TI and Tiny Harris Have Paused Production on Their Reality Show Following Abuse Allegations
MTV has suspended the production of celebrity couple T.I. and Tiny Harris's reality television show following allegations of abuse made against them by Sabrina Peterson.
Rapper T.I. and his wife, Tiny Harris's reality television show, "T.I & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle," has been suspended by MTV. This comes as the couple continues to dispute sexual abuse accusations made against them.
In a statement, MTV said they are aware of the allegations made against T.I. and Tiny by Sabrina Peterson. They maintained that while the allegations are unconnected to the show, they have reached out to the couple, local, and state officials.

Therefore, due to the allegations' serious nature, the entertainment network deemed it fit to suspend the show's production to gather more information.
T.I. and Tiny began filming for the fourth season of the reality television show in December. Efforts to get a representative of the couple proved futile.
It would be recalled that Peterson came forward with several claims against T.I. and Tiny in an Instagram video post.
Tiny reacted to the post and warned her to stop harassing her family, adding that she is strange. T.I. and Tiny's representative also addressed the allegations, denying them in their entirety.
In the post's caption, he said they vehemently deny all the disgusting, anonymous allegations.
The representative also said the Harrises have had difficulty with Peterson for over a decade and would take the matter very seriously if the allegations do not come to an end. The rep further said the couple would take appropriate legal action.
T.I. also spoke about the allegations in a video post on his Instagram page, saying it had been tough for him to stay quiet amid all that had transpired and the egregious allegations against him and Tiny.
He implied that the people behind the allegations only want to lure him and his family into calling them liars, leading to a civil suit. In the post's caption, he said they vehemently deny all the "disgusting, anonymous allegations."
Their fans would be hoping T.I. and Tiny can absolve themselves of these allegations and prove their innocence. These fans have grown in love watching them display family fun goals on their reality show and via social media.
T.I. and Tiny share a uniquely blended family of eight children and welcomed the last of their kids, a daughter named Heiress, in March 2016.
Tiny is exceptionally proud of her husband and how he has held down their blended family and paid tribute to him on Father's Day in 2020. Hopefully, the couple will overcome this setback and come back stronger.
