On Tuesday, December 1st reality star Mendeecees Harris of 'Love and Hip Hop New York' was sentenced to eight years in prison on drug trafficking charges.
As reported by Yahoo.com, in April the 37-year-old pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute and process heroin and cocaine from 2005 to 2012 in Rochestor, New York. He took a plea deal which he will do two years less than the maximum sentence in a federal prison.
In addition to his sentencing Harris agreed to give up the $171,000 he made from VH1's 'Love and Hip Hop New York'. He is also giving up his 2011 Audi RB which is worth $111,000.
Harris and Yandy Smith married on Memorial Day, May 25, 2015. The couple share two children together. Mendeecees has two other children from a previous relationship.
The new season of 'Love and Hip Hop New York' will premiere on Monday, December 14th.
Although Mendeecees has been sentenced, the viewers will see him on the episodes that led up to his sentencing.
Yandy who is now a mother of three, including lil Mendeecees is keeping a positive attitude throughout this personal matter. She is not the only reality star who has had to deal with her husband going to prison in the midst of the spotlight.
Apollo NIda of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' also husband of Phaedra Parks was sentenced to eight years in prison for idenity theft and bank fraud in September 2014. Phaedra caught a lot of backlash because she said she would not take their children to see Apollo while he was in jail.
Do you think Yandy should take their children to see Mendeecees in prison?
Would you take your children to see their mother or father in prison?
