Vado has issued an apology for his violent attack on Tahiry, but it comes with a caveat. After a clip of the incident from WE tv’s Marriage Boot Camp: Hip Hop Edition went viral, the Harlem-bred rapper expressed remorse for his actions yet blamed her for provoking him.
“Nobody’s da victim we both were wrong doin me more because I’m a Man dat tried to take da better route but couldn’t once it was no apology n continuous of disrespect I lost it n went out like a Str8 Sucka,” he wrote on Instagram. “I apologize to all women once again but ladies please keep y’all hands to y’all selves #UsToo.”
The disrespect mentioned by Vado referred to Tahiry throwing apples at him on the show. That heated interaction preceded the choking incident, which occurred during a sitdown with fellow cast members of Marriage Boot Camp.
Video of Vado grabbing Tahiry’s throat spread via social media on Wednesday (July 29). The clip going viral prompted a statement from Tahiry, who insisted the altercation wasn’t staged for reality television.
Tahiry 'Devastated' After Vado's Violent Incident Goes Viral
“First let me say that I’m devastated that this will be shown for the world to see, but I fully understand that I have chosen to live my life (good… bad… and ugly) in front of the camera,” she wrote on Instagram. “Let me be CLEAR for all the people that are saying that this was ‘scripted’ it is NOT!”
She added, “As a woman that has already suffered physical abuse at the hands of a man why would I ever want to relive that? There is no check big enough for me to EVER play like that!”

Typical obnoxious behavior and attitude by black women and wonder why they’re being disrespected..
that bashing black women bullshit isn’t necessary and Tahiry is a Latina. So you’re loud AND wrong.
All is fair in love and war. Tahiry was complicit in whatever went on but the silence on her role in it is deafening. The producers have deliberately made no effort to reprimand her or made mention of it possibly for ratings. I feel for Vado because he dealing with the double standard that exists when it comes to dealing with domestic abuse in society.
Fuck that be a man, and kick that bitch to the curb for being ultra disrespectful…just don’t go for her neck on camera in front of an audience, no excuse man
Tahiry was extremely wrong for her behavior towards Vado. He tried not to respond physically but, eventually emotions got the best of him. I am not defending what he did, but it’s deeper than he should be a man. She didn’t act as a lady. Both need anger management.
We’ve been watching them for a while . Time is not on their side.
Baseball throws an object at the man’s face? Now we get the full picture! It looked fake because he didn’t go all full power on her. Props for not smashing her bro!
Let Meg the Stallion tell it and Tahiry’s “unprotected” GTFOH! she (Tahiry) needs to be held responsible for her part in it. She provoked him. To blame Vado is like starting a fire in the forest…then blaming the forest for being on fire.
They both abusive towards each other, so seem like they both know what they want lol
