Nia Long ‘Will Always Speak My Truth’ Amid Custody Battle With Ime Udoka

Nia Long continues to pique fans’ curiosity with cryptic posts amid her custody battle with ex-fiancé Ime Udoka!

The sensational actor and his former lover decided to call it quits in 2022 after the basketball coach’s cheating scandal with a Boston Celtics employee came to light. Following the dissolution of their romance, the couple have been in a heated battle over the rights to their only child, a son named Kez.

The “Boyz n the Hood” star got it X followers thought early Tuesday morning with a cryptic tweet. Although he gave zero clues as to who inspired his message, the entertainer’s words could refer to his ongoing custody battle with Udoka, given the timing.

As if hinting at a non-disclosure agreement in the case, the TV personality revealed he has no interest in hiding things. According to Long, he would always raise his voice to say things that might make others uncomfortable. The 52-year-old’s tweet read:

“If someone asks you to sign an NDA to chat, what are they protecting? Who are they protecting? I will always tell the truth and tell my story. The thing that makes you say Hmmmm.”

The “Soul Food” actor’s words sparked mixed reactions from his followers, with some supporting the use of an NDA while others labeled it a dishonest approach. One individual quoted Proverbs 11:13 NLT, writing, “They protect themselves… and you. ‘Gossip spreads secrets, but those who can be trusted keep the confidence.’”

Another fan said, “Oh, that means the person isn’t being honest about something & it shows so many ‘Red Flags’ that I would run & never look back.”

As mentioned, Nia Long’s message came in the middle of her custody battle with Udoka. The former Boston Celtics coach hit back at his ex-fiancé with a joint custody appeal for Kez after the “Friday” star filed for full rights to the child.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the Nigerian-American asked to share physical and legal custody of her son. If allowed, Udoka would have the same authority as Long over the boy’s medical treatment, schooling and religion.

If someone asks you to sign an NDA to have a conversation, what are they protecting? Who are they protecting? I will always tell the truth and tell my story. Things that make you say Hmmmm. ?

The former basketball player will also have a 50% time share with Kez. Despite fighting for joint custody of Kez, Udoka doesn’t mind letting the boy live with Long. In court documents, the NBA star checked the box for “visitation,” meaning he is willing to spend time with his son during the holidays or summer break while the child lives with his mother.

The move may be due to the former athlete’s new position as head coach of the Houston Rockets. Udoko will have to spend most of his time in Texas and may be traveling with the basketball team.

The basketball coach’s joint custody plea was made in response to Long’s full custody suit for the 11-year-old in August. In her filing, Long compromised by not completely cutting her ex out of their son’s life and asked the court to grant him visitation rights.

Nia Long Drops Vague Message Days After Joint Custody Filing With Ime Udoka

Following Udoka’s response to his filing, the actor of “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” seems to be sending a message to his ex-fiancé. Days after Udoka asked for joint custody of their son, the entertainer shared a cryptic quote.

“Sometimes the Universe tests you the most when you’re approaching a new chapter,” the American Black Film Festival Award winner wrote in her Instagram post. Long is no doubt ready to work even harder to secure his new chapter with celebrity lawyer Samantha Spector in his corner.

The “blackAF” star enlisted the services of the famous lawyer to fight for full custody of his son. The New Yorker’s desire to control Kez’s well-being may be due to the child’s emotional turmoil over his father’s infidelity.

Long previously revealed that his son was devastated by the Udoka fraud scandal. “He still had moments where it wasn’t easy for him,” the mother of two recalled, noting she pulled the boy out of school when the affair went viral.

“I think the most heartbreaking thing about all of this is seeing my son’s face when the Boston Celtics organization decided to go public with a very personal situation,” lamented the actress in an interview. NBA teams blew the whistle on Udoka’s cheating in a statement, announcing they had fired the 46-year-old.
