Mashonda and Swizz Beatz
Before hip hop producer and rapper Swizz Beatz married Alicia Keys, he was married to singer Mashonda. Swizz cheated on Mashonda with Alicia while he was still married. Their relationship became one of hip-hop’s biggest love triangle. On many occasions, Mashonda called Keys a “home wrecker,” who destroyed her family.
Mashonda wrote to keys: “If you are reading this Alicia, let me start by saying, you know what you did. You know the role you played and you know how you contributed to the ending of my marriage. You know that I asked you to step back and let me handle my family issues. Issues that you helped to create… As a woman, I expected so much more from you. I never had intentions on reaching out to you this way but after reading your twits tonight, and the constant disregard, you left me no choice.”
Despite the end result, Swizz and Alicia Keys are now married and have two children together. It’s still an unfortunate situation, but they all seem like one happy family now.
