Aisha Atkins Ascent to Fame
After the publication of his debut album ‘Venni Vetti Vecci’ in 1999, rapper Jeffrey Bruce Atkins became well-known, while Aisha Atkins, his high school girlfriend, gained prominence as the mother of his kid. The main reason for their continued media attention throughout the course of the decade was the several scandals involving her husband. In late 2015, the pair launched their own MTV reality series called “Follow The Rules.” She has been active on social media lately, frequently showing up on her and her husband’s Instagram account.

Relationship with Atkins, Jeffrey Bruce
When Aisha Atkins was fourteen years old, she went to school with Jeffrey Bruce Atkins, who would eventually become her husband. According to reports, the two started dating in 1994, and she soon became pregnant with their first kid. The next year, she gave birth to their only child, Brittney Atkins. In 2000, the couple welcomed Jeffrey Jr. Atkins, a son, as their second child. On April 14, 2001, the long-term couple decided to finally get married after having two children together. Jordan Atkins, a boy, was her third child and her husband’s born in 2005. Her spouse simply identified as a Christian, having spent the majority of his boyhood as a Jehovah’s Witness. When he was promoting the film “I’m in Love with a Church Girl” in 2013, he got baptized, and he and Aisha both formally became Christians. At the moment, the couple resides in Bergen, New Jersey, with their kids. ‘Ish’ is the nickname her husband uses for her.
Disputes and Scandals of Aisha Atkins
Jeffrey Bruce Atkins, the spouse of Aisha Atkins, has encountered legal issues multiple times in the 2000s. He was given a $1,200 fine for assaulting a man in Toronto in 2003. In 2004, he was the subject of an investigation over a dispute that resulted in a shooting outside a nightclub party that Jeffrey Bruce Atkins and Leon Richardson had thrown. He was also arrested in 2004 for carrying marijuana and driving with a suspended license. But his arrest in July 2007—along with Lil Wayne and Don Rhys—on allegations of drug and gun possession was the event that rocked the family the most. On December 13, 2010, he entered a guilty plea to attempted possession of a weapon after the court dismissed his contention that the gun was evidence obtained illegally. He was given a two-year jail sentence.
June 2011 saw Jeffrey Bruce Atkins start serving his time in Rikers Island; however, he was subsequently sent to a state prison in Upstate New York. He was sentenced to an extra 28 months in prison in July for tax evasion totaling more than $3 million from 2004 to 2006. After his initial release from state prison on February 21, 2013, he was brought into federal custody right away for a further six months of incarceration. On May 7, 2013, he was eventually freed early from prison. Aisha, who remained by her husband and encouraged their mothers and their kids, was embroiled in yet another scandal following the media’s dissemination of multiple allegations of infidelity regarding her spouse. Certain sources purportedly documented his gay relationship with a prisoner, whilst other claims focused on his continuous association with writer Karrine Steffans. In an interview with “TMZ,” Aisha denied some of the claims and mentioned that, despite the nine-hour commute each way, she still saw her husband every week. Another report, published in 2013, stated that he was moving away from his family to live with a prison cellmate after his release. To put an end to the accusations, he not only refuted them but also later shared an Instagram photo of them cuddling.
