Mary J. Blige and her estranged ex-husband, Kendu Isaacs, have been battling it out for months now. The downward spiral of their marriage has made tons of headlines due to the outlandish demands Kendu has made during their legal battle. From requesting more than $125,000 a month in spousal support, to demanding additional funds for his children from previous relationships, Kendu went over and beyond with his requests, despite the speculation of infidelity. Although Mary and Kendu had been together for years, his recent actions led many fans to believe he was only after her money, to begin with. Apparently, Mary feels the same way. During a new interview, Mary decided to speak her mind yet again, and she didn’t mince words when it came to her disapproval of Kendu, reports The Jasmine Brand.

Mary Claps Back:

When asked about the divorce battle and how she’s been coping with everything, Mary didn’t make an effort to paint a pretty picture. She was brutally honest about how she’s been handling everything. The “Not Gon’ Cry” singer also made her view of Kendu very clear.

“I’m doing OK. I’m living. I’m not happy about a lot of things. I thought someone loved me, right? Turns out, he was a con artist and he didn’t, and now he’s coming after me for all my money.”

She went on to share her views of the relationship, now that she’s on the outside looking in. According to Mary, their disheartening divorce journey has shown her a lot about the man she married. Mary now believes she was never the one for Kendu and that he always had ulterior motives. But despite his reported attempts to get his hands on Mary’s money, he didn’t get anything near what he requested…at least for now. As we previously reported, Mary was ordered to pay $30,000 a month in temporary spousal support, instead of the $130,000 he initially demanded. That amount could change though after the final agreement is reached.

“When you come out of something like that, you realize you were never the one. There was someone else that was his queen. I got played. I got suckered. I have to keep smiling and keep my spirits up because this is designed to kill me,” said Mary J..

Moving On:

Of course, it ain’t been easy, but Mary is making an effort to keep it pushin’ with her life. Now, she’s focused on her career again. For those who don’t know, Mary has been working on a Netflix film called Mudbound. She explained how her marital problems have served as a source of inspiration for her acting.

“I used a lot of my own heaviness from my own misery that I was living in that horrible marriage. I was just dying in it. I knew something was wrong. I just couldn’t prove it. I just had all the heaviness of not feeling right, not feeling good. I gave it to Florence [the character she played].”

Y’all can check out Mary in Mudbound when it’s released on November 17, 2017 on Netflix.
