Raven-Symoné has revealed her famous ex got another woman pregnant, then asked her to be the godmother. 

The 39-year-old actress opened up about the unfortunate incident when talking to Jeff Lewis on his radio show this week.

Raven – who is best known for her shows The Cosby Show, The That’s So Raven and The View – was on the radio show with her wife of five years, Miranda Maday.

The Georgia native said she was with the man for many years.

Raven-Symoné has been in relationships with AzMarie Livingston (2012 – 2015), Jussie Smollett (2007 – 2011), Jonathan ‘Lil J’ McDaniel (2003 – 2007) and Marquis C. (2000 – 2003).

When Lewis asked if her ex was famous, she said that ‘he’s pretty well known in the community he works in.’

She refused to name the man or give any more clues.

Raven – whose full name is Raven-Symoné Christina Pearman-Maday – then went into more detail but still did not name the man.

‘We were together for a really long time, and he got another girl pregnant, and the best part of it was he asked me to be the godmother of the kid,’ Symoné said, which stunned Lewis.

But the two are still friends to this day.

‘He’s been through a lot, so there’s nothing but love and respect for all that he’s gone through in his family, but he still talks about it all the time,’ the star said. ‘Dumb***.’

In the past, Raven has said that she stopped being bi because all the men she had been with cheated on her.

She started dating Pearman-Maday in 2015 after they met at a gay bar, then wed in 2020.

They have a podcast called Tea Time with Raven and Miranda where they discuss their relationship.

Last year she shared that she had a breast reduction when she was a teenager.

The actress revealed that she went under the knife when she was just 15 years old because she had been told that is what she needed to do to find success.

Speaking on her Tea Time podcast, she told her wife: ‘I had my first breast reduction at 15. It was traumatic. I was a triple D all the way down to a B. Someone said I needed to do it in order to get a show.’

But the Cheetah Girls star has now learned to ’embrace’ her body in a way she couldn’t when she was younger.

She said: ‘There’s this beautiful embracing of the body now that I didn’t get as a young girl.’

It was recently alleged that when Raven was in the middle of shooting her supernatural sitcom – which originally ran from 2003 until 2007 – Disney bosses decided to make her appear ‘thinner’ with CGI.

When her weight fluctuated in her later teenage years, co-producer and writer Dava Savel has claimed show bosses ‘handled it in really bad ways’.

In the book ‘Disney High: The Untold Story of the Rise and Fall of Disney Channel’s Tween Empire’, Sevel said: ‘Disney Channel was going crazy about it.

‘And they handled it in really bad ways. But it was never to her face.’

Sources in the book allege that one incident occurred in season two episode ‘That’s So Not Raven’, which saw another model picked for a runway show over Raven because of her slimmer frame.

The episode saw the character Raven try a range of diets before realizing she is perfect jut as she is, and then sending a message of body positivity when she walked the runway at the end.

However, the book’s author Ashley Spencer writes that ‘multiple people involved in the episode’ claimed a Disney Channel executive told the visual effects team to make Raven thinner in the closing scenes.
