Shamea Morton and Kandi Burruss Blasted for Liking Pro-Diddy Post, ‘RHOA’ Fans Say Phaedra Was Not Lying!
Shamea Morton and Kandi Burruss are facing intense backlash after they were seen liking posts in support of Diddy on Instagram following his highly publicized legal battle.
Both women came under scrutiny after fans noticed their interactions with a post from Eboni Elektra, a longtime friend of the late Kim Porter. Porter, who dated Combs, reportedly endured an allegedly abusive relationship with him until 2007. Elektra is also Combs’ cousin, adding another layer of complexity to her defense of him.
The Post That Sparked It All
Shortly after the verdict was announced — a verdict that saw Diddy exonerated on some of the most serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering — Elektra posted a photo of the music mogul with the caption, “PRAISE GOD.” She elaborated further, writing, “GOD’S WILL… is higher than any opinion, mistake, judgment, or gossip. If this is God’s will for Puff/Diddy, then that’s His will. In the end, what we think does not compare to His will.”
For many, the religious framing of her message felt jarring, especially as disturbing footage showing Diddy violently attacking his then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura in a hotel hallway continues to circulate widely. The clip has deeply disturbed fans and reignited conversations around abuse and accountability in the entertainment industry.
Shamea Morton’s History Resurfaces
Shamea Morton’s support, in particular, stunned her followers. Shamea has been candid about her own experiences with domestic violence prior to marrying Gerald Mwangi. Her openness in sharing her story over the years had made her a source of strength and inspiration for many survivors.
Fans questioned her decision to seemingly endorse a post celebrating a man whose violent behavior was captured so clearly. Many took to social media to express their disappointment, highlighting the apparent contradiction between her personal history and her public actions.
Kandi Burruss Faces Renewed Scrutiny
Kandi Burruss, meanwhile, has not been a stranger to controversy during her time on *RHOA*. Over the years, she faced explosive accusations, most notably involving her feud with Phaedra Parks. In one of the franchise’s most shocking moments, Kandi was falsely accused of planning to drug and sexually assault Porsha Williams — allegations she has vehemently denied.
The connection between these past accusations and her perceived support for Diddy has not gone unnoticed by fans. Many felt that, given her experience being on the receiving end of serious allegations, Kandi might have shown more sensitivity around such topics.
“They jumping Kandi for showing support for Diddy as they should bc why would you wanna be associated with that type of person after the stuff you were accused of?” one user commented online.
Patterns of Social Media Support?
This is not the first time Kandi has been criticized for her social media activity. Earlier this year, she showed public support for Todd Chrisley after he received a presidential pardon. Chrisley, known for his reality show Chrisley Knows Best, was convicted of federal tax evasion and bank fraud.
Fans have started to question whether Kandi’s online interactions reflect a larger pattern of aligning with controversial figures. Some called for her to clarify her stance and questioned her judgment in choosing which public figures to support, particularly given her significant platform and influence.
Public Questions and Fan Reactions
Many critics have also questioned the timing of Kandi and Shamea’s support. YouTuber Aaron expressed these frustrations, saying, “Where was y’all at months ago before the trial? Where was y’all at during the trial? If you were in such support of this man or against the trial, why didn’t you say that while the trial was going on?”
The suggestion that both stars stayed silent throughout the highly publicized trial, only to publicly support Diddy after the verdict, has amplified the anger among fans. Critics argue that this timing makes the show of support appear opportunistic rather than authentic.
Moving Forward
As of now, neither Shamea Morton nor Kandi Burruss has publicly addressed the backlash or explained their actions. Both women have long enjoyed devoted fan bases, but this latest controversy has prompted many supporters to reconsider their loyalty.
For now, the silence only seems to be fueling more questions — and more scrutiny.
