Tisha Campbell-Martin Isn’t So Sure About Dating in 2018 After Receiving Unsolicited Nude Pics

Tisha Campbell-Martin is continuing to sort through the details of her divorce from husband Duane Martin but as she does, she is continuing to enjoy the single life and has confirmed she’s back on the dating scene.

The co-host of “The Soul Train Music Awards 2018” told “The Real” on Dec. 8 that she was on the hunt while still hanging back and enjoying life solo.

“It has to be someone who’s evenly yolked,” she says of the kind of guy she’s seeking. “Somebody who loves my boys. … But dating is weird now … y’all do different stuff. Like the texting … Oh! And then the pics are disrespectful! You know what kinda pics I’m talking about. Don’t send me no discombobulated … looking things to me! I don’t wanna see that!”

Campbell-Martin is in the midst of settling a divorce from her husband of 20 years with whom she shares two sons: 9-year-old Ezekiel Martin and 17-year-old Xen Martin.

The former “Dr. Ken” star is hoping Martin will provide spousal support and in documents filed in September, Campbell-Martin stated his $750,000 worth of shirts show why he should be shelling out alimony.

As for the actress’ dating woes, fans who are in similar stages of their romantic lives can relate. And they shared as much in the comments section of the clip.

“It’s true the single dating world is changing so bad and it’s disgusting. No one wanna see that ewww 😷”

“Pics are #DISRESPECTFUL lol.”

“Girlfriend has got a taste of what dating life is all about it nowadays which are nothing like when she and her husband first got together. This is something we’re all going through, the mind games, the constant texting, and the asking for pictures instead of meeting in person. It’s unbelievable and very disheartening! And you said it right Tisha, the Lord Jesus Christ! Standing ovation on that!”

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.
