Last October, tragedy struck Jennifer Hudson when her mother, brother, and 7-year-old nephew were all brutally murdered by her brother-in-law. Now, she’s beginning to to open up about the horrifically unimaginable real-life nightmare.
When asked about her mom and their relationship, Jennifer confesses in the new issue of Essence magazine that she was a “mama’s baby” and found comfort in their bond: ├óΓé¼┼ôI├óΓé¼Γäód go and sleep in her bed until I was 15 years old.”
Before the horrific crime, Jennifer’s fiancee, David Otunga, received her mother’s blessing for marrying her mother. He reveals that they don’t talk about the incident, but that when so much is so uncertain, she can always count on her man.
Otunga says, “She doesn├óΓé¼Γäót have to worry about losing me. I├óΓé¼Γäóm always going to be right here.├óΓé¼┬¥
Along with her supportive fiancee, she attributes her strength to her faith.
“The thing that keeps me going is knowing that God is in control,” says Hudson. “It’s like, if he placed me here then I must be prepared.”
We like Jennifer and we hope she keeps on staying as strong as she has been!
