Who’s Surprised? Royce Reed Announces She and Dezmon Are Officially Over On Twitter

“Temptation is the devils cousin. It’ll take what u have by showin u what u think u want then laugh when u give up the best u had *MeSsAgE*”

Royce Reed of Basketball Wives tweeted that just hours before announcing (via Twitter of course) that she and her Tampa Bay Buccaneers boyfriend Dezmon Briscoe have officially called it quits with the tweets below:

"Royce Reed Tweets about Dezmon Briscoe"

Twitter.com

This announcement doesn’t come as a shock considering the drama that has ensued between these two for months. Dezmon has been accused of sexting other women, most notably the mother of his child. He admitted to the suggestive text messages between he and his son’s mother, but Royce appeared to want to move past it.

As Sister 2 Sister points out:

On Part 2 of the season 4 “Basketball Wives” reunion special [taped last month], fans will watch Royce Reed assert that she’s working to save her relationship with Briscoe.

On the show, she told host John Salley: “I decided to stay with Dezmon for all the things he did right, not the one thing he did wrong. Yes, it was wrong. Yes, I was hurt. Yes, I was humiliated, but I’m not gonna sit here and base my relationship off of what the world says I should do.”

It’s not clear what happened in the past month that made the reality TV star change her mind about saving the relationship, but who can blame her for walking away?

Dezmon hasn’t publicly acknowledged the split, in fact, besides retweeting a “Be the best you that you can be” tweet from Kevin D, he hasn’t tweeted a thing since Royce’s announcement. Considering his delayed reaction to being outed by his child’s mother, we can probably expect something from him in about a day or two, if he cares.

Do you think these two are done for good? Was Royce right to finally break things off with Dezmon?

    i think she has daddy issues…thats why she’s searching for love in all the wrong places….her dad needs to criticize less and compliment more than she wouldnt be head over heals every time a man tells her she’s pretty and hugs her….her dad obviously loves her and wants the best but he seems to go about it the wrong way. if it dont start at home believe she will search for the attention she wants from the first man who will give it to her

    Royce needs to keep her next relationship out of the public-sphere. I mean date whoever you want to date but please keep it your own business.

    She needs to slow her roll….damn. learn to control your emotions, stop sleeping with every man you meet, get to know them first.

    Not saying Royce is right for dating these manboys, but I understood when she said that it’s hard for her to find decent guys because most of the guys her age think she’s jailbait, and the few that do find her attractive have issues growing up and being men. I can see that. In fact, I go through it myself because I’m as small as Royce and I also look very young. And if I go through it at 23yrs old, I couldn’t imagine what it’s like going through it at 30-something.

    But the solution to that is not becoming a cougar. The solution is waiting until you find a good man who is mature and likes you for you. I’m single now, but I’m patient, and I’m taking my time dating and enjoying my youth. I don’t fall in love with every guy I date. She needs to learn to date and not become so serious so quickly.

    Royce is so THIRSTY! Its really lame… for her to be in her 30s and still have the mind frame of a 11th grader. smh

  • CA Pullen

    Is there something else exciting going on for you to write on beside this? The guy is young and seem somewhat immature. I don’t know why people continue to put their personal information out on the internet. People really to think before they press send. Royce needs to understand that you can’t make a person marry you when he does not want to marry you.

  • Tallchiick

    Royce should listen to her Daddy..b/c he has been right every time…and she did all of that crying/whining for nothing, when he was just telling her the truth….I swear she looks like a child, dresses like a child, and acts like a young girl…time to grow up Royce…I’m 26 and have more common sense.

    Royce is an ugly low self esteem woman. She chases these men who really don’t want her but if she is offering the puss to them of course they will take it. Dezmon never wanted Royce’s ugly azz. He is in his 20s and is handsome. That bytch was ugly.

    • guest

      it’s sad that you have to resort to name calling. Royce is a pretty young woman, and she, like all of us, made some poor choices in her relationships. It is a learning process, and calling someone “ugly” adds nothing to the conversation.

    • Baddvixentype

      there was not one positive thing you wrote…what was your point in commenting anyways then? you say low self esteem, how are you helping by insulting her? you need to have a seat.
      remember what momma said “if you dont have anything nice to say…dont say anthing at all”.

    Her dad read her down on that show and e was 100% correct

    Royce, stop being desperate. Get some sense, and stop falling for immature kids.

    She’s a serial monogamist. She falls madly in love in 2 months and thinks she’s found the one. Her dad is right from what I can see. She really needs to slow down and date around, get to know people, and pick the best of the bunch before she calls herself being in a relationship. And she needs to with hold that nookie, because to me it seems that she falls in love really easy because she gives it up to soon.

    Dez was a very sloppy cheater. He probably got caught cheating once again and she got fed up.

  • Kendall

    Wasn’t he like five years old anyway? Glad she dropped him back off at the daycare.

    Damn that Twitter! Why make public service announcements of your life? And munchkins should come first, anyway.

  • bluekissess

    Lets me honest… the power of the D made her stay. She came to her senses. But you can’t make a boy be a man. I’m 25 years old and I know that you can’t “change” someone who doesn’t want to be changed.

      Very true!

        funny for using someone else user name.
