Leaving the drama behind him! Darius Jackson has been pretty silent following the aftermath of his controversial tweet about Keke Palmer.
As previously reported, Jackson who shares an adorable child with the actress, took to Twitter last month and criticized Keke, who was seen wearing a see-through dress to Usher’s Las Vegas show. In a now-deleted tweet, Jackson said, “It’s the outfit tho.. you a mom,” he replied to the clip of the R&B legend serenading her. Despite the instant online backlash, he stood by what he said. He said in a follow-up tweet Jackson added, “We live in a generation where a man of the family doesn’t want the wife & mother to his kids to showcase booty cheeks to please others & he gets told how much of a hater he is. This is my family & my representation. I have standards & morals to what I believe. I rest my case.”
Since then he hasn’t spoken out on the incident. However, amid the “Nope” star’s new musical collab with Usher, titled “Boyfriend,” a close source who exclusively spoke with @People said Jackson has since “moved on” from the drama and is making new moves of his own!
As of right now the insider didn’t share the status of their relationship, and neither has the parents publicly. However, the source note that Jackson is currently focused on an acting career. As for co-parenting, the source adds: “You don’t have to be in the same household to be good parents.”
