She continued by saying that despite the fact that she constantly gave and sacrificed for others, no one kept an eye on her. Essie and the public sympathised with Marie’s situation, but the public had a hard time understanding why she would force her ex-husband to care for his own son by buying him a Rolex.
Cedric was dead weight honestly. He doesn't deserve a Rolex especially now that they're DIVORCED. He would be added STRESS onto Marie's already stressful situation. #BelleCollective
