Former reality TV personality, singer, and entrepreneur Kandi Burruss recently cleared up rumors about her marriage to Todd Tucker on daytime television as well as with Us Weekly. The TV host asked the actress about the stories claiming there is trouble in paradise for the married couple.

“Todd and I are not breaking up, we are going very strong,” she exclaimed. “I don’t know who makes these rumors up and starts it on the blogs or whatever but Todd and I are doing great.”

Although the two have been married for a solid decade, people think their love is over. But during another recent joint interview, the doting couple put those rumors to rest. While speaking to Us Weekly, the XSCAPE singer revealed that her daughter, Riley, brought the speculation to her attention.
“Riley actually sent it to me. She was like, ‘Why do people keep saying that y’all about to get divorced?’ I was like, ‘I don’t know,'” the singer told the outlet.
Burruss attempted to theorize how the rumors may have originated.
“I think it came from Todd and I on his YouTube. We were doing this thing called Todd and the Glam Squad where I would get my hair and makeup done and he would sit and we would talk about hot topics or relationship issues.”
“We’re passionate when we go back and forth. I think people kind of mistook that to say we were angry with each other. But we’re just debating the topic. We’re going back and forth about this,” Burruss continued. “I’ve been like that my whole life. As soon as we have a back and forth, I can walk out the room and be like, ‘OK, now what are we doing next?’ Whereas I guess to somebody that’s watching it, they are thinking that it’s more than that.”
Burruss also mentioned she is more likely to go ring-less than her husband.
“Today I do. But they’ll be like, ‘Why doesn’t she have on her ring?’ I hardly ever have it on. He always has his on. If he doesn’t have it on — then it’s going to be a problem. That’s going to be a problem.”
Burruss and Tucker tied the knot in 2014. They are parents to Ace, 7, and Blaze, 3. Tucker is also dad to Kaela, 27, from a previous relationship. Tucker also expressed that being in the spotlight has its woes.
“It is tough. You’re always on stage and you can’t really kind of relax out in public,” he told the outlet. “But for me, I think from doing reality TV early on with her, I really don’t pay it any more. We know what’s going on.”
