Ahead of the ‘Basketball Wives‘ season premiere on April 17, which will see the long awaited return of Evelyn Lozada, the reality star is speaking out on claims that she blocked the return of her one time bestie Jennifer Williams.

For months I had been reporting that Jenn was in talks with producers to return to show as early as last season, but this season negotiations officially were underway. Jennifer also confirmed that she was in talks to return, shots scenes with Tami Roman, and was ready to make her comeback to the show. Those plans were stopped when according to Jenn, Evelyn blocked her return.

Well now Evelyn has sat down with Hip Hollywood to address the speculation that she was the reason for Jenn’s return falling through. Get in below.
