these two stars looks to be far from over!
