Oct, 29 2014 | Written by ATLien

NEWSFLASH! Benzino and his lady love Althea Heart are no longer a part of the cast of Love & Hop Hop Atlanta.

Season 3 of the reality show had been particularly tumultious and when tensions rose during the reunion show several of the cast members felt the wrath of a reportedly ‘coked out’ Joseline Hernandez and Stevie J.

[FLASHBACK: LHHATL Season 3 Reunion (Part 1) (Part 2) (Part 3)]

There’s been speculation for months about Benzino’s return, especially since it’s been rumored that Thi-Thi filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against popular franchise after the fight.

[SIDEBAR: I heard some time ago that Atlanta’s own DJ Holiday could be up next to fill Benzino’s reality show spot… but you didn’t hear that from me.]
