‘Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta’ Star Bambi Accused of Child Neglect and Erica Dixon Charged With Child Abuse
A war is brewing between Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star, Adizia “Bambi” Benson, Scrappy’s daughter, Emani, and her mother, Erica Dixon.
The drama started on April 18, after Emani addressed one of her Instagram followers who inquired about Bambi during one of Emani’s IG Lives. In response, Emani responded, “Stop asking me about that lady.” That prompted Bambi to responded with a photo of herself along with the caption, “It’s giving ‘That Lady😍😘.'”
Shortly after Bambi’s clap back, Scrappy’s baby mama, Erica Dixon entered the fray to defend her daughter. She responded with, “You mean ‘That Old Lying A** Lady’ that was in the hot tub with Benzino. Bih you too old to be trying to be petty with my child.” To which Emani responded, “Wasn’t even being petty. But like I said ‘STOP ASKING ME ABOUT THAT LADY😂.’
Erica rebutted, “Yean [you ain’t] gotta explain sh*t you said about goofy looking as h*e. Big Charlie horse from Lamp-chop sing a long ain’t gone do nothing to you.”
Bambi immediately took to Instagram to confront the mother-daughter duo, making serious allegations in the process. Bambi asserts that Emani revealed to her about being a victim of physical abuse by her mother. Bambi asserts that she provided emotional support to Emani during the period when Erica allegedly, “busted her sh*t all those times.” She even provided a police report as proof of the purported abuse.

Bambi added, “Using your grown child for a Love & Hiphop storyline is pathetic. Hang it up! I’m not fighting with y’all. Go fight with your other baby daddy’s wife, girl. The end.”
After Bambi made her scathing claims of abuse, Emani went Live to defend her mother, stating that Erica only reprimanded her for being rude in an isolated case.
The 18-year-old insisted that Bambi is unfit to raise her children that she shares with Scrappy. According to Emani, Bambi’s young daughter suffered hair loss due to poor hygiene and neglect.
