Benzino dated his "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" co-starKarlie Redd, and he has a son, Zino (born November 2015) with his ex-girlfriendAlthea Heart. Benzino and Heart appeared on the reality television series "Marriage Boot Camp" from 2015 to 2016. Althea was a cast member on "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" after she began dating Benzino, and he proposed to her on the show. After the couple had an altercation with two other cast members during a reunion special and Benzino later allegedly threatened one of the producers, they were fired from the show.

In 2002, Benzino gained publicity after engaging in a feud with fellow rapperEminem, who he has referred to as "2003Vanilla Ice." The feud started when "The Source" rated the album "The Eminem Show" four out of five mics when Eminem thought it deserved the highest rating. He blamed Benzino, the magazine's co-founder, and said that "The Source" would never give him a 5-mic rating due to his race. Eminem later refused to let Benzino interview him about his film "8 Mile," and they began releasing diss tracks toward each other (Benzino: "Pull Your Skirt Up" and "Die Another Day," Eminem: "The Sauce" and "Nail in the Coffin"). The feud ended in 2005, and seven years later, Benzino stated, "I can say it now, I was wrong for it. Because at the end of the day, Em is a great lyricist and he should be able to express himself in hip-hop as anybody should."
