Tammy Rivera broke down her commitment to marriage in a new interview with the Breakfast Club Monday (May 14th). Rivera, whose new EP Fate dropped late last month, also talked about the fact that she seems to receive more negativity for working things out with Waka Flocka than she would if she had just walked away.
“I get more backlash for working it out with my husband than I did for leaving him, and it’s crazy,” Rivera said. She added that she and her husband are both imperfect, and his actions weren’t justified, but the hardest part is often just explaining their connection to other people.
“I don’t really talk about it because people won’t understand it on the level that I speak on it,” she said. “It was a spiritual battle with my husband, like, I was sent to him. I know that I was sent for a mission and for a reason.” When they first met, Rivera added, Waka Flocka told her “you’re gonna be my wife.” That apparent premonition took her years to fully understand.
“I felt like my marriage was worth fighting for,” she said. “I know the potential of what he had to be.” Elsewhere, Rivera talked infidelity, pettiness, and more. Catch the full interview below:
