It’s never like me to comment publicly on private matters. But there’s something I need to get off my chest. It is with a heavy 3 that I share with you today that my relationship with Ella Simone has come to an end and we will be divorcing. Without question, launching her career and supporting her dreams for the past 10 years has been one of the top accomplishments of my life, second only to being her husband. But as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. At a time like this, it’s the love from every one of you who have rocked with me over the years that’s gonna get me through. All I ask is that you understand and give me some time and space to process and heal. Then it’s back to the hits! Peace and Blessings. —Elliot Majors

Jamie: Anybody else get the feeling Majors would be on the bad guy’s team in Stomp the Yard?
Jamie: Some folks are just born lookin like villains.
Sheryl: Mhmm. Yeah. I see what you mean. Very Jafarian.
Rodney: I just know Coco had to write this statement. Majors don’t know how to place a comma to save his LIFE.
Sheryl: The man’s a musical genius, not a grammatical one.
Jamie: Majors just wanted to upstage the you and Miles made on the internet…
Jamie: Couldn’t give you one day!
Rodney: Ella. Girl. You okay?

Ella, please pick up the phone when I call. This is getting to be ridiculous. I just heard the most upsetting news. I know it can’t possibly be true. But I would like some assurance from my own daughter. I deserve that much. Cousin Ada tells me that Elliot has announced your separation? Publicly? On social media? This is absurd. How could you allow this to happen? After everything he’s done for you. Everything we’ve sacrificed. Please tell me this is nothing more than salacious and misguided tabloid gossip and that I have nothing to worry about. And for God’s sake please answer the phone, Ella. It is unacceptable to keep me in the dark like this. What am I to believe?
