EXCLUSIVE! Singer Tina Mkwaiwa on assault allegations: "My house, my rules"

Prosper's wife has hit back at shocking media reports, which claim she allegedly beat her 16-year-old stepson over a missing camera.

It was reported that Tina accused the boy of stealing the camera, but he denied knowing anything about it's disappearance.

"A relative," who apparently witnessed the altercation, told Sunday World that Tina started "punching and kicking the boy until he fell to the ground."

Tina told The Juice that she was furious over situation as it's a family matter that's been "dramatized."

She explained that there is no assault case against her, but admitted that she only reacted after the teen attacked her. The singer explained that this is not the first time that things have gone missing from the house.

"This child is going through a teenage phase and it's a challenge that we're dealing with as a family. He's constantly in trouble at school, is under the impression that his father is rich, so he can steal our cars to show off and has the right to be cheeky with adults," she said.

Tina added that she will not stand for such nonsense in her house and that a child needs to be taught right from wrong. "This is my house and it's my rules! If their mother has a problem with the way I'm raising her children, she can come fetch them," she said.

Prosper shares two sons with his ex-wife and actress Tina Jaxa.
