Safaree Samuels and Erica Mena’s marriage appears to be in a very rocky place. Two weeks ago, the couple stopped following each other on Instagram, and Erica changed her name on the social media platform from “Erica Mena Samuels” to just “Erica Mena.”
But the couple seemed to have gotten through that rough patch – and last week, it appeared that they were back together. They posted this video, showing themselves as a happy couple.
But now a new image showing Erica with a busted lip is causing people to speculate whether there could have been domestic violence going on in their home.
Safaree came out quickly to dispel the rumors. He says Erica’s lip was busted because she was “lit” and accidentally hurt herself. As of now, MTO News has no reason to believe that anything happened between them- other than what Safaree says.

But keep in mind that both Erica and Safaree have been accused in the past, of being violent with a partner. In 2011, rap superstar Nicki Minaj accused Safaree of assaulting her – during a 9-1-1 call.
That said, Nicki never pressed charges on Safaree, and Safaree later told interviewers that Nicki wasn’t telling the truth during the call.
