Keyshia Cole gives an update on career, baby and relationship with estranged family.

After hearing all the rumors that are making the rounds on the internet, Keyshia Cole released the following statement:

To all my friends and fans – It’s time that I clear the air. It’s not a secret that I haven’t been in contact with my mother Frankie, and my sisters Neffe and Elite and I never wanted to air out our differences to the public. While I won’t go into detail here I find it necessary to let you guys know I decided to stop communication with them because I was at a point in my life where I needed serenity and peace to move forward. Please know I love my family very much but it was time to let it go. You guys are a witness to a lot of what was happening from watching on air and online. Now that I am becoming a mom my passion for having a loving and peaceful home for my child is my #1 priority. It’s very important to both Daniel and I. My plate is very full; I have a new baby coming, we are planning our wedding and I am working in the studio on a new album that I am close to completing. The stress that my family is giving me with their constant false reports is not healthy and it’s not what I need at this time in my life. Please understand that there are only a few people that can officially confirm or deny anything that’s happening in my life and that’s me, Daniel, and my publicist, Tresa Sanders. And my girl Monica never lies.

Love Your Girl,

KC

Frankie: “Keyshia & Daniel are already married”

Keyshia Cole to release new album this year

Her mom doesnt act like a mother runnin around with 18yr old boy friends an havin her legs all open on pictures an stuff,Plus attackin Chill from TLC. she just does nasty an stupid things nobody should have to stay around an deal with drama an bulls**t all the time even if it is family.

    Its crazy how family can be the ones that are not the supporting ones in your life. I take my hat off to her cause she really tried with them. It was just to much drama and im sure she was getting more drama from them then anyone else in her life. Good luck KC. Im ready for the next album

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/gezzygurl-101/ gezzygurl-101

    Keyshia-girl; I think that you are doing the right thing Distancing yourself from your MoM and sisters. If It’s anything like we were viewing on TV..I don’t blame you! Every body needs peace and serenity at some point In their lives. You are focusing on your baby’s and fiance at this moment and that’s good! Your baby comes first. God Bless you and yours! You’re one of my favorite female singers..keep doing your thang girl!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/kya8484/ kya8484

    I dont blame her cause if my family acted the way hers does, i would cut them off too!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/drudesti/ drudesti

    I must say that letter was written with class and style. KC did not belittle or put anyone down nor did she have to because she is right…All that tuned into her show were witnesses to the madness and insanity. I have always admired KC and her raw and natural vocal cords and her beauty. I always thought she handled herself better than the rest of her family. If you love someone set them free… KC gave her mother and sisters a foundation that included, homes, money and fame, it is time for them to fly on their own now. God Bless KC and her journey to have a tranquil and peaceful family.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/monqiue00/ monqiue00

    ok that’s a crazy move!! who family don’t give them problems and drama, but at the the end of the day they your family and ya’ll love each other. kc family would have never been know of if SHE didn’t put them on show from the begaining!! we not born with a choice of who we want or sisters, brothers, mother and fathers to be caue if we was u best beleave ppl would choose differ. so i think she need to get over it and be a grown adult and deal with the fact that she has biological family and a extended family. cause truth be told some ppl wish they had at least one of them or that they was still here with them so they can give them some drama!!

    KC I am going to tell you the GOD’s Honest Truth about family. Sometimes, you have to love them from afar! If this is what it takes for you to have peace, serenity and joy in your life….girl DO IT! For the sake of your sanity and your growing family…say no to stress!!! You will feel much better about this. Let both Frankie, Neffe and Elite finally learn to stand on their own! Like my sister once said,”sometimes you only have enough breath and strength for yourself!” MUCH LUV!

    im glad she distance herself from them. all of them are embarrassing, disturbed, messy, bogus and look like they dont have a clue on how to get along and have peace in their lives. and if we would have never known keyshia cole they wouldnt have gave a damn about keyshia or even attempt to find her esp that crackie frankie. now when she become famous they all become famous? hell no they need to start from ground zero, stay out the cameras, hustle and work themselves to the top the legitimate way. stop trying to mooch off keyshia’s money and get a peace of mind. great blessings keyshia. ill be waiting on the album

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/bLuvidPrince/ bLuvidPrince

    Do yo’ thang KC. Lookin’ forward to your new album to drop.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SexyMoneyMaker/ SexyMoneyMaker

    Now that was real right there, it was to the point, but not rude or bellittling in the least bit, fam can be a mess and yes in order to have peace in your life you have to get the vultures and evil doers out of your life. It aint where she IS its where she WANTS TO BE! and thats left alone….you go girl smart move and best wishes.

    here’s to a happier future from http://www.swaggtalk100.net

    Now I’m going to be honest and address all of those who think “family” means you should forget that you need peace, rest and your sanity. I get so tired of people using family as an excuse to be forgiven for their actions. Right now I deal with members of my family who call only when they need money or the use of my vehicle. I have friends with more respect for my status as a single mother and full time student and not long ago working full time as well. Keisha is probably much busier than I am so I can’t totally understand her need for a calm atmosphere for herself and in time her baby. You can’t and shouldn’t raise a child around a bunch of foolishness regardless of who is initiating it. As a mother it’s her job to raise her baby “her” way regardless of “family.” Blood lines does not mean we have to deal with someone no matter what. All it means is that we’re related. Stress can kill you and that is a fact. So how idiotic is it to imply that she should let her family stress her knowing full well it’s unhealthy, especially in her prenatal state.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/helluva1/ helluva1

    Finally!!! KC you will do well, may GOD continue to bless you and Daniel. There is a time whe we have to let go of family and love them from a distance or we drown with them.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BLAK_BUTAFLY/ BLAK_BUTAFLY

    I feel her. I had to do the same with my dysfunctional family. Sometimes you gotta love some people from afar… “Family” is not a free pass to stress me out for life. I have mad respect for her for this. You’re a class act Keyshia1

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/DASOUFS1STLADY/ DASOUFS1STLADY

    It is so very easy for us who are on the outside looking in to say Keyshia is doing the right thing but if you think about it in almost every family there is that one or two relatives that has issues she needs to remember that no matter what Frankie gave her life and will ALWAYS be her mother drama or no drama simple as that otherwise congrats on your new baby and new found love,hopefully you can work out your differences with your family especially since you are expecting a new baby.

