Keke Palmer is standing tall through the controversy with her now-ex Darius Jackson, and has even found a way to laugh through the pain.
Taking to Instagram on Sunday (December 10), the multi-hyphenate shared a video holding her and Darius’ son in the kitchen, and got quite candid – and hilarious – in its caption.

“When reality tv makes everyone believe all celebrities are just one big marketing strategy and scheme but my life is truly unraveling at the seams and I just wear trauma like a Dolce & Gabbana coat because Sharon didn’t raise no [bitch],” she wrote.

Keke Palmer’s mom Sharon was in the news amid her daughter’s drama last month as well after an alleged phone call between her and Darius Jackson surfaced online where she claimed that Usher is gay.
During the heated conversation, Sharon can be heard yelling at Jackson for “harassing” her daughter, calling him a “dick sucker” and saying he has “mental problems.”

She also references the incident that sparked issues between the couple (at least in the public eye): the viral clip of the Nope star dancing with Usher during the singer’s Las Vegas residency earlier this year.
“Usher is gay!” she exclaimed. “You and your stupid-ass family, y’all don’t even understand business. Usher’s gay, guys.”

After the audio circulated online and led to Usher trending on social media, Sharon Palmer took to Instagram to clarify that she was lying about the R&B icon’s sexuality for her daughter’s “safety.”
“The lie I told about Usher was to get Darius to stop abusing my daughter on account of his jealousy,” she wrote in a comment on The Neighborhood Talk‘s page. “So I said he didn’t like women for her SAFETY.
“Everything else I meant with my chest and didn’t expect anyone to hear it because recording me is illegal. I guess he is okay with jail but I knew that when he put his hands on my daughter. He is still abusing her in all of this, trying to paint himself as a victim. Textbook behavior.”
Keke Palmer came forward last month with her allegations against Darius, with whom she shares a son named Leodis.

She claims Jackson assaulted her several times over the course of their two-year relationship, which ended in October, and he would sometimes do it in front of their son.
The actress has been granted a temporary restraining order against Jackson, as well as sole custody of their child. A hearing to determine whether the restraining order will become permanent is scheduled for this month.
