Keke Palmer is ready to talk about her breakup with Darius Jackson—specifically, what happened after the fitness instructor publicly shamed her on Twitter for wearing a sheer dress to an Usher concert in July 2023. “You a mom,” Jackson, the father of Palmer’s son, commented on her look, kicking off a firestorm that Palmer says “shocked” her. Speaking to People ahead of the publication of her book, The Master of Me, the actor says she was “speechless” when she found out about the controversy the next day. “I was at a photo shoot and everybody was looking all weird. I was like, ‘Are y’all good?’ And then I randomly was on my phone and I saw,“ she recalled. “It was so crazy. I didn’t want to engage with something that wasn’t reality and fan the fire.” Ultimately the couple split, and several months later, Palmer received a domestic violence restraining order against Jackson and temporary sole custody of their son. “It got so out of control,” she told People of their “unhealthy” relationship. “The only way I knew how to bring order was through the court.”