    Yes every family can have its dysfunctional moments, but dang does she have to keep having them! We all watched the show. We watched what they have been through and what they are still going through. KC helped her family out when most people who have said kick rocks and threw up the peace sign and done their own thing. Especially with a momma like Frankie! She helped a lot of family get on their feet, so I don’t blame her for what she is doing, she should have done it a long time ago. She got our own to look after now!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/brieman2002/ brieman2002

    keisha cole was one of the few reality shows i took the time out to watch. she did alot for frankie and neffie, and too see them act like clowns after the show puttin all the embarrasing stuff they were doing in the media like that i cant blame her at all.
    they used to be on the radio out here in atlanta and that sh*t set the black race back as far as beck is trying too do.
    if you noticed keisha wasnt even on the air anymore all the media wanted to put out was frankie n neffie, they dont want the world to see positive they want us to focus on the fools….glad keisha put the truth out and even more glad those two’s popularity died out. hopefully they can get back to respecting the hand that fed em and stop acting like they won the lotto and calm down

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BROWNSUGA_BEAUTIE/ BROWNSUGA_BEAUTIE

    keyshia live ur own life girl. your baby doesnt need to be around all that drama and bull. he/she needs a proper upbringing…something u didnt have. so u do whats best for u and ur child. but on another note i dont think u should sever all ties with them. allow frankie to be a grandmother and ur sisters to be aunts….but dont give them too much lead way…let them know there are boundaries…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BEAUTIFULWON01/ BEAUTIFULWON01

    I AM NOT MAD AT THAT KEYSHIA! EVEN US, WHOM ARE NOT IN THE SPOTLIGHT, HAVE TO COME TO A POINT IN OUR LIVES WHERE WE MUST DECIDE WHAT IS BEST FOR US AND OUR SITUATION AND UNFORTUNATELY, FAMILY SOMETIMES HAVE TO BE PUT TO THE SIDE IN ORDER TO HAVE THAT PEACE OF MIND. PEACE OF MIND IS SO INVALUABLE AND PRICELESS, SO WHEN EVER YOU CAN OBTAIN IT, CONTINUE TO HOLD ON TO IT AND DO WHAT’S BEST FOR YOU! ALWAYS A TRUE KEYSHIA COLE FAN!!!PEACE AND GOD BLESS!

    family is family no matter what. if you cut your mother off then what does that say about you. a man can’t trust a woman that gives up on blood. no matter what you go through we must remain strong .young black women has gotten so bold that they really can say that they cut thier mother and sister off . it’s not right. and sooner or later a man will show you that. the one you love the most.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MVP_Allah_Logic/ MVP_Allah_Logic

    Overall who is gonna benefits more from Black people seperating as a family ? Us or isnt it just another form of divide and conquer. now the tide dont rise and fall with KC decesions or any celebraties, and the end of the day all they do is sing and dance .
    she is doing the right thing fro that seed in her tho. Stress is very unhealthy

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/lifeline2773/ lifeline2773

    family is always family,you dont take no break from family.we all got them uncle’s aunt’s bros sis whatever.family is always family,and when every thing is given or tooken family while good or bad,crazy or cool will still be your family when all said and done.,and don’t forget your fam really know you for real for real

    they through her career OFF. yeah she invited them 2-ward stardom.. but they didnt take advantage of the opportunity. excellent KC

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/missstrings43/ missstrings43

    Good luck to her. I had to do the same thing last year. It really works when you finally learn how to let people go. It’s called loving on yourself and GROWTH!.,Good for you Kesh…..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/LiPzHeRe/ LiPzHeRe

    I think she should of dropped them people a long time ago but family is family.. She made a smart move she got a new man her baby she got her own thing now so blessings hope everything works out for you and LIFELINE I dont agree with that statement because at the end of the day Frankie was too CRACKED UP to be there and know her for real for real so its really not like that her mom is the lady that adopted her and was there for her when she needed her………

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/FSanchez_2005/ FSanchez_2005

    They used her but she used them too. She would not have the level of stardom if not for her dysfunctional family being on the first show. You know what they say all publicity is good publicity. If she don’t deal with the family issues she is running from she will repeat them. They all need therapy and Frankie needs to go back to rehab.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/butterswirl502/ butterswirl502

    THIS ISS CRAZY AND HER FRIENDS ARE REAL COOL WITH THEY FAMILY PRETTY SOON SHE WILL BE SAYIN SORRY ..ONCE SHE HAVE THAT BABY ITS GOING TO HIT HER THAT SHE MISS THEM 08 WHEN I HAD MY LIL BOI I FELL OUT WITH ALOT OF MY CLOSE FAM DUE TO HE SAY SHE SAY SHYT TWO DAYS BEING IN LABOR EVERY TIME I GOT A KNOCK AT THE DOOR I WAS HOPING IT WAS MY MOM NEVER ONCE IT WAS HER I WAS ACTUALLY CRYIN WISHING SHE WAS THERE TO WIPE MY TEARS AWAY LIKE SHE WAS THERE FOR MY SISTER .MY POINT ISS ITS NOTHING LIKE YOUR FAMILYS LOVE…

    Sometimes you have to feed your family with a long handled spoon, but you still feed them. Hopefully Keisha will be a better parent than her life-giver Frankie.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Gentleman_By_Heart/ Gentleman_By_Heart

    Its just sad that you can’t even talk to your family without so drama.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/choc68leggz/ choc68leggz

    I dont blame Keisha for her decision and Im not mad about how things went down but sometimes in our lives, especially dealing with family, we have to step away from them and maintain a sense of balance. Regardless of whether the situation is good or bad, God shows us that we have to break away from those closest to us to see the light! Hopefully this will give her the peace and serenity she needs to grow in life. Drama isnt for everyone and I seriously wouldnt deal with my family if there was always drama! Its just not good to indulge in so much negativity, regardless of the past…. the point is to make or create a better future!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/PLEASURE2K/ PLEASURE2K

