It is an audio clip from Rickey Smiley’s nationally syndicated radio show, the Rickey Smiley Morning Show, produced by WHTA “Hot 107.9” Atlanta. In the video, Smiley’s colleague Gary With Da Tea talks about Tisha Campbell going back to her maiden name after her 2020 divorce from Duane Martin.
When the topic of Rickey comes up, he admits that Brenda, Brandon’s mother, never used Smiley as her last name. He admits, “He never took it,” though he added that it wasn’t intentional. He never had time. Then he and others briefly discuss the amount of documentation that is actually required to change your name.
“It’s really hard to change,” said Shawntae Harris-Dupart, aka Da Brat. “Social security, driver’s license, all our credit cards. It’s a lot.”
Brenda Smiley Job
Brenda Smiley reportedly works as a flight attendant at Delta Airlines. “He’s still flying Delta,” Rickey Smiley told Pierre in the aforementioned Panic Room interview. “I jump on a plane every now and then and he works. We are calm.” And then, after a pause, he said: “They became family.” His work for Delta seems to be part of the reason for not taking his last name as well.
“When we got married, he [joined] workforce, working for Delta,” Rickey said in the clip. “And he was just going to leave. We never got to that.”
