Remy responded sharply to the public commentary. “Who I married in 2008, that’s not who this is now. Now he’s a wife,” she said during her livestream.

She also made it clear she’s ready to end things legally and is offering no resistance. “Papoose, you have my lawyer’s information. If you can’t afford to retain a lawyer… I told you I’ll pay for [the divorce],” she added.

Remy emphasized she’s not seeking child support or material things. “I want nothing,” she said. “There should be no ill feelings.” She called Shields’ “tough talk” unnecessary and urged for peace instead of public shade.

What’s Next for Remy Ma and Papoose?

The pair married in 2008, while Remy was serving time in prison. After her release in 2014, the couple held a formal wedding in 2016 and welcomed their daughter, Reminisce Mackenzie, in 2018.

For years, fans praised their loyalty and commitment, especially Papoose’s public support during Remy’s incarceration. Their love story inspired many in the hip-hop world. That’s what makes this split feel like the end of an era.

Now, it seems like both sides are heading in different directions. While Shields said she feels “secure” in her relationship with Papoose and that “it’ll get handled,” Remy is more focused on closure than confrontation.

“I’m not mad. I just want peace,” she said to her followers.
