G Herbo Responds to Ari Fletcher’s ‘Bad Father’ Claims
G Herbo shares Yosohn with popular social media influencer and reality star Ari Fletcher. Fletcher is one of the cast members of the reality show, The Impact ATL. During a recent episode, she expressed her frustration with her rap star baby daddy for leaving Yosohn’s birthday party early and missing his graduation altogether. Because of this, she referred to the “Swervo” creator as a “bad father.”
During a recent appearance on BET’s For The Fellas he responded to those comments. Herbo noted that it was just a moment of frustration for Fletcher and understood that she didn’t mean it.
“She doesn’t mean it at all,” G Herbo said. “It’s no way that you really feel like I’m a bad father. I’m too active in my kids’ lives. I feel like she was just probably frustrated.”
Herbo also added context to the situation. He explained that he couldn’t be at Yosohn’s graduation because it was on the same day as his daughter Essex’s first birthday. And he had to split his time between both events.
“She said that kind of to get under my skin for real. ‘Cause she felt a way,” he added. “When that happened, that was my son’s graduation. He graduated from preschool. But that was also my daughter’s first birthday. So I had to be in both places. I was in two places at once.”
Herbo also added that a key in his and Fletcher’s success in co-parenting has been in large part due to their increased communication. Including the “uncomfortable conversations.”
“Communication was, like, the best thing for us,” he continued. “A lot of times, it’s just the uncomfortable conversation that got to be had. A lot of times, we as adults, avoid those uncomfortable conversations. I stopped doing that, and it was beneficial”
