Tiffany Haddish is having her ‘moment’ and is primed to have an even bigger 2018.

The comedian’s recently released memoir The Last Black Unicorn has received praise for its honesty and incredible details of Haddish’s life.

Fabricated?

The comedian took to social media to inform people that some of the details included in the book may have been exaggerated. Her ex-husband, who she wrote was a vicious, abusive partner is lashing out at the portrayal of him saying on Instagram that:

“I ont [sic] want to respond to my character and my family matters in the book. At this time I will not through [sic] dirt at Tiffany or release things that I know will harm her. I actually don’t think this was all Tiffany’s doings [sic]… I think people were telling her they need to add stuff to fluff it up. I have NEVER HIT or beat a woman in my life. I’m hurting and thanks.”

The truth comes out

Tiffany has now said, “I ain’t gon’ lie. Some stuff in the book is a little bit… I was like, ‘What?'”

She went on to say, “I don’t know if when they edit, maybe they tweak things a little. So, then, in the audiobook, I’m like, ‘No, this is what it is.'”

Haddish married and divorced the man she wrote about two times. The book stated, “He grabbed me by the collar, he was like, ‘It’s time to go to the room now,’ in front of everybody.

“Just snatched me by my shirt, and pulled me to the elevator and threw me in it…once we got to our hotel room, he was so quick. He snatched me by the neck and slammed me into the wall.”
