Amanza was raised by her mom and stepdad, whose names are both unknown. During Season 7, Amanza grabbed drinks with castmate Chelsea Lazkani and opened up about her traumatic childhood.

Amanza, who is half Black, explains that her mom and stepdad were both white, so she was the only Black person in the house. She then shares an incredibly disturbing detail about her stepdad.

“My stepdad and stepdad’s father are pedophiles. I don’t remember exact timelines,” she explains but recalls being sexually abused by her stepgrandfather and stepdad between the ages of three to 11.

“Simultaneously in my house, my mom was very mentally abusive so there was no safe space," she says revealing that she never told her mom what was happening because she didn't want her to get rid of him. "Sadly, and this sounds so f—-- up but in the house, he was sometimes a better parent," Amanza says.

She further explains that she’s so strong because “the people who were supposed to be protecting me didn’t,” and as a result, she's had to put up a strong face in order to survive.

Although Amanza feels wronged by her mom, she does seem to still have some love in her heart for her. The Oppenheim Group agent has shared photos of her mom on Instagram (see above). There are no known details about her stepdad and stepgrandfather.

Furthermore, her guardians as a child were her mom and stepdad, Amanza also credits her best friend's parents, PR and Shirley, with raising her.
