In an interview with EBONY, Waka Flocka and his wife, Tammy Rivera, said that they do their best to ignore the social media trolls but that they will defend their relationship if needed.

“I don’t feel the need to defend it, if I feel like addressing it at the time, then I will,” Tammy said in the interview.

Waka said told EBONY that the ones who disrespect them online almost never act that way if they see him in person.

The rapper went on to say that he is doing their best to set a good example for his step-daughter Charlie. He said that he wants her get the respect she deserves and to accept nothing less.

“That’s the main reason I came back together with her mother, to let her know what a man does. When a man makes mistakes, what a man is supposed to do to admit to that mistake with action and not just words.”
