Benny The Butcher is living his best life with a booming career and a great marriage – but he had to go through a pretty rough divorce before he got to this point.
The Griselda rapper was a guest on VIP Saturdays on Shade 45 on Saturday (December 23), where he opened up about learning that his first wife was cheating on him at the time, revealing he found out through a letter she wrote him while he was in prison.

I used to teach a class that you can take to get your time off, and seeing that I’ve always been a smart muthafucka, I was in prison teaching,” he began. “Everywhere I go.

So I understood that our bond wasn’t that strong. Can’t no n-gga do that to my bitch if I’m there doing what I’m supposed to do. But since then, I got rich, I got married again – and she hates it.
