Russell Simmons Kimora Lee, Yesterday the internet was abuzz with rumors that Kimora Lee Simmons and her man Djimon Hounsou were headed for a split, and today, Kimora’s ex Russell Simmons has taken to his blog to defend the mother of his children.
The hip hop mega mogul wrote on GlobalGrind.com that the notion of Kimora and Djimon fighting over his money is completely false, and chastised the New York Daily News for spreading the rumor..REPORTED
“I called Kimora when I saw all the gossip spreading about her and Djimon splitting and she said it was a waste of energy to comment,” Russell’s post began. “I’ll certainly do it for her and my family.”
He then went on to point-by-point set the record straight about Kimora’s relationship and financial status:
1. Kimora and Djimon are fine.
2. Kimora and Djimon are both doing extremely well in their respective endeavors and businesses and don’t need to fight over or waste energy on money issues.
3. I damn sure don’t pay nor have I ever paid alimony (Kimora does just fine). In no way do I support their lifestyle, so please don’t say they are fighting over MY money.
4. Yes she’s selling a house, but she hasn’t lived in it for several years since she built the house they currently reside in.
5. As for friction between us? There is none. I feel like I’m part of their family. Djimon and Kenzo are like my blood and Kimora is my best friend. We are partners in various businesses and in the really important business of raising our beautiful children.
Those paranoid types who are prone to believe conspiracy theories (or anyone who salivates at the thought of Kimora’s downfall) would be quick to point out that “Kimora and Djimon are fine” is not the same as “Kimora and Djimon are not splitting up,” but we are not that type. In fact, believe it or not, we would be sad to see the demise of this odd-yet-functional family unit. Kooky as they are, they make it work. And given what some other exes put their children through, we respect that they stick together.
Considering some of us think we deserve a medal for simply resisting the urge to set fire to our exes boxer briefs, Russell and Kimora’s (and Djimon’s, for that matter) amicable relationship at least deserves the benefit of the doubt.
