After The Storm

Monica has had her fair share of tragedy when it comes to love, beginning in 2000 when she witnessed her fiance Jarvis Weems commit suicide right in front of her face. Her next relationship with Atlanta based rapper Rocko began shortly after Weems’ suicide resulted in the birth of her first two children.

Their rocky relationship lasted until early 2010 and shortly afterwards Monica met Shannon Brown while searching for a love interest to appear in her video for the song “Love All Over Me”.

Monica and Shannon soon married in November of 2010 in a secret ceremony followed by a second ceremony for their family and friends in July of 2011. The couple welcomed a daughter in 2013 and have been living a fairly quiet life up until recently when divorce rumors began swirling. Those rumors become confirmed earlier this year. Although Monica has remained successful with not referencing her marriage issues on this current season of T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle she has now broken her silence on the emotions shes going through.

Young And In Love

Gibson and Cole met each other in 2009 and had welcomed a child and gotten married all within the span of two years. Their wedding and family life were documented on the BET series Keyshia & Daniel: Family First but unfortunately their marriage fell apart after allegations of an affair surfaced with Keyshia claming the infidelity took place in she and Gibson’s shared bed. After months of silence Gibson spoke with Rolling Out in the aftermath of their breakup and expressed regret with how his marriage ended.

What happened with me and her was that our relationship was out there for everyone to see. So whenever we were going through our problems, it became public and everyone saw the ups and downs. With us, I think it was just a matter of us growing apart over time. I can’t say that there was one thing that broke us up, but what I can say as a man; when you are in a relationship, and you say those vows, I take full responsibility for everything that didn’t go right.

In regards to the alleged infidelity Gibson said;

I won’t say that I didn’t cheat, but I will say that I cheated my wife out of a friend in a lot of situations where I was supposed to hold her down and I didn’t. I cheated my wife out of a lot of different things. I feel like when we got together, I thought I was a man, and I thought I had it all figured out but I didn’t. I think I was like 23 when we met, and so a lot of mistakes that you shouldn’t make as a man in a relationship with your wife, I made.

So far 2019 has been a very tumultuous year for Wendy Williams, although the majority of her issues have been ongoing since last year. Most famously, though, was the horrific moment on live television when Wendy, dressed as the Statue of Liberty, became flustered before the next segment of her show and passed out in front of her studio audience and millions of viewers.

As frightening as that was it set off a chain of events that forced Wendy to face the truth of her current state of being; we learned there were cheating allegations against her husband as well as the re-emergence of Wendy’s struggles with substance abuse. In the aftermath Wendy eventually ended up checking herself into a sober living facility to get her life back on track and subsequently filed for a divorce from Kevin Hunter. However, a bizarre tale from earlier this year is popping up for a behind the scenes peek into the horror Wendy must have been going through at home.

Divorces are rarely ever easy. And it’s no different for Tisha Campbell-Martin, who believes she has millions of dollars tied in assets. However, to better understand, here are the details.

According to The Blast, Campbell-Martin isn’t exactly sure regarding her asset entirety, due to the ongoing fraud lawsuit involving estranged husband Duane Martin.

Nevertheless, the source reports that Tisha recently filed an income and expense declaration. Although the separated couple reached a deal for joint custody of their two kids, they’re still battling over money and support.

Specifically, spousal support…

According to alleged court documents, Tisha’s income and expense declaration states that she makes $5,400 a month as an actress. However, it varies depending on work, etc.

Yet, Here’s What She Says Duane Makes>>>

Usher & Wife’s Separation Announcement

In a brief statement Usher and Grace issued to US Weekly, they stunned fans with the news:

Via US: “After much thought and consideration we have mutually decided to separate as a couple,” Usher, [39], and Miguel, 48, said in a joint statement to Us on Tuesday, March 6. “We remain deeply connected, loving friends who will continue supporting each other through the next phases of our lives. The enormous amount of love and respect that we have for each other will only increase as we move forward.”

It was also reported that Usher and Grace had already secretly separated for “a couple of months.”

Wife Shares Cryptic Messages Following Their Anouncement

Grace is known for giving cryptic messages on her Instagram page and shortly after they announced their split, she posted a few on her page. Her cryptic posts gave a combined vibe of the types of breakup messages within Lisa Lisa & The Cult Jam’s “All Cried Out,” mixed with a hint of Mya’s “I’m Moving On,” and a dash of Beyonce’s “Irreplaceable.” Grace’s first post read: “In as much as you have suffered finding your way in the world, you have also triumphed. Let not past failures pull you back through time and space. Rather begin each new day as an opportunity to create that which brings joy to your heart. Rejoice in your capacity for resilience.”

Grace then posted a meme, encouraging herself and others to do away with the ‘what’s the best for your image’ mentality and instead follow what your heart tells you to do. In other words, Grace is probably sick n’ tired of frontin’ out here in these streets, like she’s unbothered by the drama of Usher’s herpes scandal and cheating allegations.

