Nia Long Moves On

NIA LONG

Nia Long, the actress known for her roles in The Best Man and Fatal Affair, shared a cryptic post on her Instagram account on Saturday, April 29. The post read: "The best revenge, is no revenge. Move on. Be happy." The post received supportive comments from several celebrities, including Holly Robinson Peete, Keyshia Cole and Tanya Sam.

The post comes months after Long's ex-fiancé, Ime Udoka, was fired from the Boston Celtics for having an affair with a female staffer while they were engaged. Udoka recently became the head coach of the Houston Rockets. Long and Udoka had been dating since 2010 and got engaged in 2015. They have a son together, Kez, who is 11 years old.

Long has not publicly addressed the affair, but she told the Hollywood Reporter in December that it was "unfortunate and painful" and that it affected their son. She said she was focusing on her children and rebuilding her life. Long also has another son, Massai, who is 22 years old, from a previous relationship.
