Mimi Faust has been the center of the drama on Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta.

Most recently, Faust spoke out about the troubled bromance between her ex-boyfriend, Stevie J, and his one-time best friend, Benzino.

Faust told Sister 2 Sister on Sept. 2 that despite all the arguments, violent altercations and drama between the two, Benzino had good intensions for Stevie J.

"I think Benzino really had his friend's best interest at heart and he was trying to look out for him, whether he went about it the right way or not, that's a matter of opinion," she told the magazine.

The trouble started brewing when Benzino learned Stevie J's girl, Joseline Hernandez, has been cheating on him. Last season, Hernandez's driver told Benzino the news.

Benzino tried to reason with his friend, but the confrontation ended in violence at the show's reunion, which aired on Sept. 1.  

"He was like, 'This person in your life is causing havoc and wreaking havoc with everyone else in your life on purpose.' He was trying to get him to understand," Faust said.

According to S2S, Faust could easily blame Hernandez for the end of her and Stevie J's relationship, but she added, confusingly, that Hernandez seemed to hold more contempt for her than vice versa.

Faust has taken to Twitter in recent days, expressing her confusion and perhaps bitterness towards her former boyfriend's new girlfriend. On Sept. 1, she tweeted, "Correction: we haven't been going through anything, we are never in the same places EVER, why she's mad at me? I couldn't tell you!!"

It looks like the reunion show left a few issues up in the air, but that's nothing a new season can't clear up.
