Drama alert: Laura Govan is firing shots at Evelyn Lozada over a podcast chat with her ex-husband Gilbert Arenas about child support. In the interview, Arenas claimed he paid six figures monthly, but Govan is calling it all lies on Instagram. The back-and-forth is serving major co-parenting messiness.
Oh honey, the tea is scalding! On December 17, Evelyn Lozada dropped an episode of her podcast 'Drop the Lo' featuring none other than Gilbert Arenas, Laura Govan's ex from 2002 to 2014. The pair share four kids—Izela, Alijah, Hamiley, and Aloni—and Arenas spilled that he allegedly shelled out six figures in child support back in the day. Evelyn, co-hosting with her daughter Shaniece, couldn't believe it, asking if the "crazy amount" would drop post-retirement and straight-up calling "$244,000 a month... insanity." 😲 Arenas kept it real(ish), saying, "There’s never really a coparenting issue where we disagreed on something about the kids. It’s always a redacted issue."
But wait, there's more shade! The teaser clip on December 18 also touched on past drama, with Evelyn recapping how Laura "went in" on her during an October 2024 Carlos King interview. Laura claimed Evelyn "ducked" her in a supermarket, but Evelyn clapped back, saying she'd have greeted her—no beef on her end.
Enter Laura Govan, popping off on Instagram Stories days later. She didn't hold back, dragging Evelyn for allegedly running through "EVERY Big 3" (R&B, MLB, NBA, NFL, rap, you name it) and throwing in wild accusations like STDs or even HIV, all while questioning her audacity. "Let’s keep it cute GOOFY," she wrote to Arenas. Laura set the record straight on the cash, insisting he paid just "$244 dollars with no added zeros" and hashtagging "#TheLiesYouTell Goofy AN." She even alleged her ex has slept with every woman he's interviewed, calling him "corny," and warned, "You better LEAVE ME ALONE BRO, I GOT REAL FACTS! You should be worrying about our children instead of ALL THE LIES YOU TELL!!!!"
The podcast promo promised "no judgement. Just truth," but Laura's calling BS. Is this co-parenting chaos or just exes airing laundry? Spill your thoughts, roomies—will the lies ever stop? 🔥