    Sometime you have to do what you don’t want to do, to make things right. it is called being an adult. We all have to make the hard decisions in life sometimes. Keyshia’s family is the most disfuntional family I ever seen. Just because you were born into it, doesnt mean you have to continue the ugly cycle. Keyshia was smart to make this decision for her soon to be here child. There is no way in hell, I would subject my child to people like that.. family or otherwise.
    Keyshia lived her life just fine without her life giver, all her life. She owes them nothing. They should be getting themselves together and trying to find out how they can make Keyshia’s life and thier own better.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/LastManStandingTall/ LastManStandingTall

    Keyshia’s a better woman by leaving her drugged-out, trashy family alone. Good for her…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/LUNATIK713/ LUNATIK713

    She definitely did what she needed to do for her own sanity and peace of mind I’m proud she did it with dignity and class. She finally see’s that your family can pull you down quicker than a stranger will.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Honey_Dipped04/ Honey_Dipped04

    I do not blame Keyshia one bit after reading this i felt she did the right thing i felt like the show her sister and her mother did was an embarrassment to keyshia and a embarrasment to the black community don’t get me wrong we all have family members like that and we should love our family no matter what there circ**stances are but to air it on national t.v. was ridiculous i stand behind you 100% Keyshia you have to do what you have to do to have a peace of mind for you and your family and if the resolution is keeping your distance so be it…just put them in Gods hands and love them and your doing your part.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Sub-Negro/ Sub-Negro

    Sites like HB need to stop giving Frankie all this attention she craves and BET for giving her own reality show.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/biglegs30/ biglegs30

    Keyshia, is on some BS! She knew how her family was before she put them on her show. She wanted her to family to be together so bad, and she loved them so much, until the show aired and everybody seen that her momma was still a hot mess crackhead, and her sister was a baby making ghetto bird! But that’s what she wanted, so don’t be ashamed of them now! Be careful what you ask for you, because you just might get it!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BreakitDown69/ BreakitDown69

    I know it’s good to have a relationship with her family. But come on, family will bring you down faster than strangers. It’s hard to have one, when your fam keeps hitting you up for loot even after you ask them how they are. Note to her family members, I have three, make that four words of advice: Get a damn job! They should be grateful, since they wouldn’t have any of that stuff in their homes if it wasn’t for Keyshia’s success.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/EbonyiisAKA/ EbonyiisAKA

    What was the big secrect about her having a baby? When you become an entertainer, certain parts of your life you fans would like to know. It’s about time she stopped sheltering out to her family. Her accountant told her that a long time ago. She’s going to be broke if she doesn’t stop taking care of everyone and start focusing on herself and her soon to be family. Frankie has issues that she needs to deal with as well as Neffie. Elite “seems” to have some what of a stable head on her and will do fine. Neffie needs to stop having babies by every man she sleeps with. What is she showing her daughters? Keisha has come from a long way, she’s found love and happiness (in the words of Al Green) and I wish her that and many more.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Flgirll_99/ Flgirll_99

    I don’t blame her. It’s sad that she has to pull herself away but I know I wouldn’t want to be associated with that kind of negativity when I’m trying to make improvements and stay positive. Do what you need to do Keyshia, you don’t owe an explanation for making the choices needed to make you and your future child happy. Sometimes that’s even pulling away from family that make your life difficult. Sad, but do you.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sexyPhoenix88/ sexyPhoenix88

    I am NOT mad at keyshia for that.. her family is a disgrace and i’m sure she is embarrassed at s**t at them.. she is doing so well and growing up moving on in life and her crackhead mom, over fertile sis, and the others aren’t doing anything but bringing her down. So power to her and i wish her the best

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/bignajee/ bignajee

I AM GLAD THAT YOU R HAPPY AND I WISH YOU THE BEST WITH YOU BABY AND YOUR MARRIAGE KEEP FAMILY OUT OF IT AND YOU WILL HAVE A LESS STRESSFUL LIFE. THIS IS COMING FROM ONE WHO KNOWS AND UNDERSTANDS.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MandaPanda77/ MandaPanda77

    I’m sorry to say that I THINK this move was LOOOOOOOOOONG overdue. Her family took advantage of her, embarassed her, and DEFINETLY used the reality show to promote themselves and make $$$$$. They are very much a disgrace and extremely disfunctional. Keyshia was obviously looking for a more “normal” family relationship and did everything in her power to work that out on the show.
    In the end u can’t ruin your life b/c somone else can’t get their sh*t together!!!! And just b/c they’re family doesn’t mean they get a pass on their behavior!!!!!!!!!
    GOOD LUCK KEYSHIA u are a beautiful and gifted individual!!! Much love.

    KML-at the comments but,they are all so true. Im happy she has moved on and maybe Frankie will sit her a$$ down somewhere and get some real damn help. As for her sister with the kids they need to stay close and she can give her some tips on-what to do. I know the last time I saw them all together Keyshia was real close to her sisters kids.

    Keshyia all I gotta say it’s about time.Forget what people say ,”that’s family you should never turn your back on your family”.The truth is sometime your family can bring you down specially when they don’t have God as there head.Find peace sista and pray that your family finds peace also ,that peace is in the Word of God……then build a relationship with your family based on that. Remember respect them treat them as you want to be treated….but don’t let them make a fool of you……PEACE

    I agree with everyone elses comments. Never turn your back on family because they are the only ones that make you feel like yourself in the end. Cutting them off financially is the right decision, but I am sure that before the show aired she knew how her family was. Both parties graciously received fame. Let her get her life together with her new man and child (I am very happy for her by the way) then see about family. Stop letting cameras in your life though you know they hurt US more than help us. Counseling is a great idea, but not publicized. So after you get settled Keisha get some real counseling for you and the family. Remember they love you and at the time they are just lost.

