If you sent the money to the people why the f*** would I come and say, ‘hey she didn’t send me no money.’ Like what’s the purpose of that? I don’t have to lie about nothing. I don’t have to lie about nobody sending no money. Stupid! Like, but she know thought,” Tuson explained.

Ari and Tuson’s beef has been playing out since July, but fans got a front row seat on their fallout during an episode of ‘The Impact ATL.’ Things got so heated that Ari ended up spitting at Tuson in the episode.

Ari Gives Update On Whether She Would Rekindle Their Friendship

Ari kept it real during her BET+ interview. When they asked if she’d ever make up with Tuson Jewell, she replied, “Absolutely not! I wouldn’t even go to his funeral.”

The influencer said she felt backstabbed when he ran to the internet. She mentioned he shouldn’t have played games with her, especially given their friendship.

“Somebody who’s yo friend, you know. I done been into it with plenty of friends whether it was big, small whatever it was, but I’m not going to the internet. It’s so many people like that, that I’ve had encounters with that I would never speak to again. But I still respect them. Somebody that’s like inside the house, you don’t go and do that. Once you play that game it’s hurtful,” she explained.

Fletcher also noted that Tuson’s actions caused her to view him differently and look at him sideways. Furthermore, she stated that she has no plans to make amends.

“Absolutely, no room for that. We will never, ever ever in life be cool again. Never! No matter the circumstances, it’s nothing in this world that could make me be like, ‘I should reach out.’ Nothing! No, absolutely not!”

Despite her feelings, Ari did mention that they had a good run and their friendship era was a good one.

“It was such a good era, such a good time. I still appreciate the friendship for what is was, when it was. And it’s just like, it is what it is. It was great. It was beautiful. I loved it, I had a bomb time with him, but you know that s**t is over. So over!” Ari continued.

During the Q&A, Ari said she thought Tuson was genuine in their friendship. However, she started questioning his intentions, wondering if he had a motive to gain something from being close to her. She added that the way everything went down, it definitely gave “opportunist vibes.”

“At the times that we spent, I feel like he changed. In the beginning it was very genuine, more towards what you see when you around, you kinda want to be that. You want that for yourself. And it’s like, you start to not be so happy for them,” Ari said.
