Mendeecees & Kirk Frost: The Real Story Behind Their Explosive Fight

The world of “Love & Hip Hop” is no stranger to drama, but even longtime fans were shocked by the recent altercation between Mendeecees and Kirk Frost—a fight so intense, it reportedly led to both men being kicked off the show.

So what really happened, and why did things spiral out of control between these two reality TV veterans?

It all started with confusion and surprise. Mendeecees himself admitted he was blindsided by the situation with Kirk, saying he had no idea things would escalate the way they did

. He encouraged fans to watch the show for the full story, but also confessed that being blindsided isn’t new for him—he’s dealt with unexpected drama his whole life.

Kirk and Mendeecees have both been involved in plenty of on-screen antics over the years, but what could possibly have caused a blow-up so big that it overshadowed their long-standing careers? According to insiders, the fight happened at a private, closed-door event after the show’s taping. The cast was supposed to work through their differences before the reunion special, but things quickly went off the rails.

The tension didn’t just stay between Kirk and Mendeecees—it spilled over into their families and relationships, dragging Rashida and Yandy into the mess. What started as playful taunting between the two men turned into a full-blown brawl.

Even other cast members noticed the shift, commenting on how the group, once tight-knit, seemed to be falling apart with everyone at each other’s throats.

Kirk and Mendeecees have never been best friends, but they shared a mutual respect—until recently. Over the past few months, Kirk kept dragging Mendeecees into drama he wanted no part of, especially involving rumors about infidelity.

Kirk openly discussed his own affairs on TV, even giving his side chick a storyline, but Mendeecees always kept his private life off-camera. When Kirk started bringing up rumors about Mendeecees and Yandy, it crossed a line.

Mendeecees felt disrespected and blindsided by Kirk’s insinuations and repeatedly asked him to stop. When Kirk wouldn’t let up, any friendship between them evaporated.

Mendeecees told anyone who would listen that Kirk was using old storylines—particularly his drama with Jasmine—to stay relevant on the show, and that if it weren’t for Rashida, Kirk wouldn’t even have a place on “Love & Hip Hop.”

Things escalated when Mendeecees confronted producers, claiming Kirk was desperate for a new storyline and trying to manufacture fake beef just to shift focus away from his own scandals.

This accusation reportedly set Kirk off. Kirk, a fixture on the show for over a decade, felt his contributions were being dismissed, especially since his relationship drama with Rashida was a major draw in the early seasons.

With egos flaring, the two men were brought together with the rest of the cast to hash out their issues. Instead, fists flew and the crew had to step in to separate them. The fight was so destructive that producers decided enough was enough, and both men were allegedly let go from the show.

Fans have largely sided with Mendeecees, arguing that Kirk’s attempts to shift blame and stir up drama were out of line. Many believe Kirk was simply trying to deflect attention from his own issues by throwing Mendeecees under the bus. The fallout has even threatened to spill over into Mendeecees and Yandy’s marriage, raising questions about how far reality TV stars will go to stay relevant.

Ultimately, this explosive fight is a cautionary tale about the pressures and pitfalls of reality television. With both Kirk and Mendeecees now off the show, only time will tell how the franchise recovers—and whether these two will ever reconcile.
