Some of you may remember when actors, Malinda Williams (best known for Soul Food and The Wood) and Mekhi Phifer (best known for ER, Soul Food, Paid in Full, and 8 Mile), had more than just a thing going on like Billy Paul and ‘Mrs. Jones,’ they actually took it all the way- got married and had a baby- a little boy named Omikaye Phifer.

Although they went on record to let the world know their marriage was pretty rocky (details below), they happily co-parent their son, who is now a happy, healthy young man. By the way, lil’ Omikaye ain’t so little anymore, he is 23 years old now, and looks like an even blend of both of his parents’ features. Check out a throwback pic of him below, and the surprising details Malinda and Mehki gave about their rocky marriage…

Their Son Used To Look Like This…

He Now Looks Like This…

Malinda’s and Mekhi’s son, Omikaye, now…

Malinda Williams with her and Mekhi’s son, Omikaye…

Mekhi hasn’t shared many recent pics of Omikaye on social media, but a few years ago, when Omikaye was headed off to his senior prom, Mekhi posted the below pic of his son lookin’ fly in his tux.

Mekhi captioned the above photo with:

“It’s crazy how time flies!! I remember changing my youngblood’s diapers and now he’s off to the prom! Another notch in the belt of life! #proudfather”

Mekhi’s And Malinda’s Past Allegations About Their Failed Marriage

Mekhi and Malinda married in 1999 and officially divorced in 2003. But even though their relationship didn’t last, they are now very cool with each other and successfully co-parenting Omikaye.

It took them a minute to get to that “cool” space though…and soon after their separation, they both put each other on blast.

Malinda’s Past Cheating Allegations Against Mehki:

In 2003, Malinda did an interview with Honey Magazine to let the world know that Mekhi was having a LOT of trouble keeping his manhood in his pants when she wasn’t around, if you know what I mean…basically she said implied that he was gettin’ busy with women left and right and living the “Single Life” like Cameo during their union.

Mehki’s Detailed Response To Malinda’s Allegations:

That same year, Mekhi shot back, saying that Malinda didn’t support his career and that he basically got to a point to where he couldn’t stand going home to her and all of the tension:

Mehki: “I was 23 when she got pregnant. You want to do the right thing – what society deems as being the right thing. She wanted a structured family lifestyle that she was used to growing up. The women are dominant matriarchs in her family and the men are subversive, subservient and subdued. Me? I come from a family of men – grown-ass men handling their business.

“It’s easy for a woman to say, ‘He cheated on me and did this and that.’ Look, I’m a very sexual person – I love to make love. In the morning, stink breath? I want to make love. At night after champagne, I want to make love. Women have to let men be men, not walk over them. If you are dealing with a yellow-bellied, no backbone muthaf***a, then okay. I’m a mover and a shaker – a king.

Mekhi didn’t stop there though:

“I didn’t want to be home anymore. We had nothing to talk about because she didn’t know the people I knew. Any argument that we had, 90 percent of the time, I didn’t know what the f**k she was talking about. There was just tension in the house and she couldn’t be sympathetic. I didn’t ask her to cook, clean, nothing. I had cleaning ladies, all that s**t.

“But if you want your man to be there with you, you have to be there with him too – a stimulus for a muthaf***a. For most of the relationship, I was the mover and shaker, she was home complaining.

“I was young. I had an ideology of what I was doing, but it wasn’t the right thing with that particular person. She’s a great mom; I’m a great dad. But we weren’t made for each other. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.”

Years Later, Mehki Confesses To Cheating, Says He & Malinda Are Cool

Now Mekhi says he and Malinda are in a much better space, stating “we’re really good peoples now,” during his 2014 interview with The Breakfast Club. He also finally admitted to cheating on her:

Mehki: “At the time it was crazy. For a lack of a better term, you’re traveling and girls are throwing it at you and sometimes your catching it,” he confessed. “[I wasn’t cheating] the whole time but you know we were only married for less than a year.”

“There was a point where because I bought us a house and we were living on opposite sides of the house. We were technically married, but you’re going two or three days living in the house and you aren’t even talking. […] I’m talking about walking up and down the stairs past each other and you aren’t even talking.”

After Their Divorce, Mekhi Was “Relieved”

Mehki: “I was kind of relieved. I had developed this bald spot in the back of my hair because I was stressed and I didn’t even know it was stress. But once we got separated and I didn’t make it hard, I left her with the house and all of that and just left. I left with my clothes and my whip so then I was cool.”

