Amina Buddafly and Peter Gunz net worth: Former couple's fortune explored as singer reveals move to Germany with her kids after losing her USA home

German-born singer, songwriter, and reality TV personality Amina Buddafly recently shared on social media that she and her children had to move to Germany to be with her parents after they lost their home in Los Angeles, California, USA.

In an Instagram video posted on June 24, 2025, Buddafly was seen lying in bed, while her kids were around doing their own thing.

“Day one of waking up in Germany after losing our home in LA. Me and my kids, moved out of our place, put our stuff in storage, or most of it in the trash... We don’t have a home, y’all,” she began her clip.

Amina continued:

“But guess what? Thank god for family, because we are in Germany with my family, and we are going to be here till I figure it out. Because I will, as I always do. Um, but, the last couple of years have been so rough…”

The R&B singer shared that she had been working hard during this time, yet was not making enough money, adding that losing her LA home was the worst thing that could have happened.

While she is hopeful to bounce back and figure things out for herself and her children, Amina Buddafly asked her followers not to ask her about her “plan” yet, as she still had “no idea,” but just needed to “clear my head.”

Buddafly, who has an estimated net worth of $400,000 according to Celebrity Net Worth, shares her two daughters, Cori (born in 2014) and Bronz (born in 2016) with her former husband and rapper Peter Gunz, who has an estimated net worth of $500,000, according to the same source.

In her latest reveal, Amina Buddafly shared that despite the crisis, she and her children were happy, healthy, powerful, and capable, and were exploring new opportunities out there.

“Sometimes losing something is only taking you to the next place you are meant to be. So, [we shall] see what life has in store for us,” she noted.

Amina Buddafly also doubled down on throwing away 80 percent of their life away, but clarified she didn’t own anything “valuable.” She shared her gratitude for having “love” despite not having too many materialistic things.
