Things are looking great for soon-to-be married couple Shad Moss a.k.a. Bow Wow and fiancée Erica Mena. The two are scheduled to wed in June, and based on previous reports, they are already busy planning their wedding. However, what does Mena's latest move have to do with the upcoming nuptials? 

In Moss' latest interview with Access Hollywood, he revealed that Mena will be leaving "Love & Hip Hop: New York" for good. When asked if Mena will be flying with him from Los Angeles to New York to film "LHH," he said:

"Now she's done she's out here full time now. She has some great things coming as well. She has her clothing line she's running. She's branching that out. She's doing a lot of big things too and she's looking forward to the move. She's actually on the plane on her way here right now." 

Since Moss revealed Mena's departure from the show, "LHH" head Mona Scott-Young has not made any comment about it. Nonetheless, Young knew that Mena didn't appear in the taping of the new episodes and didn't appear in their one-on-one talk either. 

Many speculate that there's more to the decision of leaving the reality TV series. A report from Bossip says that it has something to do with all the fighting in the show as well as her ex, Cyn Santana, being in the same program with her. 

"A lot of people cast this season were cast because of beef with her. Erica was pretty much sick of the deflecting and the projecting of off other people's negativity," an insider told Bossip. "She's about to be somebody's wife and she didn't want to put herself in the type of space where that could happen. She didn't want to put herself in a place where she has to act negative. She's in a different place now." 

Meanwhile, Mena hasn't posted much about her wedding plans on Instagram lately. It seems she wants to keep things a surprise for the big day. Her last wedding-related post was three weeks ago and it showed a peek of her wedding dress.
