WHEN A WOMAN IS FED UP

There's a thin line between love and hate indeed and actress LisaRaye -Misick has the bruises to prove it. E3 reported earlier this week about the violent altercation between LisaRaye and soon to be ex-husband Premier Michael Misick at their mansion in Turks and Caicos Island on last week. LisaRaye had returned to the TCI last Wednesday, reportedly to negotiate a temporary spousal-support agreement until their divorce is finalized but, according to our sources, this process had gone very badly from her standpoint. Now photos of LisaRaye have surfaced showing the bruises that Mr. Misick left behind from that night.



Despite all the drama, the former first lady of Turks and Caicos was spotted at Mr. Chows in happier spirits! Talk about bouncing back ;-)

Shaq and Shaunie O’Neal are moving toward reconciliation. Things got ugly back in November when Shaq put her and the 6 kids out of the house. Shaunie didn't take that sitting down instead she spilled his dirty secrets to the press. But now, Shaunie tells the Palm Beach Post that the the two are mending their marriage:
“Neither one of us could probably answer why we were getting one in the first place,” Shaunie O’Neal said. “Things have been going so great, that someone actually had to remind us that ‘Hey, you do remember those papers are still there.’ Literally, it was days ago. So, we’ve agreed that before we leave Florida in a few days we’ll make sure that that’s gone away…The kids and I kind of learned about the divorce at the same time. So that was hard. That was probably the worst part of the whole thing, was being able to deal with how hurt the whole kids were.”

IS LISARAYE'S MARRIAGE OVER?

Caribbean Net News is reporting that divorce is looming for actress LisaRaye and her husband, Turks and Caicos Islands [TCI] Premiere Dr. Michael Misick, in the wake of rape allegations leveled against him.
In April, Misick was accused of sexually assaulting a U.S. citizen on a visit to his and LisaRaye’s home in the TCI. It was reported that the female visitor in question was a friend of LisaRaye’s.
Misick denied the allegations in a televised statement within the next two days. But other media sources, including Internet sites and Bahamian newspapers, reported that Misick admitted there was sexual contact but claims that it was consensual.
Rumors of cheating and infidelity have followed the couple’s two-year marriage, but have never been confirmed. LisaRaye told Caribbean Net News on Tuesday: "
I understand the interest my fellow Turks and Caicos Islanders have in this matter. But I hope they will understand that I have no comment to make at this time."
