Rashida Nicole is pushing back after her estranged husband, LiAngelo Ball, publicly shared his version of their split.
The influencer, who welcomed their daughter Lilo Legacy Ball last week, responded on Instagram after Ball claimed on his podcast that he felt pressured into marrying her and wished he had never left ex Nikki Mudarris.
On the latest episode of his Ball in the Family podcast, Ball said he felt “disconnected” on the day they wed and remembered sitting in the car, unsure of what he was doing. He recalled telling Nicole he did not want to get married but went through with it anyway. His comments quickly drew attention and Nicole jumped in to give her side.

In an Instagram Story, Nicole called the rapper a “clown” and insisted his retelling of their relationship struggles did not add up. “None of it makes sense,” she wrote, adding that he “can never take accountability for nothing.” She also rebuked the idea that he was pushed into anything and said no one forced a grown man to choose marriage or fatherhood.
Nicole has previously shared that Ball was absent throughout her pregnancy. Earlier this week, she also claimed he still had not met their newborn daughter.
Fans want to know whether Nikki is going to take Gelo back.
