Shakira recently posted about Bam and Scrappy spending time with her son Kyrie while she was on a work trip. Meanwhile, the major unanswered question seems to be: are Bambi and Scrappy back together? Especially after their recent court-side outing.

A video she shared showed her son eating, sitting on his dad, unbothered! Meanwhile, Lil Scrappy was in the video bragging about his son wanting to chill with daddy!!

“Yall!!! I went to Miami for one day for work so my daughter & @adizthebam held kyrie down. Kyrie hadnt seen me in about 36hrs which is a first! I rushed back thinking he was having a hard time Ÿ˜ Dad picked him up, but when I came to get him, this is how he reacts Ÿ˜‚ It was like he was disappointed! Lmao whyyyyy was he not excited to see me and eager to breast feed?? @reallilscrappy you was way too hype Ÿ™„”

Bam Tells Shakira Hardy “Welcome To The Good Life”

On her Instagram Stories, Bambi shared a video of Kyrie writing on a piece of white paper with pencil, telling him “you doing good, good job hunny.” She tagged Shakira in the post, writing, “We starting early.”Hardy also wrote separatley on IGS that Kyrie did “so well” with Bambi. “I coulda stayed longer. Super grateful.”

In Shakira’s comment section, Bambi added, Welcome to the good life my girl !!! Weekends are now yours Ÿ™ŒŸŸ™ŒŸŸ™ŒŸŸ˜‚Ÿ˜‚Ÿ˜‚,” while Scrap said, “Daddy’s lil guy.” To Bam, Shakira responded, “Girlllll I been praying for this! Lemme go ahead and pre book flights.”

It’s unclear how long Bambi and Shakira have been getting their kids together. Lil Scrappy has five children, Emani with Erica Dixon; Breland, Xylo and Cali with Bambi and Kyrie with Shakira Hardy.

Last Year, Shakira Hardy Blasted Scrappy Over A Birthday Invite

In The Shade Room’s comment section, the roomies applauded Bambi, Shakira and Lil Scrappy for their family vibes. Shakira herself stepped in to say, “Blessed & SUPER GRATEFUL.”Last August, she had a more shady energy for her son’s father after he didn’t extend a birthday party invitation to infant son, Kyrie. At the time, Scrappy was reportedly dating Britney Sims. Hardy seemed to suggest, without naming her, that Sims blocked her invite. “She not even in her own kid’s life,” she wrote on Instagram.

Are Bambi & Lil Scrappy Dating?

By December, video of Lil Scrappy and Bambi at a concert went viral, as the internet started questioning their link-up. Days later, Britney Sims addressed internet speculations that Scrap had left her for Bam. She let the people know: “Nothing can be taken,” from her. Also, she said, “…To be clear , I do the arts and crafts around here œ‚ I dont get left, I do the leaving. ŸŸ”

Amid that, Scrappy had also addressed kicking it with Bambi, writing, “Since it was such a big deal for me and Tha Bam to go watch our favorite singer rock the A, hope this reaches u well, I def love that we can kick it, not be beefing.”

Most recently, on April 25, the coparents sat together court side for the Atlanta Hawks and New York Knicks playoffs game in Atlanta. None of the photos available on Getty Images show Scrappy and Bambi cozy or intimate and it appears he performed after the first quarter of the NBA game.