    I think she is making the right decision… Frankie is just her mother by blood she didn’t raise Keisha and KC tried to help this woman for the sake of family and love but she didn’t appreciate it at all and did nothing but cause hurt and strife in Keisha’s life so as far as turning your back on family or her being wrong for that I’ll just say just because you’re blood related doesn’t make you family.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/themix/ themix

    yes, yes yes,,,move on, her family needs to get their own life, and not bring their life to Keyshia, I’m glad she is moving on….I hated that show, watched it once and that was it….instead of taking singing lessons and joining keyshia in back up songs, her family chose to just sit back and spend Keyshia’s money….without Keyshia that show would not be possible, if the media needs that kind of entertainment, go to the real ghetto streets and interview a real ghetto family, not to say that hers was’nt, but their are other family who we consider ghetto, but not like that of Keyshia, sorry, all that drama in one family on every show, seems like a real put on by her family, all ghetto familys do not have that kind of drama everyday. Every so often drama will arise, and thats just not with ghetto families, but with all families, The media needs to get the a real family that is not doing so well, and have a show about them, this way, the family will do better, because they now have a show.. Here it is,,,give a poor family a show, let us see how they may rise or fall, with the help of money to get them started with what ever they need to do to make it.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/msbrooklynn/ msbrooklynn

    Keyshia Cole is so full of s**t. The first season of her show she wanted to act like she had it so rough and it was hard growing up but the truth be told is that it was hard for Neffie. Keyshia was adopted, Neffie was the one growing up in crack houses and evertyhing else. How the hell she gonna say she is through with her family, she the one who put them out there in front of the world, if I knew I had a messed up family the last thing I would do would put them on T.V. for the whole world to see. Now that she has made her money off of them, she threw with them and thats messed up. Now that there is no more show she dont want nothing to do with them and thats f**ked up. If she wanted to help them she would have gotten them some help privately but she chose to exploit them on T.V. for a couple of dollars. KEYSHIA COLE IS FULL OF S**T!!!!!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ms_chokolate6/ ms_chokolate6

    Thats whats up right there…I really respect that because if I was in the same situation I would do the same thing. I see how her family acts and that is just too much negativity. Especially for her at this time in her life when she is getting ready to give birth. Seriously what person needs that in their life. She is strong because if i were in her shoes, I would have cut ties with them along long time ago. Thats crazy…family will do you dirty. Instead of letting the past be the past and setting aside all differences to move further in life, they rather dwell on the negative s**t. Grown adults should be living their lives in peace instead of acting dumb and ridiculous. To be honest, my opinion, if she would have stayed around, I really think she would go down hill. And to be pregnant…oh hell no….Stressing out for what??? To be in the hospital early with complications…Your doing the right thing…Stay strong and beautiful and congrads on everything.

And her continues to embarrass them every damn day. This website is fascinated with that crack head for some reason. Keyshia is a hoodrat too, she is just a hoodrat who can sing, and she cleans up well. She is better off without them trying to destroy her career. Yeah she used them and they used her that’s the GHETTO mentality (play or be played).

    I feel her, I went through the same with my family, Keyshia is strong, loving, and caring and sometimes people take your kindness for weakness, and when that happens you just have to part with folks. Much props to Kesh, cuzz by putting her family out there like that on national tv for the world to see thier issue’s and where she came from, that took a lot of courage, my Fam is the same, I went through the same *hit growing up, I’m from the same area as Keyshia, and when I became an adult I moved the hell outta that bad environment, our mother’s was in the prison, so “trust” I feel her, and I love you Keyshia for trying to make a differencies in your reoples life, but I know oh! to well how you can’t change people, you can only change yourself, so bigups! to Keyshia, she did what she had and should for her Baby 2 be and serenity and we all need it…….

    Peace to Keisha and BP folks,

    I would like to thank Keisha for being thoughtful enough to address the issue directly to us (her fans) and family like she did. There comes a point in everyone’s life when they decide/realize you can’t help, tolerate, or burden yourself with other people’s drama. To let go and learn from the past mistakes you’ve made and the ones people inflicted on you and your life. Some people just can’t seem to let go because they are truly afraid to move forward with thier lives and love to pull other’s into it with them like a security blanket. I saw a lot of my family in that reality show and can sympathize with what she is going thru or have been thru…Amen!

    The best thing about growing a strong cipher is building and nuturing as much positive energy and destroying any negativity that anyones throws at it. Even if that means removing urself from one cipher to move on to the next…using the knowledge & wisdom gained from previous situations…finally surrounding yourself with people with Like Minds and Like Goals. Your seed is a reflection of what you teach them and what you instill in them and your off to the right start for that young prince or princess.
    Peace be with you Keisha and like my Sistren Erykah says…”My cipher keep moving like a rolling stone”

    This speaks maturity and growth! I commend a young woman for stepping away from what she saw to be a toxic situation for the health of her family! I totally agree with her. We SAW with our own eyes the mess she put up with from her family. In her situation with the baby and preparing for marriage, she did ABSOLUTELY THE RIGHT THING by letting her family go to the backburner. She did give them a stepping stone. They’re grown and need to make their own way.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/mytgdman4u/ mytgdman4u

    Some of these posting are stupid! What the hell does Keisha have to gain by exing her family..Someone said she is trying to get rich, your stupid..The Keisha Cole show was real. SHe wanted to find her mother and have a relationship..I blame BET for letting it get carried away. Keisha didn’t want anything else to do with that crap thats why she didn’t do a 3rd season. If that was the case about making money she would have done a 3,4, Keisha Cole show. She is just a mature woman that has grown up and knows what she wants in life. Frankie and Nefe want to be Keisha. They probably were paying them a 1,000 a episode, Chump change..Keisha I admire you for trying to help your family out and sacrafice for them. They got a taste of blood and went crazy. Good luck to you, have your baby and raise that child with love in a home that is not disfunctional..Good luck Kisha and Lil Gibson(Boopie).Hate on Haters11

    to shine through u and @ the same time keep up nothing but hell and drama. I agree cut them a loose b/4 they stress and kill u. Ur #1 priority is ur new precious baby and ur husband 2 be. P.s Be of good cheer Keisha a lot of us

    This is for the best. She made an attempt to help them out, and everytime u turned around they were actin straight PROJECT. She didnt have to do anything to begin with. They have (or had, not sure) their own show, so they can make their own money. To the person who said Keisha got rich from her reality show…..whats the weather like on the planet u live on? U do know she was already famous and selling records before that show even started, right? And what did Frankie or Neffie do to help her get her record deal? She has no obligation to do anything for ANYBODY except her child. I personally think Frankie still smokin and we’ve seen Neffie go BANANAS, who’d want to raise a child in that atmosphere? She has enough stress in her career she doesnt need any added bulls**t.

