19-year-old Tatiana Charles, known online as “Tati,” has filed criminal charges against rising Florida rapper Real Boston Richey (real name Jalen Foster), 28, accusing him of violently assaulting her during a recent argument.
Charles, who is reportedly two months pregnant with Foster’s child, alleges that he choked her repeatedly over the course of two harrowing hours. According to the police report, Foster allegedly took her phone to prevent her from calling for help, then placed his hands around her neck approximately 20 times, each choke lasting between 6 to 10 seconds.
The Alleged Incident
The incident reportedly occurred at a private residence, where an argument between the two quickly escalated into violence. Charles claims that Foster’s rage became uncontrollable after she confronted him about a personal issue. At that point, she says he grabbed her phone, allegedly to stop her from recording or reaching out.
The most disturbing part of the report, however, is the alleged physical abuse that followed. Over the course of two hours, Charles states that Foster choked her repeatedly, up to 20 times. The report describes each choking episode as lasting several seconds, enough to cause her breathing difficulty and trauma. She reportedly feared for her life during the encounter.
Authorities have confirmed that the charge filed, Assault Family Violence – Impeding Breathing, is classified as a serious felony and is typically reserved for violent domestic assault cases where strangulation is involved.
A Growing Pattern of Controversy
This is not the first time Real Boston Richey has faced serious allegations. In late 2024, the rapper’s ex-girlfriend, Aire Jay, accused him of leaking private and explicit videos without her consent. In a scathing online post, she also referred to him as a “child molester,” fueling widespread backlash.
Just two months later, in February 2025, Foster was reportedly arrested on conspiracy charges linked to marijuana trafficking. Though no formal conviction followed, the arrest raised questions about the company he keeps and his involvement in illegal activity.
Further scrutiny was cast on Foster’s personal life when rumors surfaced about the age of his current partner, Tatiana Chanell. Public suspicion prompted him to take to social media to clarify that she was 23 years old, refuting rumors that he had begun dating her while she was underage.
Community and Fan Reactions
The public response to the most recent allegations has been swift and emotional. Fans and advocacy groups alike have expressed disappointment and outrage online. “This is heartbreaking,” one user wrote on Twitter. “She’s 19, pregnant, and terrified. What kind of man does this?”
Domestic violence awareness advocates are also weighing in. “This is a classic example of how fame and influence do not excuse abusive behavior,” said a representative from the Florida Coalition Against Domestic Violence. “We stand with Tatiana and every woman who has the courage to come forward.”
The Victim Speaks Out
Tatiana Charles has not released an official public statement beyond her police report, but those close to her describe her as emotionally shaken, traumatized, and afraid. Friends of Charles say she is currently staying with family and trying to recover from the incident both physically and emotionally.
“She’s been through hell,” said one close friend. “No one deserves what she went through. And to be pregnant? It’s just unimaginable.”
Legal Proceedings Ahead
As of now, Foster has not made any public comment regarding the allegations, and it remains unclear whether he has secured legal representation in the case. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities say charges will proceed pending further evidence and witness statements.
If convicted, Foster could face serious prison time. The charge of Assault Impeding Breathing is a felony in many jurisdictions, often punishable by years behind bars, especially when there is a history of alleged abuse.
A Deeply Disappointing Chapter
This case serves as yet another sad reminder of how intimate partner violence continues to plague even those in the public eye. What should be a joyful time in Charles’s life, the early stages of motherhood, has been marred by fear and violence.
As the investigation unfolds, many are calling for accountability, not only in the courtroom but also in the court of public opinion. The world is watching closely and hoping that justice will be served.
