Neilson Barnard/Getty Images for Samsung Galaxy; Kevin Mazur/Getty ImagesMusic producer and DJ Oladipo “Dot Da Genius” Omishore has responded to Jhene Aiko‘s recent claims about the reason behind their divorce. Yesterday, Aiko wrote in a now deleted tweet that Omishore, “jumped ship a long time ago” and urged her fans to “never let a man disrespect u in any way.” In his own words on Twitter, Omishore provided his side of the story. “In light of the public threats, false allegations, and attempts to slander my name and character, I am compelled to speak up, ” he writes.
“Because my nature is peaceful, I’ve been silent out of respect for all involved, and to maintain my privacy. However, I believe the truth must be heard, which is that I’ve never been violent or abusive towards any woman in my life. Such behavior is abhorrent to me and far from how I conduct myself.”
Aiko revealed the relationship in 2014 and the couple confirmed their marriage this March. Aiko filed for divorce from Omishore this month, citing irreconcilable differences.
