Monica addressed all the questions that has been thrown at her the past two weeks about the breakup between her and Atlanta rap star Rocko the father of her two kids. The drama could not have come at a more wrong time considering Monica had been in the middle of prepping the release of her fifth studio album "Still Standing" in stores today March 23, 2010.
The 29 year old singer told VIBE MAGAZINE "I Never Felt So Confused". Who you telling Mo because I am sure the fans were as well considering the public had been watching her hit BET reality series Monica "Still Standing". The couple seem to be happy but then again we did not see too much of Rocko on the show or was he just touring. The couple has been off and on for the past ten years so things def was not perfect. When the rumors begin to circulate Monica took to her twitter page to release her thought to the public. Below are the statements she gave VIBE MAGAZINE.
“I chose Twitter as a forum to say what I felt at that time because there was no other way for me to say it once,” Monica told VIBE. “Had I been on radio, had I been interviewed, it would’ve been over and over again. That was just a quick way to say, ‘I know what’s taking place on the Web sites. I want you to know that I’m okay.’ But it really is a private matter. You just lose the privacy once you become an artist. So I'm not upset about it in any way.”
Prior to the announcement, rumors floated that Rocko had been cheating on the singer, 29, who said she was aware of all the hearsay and felt confused with what was happening.
“It was a situation I didn’t ask to be in, so to speak. Once something is put up on a Web site and things about your personal life are spread all around, it’s unfortunate,” said Monica. “I don’t even know specifically who they spoke to, but I do know that I never felt so… I guess the word would be confused more than anything else. If you go to sleep and you wake up and you see something for the first time, it’s a little scary, you know. I’m too grown now to go investigating leads. The reality is that I have to play my position as their mom and do what it is that’s best for me.”
Despite the relationship’s ending, Monica said the two remain on good terms and that their journey together has been mostly positive.
“When I met him, I was only 19 years old and the good definitely outweighed the bad over the years so we don’t have any hard feelings towards one another,” said Monica. “Anything that involves children is gonna be more emotional. I think that’s the area that makes it more difficult… My priority is to make sure that whatever is done is best for them. I’m secondary in the picture and so is their dad and we have a close bond for over a decade. So regardless of what takes place in the media, there’s still certain things that will happen amongst the four of us for the rest of our lives and that’s just never gonna change.”
