She said Diggs has been ready for kids since "the day I met him."
"He wouldn't talk about marriage, but he'd talk about me having his children," she told Us. "He's always wanted kids. He grew up with four younger brothers and sisters, so he's very comfortable around children."

meBubblin..you do sound angry but I think you're confused too. Since when do black women not have as many choices as black men? I don't limit myself to only dating black men because I haven't had to Nor did I grow up wanting one or thinking they were the only ones intended for me. You can't meet a good person when you're so focused on their color. A good manreport abuseposted September 3, 2009 12:48 PM PDT

JohnaOkay this one goes to Caroline M, Melissa Rose, and White_lilac. Who the hell are you to judge someone and talk about someone's race? BLACK is BEAUTIFUL! Someone needs to slap the sh**** out of you. People can reproduce with what ever race they want to. My mother is pure white and my father is pure AFRICAN. Race doesn't matter when it comes to love. You all are ignorant a** people.report abuseposted August 26, 2009 12:52 PM PDT

PeppermintjamieOk, there are rasist comments flying all over the place. From BOTH sides. A beautiful BLACK man & a beautiful WHITE woman have concieved a child. SO WHAT? It's a CHILD. A red-blooded American with two Freakishly talented parents. Maybe the baby will have a cafe au lait complexion, maybe not. Obviously you're set in your opinions, so why bother screaming at each other aboutreport abuseposted June 11, 2009 8:16 PM PDT
