Who is her fiancee?
You are a beautiful spirit inside and out. Congrats on your engagement.
What products do you use on your hair, its sooo pretty.
On MSNBC about two months ago either on Ari Melber or Chris Hayes show, they featured a young black boy that drew a portrait of Labron James. It was said that he had a bad speech impediment. I am 82 yrs. old. I stutter for most of my life and it is DEVASTATING. I taught myself how to stop and I can teach him VERY easily if I could reach him. LeBron James can reach him. People such as yourself and MSNBC can. Please help me reach that young brother so I can make his life better.
If you would be so kind, please text me to check my box if you will help because I have PROSTATE CANCER that caused a TUMOR on my Spinal Cord that left me with limited use of my hands.
Hey Kimberly, now who is the lucky guy who won your heart?
I knew I loved you. I’m a Detroit girl, too! I see you almost daily. Saw the name change. Started searching. Glad to see you on representing us AND the human race. Congratulations on your marriage!
