Hype Williams has received several awards and titles for his fantastic works including the Billboard Music Video Award for Best Director of the Year in 1996 and MTV Video Music Award for Best Rap Video in 1998.

Director Hype had a break up with Sasha after acknowledging that she was cheating on him. Later the same thing repeated when she was dating Marcellus, but it was even worse breakup than with Hype. It was stated that she also had to return the Range Rover that Marcellus had gifted her.
Further, it uttered that Sasha went broke after the breakup and had to sell her Mercedes. She was left with no ride but not for long. She soon found another man to depend on, the NFL player Antonio Gates. What is more shocking is that the pair end up getting married in July 2011. As of now, they share two children Ayla and Aven.
