No one knows if Keke Palmer and her fiance Darius Jackson have called it quits after he shamed her for her outfit choice when she went to an Usher concert a few months back.
The relationship drama that went down between the two on X (formerly known as Twitter). Jackson quoted a video of the "Nope" singer dancing with Usher, wearing a skin-tight, body-hugging sheer black dress. "It's the outfit tho... you a mom," he wrote.
His statement was met with criticisms from left and right. Many accused him of mom-shaming Palmer, while others criticized him for outfit-shaming the actress slash singer.
It seemed like the couple had broken up after they had unfollowed each other on social media, especially after Palmer clapped back by posting more pictures of her in the dress and lamented in the caption how she wished she should have taken more pictures.
In fact, according to reports, Palmer went on to share a picture of herself wearing another outfit. This time it was a shirt that simply read, "I'm a Mother." She then began selling the shirt as merchandise.

Keke Palmer Sets the Record Straight with Relationship Drama
Following the fallout between herself and her fiance, Palmer took to Cut to finally set the record straight and explain her side of the story, of why she decided to wear the "controversial" and "scandalous" dress.
"I'll be honest, I think before I even had the baby, I was really actually quite self-conscious," the actress explained. "After having my baby, I've gotten so much more powerful. We're going to lean into this new body, and I think that is the whole aura of what's happening with me in this big boss era as I come into my 30s, and I have my baby boy, and I'm just continuing to spread my wings as a young woman."
Palmer went on to send a message directed at mothers as well: "Do you, new moms. Do you. Girl, if there's one person on this earth that loves you for sure, it's that baby. Be happy, because there's no love like it. Somebody loving you like that, hell, who cares?"
