He likes to joke and tells Vanessa: ‘Look outside now’. And people are looking in.”
Things tend to get pretty intense though, there have been times when folks will come around with T-shirts and programmes and say: ‘Can you take this into training and get it signed and I’ll come back on Thursday for it.’ her hubby revealed.
By now, after years of marriage and two sons, Vanessa Williams is a seasoned wag that knows how to handle it, the mom of two isn’t very into social media and enjoys keeping her privacy.
