Tashera Simmons is speaking about her marriage to rapper DMX. She is now divorced and moving past all ties to him. She is focusing on her upcoming reality show and tell-all book.
She says that her book will be about the family she raised with DMX. Unfortunately he apparently had children with other women. Four children to be exact. She talks to VIBE about her husband's infidelity. Tashera says that she knew of one child that he father in Maryland and that was it. DMX was later ordered to pay the mother $1.5 million in damages for telling Sister 2 Sister magazine that she raped him to get pregnant.
Through it all Tashera decided that she would stay with him because she did love him. Then it got too hard after all the child support suits that were continuously being filed against him.
She tells VIBE,
"He had four other children out of marriage and I didn't know. I only found out about one, and it was the one in Maryland that was public. It was all over the news and I still was gonna try to make it work [but] after we did the show Soul of a Man, I guess the women felt some kind of way because he was doing a lot of paying child support behind my back and giving them money without me knowing anything. So once he came out in interviews saying that this is my only daughter and this is my family I guess they started feeling some kind of way and they started sending lawyers and and all these child support suits to my house and that wasn't acceptable. I just felt like with the drugs, that in itself is mentally draining. I felt like since we've been together for so long I didn't want to give up on him."
