We guess Marques Houston subscribes to the previous philosophy that the very best protection is an effective offense. As a result of what he simply stated in protection of his controversial relationship? It’s fairly damned offensive!
For individuals who don’t know, the Sister, Sister star drew a ton of controversy a pair years again when he revealed he was getting married to a 19-year-old. The previous youngster star was 38 on the time, actually twice Miya Dickey‘s age — however even ickier to many was the actual fact they’d already been collectively for a 12 months. They went public with their relationship simply THREE WEEKS after she turned 18. He was 37. Yowza.

So at the perfect, they met just like the precise second Miya turned 18 and fell in love instantly, going IG official in simply days. At finest that’s what occurred. There was fairly a little bit of speak on the time that it was worse than all that. In response to an investigation by MTO Information, across the time of the engagement announcement, somebody named “Miyana Dickey” had been lacking since she was 15 — and a “Miyana Dickey” had been listed on not less than one in every of Marques’ tasks on IMDB earlier than 2018. That itemizing has since been erased. Marques claimed on the time that was an error, presumably an intentional one, writing on social media:
“I met Miya in 2018 by way of a mutual buddy. By no means earlier than then, did I even know she existed. The truth that she was listed on one in every of our movies was a misprint or somebody being messy. Anybody can put up on IMDB … Miya and I didn’t begin courting till she was an grownup.”
Messy stuff. However transferring on to the current…
There doesn’t appear to be any concrete proof Miya is “Miyana,” nor that Marques and Miya have been collectively earlier than she turned 18 — however they’ve been collectively ever since. They even welcomed a baby collectively in 2021. Now the R&B singer is 41, and his spouse is 22 — so he isn’t even twice her age anymore! However he nonetheless finds the necessity to defend their union apparently.
Talking to Web page Six on Tuesday, he did so by placing the blame on ladies his personal age. He stated they have a tendency to have an excessive amount of “baggage.” He additionally stated, unbelievably:
“A purple flag to me [was] at all times with a lady that had a child. Nothing towards single ladies, however single moms with kids are a purple flag for me.”
Wow. Wow wow wow.
The way you assume these ladies change into single moms, Marques? A terrific many get used and excused by guys who would fairly hook up with youthful ladies!
Marques tried so as to add one thing optimistic — however finally simply confirmed off the place the toxicity got here from. He stated:
“I tip my hat and respect ladies which can be elevating kids on their very own. However after I grew up, I by no means actually needed to have youngsters. I’d speak to my dad loads, and he would at all times inform me to have your personal youngsters since you by no means know what the infant daddys are about. So in case you’re gonna have youngsters, be sure that it’s with a lady that by no means had youngsters. In order that was at all times my purple flag… and a lady with an perspective. I don’t like ladies with funky attitudes.”
One thing tells us Marques comes throughout a number of “funky attitudes” amongst individuals he offends. Simply sayin.’

On his marriage, the actor defined why he nonetheless believes he made the appropriate selection — and never simply due to real love, he truly thinks he was being protected right here:
“I’m 41, she is 22. I may’ve married a 44-year-old lady, and it may’ve been disastrous. Ladies which can be my age… they sort of have a special outlook on life. Like a number of ladies my age are very impartial. They’re very like, ‘I don’t want a person to do that for me ’trigger I can do it for myself.’ I come from a technology that I really like to offer for my spouse.”
LOLz, sure, he actually comes from a special technology from his spouse. The identical one as her dad, almost certainly… He lastly obtained romantic — or his model anyway, saying:
“There’s a number of ladies my age I’ve dated, they might have baggage. They could have youngsters, they might not. There’s so many alternative ladies I’ve been with all through my life, and it simply so occurs to be that this one caught my coronary heart. The whole lot that I prayed for — and every part that I needed in a lady — she got here with. Though she was younger, I’m younger in spirit.”
Proper, every part he was praying for — which, if we’re studying accurately right here, is no baggage, no youngsters, no perspective, no impartial spirit.
Frankly, if we have been Marques’ spouse, we’d take all of this as an enormous ol’ purple flag. In spite of everything, yesterday’s teenagers and right now’s 23-year-olds are tomorrow’s 40-year-old single mothers. You already know, when their males transfer on to the youthful mannequin…
What do YOU consider all this, Perezcious readers??
