Raven Symoné Shares A Message As Her Wife Clarifies Previous Comments
On Thursday, May 2, Symoné took to TikTok to share a video with fans. In the clip, she began by sharing firm words.
“I’m here with Miranda — my wife — to tell you to stop it in the comments. And stop with the death threats in her DMs. It is disrespectful to her and, in turn, disrespectful to me,” she said. “Stop it!”
At that point, Miranda Maday chimed in to “clear the air” on previous comments she publicly shared.
“I have never once said that I did not know who Raven was,” she explained. “I only ever said that I did not grow up watching ‘That’s So Raven.’ I did not watch her as a child. But since getting married and meeting her in 2015, I have seen the majority of her work…”
Maday explained that she fully supports her wife’s career and would like the public to understand that “there is more behind people that are celebrities.” Symoné’s wife concluded by adding that she has been receiving “so much hate” for “internet misinformation.”
According to Blavity, Maday and Symoné’s message appeared to address an appearance they made on the ‘Bottoms Up With Fannita’ podcast in April. The episode went viral after Fannita and Symoné sang a few songs from the ‘Cheetah Girls’ movie, and Maday appeared to be out of the loop.

The Former Disney Channel Star Recently Sparked Headlines
As The Shade Room previously reported, Symoné recently made headlines in early April. At the time, she reflected on her viral 2014 interview on ‘Oprah: Where Are They Now?’
During the appearance, Symoné explained that she didn’t identify as African American.
“I want to talk about something that has haunted me since 2014,” she said while appearing on her podcast ‘Tea Time with Raven and Miranda.’ “When that aired, I felt like the entire internet exploded and threw my name in the garbage… the exact words that I said is that ‘I’m an American, not an African American.’ A lot of people on the internet thought I said that I wasn’t Black. And I never said that. There’s a difference between being Black and African American.”
