Romeo Miller Quits "Growing Up Hip Hop" Over 'Fake Love Triangle'
Dame Dash Suing Ex-Wife Rachel Roy For Fraud
For those of you who may be keeping up with Growing Up Hip Hop, it's obvious that Romeo Miller has changed this season. Since the series launched in 2016 on WeTV, much of Romeo's storyline has been focused on a potential bud- ding romance between him and Angela Simmons. This year, however, the pair aren't friends, and while Romeo has continu- ously taken to social media to come against how he's being portrayed on Growing Up Hip Hop, the young rap mogul can't seem to dodge criticism from the public.
Romeo acts as an executive producer of the show, but ac- cording to an exclusive reportby TheJasmineBRAND, Romeo has quit the series. The outlet states they've spoken to a source who revealed Romeo and the

production crew have been at odds. "Romeo nor his father (Master P) would never go against their morals for money for any network," the person re- portedly said. "He hasn’t been on much of this season and is fo- cusing on his many businesses, career and his love life with new
girlfriend. Romeo has nothing against the cast, they’re just growing apart and he rather ex- plore the truth not a fake love triangle that the network is drag- ging out.”
Over on his Instagram pro- file, Romeo removed the series from his list of current projects. About an hour ago he wrote a lengthy caption to promote MTV's Ex on the Beach, a show Romeo has been a host of since 2018. "I still remember when I left to film my MTV show @ex- onthebeach in New Zealand. It was a last minute decision and I had to clear my entire schedule including Co hosting GMA for the month," Romeo wrote. "I was on my best training regime to date, it was finally summer,the girl I liked started showing interest and my beard started to finally grow in ha."
NEW YORK, NY – Music mogul and Roc-A-Wear co- founder Dame Dash is report- edly accusing his ex-wife Rachel Roy of hoarding profits from her Rachel Roy Brand of clothes in a new lawsuit.
According to documents ob- tained by TMZ, Dash says Rachel Roy Brand is a multi- million dollar empire sold in Bloomingdales and similar de- partment stores but she con- spired with several of the company’s financers to withhold his share of the profits, alleging they “manipulated, diverted, misappropriated, transferred, concealed and embezzled funds.”
A 2014 incident claims a roy- alty payment of $175,000 was withheld while in 2015, a similar accusation was made regarding $200,000. Dash also says he verbally agreed to a $1 million

buyout — that was never hon- ored.
The former couple were mar- ried in 2005 and seeing that the company was started in 2008 while they were still legally to- gether, Dash says he’s entitled to royalties.
He’s suing for an undisclosed amount of money, depending on the accuracy of their records.
