Jennifer Williams Fights Eric On Twitter; Chad Johnson Charged With Battery

‘Basketball Wives’ stars Jennifer Williams and Evelyn Lozada are both trying to get rid of their husbands that won’t go away – Eric Williams and Chad Johnson, respectively.

First, Jennifer and Eric are on the verge of being separated for as long as they’ve been married. Their divorce has dragged out through at least two seasons of Basketball Wives and it’s still going! Recently the estranged couple aired their dirty laundry on Twitter.

Eric called out Jennifer for apparently not returning his calls. The reality star seemed annoyed that her estranged husband only wants to further prolong their unnecessarily long divorce.

“@EricWilliamsYO what is there to discuss besides you dragging this court date to the MAX??? I been more than patient! Over it”

Perhaps Eric is hoping to tire our Jenn much like Chad Johnson is hoping to do with Evelyn. Lozada filed for divorce weeks ago following their domestic dispute however latest reports confirmed the former Miami Dolphin wide receiver refuses to sign the paperwork. Instead he prefers to tattoo his wife’s face to his leg and take responsibility for his actions every time someone on Twitter attempts to blame Evelyn. Maybe that approach may help Johnson as he’s facing a misdemeanor charge and possible time in jail.

The State Attorney for Broward County, Fla., filed the charge against Johnson on Wednesday. If convicted he can spend at least one year in jail.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