    Dearest Keyshia

    As a loving fan I was wondering what it would take for you to take this bold step in life and now we all know it’s the love of your unborn child. I am very proud of you for exhibiting the escence of a mother’s love. I know it’s not easy to make the break but it is for the best. I saw the pain in your eyes on one episode of your reality show when you invited your pastor to talk with your family and they (to put it mildly) showed out, still you stuck with them; I hope they understand that you can not this time and it’s for the sake of your sanity, your marriage and your child.

    Whatevers clever…Look! how is it that you “part ways” with your family that you put on in that false reality show claiming that family is such a priority in your life.she should’ve never went public with that when she knew how they were. No, what’s really good is that ms cole has become so entangled in her relationship with that BOY friend of hers, and right now the only thing that matters is him while the honey moon is good, but mark my word, when the young boy’s eyes start to wonder because he didn’t forfill all of his “wonder” years, I wonder who she’s going to turn to for support when the honey moons over,and i doubt her future “ART” will be the same because you can only make so many songs abut yo baby’s daaaaaady, and how you shoulda cheated on him. Trust, I wish her the best, but these public, celebrity hook ups are good only for Vh1 drama. Wake me up when it’s over…zzzzzzzzzzz

    i understand keyshia cole’s dilemma. keyshia was reared in foster care by loving parents who taught her values, and how to behave in public. she sought out her biological family, who have no values and are basically uneducated and ignorant. she has nothing in common with them. it is time for her to move on.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Azrael3/ Azrael3

    I am really surprised at the comments that many posters have made in criticism of KC’s choice to distance herself from her family. Some of you criticise her for turning her back on blood, but try walking in her shoes; she has her OWN family (an unborn child) to think about. She needs to be in a place of peace for this baby and I don’t blame her for not wanting to be around a bunch of drama and undue stress.

    That she did a reality t.v. show about her finding her biological family is irrelevant. The fact is that these people are opportunists and leeches and would have have embarrassed her regardless of the t.v. show.

    Not only that, she wasn’t the one who severed the family ties first: her “jankie-ass” crackhead mother (Frankie) did. She forfeited her right to motherhood years ago. KC did what she did for herself; it was to find answers. Now that she knows how that side of her family is, it is time to move on.

    Aww here we go! everytime someone go through something, someone who has no clue of their own biblical history come with some nonsense about a fictitional character named”Jesus” Show me where the letter J origionated in the hebrew language.(FYI) His name is YESHUA.. If you’re going to attempt to speak truth,and wisdom, then speak the whole truth, and not the eurocentric fraternal version of the truth.Isn’t it ironic that the same euro christian religion is the one who condoned enslaving your ancestors, as well the same religion that the KKK worshiped right before they saddled up to burn someones house down.But i understand your religious delima. when a people are in captivity, they become sympethetic to their kidnappers over time,and then they start to mimic their culture. This is the same religious doctrine that supports the polerization of innocent nations with rich natural resources.. Need i say more? and they say Jz worship the devil?

    The_Donlamb, you wrote: “I do not agre nor do i support exploiting Ghetto laced drama played out on a national platform.We wouldn’t even be talking about this if she had not put them in the spot light.”

    Fair enough. I don’t support ghetto-operas either. However, as I wrote before, that Frankie and Neffie would have found some way to be in the spotlight, even if there were no reality show. Look at how other tailcoaters of celebrities–Amber/Kanye West, Lauren-what’s-her-name/Diddy, Federline/Brittany Spears, etc–the list goes on.

    In one of your previous posts, you also asked who she will turn to for support when the father of her children abandons her (or words to that effect). I say that she SHOULD turn to the people who had been rallying for her all this time, and I am hoping that was her adoptive family.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SWEETASSUG/ SWEETASSUG

    She has her on life to live…. KEYSHIA made an attempt to help HER FAMILY out, They did not appreicate her help….Everytime u turned around they were actin LIKE they didn’t have home training…lol…I know she wish she had of left them under the ROCK she found them…They were all disfuntional, don’t know how to act in public let along in private…… She didnt have to do anything to begin with. They have their own show, so they can make their own money. To the person who said Keisha got rich from her reality show…YOU ALL do know she was already famous and selling records before that show even started, RIGHT?…… She has no OBLIGATIONS to do anything for ANYBODY except HERSELF AND FAMILY……… Who’d would want to raise a child in that atmosphere?…… She has enough stress in her career she doesnt need any added crap…Her NEW FOUND FAMILY needs to move on and act like they have the sense that GOD gave them and get their shyt together……….BOTTOMLINE….WHAT WERE THEY DOING BEFORE SHE LOOKED THEM UP….MY POINT EXACTLY…LMAO….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/rene1953/ rene1953

    I give Keyshia a lot of encouragement in her time right now. I watched the reality show one time and saw just how her mother and sister act. I understand her mother’s been to prison and hasn’t been around her child but that doesn’t mean she has to act the way she does. I myself went to prison and lost contact with my children but by the grace of God they are in my life now. It’s time for her mother to grow up and be an adult. All the stupid talking, clothes wearing and disrespecting is over. She toooooo old. Neffe can’t help the way she feels because of what she’s been through without her mother. What she needs is a mother not thug. It’s time for Frankie to see the light and it’s not doing the things she’s doing. I’m glad Keyshia has a good man in her life and is thinking about her new family. Maybe when Frankie sees that she’s going to be distant again from her daughter, she will grow up.

