Since the first episode of WE tv's reality show Brat Loves Judy starring Platinum rapper Da Brat and her girlfriend, Jesseca "Judy" Dupart, Judy has been planning to propose to the artist at a fake surprise birthday. Audiences who have tuned in to the show have seen Judy pick out engagements rings, choose a venue, and make out a guest list, all in preparation for the big day. One of those guests that Judy invited was Brat's sister, actress LisaRaye McCoy.

Brat's girlfriend totally wanted LisaRaye to be there for the big event, but she wasn't sure if she would come since there's been some tension between the hip-hop artist and her sister. In 2020, a birthday surprise turned sour. In celebration of her sister’s 53rd birthday, Brat virtually appeared on LisaRaye's Fox Soul streaming talk show, Cocktails With Queens, with her sister's co-hosts to wish her a happy birthday. As Brat doted on her big sister, LisaRaye became extremely emotional.

These two have had their ups and downs over the years but have always remained closed. Keep reading to find out why Brat has beef with her sister.
