Tabitha Brown has responded to Wendy Williams after the TV host commented on her marriage.
Brown revealed last week that her husband Chance was able to retire from his job as a police officer with the Los Angeles Police Department after 15 years due to her recent successes — something she called a "dream finally come true." However, during the latest episode of her show, Williams criticized Brown's husband's retirement and predicted that their "marriage is going to be on real rocky ground" as a result.
On Thursday, Brown took to Instagram to share a video in which she addressed Williams' comments about her marriage.
"Wendy the pain you must be in to feel this way, honey, I'm so sorry," she began. "But listen, let me tell you this. Twenty-three years I've been with my husband, broke for a very long time together. Struggled for a very long time together. Succeeded for the last couple of years together."
The "Chi" actress explained that she and her husband agreed years ago that he would take a job to support her dreams. And now that she has found success, Brown said she is returning the favor by giving her husband the opportunity to leave his job and pursue his own dreams and career.
"I was his dog in the fight and he believed in me and we did it together for the last 15 years. I did every year with him in the LAPD and he did every year with me with rejection and nos in this entertainment industry," Brown said.
"However, God has blessed me…I've been praying on this for a very long time and it has now come to pass. That is the power of God. It's also the power of allowing God to be first in your marriage. That's how it remains successful, we keep Him first. He is first in our marriage. Not money, not business, not success, but God. He's first," she continued.
Brown ended her video by thanking everyone who sent her messages. She also encouraged them to pray for Williams and others who haven't found the love and support she has.
"Keep God FIRST! This is my word and prayer for @wendyshow and anyone else that doesn't understand this type of love and support. God bless y'all!" Brown wrote in the caption.
This came after Williams compared Brown's situation to her own issues with ex-husband Kevin Hunter.
"I was married to one of those. 'I make the money!' and so on and so forth. 'Go live your dreams! Open a business! Go, go, go!' See how that turned out," Williams told her audience on Thursday's episode of "The Wendy Williams Show."
"I predict that this marriage is going to be on real rocky ground in a moment. 'Live your dream'… They may invest in stuff and lose the money. I predict that this marriage is going to be on real rocky ground in a moment. 'Live your dream'… They may invest in stuff and lose the money," she said, adding, "No, you work! Being a cop was a big part of his identity, he liked it but she came to him and said that."
