Now that their breakup is public information, it seems like the former couple has decided to throw etiquette out the window, posting shady subliminals that seem to be aimed at one another on social media. After some of Yandy’s posts on Instagram went viral, Mendeecees posted two videos of his own, bragging about his single life and insinuating she was the one who pushed for a breakup.
On Monday, Dec. 29, Harris reposted a video from @rulaempire_ about being single, ranting about his “single” looking better than someone else’s.
“How are you mad that my single looks more fun than your single? You the one that wanted to be single first,” the video clip says. “I don’t even know how to be single for real, I’m just over here having fun, I’m just over here doing sh*t. We’re just vibing, and chilling and floating around and you mad! How are you mad about sh*t…and I’m single?”
While Mendeecees didn’t add any of his own commentary to the post, The Shade Room saw him comment “Facts” on the clip.
The second repost also came Monday, with a clip from @jamerblu talking about women stressing out their whole roster, especially their “favorite.”
“Females will have two and three other dudes and stress out her favorite one. Like no b*h spread that sht out. Don’t just give me all the problems.”
Mendeecees was the one who revealed the breakup publicly, while Yandy has yet to comment on it. In the Streetz 94.5 radio show interview, Harris revealed that they’re “not together” and even confirmed they were never legally married.
While she hasn’t spoken directly on the split, Yandy did post some footage from her recent Africa trip prior to Mendeecees’ reposts. In the midst of photos and videos of her with friends, Smith included memes about loyalty, “acting delusional,” and tough times, and her caption began with song lyrics, “Are you done talkin…tell me baby are you done🎶…🥴 🤷🏾♀️”
One of the reposts reads, “i lost respect for you when you knew my whole world was crashing down and still decided to add to the chaos.”
Even though they’ve been broken up for over a year, it seems like the social media shade is just getting started!

Earlier this week, Mendeecees Harris sat down for an interview on Yung Joc & The Streetz Morning Takeover.
During their conversation, the LHHATL star cleared up some misconceptions about his longtime relationship with Yandy Smith, revealing that they were never legally married, despite years of public perception. Harris also said that their relationship is officially over.
According to Mendeecees, while fans watched him and Yandy exchange vows on television, the marriage was never legally binding. That reveal led to the reality star confirming that the relationship has since come to an end.
“We not together. We was never legally married, so [we’re not getting divorce],” he said during the interview.
Mendeecees and Yandy’s relationship was a central storyline throughout multiple seasons of the Love & Hip Hop franchise. Having been together for nearly two decades, fans got a front-row seat to their on-screen wedding, Mendeecees’ past legal issues, and their issues as a longtime couple.
When asked if the marriage viewers saw was “for TV,” he replied:
“Listen, no. I didn’t do it for TV. It was Yandy’s idea,” he began. “In the beginning, I was going through legal battles with courts and fines, and she said, “Let’s not sign the papers.” I was like, all right, cool. Then it kind of just stayed that way. Then we got married again, and we still didn’t sign.”
Mendeecees continued, “If I look back now and see what people go through with divorce, assets, all that, we don’t got to go through none of that. You know what I’m saying? It kind of worked out.”
Mendeecees did not go into detail about what led to the breakup, but he did say that they’ve been separated for a while now.
“I’ve known Yandy for like 20 years. Right now, we’ve probably been split up for over a year,” he said.
News of their split comes shortly after Tamar Braxton was accused of creeping with Mendeecees, which the singer denied.
The songstress, 48, released a statement Tuesday, Dec. 2, denying blogger Funky Dineva’s allegations that she was creeping with Mendeecees Harris the night she “woke up in a pool of blood.”
After noting that she worked on her Heartbreak Retrograde EP throughout the summer and was especially proud of its release, Tamar slammed allegations that the acting she did in her accompanying short film was an actual look at her love life, calling the allegations “hurtful and completely untrue.”
“Let me be clear: this is a lie,” she wrote. “It’s sad that the moment you achieve something meaningful, some people choose to respond with gossip and sensationalism. These rumors don’t just touch me—they touch our families, our kids, and our loved ones, the people who never asked to be dragged into nonsense. I had hoped by now we’d see better from those who claim to report responsibly and love our people.”
She ended by noting that her legal team is now handling the matter.
“As for me, I’m staying focused on what I love: creating, storytelling, and making music and films that matter.”
