For those of us who missed Tameka ‘Tiny’ Harris’ and her daughter, Zonnique’s recent appearance on The Wendy Williams Show, let us break down what happened when Wendy did what Wendy does best- kept it real with Tiny and asked what many wanna know about her life.
We’ve watched Tiny and her husband/rapper, T.I., live their lives as open books on television and social media. We’ve also seen their tense times played out in public as well throughout the years. So it wasn’t a shocker when Tiny kept it all the way real with Wendy about everything- from why she and T.I. are really divorcing; to T.I.’s alleged mistress; and yeah…also that time when Tiny got caught windin’ it up on the dance floor with her “friend,” boxing champ Floyd Mayweather. Check out the video (at bottom of page) and details below…
On her marriage problems with T.I.:
“We just cannot keep it together,” she said. “I guess it’s just the entertainment life and everything. It’s just a lot. It is a fast life. They call him a sex symbol, I guess. […] “I think reality TV did put a little strain in it, just because it keeps people in your business. I felt like it’s a family show, it would be cool, but everything turns out to be in the media.”
On if they had open marriage:
“No, we don’t have anything,” she said. “It’s not an agreement. We just were married, and we did what we wanted to do.”
On her beef with T.I.’s reported mistress, Bernice Burgos:
Around the 4:19 mark of the video, Tiny talks about T.I. and Bernice.
“He’s not even with her, first of all. She had nothing to do with whatever was going on with us before anyway. We were already going through whatever we’re going through. She just came in the picture after I filed for a divorce. And the only problem I had with her was… I said what I said. Somebody made a comment about her on my page. I said what I said. She replied. That’s cool, but then you come back with another video speaking on my marriage, which is a no-no. Then you come back with the final video singing my song, and I’m feeling like, okay, you keep coming.”
On telling T.I. to check his alleged mistress:
At about the 5:30 mark, Tiny got a little misty eyed while talking about T.I.’s involvement with his reported mistress.
“First of all, I stepped to him like ‘Don’t she know her place? She’s supposed to be quiet…every woman that’s not the one knows that you’re supposed to be quiet.’ “

Still wishing the best to the Harris family. We hate to see them going through this are keeping our fingers crossed over here that they’ll still be able to work their thing out before their marriage is officially a wrap.
