Before Nia Long Linked Up With Larenz Tate At The “Remembering Love Jones” Event At The American Black Film Festival, Her Former Romance Sparked Chatter
Before Nia Long’s recent appearance with Larenz Tate at the “Remembering Love Jones” event, her former romance with Ime Udoka was sparking chatter. As The Shade Room previously reported, in January 2024, Al Reynolds turned heads after sharing his thoughts on Long’s 13-year romance with Udoka and their decision to go their separate ways due to his infidelity.
At the time, Reynolds noted that Udoka was ordered to pay Long $32,000 in monthly child support. Additionally, he said that if he were Long, he “would’ve stayed there and ate [his] food.”
“This isn’t the first time this man has cheated on her, and I promise you if they’d stayed together, it wouldn’t be the last,” he said in part, going on to share why he believed Long could’ve made “better decisions” in their split.
