The mother of both Future and Bow Wow's children took to social media to share her harrowing story.

"Okay, so, now I feel like I can talk about it," Chavis said in her video. "I've been kinda quiet the last few weeks. Just sad, I'm not gonna lie. Somebody broke into my house two weeks ago. And, ever since then, I've just been traumatized, for one, because when they broke in, they broke all the glass. They cut themselves and left blood all around my house."

"Traumatized my daughter. She was like, crying. All of that," she continued. "Stole my Birkins... But it's just the principle. I've never had that happen to me."

Chavis admitted that "it's very crazy in L.A. right now with robberies." She added that she "was so distraught" by the incident and just needed some time to back away from social media.

Neither Future nor Bow Wow has commented on Chavis's claims. Previously, another mother of Future's children in Atlanta was also a victim of an attempted home invasion.
