ORIGINAL STORY:
T.I. has stopped production of his VH1 reality show T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle after his sister was in a car accident last week.
Tip's sis, Precious Harris, 66, was involved in a car accident on the morning of Wednesday (Feb. 13). According to a TMZ report on Monday (Feb. 18), Harris hit a pole, which triggered her to have an asthma attack. She was transported to a nearby hospital and placed in ICU. When T.I. learned of the news he reportedly shut down production of the show, which Precious often makes cameos on, while they deal with the more serious issue of her health.
T.I.'s wife Tiny asked for her fans to pray for Precious in a post on Instagram. "Anybody that really know me knows how special & how much I cherish & love this lady, my sister @preciousharris1913," she wrote. "Pls pray for my sister & family. She’s a true fighter...always have been & God has the last word... 🙏🏽👑💔💔💔."
On Monday (Feb. 18), T.I. posted a homage to Precious on IG. Along with a photo of the both of them, he captioned the pic, "I Love You Sis...❤️ We can’t thank you enough 🙏🏽 #MyBiggestFan."
Harris' current condition is unknown. According to the report, T.I. and Tiny have decided to suspend production of the show until Harris is able to get well.
The incident hasn't stopped Tip from putting out music, however. He released the Floyd Mayweather Jr. diss track "Fuck Nigga" last week where he bashes the retired boxer for going against the grain and openly opposing a Gucci boycott following a blackface design controversy.
