Royce Reed has been going after Dwight Howard on social media.

Royce Reed made a wild accusation on Instagram Live, earlier this week, alleging that her ex, Dwight Howard, may have played a role in the death of pastor Zachery Tims. The comments come as she's been feuding with the former NBA star on social media in the wake of the news that he's engaged to Amy Luciani.

“There was a day where my child was that kid sitting on the sidewalk waiting on his dad to pull up. There was a day that that happened. That day is also the day that I found out that he was in New Jersey with his cousin and Pastor Zachery Tims. I screen-grabbed that picture. That next morning, all of a sudden, Pastor Zachery Tims is no longer with us. There’s no video surveillance,” Reed explained. She also noted that Howard deleted many of his social media posts at the time. “There is a picture of who he was with. And then all of a sudden, Superman’s Twitter went from having 10,000 tweets to about 10,” Reed added.

When Live Bitez shared the rant on Instagram, fans had mixed feelings. "Babeeee im trying to get a clear understanding of the implication," one user wrote. Another took Reed's side in the situation. They commented: "He should’ve left Royce alone! She’s been quiet for a loooooooooooong time! Keep poking the bear and SHE WILL WAKE UP! I love me some Royce! She’s always been authentic!"
