If Eva Marcille hoped to successfully co-parent with ex-boyfriend Kevin McCall, all hopes of that have seemingly been dashed with his irate Instagram posts.

On Instagram earlier this week, McCall seemed to take issue with Marcille after she posted a photo of Sterling and McCall’s three-year-old daughter. In now-deleted posts, McCall slammed the “America’s Next Top Model” winner.

He took issue with Marcille’s supposed practice of witchcraft, which he did not approve of for their daughter.

McCall declared he’d scrub all photos of Marley Rae from his IG account.

“If you want her so bad, you can have her,” he wrote of giving up on seeing his 3-year-old child. “I’m deleting all memories of her. I’m not about to play any more games or participate in society’s joke of a child program,” he said. “[You’re] dead to me.”

When the photos made the rounds on social media, folks swiftly slammed him.

In response, McCall put the blame on Marcille, claiming she was still pinning for him — regardless of her new relationship.

“The only issue is her wanting to see me and since I don’t want her, she won’t let me see my kid,” he said in part.

But Marcille isn’t alone in her co-parenting drama.

Singer Tyrese famously called out his ex-wife Norma Mitchell Gibson on Instagram in September, implying she was dragging him through a custody battle because he moved on and married Samantha Lee.

“All I wanna do is co/parent [and] nothing else,” he wrote in a lengthy post. “Norma, I know you can see this. I’m sorry I got re-married, I’m sorry we didn’t work out, I’m sorry you haven’t been able to find another man since we separated…… Sometimes you get married and have kids and things just don’t work out, but I have NEVER wished harm on you……. I was hoping by now you got over what we used to be.”

After crying that he hadn’t seen his 10-year-old daughter, Shayla, in months, a judge ultimately granted the exes 50-50 custody.

For Marcille’s part, she has not engaged in a back-and-forth with McCall. In a Wednesday, Nov. 29 IG post, the former CoverGirl indicated that she was keeping the peace on her side.

The ABS Newsletter — Stories that matter, in your inbox.

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
