Nia Long has had nothing but love and support from her fans following the scandal that left her fiance Ime Udoka without a job. Udoka had been having a consensual relationship with a female staffer, and the ordeal has made him public enemy number one while everyone champions Long. She recently did a post and delete of a “new home,” leading fans to believe that she’s possibly moved on from Ime and starting fresh. Despite receiving a lot of love, Long deleted it shortly afterward.

Nia Long celebrated Thanksgiving with a black-and-white picture of a beautiful kitchen space. She captioned it, “Thankful for the gift of new places and space. Happy Thanksgiving.” The post was taken down not too long after, despite getting over 100k likes and comments from Yung Miami, Niecy Nash, and more. Many took the post to mean that Long had moved into her own place and was leaving Ime.
The couple has never confirmed if they would be splitting, and many have speculated about their “arrangement” since the news broke. Some found it odd that a couple would be engaged for so long, almost 15 years. “Insiders,” said that Long and Udoka had an arrangement and that his Celtics scandal was not the first time he’d cheated. Back in September, one person tweeted, “Udoka and Nia Long are in an open relationship, and he is a ‘serial offender’ with the ladies wherever he coached.” Could it be the pair had not split, and she deleted the post because she realized it sent the wrong message?
Meanwhile, it has been reported that Ime would be stepping into a new role as head coach of the Brooklyn Nets. This would mean the family would be relocating to New York, that is if they are still together. Long did move to Boston earlier this year for Ime and their kids but was spotted back in Los Angeles shortly afterward sans her ring.

So what is the truth behind her post and delete? Long has yet to address it and instead has been busy promoting The Best Man: Final Chapters series and her eldest son’s birthday.
