According to Saweetie in an interview with Page Six, the incident took place over a year ago. “This unfortunate incident happened a year ago, we have reconciled since then and moved past this particular disagreement. But, there were simply too many other hurdles to overcome in our relationship and we have both since moved on,” she said.
