Sidney Starr Faces Child Sex Allegations; Mom Speaks Out in Support

Sidney Starr, known from Love & Hip Hop, has been hit with serious accusations. Her mother, Stephanie Favors, came forward to defend her daughter, telling media outlets she was caught completely off-guard by the charges and stands firmly in her corner.

Favors made it clear she doesn't believe the allegations line up with the person her daughter actually is. When something like this drops—especially involving a public figure—families are usually the first to either distance themselves or ride hard. In this case, her mom is choosing the latter.

We'll keep tracking how this develops, but right now it's her word against serious charges.
