Whats the Big Deal! Rev. Al Sharpton Responds to Folk Saying His 35-Year-Old Girlfriend is Too Young
When it comes to his personal life, Rev. Al Sharpton would like us (*raises hand*) to mind our personal business. Fortunately (for you) and unfortunately (for him) at times we can be a bit nosy. So what’s up w his personal life these days? Well, rumor has it, he’s dating his attractive personal stylist, Aisha McShaw. So what’s the big friggin’ deal? Well, baby boo is 35-years old. And this week folk were all up in a tizzy about the age difference and the fact that he’s been separated for nine years.
He’s heard our concerns and in an interview with Rumor Fix via his publicist he stated:
I’m not announcing an engagement or a marriage. Don’t I have a right to date when my marriage has been over for a decade?
The new couple appeared together at his birthday celebration last October; and attended both President Obama’s holiday party in December and the black-tie White House Correspondents Dinner in April. When spotted out with him at the New York County Democratic Committee Award Ceremony this past Monday, Aisha quickly stated,
I’m his girlfriend.
After a 24 year marriage, Sharpton and his wife Kathy Lee Jordan announced their separation in 2004, but according to a source close to the Reverend, they’ve never officially filed for divorce. Recently, Sharpton was spotted with Beyonce and Jay-Z at the Trayvon Martin rally in New York City. The MSNBC host will release his memoir, “The Rejected Stone” in October of this year.

She actually looks older than 35 :)
You think???
Yea Jazz, I was thinking early 40’s. Maybe it is Al making her look old to me…lol…
Rev. Al, It appears that you have lost too much weight, just gain A LITTLE MORE weight, vegetables have taken too much weight away from your body. Drink plenty of water!
Yeah I agree… He doesn’t look healthy at all.
It’s equal parts funny and sad that folks are more concerned with the fact that REVEREND Al has a young jawn moreso than the fact that he’s committing adultery. Separation ain’t divorce. Misplaced values or nah?
Why hasn’t he divorced his wife?
The Reverend has lot weight. It’s well documented that losing weight increases, among other things, one’s libido. What better than a partner who can keep up?
Ummm…..maybe you didn’t catch the “key” word “REVEREND”….I don’t care if he’s got the libido of a wild bull, he can only use it on his wife. AND even if he wasn’t married, he couldn’t use it on any partner who can keep up, lol! He’s a christian and a rev, there’s no sex outside marriage.