    I feel ya,KC.I would do the same thang.It’s gets tiring,frustrating, and old to have to sit around and babysit grown people all the time.I can RELATE.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/The_Golden_One/ The_Golden_One

    I agree that she needed to cut all negativity out of her life, but stopping communication with her family is only going to make the situation worse. Pretty soon we will see a family feud. While I do support Keyshia in making such a hard decision, I believe that a lot of the unnecessary drama could have been avoided if she just remained to help her family from a distance and not put them on television for the world to see. Some things are better off kept away from the public. I pray that her and her family can reconcile their issues and that she has a healthy baby and fufilling marriage.

    The_Golden_One, you wrote, “…I believe that a lot of the unnecessary drama could have been avoided if she just remained to help her family from a distance and not put them on television for the world to see.”

    I trust that KC acknowledges any mistake that she may have made in having her family on the show (although I believe that they would have been a hot-mess without it)….but I also place half the blame on Frankie and Neffie (and whomever else decided to participate).

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Eden78/ Eden78

    I dont blame her for removing herself from the situation. Actually she probably never should have gotten into the situation, but she was trying to do the right thing. They have enjoyed the lap of her luxuries long enough. its time for her to let go and let GOD…maybe she should have done that in the first place.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/bjs2479/ bjs2479

    Keyshia, I think the descision to cut your family off might be a good one. If all they are doing is hurting you and putting undue stress on your life, they should be let go. But I have put you on blast a little. Why did you have them on TV in the first place? I don’t know if you did to get more attendtion, more fame, money, or to generally find them and help them but it was a bad idea, like throwing gasoline in a fire to put it out. These people should never got on TV because they can’t handle it. So I wish you, your baby , and boyfriend the best, and hopefully you can sing more uplifting song about the man in your life.

    Ms. Cole, must do what’s right for you and the baby and its awesome that Daniel is supporting your decision. Sometimes, we must take a step back from the family drama so that you and your baby will be healthy. That’s why I live in one state and my family lives in another..Don’t need the negative family drama wearing you down.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Tapho/ Tapho

    I don’t blame her. Though her family was really entertaining to watch on TV, I can only imagine what it’s like to deal with that mess every single day. Family comes first, but when your family starts dragging you down, who do you trust?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/CristalMoet/ CristalMoet

    I feel Keyshia on that she needs alone time for her man and her baby she doesn’t need to mess up her relationship with her good man and new baby over family drama and issues she’s doing the right thing by staying away family sometimes can really be a trip that I know.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/the12nv42k2/ the12nv42k2

    I think she should be ashamed…true its alot of drama…but she new the fire was there when she LOOKED for frankie…she had adopted parents who are completly opposite of frankie. She knew her mother was a crack addicted prostitute with way tooo many children recently out of jail. Her parents told her whats good but she still persued her. In my opinion she should have sucked it up, have visits, and kept it cute. She knew what she was getting into and I think its a slap inthe face to look for her mother, then get rid of her.

    It’s an ugly trend broke ass family members getting reality shows because they are related to a famous person.

    Frankie & Neffie

    Brooke Knows Best

    The Jacksons—yeah I said it.

    Even Fantasia’s fam is on her show so she can get the out of her damn pockets. These family members think they don’t have to work because they are the sibling or parent of someone famous and they deserve money just for being related to them. But hey, if it gets them out of the stars pockets…..

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jeanelle_79/ jeanelle_79

    i agree i had to separate from some of my fam too…if what they coming with is unhealthy emotionally, and spiritually then they need to be put to the side for a min. this goes for fam and non fam. K.C do what you have to do for the sake of your child’s well being and yours. peace

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Azrael3/ Azrael3

    There is nothing wrong about Keisha seeking out her biological family. A lot of adopted/foster children do that to find answers, so she cannot be blamed for doing this.

    Obviously, anytime a person goes in front of the camera, there is some narcissism involved, but I don’t think she put them in the show to become (more) famous; she already had the fame, the money and the stature. I think that it was the timing. But hey–if she did do this to garner ratings, etc., then now she’s learned a big lesson. But remember, Frankie and Neffe are grown-ass women who decided to exploit themselves and got some money in the process. In fact, wasn’t Frankie supposed to be writing a book to inspire others? HA! The only that bytch can get inspired by is a cloud of smoke in a glass pipe. She never did anything in her fking life but pop out children and abandon them. I know dogs take care of their young better than this crazy ho. But I digress–my point is that if Frankie is obviously enjoying the benefits of her daughter’s success.

    Personally, if it had been me, I would have spun the show a little differently and shown KC’s adoptive parents a lot more and filmed their involvement in her life. I would have made the chickenheads minor. But that is just me. And lest we forget that there is nothing better than watching a bunch of niggaz tap dance and look like baffoons and sambos for our enjoyment.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/grambulance/ grambulance

    Initially I thought Keysha was just another hard knock life ghetto artist but through watching her show I saw her for who she is — an amazing woman!

    May peace be on to Keysha. Hopefully her mother and sisters will be able to attain the peace and clarity Keisha is finding in her life. Keysha’s getting it right and women of color need to get on it! She did her best to help her family but there is only so much one can do/take.

    Daniel better love her like he’s taking his last breath!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/DameDivalicious/ DameDivalicious

    I’m with Keyshia for cutting off her family since she is pregnant it is the right thing to do to have a positive environment. Keyshia’s family wanted to play victims all the hotdamn time but they need to take a leaf out of Mo’Nique’s book….stop being the victims, get proper therapy treatments and move on in life. Keyshia will be happy to know that many been where she’s at now and I applaud her for taking a stand against her family. That is a real grown mature woman thing to do something her own mother needed to learn herself.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sunflower2678/ sunflower2678

Good luck and stay happy honey- forget the haters- they just mad because they ain’t gettin the attention that were getting when ya’ll reunited

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/straight1/ straight1

    I understand why Keyshia Cole parted ways with her family with everything she is going through on her own and knowing that it takes alot out of a person. What she is doing does not make it right though because life is short and she does not know how long her family will be around. She should make the best of the time they have together by keeping in touch with them now and then. Not going to see them like it was before. I don’t think that would make her go crazy if she were to do that. Wishing her and the family the best for the new year and the future.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/toodelicious4u/ toodelicious4u

    I agree with Keyshia’s decision to avoid her family if they are causing issues. Sometimes it’s OK to isolate yourself from people to avoid, drama, anger, irritation, and confusion. Besides her decision, I’m extremely happy that Keyshia finally met a decent man and has chosen to start a family. I just hope that none of it interferes with her singing career. Much Luv and Good Luck!!!!!

