Ex Wife - Sierra Gates
Rod was previously married to the another fellow cast member of the VH1 show Sierra Gates.

Two Children
As mentioned earlier, Gates is the father of two wonderful children with her ex-wife. Her kids include a daughter Paris Gates and a son Mason Gates.
Paris was born in 2004 when Sierra was just 15 years old which resulted in her being kicked out from her own home by her mom and dropped out of her school.
It would have been really difficult if Shooter wasn't there to take the responsibility of his daughter and then-girlfriend. Shooter is also a father of a son Malik from his another relationship.
Cheating on Wife with Moriah Lee
It was back in 2017 in an episode of the 'Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta (LHHATL)' when Sierra knew that her 40 years old husband was cheating on her the whole time. He was cheating on her with her marketing assistant Mariah Lee by dating as well as financially supporting her behind her back.
When she discovered the fact, she immediately planned to separate from her hubby which she did later. Hence, the unfaithfulness of the producer costed him his married life and kids.
Death of Son Rodricous Jr.
Two years ago in August, 2017 Sierra's former spouse lost his son Rodricous Gates Jr. who was from his very previous relationship after getting shot.
The entrepreneur was devastated and heartbroken by the incident and said that he never got to say 'I Love You' to his son ever again. Mason's mother also paid her deep condolence and sympathy on the loss of his son. While it is believed that Jr. died in a shooting, some online news magazine such as BCK Online claim that he died in a car accident.
