Niecy Nash Reveals How She Identifies After Marrying Jessica Betts
Niecy Nash, who fell in love with her best friend, Jessica Betts, and married her in 2020, admits to being a bit mystified by all the designators on the sexuality and gender spectrum.Ahead of Nash’s marriage to Betts, Nash’s youngest daughter, Dia, asked her mother how she identified. Nash had had two marriages to men previously.“Dia, your youngest, really wanted you to label things,” Tamron Hall said to Nash on Tuesday’s episode of Hall’s eponymous talk show. “We talk so much about LGBTQ+, binary, nonbinary, and I know people were asking, well what is Niecy Nash? Is she bisexual? You were getting these questions.”“My daughter was like, ‘How do you identify?’ I said, ‘Huh?’” Nash recalled.