    I’m with KC 100%, but (yes there’s a but) sometimes you have to just let go and let God. God can deal with them better than she can and that’s something we all need to live by. Now as far as cutting them off by not communicating at all I’m not sure of. My mother passed away after me not seeing or communicating with her for 8yrs and that cut me like a knife. Like KC, my mother was so deep into drugs but my outcome was different drugs took her life. I’m saying that to just say this “family will be just that…ppl r pple nobody is perfect. we all have made mistakes in our lives’”. KC need to learn that she can’t save them if they don’t want to save themselves.

    Best wishes to you KC, husband to be and child. God Bless!

Drama, man…everytime your folks would get in those high price restaurants or wherever YOU took them, it was a scene…and you would politely, exit…I’m with you. FINALLY, a younger generation person who is taking the responsiblility of saying, my child is more important, my well being is more important. You are now having YOUR OWN family. Tell your momma, your sisters and whoever else is about drama to step OFF! PEACE.

    i believe Keyshia is a little wrong. it is obvious that her family is not perfect. (as is every family). and i do not think it is right for her to use the excuse of a new husband and baby to leave her other family out of the picture. NO FAMILY IS PERFECT. but you make it work. it may take years . no one gave up on her during her music career.. NEFFE AND FRANKIE WERE BEHIND HER 100% OF THE TIME WHEN KEYSHIA BECAME A STAR. so to abandon them, after her new family, is pure ignorance

    I am so glad she has come to her senses girl you have your own family to worry about hunny keep it moving. when your family only want to take and exploit the hell out of you you gotta move around the last 4 KC concerts I been too frankie ghetto ass jumping all on stage “thats my baby” “holla” wtf no body wants to pay $100 to see frankie sorry. You can still have a relationship with your family but from a distance it doesn’t mean that you don’t love them. I grew up in the same family situation i was raised by my aunt and uncle and my mom and father resented them for me calling them mama and daddy and when the time came where i wanted to get to know them (“b/c it was the right thing to do”) i quickly realized i didn’t want to be around those kinda of ppl I wasn’t raised like the way they act and I am not going to put my kids around bad influences that not right to the children. May God bless you and your family KC

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/babygirl2452/ babygirl2452

    What people need to open up and admit and stop bulls*****ng themselves is that family is not always putting other family members best interest first. We all know that in many cases family will stick and put you in some very bad situations before a stranger will and this is real talk to those who are open enough to admit that. Keisha needs to focus on her, her child and her partner and her career. The rest of her family needs to stand on their own grown ass feet and not ride the coat tail. She has done all she can she can not change them nor live for them. Much respect to those who have posted similar responses. This woman is not responsilble for her family nor was she the one who tore it apart. Bless keisha and the path she must take to better her life.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Lindamcgruder/ Lindamcgruder

    I know that family is for life and when everybody leaves, family will be there. BUT, you pick your friends not your family. She can’t help who she is kin to. It was quite obvious from the tv show that her family was just leaching off of that girl. I read somewhere that Neffe made a statement that Kiesha didn’t buy her kids anything for Christmas. If it is true, Neffe should have not made a comment about it to the press. As good as KC has been to Neffe and her kids in the past, it was petty for Neffe to say that. She doesn’t owe them anything. Neffe needs to be talking about what their daddy didn’t do for them. Instead, she was trying to put Keisha on blast. I don’t even want to get started on Frankie. If she wants a decent home and if she wants to start her marriage on the right step, get those ignorant ghetto folks out of her life. They’re still family, just keep them at a distance.

    MissConvo when keyshia started her career Frankie was in jail and keyshia was carrying Neffe that doesn’t sound like support for keyshia. miss gemini a husband and wife is suppose to be forever also. i guess you have to be married to understand that and to have a successful marriage you have to realize that your union with your wife or husband is your first family now. keyshia only stated that she has to keep her family in a different priority space that’s all. i agree with those who said no family is perfect that’s why i feel she didn’t say she disowned them she just said her baby and her fiance is her first priority now and that’s the way it should be.

    Some people say “family is family” But it depends on that person’s family. I remember reading a story recently about a family who shunned a girl because she told about her being raped. The family said she brought shame to the family. Some families are good to a person and some people have family that is harmful to them.

    Different Strokes for Different Folks…..

    Keyshia certainly did the right thing by putting her baby and herself first. She did a lot to revive her birth family but it seems that Frankie doesn’t want a decent life, and never has. Poor Neffe and Elite are stuck with her. Women like Frankie should give all their kids up for adoption if they can find decent families to nurture them. Frankie wants the benefit of having children, but she doesn’t want the responsibility of raising them, and for that she is a SELFISH JERK who doesn’t deserve to be around her beautiful grandchildren.

    Thats real talk. I know for certain that there is a time to let people go, and its okay. You have greater responsibilities than to uphold grown folks. They got their own way now, at least. Sometimes that is the way it was suppose to be. I have had to do some similar things in my life, Its okay to let folks go, so you can get that peace in your heart that will allow God to bless you. Congrats on the whole package. Cant wait til your CD drops.

