"I thought I was the man, and I was willing to give up what I had at home for that, until I realized that what I had at home was irreplaceable. I had kids with my wife because I wanted to be with my wife. And those three babies are all wanted, and I wanted to be with them," said the rapper.

Broadus said in a W Magazine interview that the scarf collection aimed to be “positive and a reflection of her going through all that.”

“I would put a scarf on her and so she wouldn’t feel like she was the only one wearing scarves. We all, wore scarves with her to make her feel less alone,” she added.

In 2021, Shante Broadus became Snoop's manager, overseeing his business deals, collaborations and other assets. She also penned her memoir, Paid the Cost to be the Boss Lady, which reportedly delved into her life and the difficulties of being in the public eye.
