Erica Mena and Bow Wow Shad Moss’ engagement suddenly ended earlier last year, leaving fans confused about what caused the once loving couple to call it quits.

According to Mena, Shad was verbally and physically abusive and disrespected her in front of her son. The reality star took to Twitter to expose the snack size rapper in a series of telling tweets.

Though Shad didn’t mention Erica’s name, he made some childish comments about her at his NYE party.

In a recent interview with GlobalGrind, Mena revealed she quietly moved out of Shad’s home months ago.

“I’m not going to sit there and let my child see me be mistreated by a man,” she said.

She continued, “I could have gone public about our breakup a month ago,” she said. “He does this to make headlines. Just leave me alone, I moved on; why are you still in your feelings? He’s literally posting about Joie to get on my nerves and it’s not working. He’s posting it to f*ck with her head and to try to get a reaction out of me. Listen, I walked away silently. He’s an abuser.”

Mena said she never wanted to put their business out there, but says she deserves peace.

“When it comes to Shad, this is the man I at one point really considered marrying. He is the one I decided to say yes to, but once the mask came off, I realized I had made a bad choice.”
