This isnā€™t who we expected Stevie J, 47, to grab lunch with. On Aug. 15, the Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta star shared a photo of his work-related lunch with none other than his ex, Joseline Hernandez, 32, who had their daughter Bonnie Bella, 2, on her lap ā€” yes, right after the parentsā€™ reported custody beef! But they werenā€™t alone. L&HH castmates Benzino, Akbar V and Sierra Gates were gathered for the pow wow, and Stevie captioned the group photo, ā€œCast for my new show šŸ˜‰.ā€ Joselineā€™s boyfriend DJ Ballistic was also seated at the table, including Stevieā€™s attorney, Adamma McKinnon! She shared the same photo of the lunch to her Instagram and wrote, ā€œClient Lunch Love n Hip Hop Style !!! God is great ā¤ļøšŸ™ŒšŸ½ā¤ļø .ā€

Fans were understandably surprised to see Stevie and Joseline in the same picture, let alone at the same restaurant table. ā€œSo everybody is going to ignore the fact that Joseline Hernandez is in that picture,ā€ one fan commented under the attorneyā€™s photo. On the same day Stevie shared the photo of his ex, they were reportedly set to return to Fulton County court over custody drama that kicked off on July 28. Thatā€™s the day Stevie was reportedly set to pick up their daughter from Joseline in Miami, since he was scheduled to take care of Bonnie from July 28 to Aug. 11. Instead, Joseline allegedly took Bonnie to Los Angeles, according to court documents that TMZ read.

Stevieā€™s attorney (pictured at lunch below) reportedly brought up Joselineā€™s alleged breach of her custody agreement to court, and the judge issued an arrest warrant for the Marriage Boot Camp star on Aug. 1, TMZ reported. Stevie even flew to LA to retrieve his tot and Joseline wouldā€™ve reportedly been arrested if she didnā€™t comply! The judge reportedly took away physical custody from Joseline and granted sole physical custody to her ex, the outlet added. However, Joseline dodged charges because the VH1 star brought their daughter back to Miami and handed the toddler over to Stevieā€™s adult daughter, according to the report.

Well, it now appears Joseline and Stevie have made enough amends to dine together. Asides from their most recent drama, it was especially surprising to see the parents together after Stevie accused his ex of ā€œparental alienationā€ and living with a male companion ā€œpart-timeā€ in court papers that HollywoodLife obtained on May 14. We have reached out to Stevieā€™s reps for an update on this custody battle, but didnā€™t hear back at the time of publication.
