Eve, who is married to British entrepreneur Maximillion Cooper, detailed the discussions she’s been having with her husband following the police killing of George Floyd. During an episode of CBS’ The Talk, the veteran rapper opened up about the dynamics of her interracial marriage when examining racial injustice.
“These conversations have to be had,” she said. “I am in an interracial relationship. I am having some of the most difficult and uncomfortable conversations I think I’ve ever had and vice versa with my husband. But at the same time, it’s a beautiful thing.”
She continued, “I don’t know his life through his eyes. He doesn’t know my life through my eyes. All he can do is try to understand and try to ask the questions and he wants to understand. And that’s what the nation — that’s what the world — has to do.
Eve stressed the importance of more people having conversations like she’s having with her husband. In her mind, these talks can lead to much-needed answers.
“It’s gonna be uncomfortable,” she stated. “Yeah, it’s gonna be uncomfortable. But we have to be OK with being uncomfortable so that we can get to a solution. We need a solution. We have to get somewhere. It’s crazy it’s been so overwhelming.”

Ruff Ryders’ First Lady also spoke about the moments of hope she’s experienced amid the protests. For her, seeing some unity among a diverse group of people has helped her during this stressful time.
“I think the things that keep me calm — because I’ve been glued to the TV and to the news like everyone is — is there are some people that are having peaceful protests,” Eve explained. “Beautiful, peaceful protests with their firsts in the air and their hands in the air and all different colors and genders all together on one knee, wanting to get past this. That’s what actually keeps me from getting too emotional because I can’t even help but be emotional.”
Check out Eve’s full thoughts from The Talk in the above clip.

The real conversation little Max cooper should be having is why a multimillionaire like him chooses to wife an ex stripper, despite her race. Guy’s either a moron or has no game or little self worth.
Maybe he loves her. And maybe being an ex stripper doesnt make her a bad person or less deserving than others. Sit your conservative self down.
This bullshit has consumed so many pea brains out there it’s laughable. How does the death of one man with a huge criminal record take hold of your interracial marriage? What does that guy have to do with the love between a man and a woman? Lol this B is so stupid and easily manipulated like all the idiots posting black squares thinking they’re helping.
See this is the sort of bullshit retort that let’s this toxic racist shit perpetuate in that shithole of a country you call the United States.. Instead of focusing on the blatantly obvious segregation and racist judicial system and police brutality towards people of color (mainly black people), you of COURSE want to discredit the movement and Floyds legacy by pointing out something completely irrelevant like his criminal record. As if that record in any way makes it more legitimate for police to suffocate him to death with a knee. As if it takes away the millions of black americans killed in slavery and forced into the lower social classes for centuries.. Until you white people of that shithole of a country become a MINORITY, this will continue to perpetuate. Greetings from Sweden motherfucker.
Since you don’t live here you should probably look up the statistics. Then again you probably do live here, and you’re playing dumb. Looks like 10 people have already bought into it. Which is good. We all have opinions that we want to pass off as facts. It’s easy to believe something when either the media and tech giants hide, or you don’t actually want to do the research to find out for yourself that what you’re told is a lie. Greetings from the United States by the way.
The statisitics would prove his point. The world is watching and sees the American Empire for what it is…
Black folls need 2 stop talking 2 non racist white folks like were kids. Hes your husband. Many white folks arent racist. Go to the country and talk to the KKK not ppl alrdy on ur side.
I know plenty of white people who arent racist but still says racist shit without thinking about it and then get upset when someone gets offended. Or, when they witness it they ignore it. In short, theres always room for improvement. And that goes in all directions. Not just this example.
Shut up, you dork
Dorks rule the world dumbfuck. And telling someone to “shut up” is whats choking public conversation which is hindering societies to move forward. Stop being a crab and get out the bucket.
goes for everyone though. Blacks, whites, browns and Asians doing that
The media needs racism, they need a divide. Stop trying to divide the people

Old Dirty Eve… How in the world a lady of your caliber marry this type of dude? Really!!! Even let him put it in you! Disgusting!!!! You know how to choose them alright. I have no respect for you Eve! You are disgusting!!!!
Eve gotta get her check. Stripping, rapping or sleeping with that… get your money…. players club 2020
The same people claiming to be against racism, are often extremely racist themselves. I’m white and have a black girlfriend too, and all of her family that support the protests… Well, at least half of them think interracial dating is disgusting, and a sin. It’s insanely hypocritical and sad. I’m convinced racism will never cease to exist, when those fighting it are just as guilty as anyone else. Most of the white girls protesting are racist agaisnt straight white men. It seems hatred is high these days…
That’s cool, but we have to tighten our race and culture before we commit to anyone or thing. You two may have most beautiful awesome relationship ever…. but our race needs each other. We a mess. Not a racist… just pro-black… once our race is respected, reveered and looked upon as something special. Not wanting to Mix doesn’t make you prejudiced or racist. Our race seems to love everything more than us… we are more welcoming than almost ever race … and we have no power to be racist… dating outside your culture/ race is a great thing to some, but for others I understand why it’s not a good thing. To some it’s makes us look needy and unstructured… no shade… it’s love

Not a racist… just pro-black… once our race is respected, reveered and looked upon as something special- no one should be upset if we want to solidify us.