    I wonder what took her so long. She should’ve parted ways a long time ago. No offense but her mother and sister Neffe are total losers. I tried to give Neffe the benefit of the doubt but when got pregnant again, I gave up on her. She is ghetto and typical. Frankie is not worth much typing.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Ariesblood79/ Ariesblood79

    Good riddings kiesha! To me you really did not fit in with them, family or no family! They seem like they was bringing you down with all that drama, and ghetto fabulous attitude, from the mother’s on and off again drugs, to her sister neffe” baby daddy” drama, her mom and her “adopted” mom arguing…too much! She got enough to worry about girl, raise your new baby, concentrate on your wedding, and leave them “BROKE” hoez alone, cause they wouldn’t even have had the little 10 minutes of fame they had if it wasn’t for kiesha getting them in the door! So they need to come off that stuff bout not getting paid and all….why you still stuck around? Most people dont stay around if they aint getting paid, that would be a “Volunteer”…wouldn’t it? Looks like the money running out and they need more!

    Good 4 u, who needs all that extra drama, yelling, fightin n screamin!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/fannieonly1/ fannieonly1

    I don’t blame her for backing away from them. Coming from a big family myself, I understand how frustrating it can be to always have big drama going on. There is no way she will be able to continue her own struggle without closing the door on past ones. Frankie got too much stuff with her, and I think it is more her than it is Neffe or Elite.

    I’m happy for Keyshia Cole and excited to had hear that she had a beautiful baby boy, Congratulations on that! I think it was time for her to separate from her family no offense but as crazy and wild as her mother is and all that drama her sister have going on in her life like 4real who needs all of that each and everyday. No soon to be first time mom needs to be around that. I can tell that Keyshia loves her family very much so if they love her the way that they alway’s sayin it than they should have respected her choice. After everything she had gone though in life she deserve happiness and no drama. So keep doing yo thang Keyshia Cole .

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/iamblackie/ iamblackie

    I THINK THATS ITS A SHAME THAT KEYSHIA’S FAMILY IS TRIPPING LIKE THEY ARE. KEYSHIA DID ALL SHE COULD TO BRING HER MOTHER OUT OF HER POVERTY STRICKEN STATE TO SHOW HER A TASTE OF THE “GOOD” LIFE….I MEAN DANG SHE HAD HER WORK CUT OUT WHEN IT CAME TO HER MOTHER. AND LORD KNOW WHERE POOR EFFIE WOULD BE IF KEYSHIA HAD NOT BEEN THERE FOR HER…..PROBALY STILL CHASING AFTER THE MAN SHE LOST TO HER COUSIN.

    Good for you Keyshia…I just read this because I have so much going on in my own life..but she is one of the few artists I try to keep up with as a fan of her music and reality shows…I am just glad that she is at a place where she can concentrate on her and not all the drama that goes on in her family..I am so sorry for her that her mom is the way she is..it is embarassing for her, I am sure..good luck to Keyshia Cole and her new baby and upcoming wedding and in life, in general.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/phazex_female/ phazex_female

    I was at a point in my life where I needed serenity and peace to move forward.

    And this was all that needed to be stated publicly to her fan base. Privacy is one of the few things that I/we can SAVOR these days…and I’m very happy to know that she was able to finally realize…that it’s time. It is self-abusing when you do not take “me time” in my opinion.

    Good luck to this sista!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/yesimthatchick_30/ yesimthatchick_30

    Go Keyshia….. I dont think anyone is mad @ you for making that decision!!! you have 2 do what is best for you and your family….we all seen that you did all that you could for them but your best wasnt good enuff….some ppl will neva change even when it is for the absolute best in life!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/handy-man1/ handy-man1

    like they say what goes around comes around. life isn’t perfect, but i do understand the decision she had to make. but i want to say this, at the end off the day family is all you got and without that you have nothing. so this false perception of life is made up, all the riches will not make you happy. I think keisha was genuinly happy when her family was doing the show together but I could be wrong. and to add insult keisha would ruin her own kid life because the kid as a right to know were he or she come from and maybe the kid might bring the family back together. Frankie ass need to drop dead or clear it out. Neffie and elite I love you girl take what your sister show you or gave you and apply it to a business or make moves.

    Sometimes you have to love them from a distance, in order to have a peace of mind.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/khieneat/ khieneat

    Keyshia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I felt your stress and pain in the show. So, good for you! I was like when is she going to tell these negros to get up off theirs a**es and get a job, do for themselves and leave you the hell alone. You don’t owe them not a DAMN THING! Love them from a distance, because family is the first to pull you down and do you wrong. BELIEVE me I’m speaking from experience!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/CUZSHEFLOWLYKDAT/ CUZSHEFLOWLYKDAT

    For the record………. Neffe always kept a job! Ask ppl that were in California or Atlanta!***smh***Its just sad that a family and their struggles were exploited for the profit of others! with All the heart ache and misinformation caused by the show- I GUARANTEE they were not compensated enough! WHILE IT ENTERTAINED MOST OF YOU- PEOPLE’S REAL LIVES HUNG IN THE BALANCE!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Knowbody75/ Knowbody75

    Kieshya did what alot of performers do. She backed out of one arrangement for another that was 100 times as lucrative that would more than make up for the cost of a breach. I would have done the same thing, but she should have settled out of court. She cut it off with her jacked up family after she got with her new man who wasn’t going to deal with that chyt.

    i am glad kehsia made a decision for not only her but most important for her baby and her husband to be. just because you decide to put space in between your family des not make you a bad person. one thing you have learned is that u c0an take a person from one eniroment and place them in another enviroment but that does not mean they will change. and your family is living proof of this stituation. no one will chaged until they are ready to change and i am proud of u for making that decision for your life. honestly i get tired of seen that act a fool on tv and airing all their business to trhe world. we all know that people gp through things in life and if they take a step back and look at the stituation they will realize that bet isa just using them to get ratings. trust me the littlecheck that bet is cutting is not worth the headache. they need to stop looking a dollar signs and learn how to make it on their own. love u keshia.

    How can this girl come from the same gene pool as Neffie, Elite, and that sad person she calls her mother???? All she can do to get rid of them is all the better for her, because she has one sorry ass family!!! i wish she would remove the tats, get a fashion coordinator, because she has horrendous taste in clothes and never pick up a microphone to sing again!!!! Get rid of that train wreck, drug addicted Monica as a so-called friend, she is another ain’t s**t ass b***h!!!!