They did the right thing obviously- when a relationship gets so bad that the woman knows she can’t trust her husband farther than she can throw him and the husband is balding from the stress, it’s probably time to call it quits…or else give a 1000% to toughen it out together and pray that the problems disappear.

Meet Lisa:

https://www.instagram.com/p/rpRewIPRrr/

Malinda’s sister, Lisa Sorenson, is a well-known publicist. Sorenson owns a Short Hills, New Jersey-based public relations agency that boasts an array of celebrity clients. For the past 15 years, Lisa Sorenson Public Relations has done press work for famed athletes like Venus Williams and fitness enthusiast, Shaun T. Even before owning her own successful company, Lisa had an amazing resume working for MTV and Arista Records. She also did press work for the highly anticipated film The Shack, starring Octavia Spencer.

In addition to being a successful business woman with a highly respected public relations agency, she’s also a wife and mother. Lisa is married to Eric Sorenson and they have two handsome sons. In fact, one of her sons has developed a knack for the camera, following in his aunt’s footsteps with acting and modeling. Her youngest son, Ellis Sorenson, is represented by one of New York’s top model agencies for kids, New York Model Management, and for his acting, he is repped by CESD.

Meet Leslie:

While Malinda and Lisa dabble in the world of entertainment, their sister Leslie enjoys a different type of lifestyle. She’s actually an IT Director for Johnson & Johnson.

Their Parents Are Still Together

Overall the women come from a great family with strong relationship ties. Their parents have been married for 55 years and their grandfather passed in January 2018 at the age of 106 years old. Back in August of 2016, Malinda actually congratulated her parents on their 54th wedding anniversary.

Lisa and Leslie aren’t Malinda’s only sisters, so to speak. She actually has two special women she refers to as her “sisters from another mother” and fans are quite familiar with these two. They’re none other than her “Soul Food” ‘sisters’- actresses, Nicole Ari Parker, and Vanessa A. Williams a.k.a. Ms. ‘Rocka-bye baby’ from New Jack City. The three ladies left their mark on television when they actually played sisters on camera. Malinda’s connections with the women in her life prove special bonds can never be broken.

Now here’s the deal with their rocky marriage: Mekhi and Malinda married in 1999 and officially divorced in 2003. Mekhi actually referred to them being married (from a connection and emotional standpoint) for only about a year. But even though their relationship didn’t last, they are now very cool with each other and successfully co-parenting Omikaye.

It took them a minute to get to that “cool” space though and soon after their separation, they both kind of threw each other on blast about why their relationship ended.

“I was 23 when she got pregnant. You want to do the right thing – what society deems as being the right thing. She wanted a structured family lifestyle that she was used to growing up. The women are dominant matriarchs in her family and the men are subversive, subservient and subdued. Me? I come from a family of men – grown-ass men handling their business.

Now Mekhi says he and Malinda are now in a much better space and when he did an interview with The Breakfast Club in 2014, he also indirectly finally admitted to cheating, just like Malinda said he was doing in her 2003 interview:

“I can’t front arguing at home and going through all of that because we were both young and with both our A-type personalities—but we’re really good peoples now. We’re better off, like we’re happily divorced, we’re better off friends and we’re raising our son together.”

“At the time it was crazy. For a lack of a better term, you’re traveling and girls are throwing it at you and sometimes your catching it,” he confessed. “[I wasn’t cheating] the whole time but you know we were only married for less than a year.”

“There was a point where because I bought us a house and we were living on opposite sides of the house. We were technically married but you’re going two or three days living in the house and you aren’t even talking to, you talking about walking up and down the stairs past each other and you aren’t even talking.”

After their divorce, Mekhi says he was actually relieved:

“I was kind of relieved. I had developed this bald spot in the back of my hair because I was stressed and I didn’t even know it was stress. But once we got separated and I didn’t make it hard, I left her with the house and all of that and just left. I left with my clothes and my whip so then I was cool.”

Malinda and Mekhi have both moved on. Malinda was married to rapper D-Nice from 2008-2010, but they have since divorced and she’s happily living up the single life now.

Mehki had his second son, Mekhi Jr., with his then-girlfriend, Oni Souratha, in 2007.

After he and Oni broke up, Mekhi eventually married his wife, Reshelet and they have no children together as of yet.
