Mary J. Blige : “My Husband Saved My Life “
-Advertisements-
Mary J. Blige considers that her husband Kendu Isaacs, saved her Life
“We met when I hated men,” Blige, 36, tells Parade about Kendu Isaacs, 38, a talent manager and producer she met through Queen Latifah in a recording studio six years ago.
“He said, ‘Mary, I’ve got something to tell you that’s going to hurt, but it will help you heal.’ Guys didn’t ever talk to me like that. ‘You’re scarred inside,’ he said. ‘It’s like you have a cut, and it’s infected. You have to let me put proper medicine on it so it can heal.’ ”
She had turned to drugs and alcohol to cope with the pain from her abusive upbringing. “The relationship I was in was so terrible, I had a gun to my face,” she says. “At that point, I said to myself, ‘There’s something wrong with me. Guys don’t want to stick around because they’re ashamed of me.’ Ouch! That gives me the chills right now!”
At first, she treated Isaacs “so badly for a while, because I’d never experienced real love before. I was suspicious. It seemed too good to be true.”
There’s little doubt in her mind that Isaacs is responsible for her new happiness. “After I met him, everything changed in my life,” Blige says.
“He was the first person to ever challenge what I did: ‘Why are you drinking? Why do you hate yourself? You don’t need to be around people who tear you down. You’re beautiful, Mary.’ He was the first man to ever tell me that.”
