Vanessa Williams was Rick Fox’s wife from 1999-2004. Williams and Fox suffered a very public divorce after The National Enquirer published pictures that showed the NBA star kissing another woman in 2004.
This was not the first time that Vanessa’s life had been affected by the publication of compromising photographs.
She was crowned Miss American in 1984, but was forced to resign the honor later that year when it was revealed that there existed nude photographs of her posing with another woman.
The pictures were purchased and published by Penthouse, and the Vanessa Williams issue reportedly brought the company $14 million.
Vanessa went on to be a very successful pop star, and has had no trouble finding work in film and television, though she will probably always be best known for her Miss America scandal.
