As reported here, three of the previously defunct group’s members – Aubrey, Aundrea, and D. Woods – launched a reunion jaunt earlier this month called ‘The Untold Chapter Tour.’

Storming stages across America, the trek most notably misses founding members Shannon and Dawn – the latter of whom later took to social media to reveal she was snubbed from inclusion on the lineup.

As fans of the group continued inquiring about her absence, Richard unloaded during a recent visit to the Cocoism podcast (as seen above).

“I’m nowhere near perfect, but I’m not the person they say I am,” Dawn explained – saying she doesn’t like being portrayed as “the villain.” “I wasn’t involved; I was iced out of this one. That’s a choice [they made], but I’m not going to go back and forth and be messy and call myself “the mother” [of the group because I came up with the name]. I wish it could be all five of us.”

Going on to say she is “saddened by the reality” that all the group’s members are not participating in the tour, Richard went as far as to say she doesn’t know if they will ever get to a place where they mend fences and collaborate creatively again.

At writing, Shannon, Audrey, Aundrea, nor D. Woods reacted to Dawn’s latest claim she was left out of the reunion.

    She is right it would be nice if all 5 of them come together and talk things out but she also need to learn to take accountaballity for the things she did she treated D woods always like s*** even before Aubery went on the breakfast club and revealed what was going on between D and Dawn we all knew that something was always strengh. That what hurts Dwoods rthe most she did not hate on Dawn but Dawn always hated on her and downplayed her for some reason. Aubery and Shanon have their own issues with Dawn. I really hope that they can make up. Come together as 5 and heal.

    She came up with the name she came up with their harmonies she wrote their stuff – it’s too bad we don’t get to see Dawn and Aundrea sing together again because once again the messy duo is doing messy things
