It all started with an insecure boyfriend calling out on his girlfriend’s outfit and since then Keke Palmer and Darius Jackson have hit a rough patch. A few months back Darius publically shamed Keke for wearing a sheer garment at Usher’s concert. As the couple shares a child, Darius explained that his issue with that outfit was because she is a mother.
Darius was immediately criticized by the fans for mom-shaming Keke and in the failed attempt to manipulate the situation he said, “This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case.” However, Keke being a no-nonsense person did not tolerate this public insult and immediately unfollowed her baby daddy. And now if anyone knows to take revenge, it is Keke Palmer!
