Xzavia Opens Up About Wanting A Divorce
Fans got a closer look at Sierra and Xzavia’s marriage on season 13 of ‘Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.’ But the divorce bombshell hit on the March 25 episode when Xzavia told Sierra he wanted out because she never takes accountability, and he was tired of supposedly being her “punching bag.” Sierra disagreed and admitted she’s been depressed throughout their marriage from constant miscarriages and felt they haven’t been on the same page in a while. She feels Xzavia isn’t strong enough for her and said she thinks they got to a point of hating each other. She also said she’s tired of him being out late and trying to act single. Sierra and Xzavia have reportedly been separated since July 2025, and she later filed for divorce in December.
