**At 53, Malcolm-Jamal Warner FINALLY Exposed By His Ex-Wife Regina King**

Sometimes, even the most promising relationships don’t end with a “happily ever after.” This was the case for Regina King and Malcolm-Jamal Warner, two beloved stars whose private breakup was more painful than the public ever realized.

Regina King and Malcolm-Jamal Warner, both former child stars, had known each other since the 1980s when King starred on “227” and Warner played Theo Huxtable on “The Cosby Show.”

Their friendship eventually blossomed into romance in 2011, and for two years, they seemed inseparable. During their relationship, Warner even lived with King and her son from her previous marriage.

King once described their timing as perfect, saying in a 2012 interview that the universe had a plan and they wouldn’t have been ready for each other any earlier. However, the relationship ended abruptly in March 2013. According to sources, Warner unexpectedly broke up with King and requested that she and her son move out of their shared home, leaving King shocked and hurt.

Insiders claimed she was confused and didn’t understand what happened, while Warner later admitted that all relationships have challenges and that he preferred to keep theirs private.

The breakup became even more infamous due to its timing. In a later interview, King revealed that an ex-boyfriend had broken up with her on Valentine’s Day, then sent her flowers with a note reading, “I still love you.”

While she didn’t mention Warner by name, she hinted that people could figure out who she was referencing. King described the gesture as a painful pity bouquet, which she promptly threw away.

Despite the heartbreak, King has thrived both personally and professionally. She won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2019 and has continued to dominate in Hollywood. Warner, meanwhile, publicly congratulated King on her Emmy win in 2015, affirming that integrity, dignity, and success can coexist.

In later interviews, Warner claimed things were amicable between him, King, and her son, though King’s previous comments and insider reports suggest she may have felt differently.

King has faced even greater tragedy in recent years. In early 2022, her only son, Ian Alexander Jr., died by suicide. The loss was devastating for King, who described Ian as her best friend and a bright light. She took time away from the spotlight to grieve, returning to work months later but keeping a low profile.

Today, Regina King is single and content, focusing on herself and her career. She’s spoken openly about enjoying her independence and not feeling pressure to be in a relationship.

Her focus on her work and her son paid off, with Ian once describing her as a “super mom” who never let a bad day affect their time together.

King’s journey from child star to Oscar-winning actress, director, and producer is a testament to her resilience. Despite heartbreak and unimaginable loss, she continues to inspire with her talent and strength. Meanwhile, Warner remains active in film and television, both stars carving their own paths after their split.
