Despite criticism, Jennifer Williams is standing firmly by her husband while alleging that her former bestie, Evelyn Lozada, has a history of targeting Black women. Her comments come amid Evelyn’s daughter entering the chat to call Jennifer a “lost woman in her 50s” after her “baby with a felon” shade.
Defiantly devoted Jennifer Williams recently chatted with BOSSIP about Basketball Wives, and her highly-discussed marriage to Christian Gold. As previously reported, Williams’ husband was jailed for violating his probation tied to a false imprisonment charge by leaving the state without permission. And although he was sentenced to 15 days in jail, the Gold Reserve Fund founder was temporarily released to marry Jennifer last year.
“Every time I’m in a relationship, it’s always a topic of conversation,” she told BOSSIP. “This is my real life, and it is nothing to hide. We have weathered storms, it has made us stronger, and I’m really, really happy. So hopefully the audience sees that, and if they don’t, that’s their problem.”
She mentioned that she views the show as a chance to clarify the facts, particularly with the ongoing headlines regarding Evelyn Lozada’s claims that he swindled her baby’s father, Carl Crawford’s cousin, out of $1,500. On the show, Christian defended himself, showing text message receipts about the situation to Jackie Christie.
And while she acknowledges that her husband is naturally a private person, she praises his willingness to support her publicly and face challenges head-on.
“He is a person that doesn’t hide from problems. He actually runs towards them,” she told BOSSIP. “I commend him for being the person that he is.”
Speaking of running toward problems, Jennifer recently followed suit by blasting her former best friend’s comments about her hubby.
On the most recent episode of Basketball Wives, Jennifer took issue with Evelyn continuing to mention Christian’s felon status and noted that Evelyn’s daughter, Shanice Hairston, shares a child with rapper The Game, who’s a felon as well.
“You like to bring up that Christian is a felon a lot,” said Jennifer. “And your daughter has a child by a felon as well.”
An annoyed Evelyn acknowledged that she didn’t “have a dog in the fight” before giving Jenn a warning.
“You won’t be able to walk the streets of LA… if you keep bringing my daughter up and who she’s with.”
Still, despite Evelyn’s threat, Jennifer seemed unbothered and recently took to Instagram Live to allege that Evelyn, who is afro-Latina, has a history of issues with Black women.
“It might be Evelyn really has something against black women, every season she is trying to go in on a Black woman,” said Jennifer. “You tryna bring a Black woman down, you tryna bring a Black man down.
As you can imagine, social media had lotsss to say about Jennifer’s comment with some agreeing with her, and others sending shade.
Evelyn definitely had issues with OG, Royce, and Tami.

Since the beginning, the cast of Basketball Wives has been mostly Black women .
A discussion could be had about how Evelyn engaged with Black women of a darker skin tone on the show.
Here’s the thing, colorism is REAL and we’ve seen Evelyn be a colorist, but what Jennifer is doing is nasty work. I don’t like it. She’s dog whistling just because Evelyn called out her scamming ass husband. Jen is more lame than I thought. #BBWLA pic.twitter.com/IaXRryvomC

Not only that, but Evelyn’s daughter, Shaniece Hairston, also weighed in on Jennifer’s comments about her having a baby by a felon.
Hit the flip for that.
