It seemed that Jill Scott had finally found her man when she hooked up with her drummer Lil’ John Roberts, and came up pregnant. Well not any more. According to a recent Essence magazine interview with the singer/actress, the couple has split.
“He was there and for a couple of days afterwards while I stayed in hospital, but John and I are no longer together,” Scott said. “When you have a baby you’re dealing with a lot of emotions and I don’t know how much of it had to do with us breaking up, but it happens.”
However, she maintains that her son Jett, will be raised in a loving home, even if she is a single parent. She also says that Roberts will be an active part of his life.
“We definitely love our son and we are co-parenting and working on being friends. It is what it is. I have a lot of support, so I want for nothing as far as that’s concerned. I know some might criticize me or the fact that my son is being raised in a single-parent home, but I wasn’t raised in a two-parent home and I had a good relationship with my dad. … I’m sure his father will do his part as well.” –jh
