Keisha Nash, who was married to Forest Whitaker for 22 years before their divorce in 2018, has away, as her daughter True Whitaker revealed in an emotional Instagram Story eulogy. Although Keisha’s cause of death is still unknown, it is known that she battled anorexia for years until checking herself into a rehab facility in 2014. Amidst Keisha’s hardships, Forest filed for divorce in 2018 on the grounds of irreconcilable differences.
Keisha and Forest first connected in 1994 while filming “Blown Away.” A year later, they became engaged, and in 1996 they were married in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Together, they gave birth to two daughters: True Whitaker, who is now 25 and wants to be an actress, and Sonnet Noel Whitaker, who is currently 27 and pursuing a music career.
The smallest of their daughters, True, sent a heartfelt statement on Instagram praising her mother, whom she described as the “most beautiful woman in the world.” Along with the song “A Song For You” by Donny Hathaway, a second photograph was sent, along by an accompanying black-and-white shot.
The multidimensional Keisha founded Kissable Couture, a makeup line, in 2008, although she acknowledged the difficulties in balancing her jobs as a wife, mother, businesswoman, performer, and producer. She noted in an interview that it was hard to fit in while at her kids’ soccer games, but she gave her nanny credit for helping.
Keisha praised Forest’s devotion to family in spite of their divorce, emphasizing that he would make the trip home, even if it was just for a brief respite from filming. Many sites have inquired about Forest’s response to Keisha’s passing, despite the fact that the well-known actor has not yet commented on the news.
Keisha Nash’s life was characterized by a variety of endeavors, including her marriage to Forest Whitaker, her struggles with anorexia, and her work as a businesswoman and mother. There is a vacuum left by her departure, and the family is receiving many condolences during this difficult time.
