Within the trailer for her Carlos King interview, Diamond appeared to be on a thousand while speaking on her ex-fiancé Lil Scrappy and the moms of his children.
With the total sit-down out as of Jan. 9, fans saw a vulnerable side of the Crime Mob rapper. Diamond spoke openly about deciding to have an abortion while dating Scrappy.
Diamond Says An Abortion Felt Like The “Best Decision” For Her At The Time
The procedure took place either before or after she had experienced a “traumatizing” miscarriage at three months pregnant. A tattoo on her hand shows that the miscarried child was speculated to be born on Oct. 26, 2007. She blamed the incident on “relationship” and “industry stress.”
Carlos and the ‘Knuck If You Buck’ star touched on the sensitive topic about 17 minutes into the hour-plus interview. As for having an abortion, Diamond admitted it’s something she’s “not blissful about” and deals with “daily.”
“At the moment, I felt that this was the perfect decision that I felt I used to be making,” Diamond shared. “So, to see women have the option to get pregnant and be on stage, to actually have a relationship and be open about dating, that was so unheard of. You had a boyfriend, you bought pregnant your profession was over. You chop off.”
Though she didn’t name-drop anyone, the Atlanta rapper said someone “in a way” told her to get an abortion. She added that there was “a lot money that was at stake,” on condition that she and Scrap were on the “height of [their] profession.” Diamond added that they were touring six days per week on the time and only got here home on Sundays to re-pack and do all of it another time.
Still, Scrappy allegedly didn’t take the pregnancy’s end too flippantly. Diamond suggested that they’ve spoken about it, and it appears like he’s still indignant along with her behind it.
“He was devastated. He still carries that hurt, he’s still indignant with me in a way for that and allowing the industry to, but you recognize, I used to be afraid, and he was doing his thing. I assumed I could be home with a baby. My profession could be over, he’d just be doing his thing like he was already doing his thing. But I knew that he could be an ideal father. Hands down, we all know he’s an ideal father, he loves his kids. Still, at the tip of the day, every part is left as much as Mommy, you’ll be able to come and go, it’s really left as much as mom to do every part.”
Diamond explained that she’s a really hands-on mother. It’s a parenting method she picked up from her own mom and applies while mothering her seven-year-old Princeton from a distinct relationship. She called her baby the “love of her life” and “best friend.”

Lil Scrappy Responds After Diamond Takes Shots At Erica Dixon
As previously reported, Diamond made waves with the interview trailer after she looked as if it would goal Erica Dixon and Bambi. She revealed that she was the primary pick for the ‘Love & Hip Hop ATL’ debut season before rejecting the offer.
She also questioned why Erica seems overly invested in Scrappy and never the daddy of her twin daughters. This comes amid multiple public and presumed romantic outings between Dixon and Scrappy — from concert and spa dates to bringing in 2024 together.
When Scrappy clapped back, suggesting Diamond was mad that he didn’t want her, she dropped receipts saying otherwise.
He remained mum online after that, and, for now, so have Erica and Bambi.
