Jennifer Williams Drops Basketball Wives “Slap” Lawsuit

Now that the show is over, all is peaceful in the world again and Jennifer has dropped the lawsuit against Nia Crooks who slapped her on television for millions to see. 

According to TMZ:

Williams filed a lawsuit against Crooks … claiming she suffered serious injuries and psychological damage when Crooks belted her across the face back in January.

Fortunately, the smack was caught on tape and aired on the VH1 reality show. But earlier this month, Williams decided to abandon her lawsuit … and filed court docs to end the legal war forever. Sources say there was no settlement — Jennifer simply decided not to move forward.

A rep for Jennifer tells TMZ she is “already dealing with her difficult divorce and did not feel that it was necessary to continue to pursue civil action.”

Nia’s lawyer Javier Solano tells TMZ, “We have always maintained that the frivolous lawsuit brought by Jennifer Williams was nothing short of a last-gasp attempt to maintain her dwindling relevance on the ‘Basketball Wives.'”

“Nia is happy to put this issue behind her and start looking ahead to work on her own career.”

I’m glad that the two of them could look passed all this and realize none of it was worth it. I also hope it came with an apology from both parties and everyone moves on, in whatever direction that may be.
