Safaree and Erica Mena announced that their family is growing!

The two announced that they are expecting their second child via Instagram. A few people were displeased with their discussion, and Erica felt the need to jump on her Instagram stories and share her feelings about those with negative opinions. “There’s been mistakes made, immaturely, but a marriage is a marriage—and unfortunately there’s been mishaps. In any marriage, s**t happens. When you’re in the public eye, I think me and my husband have both realized, you know, that things should be kept in.”

She continues, “we’ve got a blessing here and you guys are really trying to be so negative and nasty about it that it really makes me pray. Like, you guys are [so] mean,” Erica says. “Nine times out of 10 it’s people who sleep on mattresses that are on the floor that have this full-on [view] of what’s supposed to be right… Half of you guys can’t even keep a man, let alone get married. Vice-versa for the men. How dare you?”

“I’m really gonna take a moment and just pray for these individuals. And I’m not ranting—I’m just bringing it to the attention [because] we really have to pray for people that we don’t even know in this world… [There are] a lot of people suffering, and they feel good about themselves in these blog comments by just talking disgustingly about other individuals.”

Erica expresses that she’s still new in her marriage, and she’s still figuring it out. “I’m only in one year of marriage—I’m not a pro at this. And like I’ve said, we’ve made some mistakes. But d***! We just announced we’re having another addition. Gosh, be happy you ugly soul. [Be happy] for somebody, if you can’t be happy for yourself.”
