Russell Simmons is speaking out after his ex-wife Kimora Simmons and both daughters spoke out about his alleged abuse.
In a post on Instagram he apologized for his behavior saying he was frustrated and that he was being tested.
“God is testing you a little bit, it’s ok, be strong. . . they are called growing pains . . . as you know, we grow through adversity and struggle . . . you read my books and heard me preach your whole childhood . . . reach back and to remember “smile and breathe,” he captioned a photo of his daughters from when they were younger.
He concluded the post with, “DEEPLY sorry for being frustrated and yelling . . . but know this . . . there are no conditions . . . for sure i love you guys more than i love myself”

Kimora continues to trend after yesterday’s debacle as people discuss Russell Simmon’s past, as well as Kimora’s defense of him in previous years.
I understand why people are upset with Kimora now speaking out against Russell Simmons since she defended him when is SA his allegations became public. However, it’s important to remember that she was groomed, and part of that is the victim being trained to defend the abuser. pic.twitter.com/hKALlkIIrX

Joanne Perkins had no issue with her daughter, Kimora, dating an ADULT BLACK MOGUL as she was legal at 17, and he was 35. So yeah tell the entire story while perpetuating Black misandry. Her “parents” were responsible for their teenager.
Both of them. https://t.co/h50hzjWcpd pic.twitter.com/x55jBNQHZW— Et Videbo Justitiam (Andy)?? (@DiazAndytwelve1) June 20, 2023

Holding space for Kimora as a victim and also a perpetrator of violence herself is difficult for people. Russell Simmons obviously groomed, and abused her. She also enabled his abuse towards other women. Giving her grace, while also holding her accountable isn’t easy.
