SHABBA DOO & LELA’s MARRIAGE

shabba doo4

Adolfo “Shabba Doo” Quiñones and Lela Rochon were married the same year that the cult classic film, Breakin,’ was released. Their marriage lasted for a total of three years and Shabba Doo explained that he was the one who messed things up with Lela, as well as to his first wife, Gwen:

Via Black Hollywood File: “I was married twice. Wasn’t that good at it. I wouldn’t say that my marriage was no good because of the ladies that I married. They turned out to be very wonderful ladies and I was just incapable of having a meaningful relationship or maintaining one. I had good relationships, they were good. I wish I could have recognized how good they really were. Sometimes, you know, hindsight is 20/20. This is very true. Anyway, my ex-wife was Lela Rochon. Also another great lady, wish I could have been better – I wasn’t – our breakup was all my fault, not hers at all. And my other wife was Gwen Powell, again lovely lady, terrible at being a husband and being a boyfriend. So I lost two really great people.”

Welp, at least the brotha was man enough to admit his wrongs…we live and we learn. Shabba never remarried after that, but at 61 years young, the ladies are still after him. Check out who Lela is happily married to now…
