However, Trina later jumped on Instagram to shut down the rumors and explain what was really happening behind the scenes. Trina claimed that she was not “checking” her husband, but rather making sure he was “good” after an alleged altercation. The rapper also accused social media users of creating a “false narrative” surrounding the clip and made it clear that her actions came from concern, not conflict. FYI, Trina and Swurv, who quietly tied the knot in 2024 after years together, have largely kept their relationship private despite public interest in their romance.
