Taye Diggs White EX Wife Says Black Women Did THIS To Their Marriage

Actor Taye Diggs’ ex-wife, Idina Menzel, 52, was a guest on Jesse Tyler Ferguson’s Dinner’s on Me podcast recently. She got candid about a major cause of their divorce, which was finalized in 2014, and it happened to be the fact that their relationship was an interracial one. The former couple and co-parents met in 1996 on the set of Rent, a beloved Broadway musical. Menzel made her Broadway debut as Maureen Johnson and Diggs, 52, played Benjamin “Benny” Coffin III. The then couple tied the knot in 2003. Ferguson asked how both of them rising to fame as actors affected their relationship. “It’s very complicated,” she said before adding that they were “very supportive of each other always, so excited for him. The thing that came into play more and he’s talked about it too is the interracial aspect.” She went on to explain that during their time in theater, they lived in a bubble where people were mostly accepting. However, when they got into the limelight, things changed.
