Here’s what you need to know about her:
1. She Received a Restraining Order for Reportedly Threatening Her Husband
On March 1, 2016, Radar Online — who obtained the Maryland Prince George County District Court documents — reported that Tokyo Toni was hit with a restraining order for “threatening to ‘crack’ her husband’s head open.” That man is Marcellus Hunter, whom she’s been married to since October 2012. Hunter filed the restraining order in July 2013. Hunter, 46, spoke to the site about Tokyo Toni’s temper.
Shalana is violent when angry. She often tries to start a physical altercation. I have hundreds of texts [threatening] bodily harm, threats to come to my job and get me fired. Threats to ‘crack my head open’ if I return to my home. Threats to leave me in a landfill. I want the threats to stop. I want her out of my home…She has already cut up my clothes!
Amid Hunter’s claims, a judge issued him an order of protection that prevented Tokyo Toni from “contacting, threatening or harassing him,” and it also “extended to his young daughter,” reported the site. Since then, Hunter and Tokyo Toni have seemingly worked things out.

“As far as I’m concerned he could be a bad influence on her.”

Prior to its removal, Tokyo Toni reportedly pulled no punches in an Instagram post, calling the Kardashians “reality hoes,” reported Hollywood Life on April 6.
In a social media rant seemingly directed at Rob’s sisters — Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner — Tokyo Toni went off about how fake the famous Armenians and their friends are.

A source of the site stated that Khloe is “furious” over the post and that she “doesn’t want to be bothered with Rob’s engagement. She is not excited, not happy and not interested in seeing the marriage take place. It may be a joyous day for Rob and Blacc but Khloe hates it.”
TMZ reported that Rob – with Tokyo Toni present — proposed with candles and rose petals from “more than 500 roses.” US Weekly reported that Blac Chyna’s engagement ring — shown below — is a “massive 7-carat round brilliant, triple excellent cut” from jewelry designer Ben Baller.

In the process, she periodically flexes her butt cheeks and twerks on a couple of occasions.
