As new reports are surfacing in regards to Carl Crawford and his recent arrest for alleged domestic violence, his ex-fiancée Evelyn Lozada has decided to come forward. Last week, the 1501 Certified Entertainment CEO was taken into custody after his ex-girlfriend reportedly told police that when she tried to break up with him, he pulled out a firearm and repeatedly bashed her head against a wall while questioning her over an alleged affair with another man.

According to reports, Carl Crawford is facing 10 years in prison for the alleged assault, and because she shares a child with the former Los Angeles Dodgers star, Evelyn Lozada felt the need to speak up. She has openly spoken up about her domestic violence incident with Chad "Ochocinco" Johnson, and since Crawford's arrest, Evelyn says that people have been trying to change her narrative.
Evelyn stated emphatically that Crawford never put his hands on her, never intimidated her, and never called her out of her name. However, she also stated that she can't speak on what anyone else has experienced with him. "I will always be empathetic to ANYONE who has experienced any form of domestic violence and in NO WAY would I ever undermine anyone else’s alleged experience. That is their story to tell," the reality star penned in a caption to her video. "However, after numerous calls, tweets, DM’s and bloggers claiming that I’ve said that my ex-fiancé, Carl Crawford, intimidated or physically hurt me, I felt I had to speak regarding my relationship with Carl."
"The Carl I’m hearing about lately is not the Carl I personally know. During our 4 Year engagement & while co-parenting our son, Carl has never been violent or threatening. We have a positive relationship," Evelyn Lozada continued. "Again, I take the time to speak on this for my son, who I never want to grow up and feel as if his father hurt his mother in any way. I also do this because I won’t allow bloggers looking for clicks to manipulate MY story and take away from those women who need their true stories heard. There is NO story here and I have no additional comments." Watch her video below.

K. Michelle Has No Reality TV Regrets: "I Don’t Care About Them Girls"
She called her physical altercations “necessary.”
There are plenty of people vying for spots on reality television shows in hopes of expanding their brands. A surefire way to become a well-known figure, and maybe even a celebrity, is to land a position on a popular series. However, not everyone who involves themselves with such platforms is happy with the result, and after watching their bad behaviors, they often regret their reality television features. Not K. Michelle.

While others like Evelyn Lozada and Draya Michele have spoken openly about regretting some of the decisions that they’ve made on reality television, K. Michelle said she wouldn’t take back a thing.
While speaking with Out Loud with Claudia Jordan about hitting Mimi Faust in the face with roses, she said, “I wouldn’t take that back…that was necessary.” The singer also said that she’s never tried to reconcile relationships that went sour. “I don’t care about them girls,” she added saying that those friendships were one-sided. “They were never my friends. They just wanted camera time. One of ’em even said that.”
K. revealed that the only person she’s friends with from Love & Hip Hop is Karli Redd, but Claudia wanted to know about the singer’s ongoing feud with Joseline Hernandez. K. Michelle laughed at the suggestion of her and Joseline collaborating on a song together. When asked to rate Joseline’s rap skills, she simply said, “I’m not here to bash that lady.” Watch her clip below and check out what else she had to say about having her butt injections removed.

Reality star Evelyn Lozada recently declared she’d turned over a new leaf, got baptized, and was done with premarital sex. The longtime Basketball Wives cast member has seen her fair share of scandals over the years, but Evelyn may be retiring from the series now that she’s entering into a new phase of her life.
Earl Gibson III / Stringer / Getty ImagesOn Friday (February 7), Evelyn decided to take a few minutes out of her busy schedule to answer a questions from fans. She revealed that she’s no longer single, although there was no information shared as to who her new beau may be. When asked if she would be returning to Basketball Wives LA next season, she replied, “Most likely no.” Evelyn has left the series before only to return years later, so her participation is always questionable.
Another person asked about her ex-husband Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson. “Do you ever miss Chad?… it honestly seems like he used to make you laugh all the time.” Evelyn replied, “The crying outweighed the laughter & no everyone has moved on.” Despite her unlucky romances, Evelyn also said she’s open to being married again. “Yes!!! This would be my first!” she stated. “Not sure what that other BS was.” Check out just a few of her Q&A clips below.
Chad Ochocinco Co-Hosts Event With OG Chijindu Amid Her Feud With Evelyn Lozada
Evelyn reportedly filed a lawsuit against OG.
Basketball Wives: L.A. fans watched as Evelyn Lozada and OG Chijindu had a fiery blowup during the last season. The two women have been at odds for quite some time, but after OG told Evelyn during an argument that her ex-husband Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson was attracted to her, Evelyn had a bit of a meltdown. OG stated that she and Chad had been texting on and off for years, even when he was with Evelyn. The pair ended as foes, resulting in accusations of colorism and petitions calling for Evelyn to be removed from the series.
Evelyn pulled out receipts to show that she and Chad are friends despite their domestic violence incident years ago as she noted that OG was delusional for believing that her ex would ever desire her. Well, it looks like Chad and OG are continuing to capitalize on their moment by co-hosting the Celebrity Super Slam basketball game in Florida featuring a performance by French Montana.
“? ‘OCHOCiNCO WANTED ME’ ?▪️ TO GUEST HOST THE HOTTEST CELEBRiTY SUPER SLAM CHARiTY EVENT,” OG wrote in the caption to a photo of a flyer she shared on Instagram. Chad replied, “Yes queen yes ???.” Meanwhile, back in October, TMZ reported that Evelyn filed a lawsuit against OG for defamation after OG reportedly called her a “racist bigot.”
