That’s when Christina—who was married to Kenan, 47, from 2011 to June 2022, when he filed for divorce—came into the picture.
“This lady was the only one to call me on my s–t, help me with my s–t,” he explained. “She helped me with my therapy journey and she told me things about her life that made me look at a lot of people involved differently. And in that time, we fell in love.”
But according to Chris, it wasn’t an easy decision to explore a romantic connection with Christina.
“I felt bad from the start,” he added, noting it was like “an emotional double-edged ass sword.”
He later continued, “But I did choose love.”
And he claimed that Kenan—who shares kids Georgia Marie, 11, and Gianna Michelle, 7, with the Garden by Evangeline founder—wasn’t totally in the dark about the couple’s connection. According to Chris, the pair—who also worked together on NBC’s Kenan from 2021 to 2022—had a chance to discuss the budding connection.
“We were cool and we continued to work for a year after we talked about it,” agreeing to “just keep this s–t under wraps,” he revealed. “And as soon as everybody found out, and s–t changed.”
