Mo'Nique And Husband Respond To Son's Claim Of Bad Parenting

Mo’Nique and her husband Sidney Hicks have issued a response to the comedian’s son Shalon Jackson after he claimed her recent statements regarding their relationship were made with false intentions. On Tuesday (Feb. 13), the couple took to social media to address Jackson’s allegations against his mother which included a lack of desire to be his parent.

In the Instagram video, both Mo’Nique and Sidney address her son.

“There are some people who are saying ‘you should be ashamed of your mothering skills,'” detailed the Precious actress. “Let’s let it play out. The same ones who said to me I was crazy and deranged, we watched it play out. So, just like with my son we’ll watch this play out.”

She continued to refute Jackson calling Hicks “daddy,” a name that she uses for her husband in public and private.

“When you said ‘her daddy, her daddy,’ that’s when mommy is going to say stop playing,” she explained. “You know this has been ‘Uncle Sid’ your whole life. He knew you before you knew you. So, for you to say her ‘three sons,’ you’re absolutely right; he has three sons. He cannot claim you as his son because he has always been ‘Uncle Sid’ and he knows your daddy very well.”

Sidney himself added to the video, reminding Jackson of the financial support he once received from his mother. The three have allegedly not seen each other since 2021.

“The irony of all this is not what is said but what’s left off. See you’re leaving off the fact that the last time we laid eyes on you, your mother got you everything you needed for the newborn baby about three years. You’re forgetting how I, from Georgia, was talking you through getting your car after we gave you the half-payment for it and you were 31, 32 years old at that point.”

The back-and-forth between the mother and son began after Mo’Nique visited Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast. In the conversation, she alleged that she had taken accountability, leaving any other efforts to her son.

In the TikTok uploaded by Jackson alleged that Mo’nique’s description of their bond was a “false narrative.”

“I would like to free her from having to continue telling that lie,” detailed Jackson. “Faith without work is dead, and neither one of us cares to put forth any effort to reconcile with the other. We are separate as she put it because she doesn’t care to be my mother any more than I care to be her son.”
