Former Love and Hip Hop star Alexis Skyy denied former best friend Anthony Gaskin's recent claims that she and two others assaulted him, leaving him injured.

On Sunday, October 20, 2024, Skyy told The Shade Room that Gaskin was the one who attacked her instead in a separate incident that took place three weeks ago.

"Ant came to my house and attacked me 3 weeks ago in front of my daughter. He put his hands on me first. He constantly keeps speaking about my child and keeps attacking me," she told The Shade Room in an interview.

Skyy is a TV personality who first gained attention after she began dating rapper Fetty Wap. She has since appeared on the VH1 shows Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood, Love & Hip Hop: New York, and Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta.

Skyy continued:

"He is sitting playing victim, like he has real mental health issues. He needs to keep his mouth shut. He is a whole man, idc gay or not. He hit me in my face in front of my kid. Everyone in the industry knows he runs his mouth nonstop & I was the only one still giving him a chance."

She did not further elaborate about the reasons behind Gaskin's alleged actions but claimed the assault left her with bleeding nails. Additionally, Alexis Skyy told the Shade Room that she was pursuing legal action against Gaskin, as he used to previously work as her assistant and signed an NDA.


"I have been emotionally distraught and physically beaten to the core" — Anthony Gaskin about Alexis Skyy allegedly jumping him

On Sunday, October 20, Anthony Gaskin took to his TikTok (@algexperience) to inform his followers that Alexis Skyy and two others allegedly attacked him as he was returning home on Friday. He claimed that when he tried to walk away from the group, Skyy and another woman punched him in the face while a man kicked him in the ribs.

He alleged that the altercation left him with a fractured rib and a knocked-out veneer. He later took to his Instagram to share photos of his bruises on his face as a result of the alleged attack, stating:

"When someone you consider family and a close friend assaults you, but then has other ppl jump on you. A stop has to be made!!!! The images you’re seeing of myself are just the start I have been emotionally distraught and physically beaten to the core."

In his post, Gaskin, a fashion consultant and stylist, also slammed Alexis Skyy's parenting, claiming she left her daughter, Lay Lay, with random strangers. He didn't offer further explanation about his comments.

Gaskin continued his rant in a series of Instagram stories, offering clarification about his comments about Lay Lay. He asserted that he did not say anything negative about Skyy's daughter and reiterated that it was Skyy's parenting that he was criticizing.

He also alleged that he frequently played babysitter to her daughter. He claimed that if he or Skyy's mother were unavailable, she would have left Lay Lay in care of someone she barely knew.

Alexis Skyy recently revealed she would vote for Trump in the upcoming elections before changing her stance

Alexis Skyy was recently in the news for stating she would be voting for Donald Trump in the upcoming elections. During her recent interview with KISS 104.1, she stated:

"I’m voting for Trump! I’m gonna get right to the point. I’m voting for Trump! I just feel like when Trump was around, things were (different)."

Skyy explained that despite others' opinions of the former president and his tendency to be a "little extra," she believed he was a better candidate. She reasoned that he brought "more money" into the economy when he was in the office.

However, after Trump's interview with Fox News on Friday, where he revealed that if he was elected, he would remove the Department of Education and cut funding for public schools that teach about the Atlantic slave trade. This prompted Alexis Skyy to share an Instagram story stating:

"Thw interview I did regarding voting was done prior to Trump's statement on the Department of Eduction. Initially, I wanted to vote for Trump for my own personal reasons. After familiarizing with both candidates, I will no longer be voting for him."

The reality TV star concluded her post by incorrectly stating the election date as November 4. The correct date is Tuesday, November 5, 2024⁩.

He alleged that she "doesn't have morals" and will do "anything for money, including leaving her child with random strangers."
