A1 Bentley, the Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood star, has had his fair share of drama, from rumors of homosexuality to marital issues. Although he won’t be returning for season 7, there’s still plenty to uncover about his life beyond the reality show. Let’s dive into some lesser-known facts about A1 Bentley.
1. Infidelity and the Summer Bunni Scandal
A1 Bentley found himself in hot water when he was accused of cheating on his wife with serial homewrecker, Summer Bunni. Initially, A1 denied the allegations, claiming they were just colleagues.

Despite this, A1 slapped Ray for disrespecting his wife. Fortunately, the two eventually resolved their differences, with Ray stating that even friends fight.
3. Petty Retaliation and the Safaree Incident
A1’s wife, Lyrica, confessed to sleeping with Safaree, which led A1 to justify his own infidelity with Summer Bunni as retaliation. This tit-for-tat behavior demonstrates a lack of maturity and an inability to handle conflict in a healthy manner.
4. A1’s Blonde Hair Debacle
A1’s decision to swap his dreadlocks for short blonde hair was met with ridicule from fans.

5. Social Media Blockade: Lyrica Cuts Ties

6. Gay Rumors and A1’s Fashion Choices
A1 has faced speculation about his sexuality due to his penchant for dressing in a feminine manner and painting his nails. While some have urged him to come out, A1 has chosen to ignore the rumors. Only time will tell if he follows in the footsteps of other celebrities who have eventually come out after years of denial.
7. The Diaper Debacle: A Disturbing Video
A1’s attempt to create buzz for his song “2 at a Time” backfired when he posted a video of himself and his son wearing diapers and drinking from bottles. Fans found the video disturbing and questioned A1’s mental state.

In March 2018, A1 was filming a video on his wife’s Instagram live when two armed men entered the studio after an intern left. The men forced A1 to put the camera down before robbing him. After reviewing security footage, A1 suspected an inside job and planned to sue the studio.
9. A1’s Mother Marries a Man Younger Than Her Son
Pam Bentley, A1’s mother, married a 23-year-old Nigerian man named Antony Okenwa in September 2018, despite being 52 at the time. Antony is five years younger than A1, proving that age is just a number for Pam.
10. A Secret Elopement and Lingering Drama
A1 and Lyrica chose to elope rather than have a traditional wedding, a decision that angered Lyrica’s mother. While some celebrity couples have found happiness after eloping, A1 and Lyrica’s relationship continues to be plagued by drama and conflict.
