Kimora Lee Simmons Reportedly Fights Over Parking Space, Fans Ask Why She Hasn’t Dumped Husband Over His Legal Fight

Posted byBy Daryl Nelson | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Kimora Lee Simmons had an argument over a parking space and things got physical.

TMZ reports that it all went down in a FedEx parking lot last week in Los Angeles, and at first there was only verbal contention, but then the women shoved each other. Kimora left the scene after that, and later the woman filed a battery report against her.

Kimora Lee Simmons got into a physical altercation over a parking space while her husband faces 10 years in prison.

The 43-year-old mother also filed a battery report against the woman, and police are now investigating. They’re also reviewing surveillance footage to determine exactly what happened in the parking lot.

Meanwhile, Simmons recently shared a photo of Kenzo Lee, the son she has with actor Djimon Hounsou, and Wolfe, her son with the embattled businessman Tim Leissner.

In December 2018, Leissner was hit with a slew of criminal charges for his involvement in the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) scandal, where $4.5 billion was embezzled.

A lot of folks gushed over the photos of the boys and said they admired Simmons’ diverse family. But others brought up her husband, as well as his charges, and wondered why Simmons hasn’t divorced him yet — especially since he’s facing 10 years in prison.

“Dumped Tim Leissner yet?” someone asked. “We Malaysians want our money back that you guys are living on. Tim did not return the full amount of the Malaysian people’s money. Filthy thieves, Goldman Sachs. From CEO to Tim … their families [are] living on stolen money. Shame.”

Simmons hasn’t responded to the comments, nor has she said anything about the parking lot incident. The name of the other woman also hasn’t been revealed.

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.
