Famous for her younger days as a Disney star and her pop career dippin it low from a.m to p.m, Christina and The Dream, Mr. Yeah if you will, met and quickly fell in 'love', eloping in Las Vegas on September 4th 2009. The two were already expecting their 1st child by then. Shocker. In Violet, who is almost 6 months old and is beautiful "with a definite personality" according to Dream; though she is the 1st for Christina, it is The Dreams 4th child. Yes, 4th - hes has 3 little-dreams from his previous marriage with R&B crooner Nivea (from Dont Mess With My Man fame).
While Im not surprised, I am a tad disheartened by the breakup. Whenever discussing her future with Dream, Christina frequently gushed of their loving life and her role in music and as Mrs. Nash: "I enjoy being happy every day, and hopefully yo
u can hear my happiness in my music. Life is beautiful". Yet here they are separating, apparently since late 2009, even though it wasn't disclosed to the public then to protect their impending daugther (who was born in Feb 2010). Hmmm.I suppose the signs toward Dooms-ville were all too obvious; frequent trips away, rare coupled sightings, groupies all around ATL. It is all too apparent from a very recent interview The Dream gave to Essence, in which his caviler attitude toward Christina (still his 'wife' as of this interviews date) and his young newborn resonate the polar opposite of the man we swoon to onstage. One would think a supposed veteran father of 3 children would be quite 'the dream' partner to raise a child with, however, it looks like Christina may have simply been dreaming. When asked about his involvement with his new daugther, Mr. Nash bluntly responded,
I don't [get involved] because my "helping out" turns into expectations. I'll get Violet on a late night maybe one or two times, but after that, no. If Christina's tired, call the nanny, call Violet's granny. We got people.
What? You have people? So, I can only assume Dream assumes that because he is an active musician that excludes him from being an active father? He should probably expect to be sterile after a comment like that. The interview proceeds with questions regarding the then-alleged rumors surrounding he and wife Christina with reports they were (gasp) separating:
Whoever thought that blogs would dictate our conversations, [the writers] must be in their bedroom saying "Look what I can do." It's actually sad to have to entertain it. The rumors are not true and it really boils my blood. Christina and I are cool. People keep asking, "Why haven't we seen you guys out together?" I'm working, that's why you haven't seen us. She's at work too in Los Angeles. The women in the pictures are actually legitimate friends of mine. The photo with me in the car with another woman, she's a good friend who's at my house all the time. It's sad, because [the blogs] have humiliated her. She feels bad, I feel bad and you don't know what that [judgement] does to that person. Who takes responsibility for that? I understand freedom of speech but if I made my living spreading rumors about people, my family wouldnt claim me.
Ok so, let me make sure I have this straight: just 2 weeks ago, you and Christina were cool, yet there are pictures of you and your assistant hamming it up in the Caribbean, doin who-knows-what while the cameras flash to capture the infidelious event.Coincidental timing? Nah. Spiteful. Yep. Typical cheater? Yep. Ah, what a nightmare.
I have to ask though, depite how balse he seems about the situation and his public statement of his marriage simply being "unsuccessful", has it occured to Dream that maybe, just maybe, if he didnt flaunt around with other women he might be a successful somewhere other than the music charts? Somewhere like with his family; wife, kids...the whole deal. Talking about family not claiming you! And you lie! Ugh.
In the meantime, we all know how the story goes: she may or may not leave him, he most certainly will sleep his way past her, theres an innocent child he can now add to his payroll rooster to support, another ex-wife to maintain and another statistic to add, multiply and divide by.
When will people learn...
