“I thought it was hilarious at first, and then they hurt my feelings,” Simone said of the public criticism on the Call Her Daddy podcast in April. “Then one night, I broke down and I’m like, ‘Why are you guys talking about my husband like this? Like, you don’t know him. You don’t know who he is.'”
And the 27-year-old also believed the online scrutiny went too far.
“That really hurt that they were talking about my husband like that,” she continued. “Because for me, it’s like, ‘Talk about me all you want, but don’t come for my family—never.’ Because I’ve been in the limelight long enough where I can brush things off, have my little powwow about it.”
“You’re not going to know I cried about it, but I be crying about some stuff,” Simone admitted. “But I only cry about it because I can’t clap back. Just know that.”
But Jonathan has made it clear he’ll continue to be her biggest cheerleader.
“You just never cease to amaze me baby, I love being able to watch you go out there and do your thing,” he wrote on Instagram May 19. “I’m here with you every step of the way, wouldn’t miss it for the world.
