Russell Simmons‘ ex-wife Kimora Lee has something to say about the rape allegations he is facing.
Numerous women (including a cast member from MTV’s ‘The Hills’) have accused the mogul of sexual assault following the rise of the #MeToo movement which has inspired sexual abuse survivors to name and shame their attackers.
Things worsened for Simmons when the beloved actor Terry Crews revealed that he had made efforts to convince Crews to drop his efforts to bring his abuser, Adam Venit, to justice.
Today, Kimora has weighed in.
I have known Russell for over 25 years. We were close friends, married, divorced and have remained friends, co-parents and partners throughout it all. These allegations against him are nothing like the person I have known in all that time. I have known him to be a caring and supporting father and someone who has worked tirelessly to uplift disenfranchised communities.
She published the statement above days after he was slapped with a brand new allegation.
Tbh, she didn’t really “say” anything. The man she “knew” and the man he really is are two different people, as with anybody.
Well said. I agree 100%.
Russell and his people paid her to say this (and probably wrote that for her).
didn’t they start dating when he was already grown af and she was 17? Your not helping #nextcaaaase!!!
Yes he met and employed Kimora Lee when she was 17 and modeling. ….so what
