“Married to Medicine” star Toya Bush-Harris and her husband have officially settled their years-long beef with the IRS.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the Internal Revenue Service recently released a Federal Tax Lien against the reality stars.
The lien accused Toya and her husband, Eugene Harris, of owing money stemming from 2012 and 2013 tax bills.
The IRS claimed Toya owed $72,141.50 (2012) and $81,175.95 (2013). The release means the couple has paid off the back taxes and are officially in the clear.
Toya has starred on “Married to Medicine” since season one. During the seven seasons, Toya has been open about her financial issues. Toya and Eugene would visit a financial advisor on the show. They attempted to cut their budgets and handle their debt.
Toya told The Grio ,“It really took us to buckle down and realize we couldn’t keep spending the way we were. We aren’t using any credit cards and every dollar we earned went toward those taxes. Once we sat down with accountants and tax attorneys, we learned that if we would have prolonged this they would have kept taxing us. We set a goal of eighteen months to two years and we did it. It was heartache but it was worth it. After we paid it off, you could see that a load came off of my husband and it’s so worth it for him to not be so stressed.”
Toya isn’t the only one paying off tax debt. “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Mimi Faust dropped thousands to pay off tax debt.