Mr.and Mrs.Usher Raymond married in September of 2015, after having dated for 6 years prior, since 2009. Even on their 2 year anniversary last year, after the herpes scandal broke, it seemed as if Grace was standing strong by her man. She even sent a few loving messages to him on the day of their anniversary. In her first post, she vowed to always stand by her man’s side no matter what:

In her second anniversary post, she shared a happy photo of her and Usher, as she reminisced about the time he surprised her:

@enmemetemps: That time my husband surprised me on our anniversary to a day of soul cycle with @shapewithangela , The Chagall Show @lacma , Pranayama breathing, Kirtan Chanting and yummy Moroccan food. #Blessed

Their Separation Comes Weeks After Chilli’s Tweet

Usher’s and Grace’s announcement comes a few weeks after Usher’s ex-longtime girlfriend, Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas (of TLC), sent Twitter into a tizzy with her suspect tweet about her and Usher’s relationship. Now, it kinda makes one wonder if Chilli already knew some inside info about their situation, that us regular folks didn’t. Why? Because her tweet, though short and sweet, was a tad outta character for Chilli, who hardly ever publicly talks about her past relationship with Usher and damn sure never tweets about the brotha, being that he’s married and all. That’s why it caught so many of her Twitter fans off guard when she tweeted about ‘Mr.Ursher baby’ on February 28th.

As we previously reported, it all started with one simple tweet Chilli retweeted from someone who tagged both her and Usher in a tweet that read, “@Usher & @officialchilli were a pretty a$$ couple!❤💔”

The tweet seemed innocent enough, but once Chilli retweeted it with her own caption that read, “Facts,” fans turned it into a whole ‘notha thing altogether:

Facts https://t.co/2dZ4CFBi4j

— Chilli (@officialchilli) February 18, 2018

As you can see, Chilli had a “Back down memory lane” like Minnie Riperton, for a split second. But y’all already know fans were quick to point out that Chilli, who reportedly is single, must still want her ex back. Many also commended her on ‘shooting her shot’ at Usher from a distance:

Not even Chilli could ignore the reactions, so she decided to respond to one fan with a question:

Fan- “Still feeling a way I see 👀”
Chilli- “U got that just from me saying facts?? Cut it out now.”

https://twitter.com/zothegal/status/965312166004953089

Regardless of how Chilli’s attempt to redirect everyone’s attention in the ‘I meant no harm’ direction, she should’ve known her tweet would stir up lil’ hype, which she probably was already aware of. In today’s world of social media, it’s almost impossible for her not to assume that her tweeting a trip about her past with Usher, would not catch the attention of her 860K Twitter fans. Most of them want those two to rekindle that ol’ flame again anyway. As of today, fans may now have a chance to see Usher ad Chilli do just that one day, who knows? But that’s makes Usher’s and Grace’s separation announcement a bittersweet moment for many fans.

We’ll let Lisa Lisa & Full Fore take us out on this one with their classic, “All Cried Out”…

Learned The Hard Way

She turned over her financial affairs to Isaacs and now is paying for it– literally and figuratively. But Mary has learned a hard lesson through it all. Even if you have a great team, you still need to know what’s going on with your bread.

Mary sat down with New York Magazine to talk about her recent successes and her hopeful perspective on life. She didn’t want to go into the details of her messy divorce, but Blige did talk a bit about the impact it has had on her finances.

Her Divorce Is The Best And Worst Thing That Could Happen To Her Finances

In divorce documents, Mary told the court that she was in debt up to her eyeballs and owed millions of dollars to the IRS. Blige credits Isaacs for this mess, but she has taken ownership for not paying attention to the business side of her craft. At one point last year, Mary was homeless. The reality of her condition was a rude awakening. Mary is not just in the music business, she IS a business.

“I’m just being straight-up honest,” Blige told New York Magazine. “I never wanted to do all this stuff, but after what I’ve been through and all the mess that I’m in … You have to pay those taxes. It’s good to see what you have and what you don’t have — and why are we paying this person $5,000 a week?”

The Golden Globe and now Oscar-nominated actress/singer has much to look forward to in the coming days. Her performance in “Mudbound” has garnered hella praise and most definitely validates her recent star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

But it has all been overshadowed by the ongoing battle with Isaacs over her money, coupled with the challenges of earning money to pay off her debts. Mary J. had been ordered to pay Isaacs $30,000 a month, which she hopes will end when they go to court next month. Either way, Mary has turned a corner.

“This is the next chapter,” Blige said with optimism. “This is why I’m just so humbled and grateful, because I’ve been praying for this and asking for this and it’s here, outside of all this foolishness that’s happening right now.”

It is being reported that Price filed court docs in L.A. Superior Court last week asking that a judge rule in her favor in the divorce by default, because Rolle never responded to her divorce petition.

In her initial filing, Price reportedly asked that neither side be entitled to spousal support, and said that since they hadn’t built up assets as a married couple, there are none to divvy up.

Price wants the court to issue a judgment ASAP, and… Continue Reading to the next page>>>

Sources very close to Tichina tell us she put Rico Hines on blast with a scathing group text to friends and family, saying … “It’s over between Rico and I. This is where I part ways and all bets are off.” That’s the tame part.

The bombshell? She claims he’s been banging scores of women — sometimes without protection — and she has a sex tape to prove it. Her mass text includes the video and she said, “I can’t for the life of me understand why Rico would video himself f—ing ‘raw dog’ ONE of his MANY extraneous whores that ‘trick’ on him for his money.”

Hines is an assistant basketball coach at St. John’s University.

She also named 20 of the women, who she labels “extraneous Kim Kardashian wanna be’s.”

Tichina says she’s concerned about STDs and plans to get tested. Her rep told People she plans to end the marriage. It’s unclear if she’s filed divorce docs yet.

Hines tells us through a rep, “This is a private and deeply personal matter between my wife and me, and I do not want to comment any further at this time.”

If anyone knows, us “old schoolers” know that “hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”. Although Tichinia hasn’t been one to be involved in messy drama, it seems that Tichina is definitely scorned. We hope to report better news for this family in the future, and I’m sure we will all engage in conversations about this ultimately to map better roads for ourselves and our families.
