Following the sordid incident between the married man and Eddie Murphy’s ex-wife, Nicole sat down for an interview where she stated she wasn’t aware Antoine was still married. She was criticized by both the public and her former Hollywood friends including LisaRaye McCoy who accused Nicole having an affair with her ex-husband, Michael Misick, while they were together.
