Last week there were whispers Kimora Lee Simmons' fashion empire might be in danger because of the billion dollar Malaysian bond scandal involving her husband, former Goldman Sachs exec Tim Leissner [click here if you missed that].
Kimora sets the record straight...
Kimora Lee Simmons tells Women's Wear Daily,
“I’ve been around for quite some time. I’m an old lady so I’ve always been self-sustaining, self-funded. I’ve had Baby Phat and at one point Phat Farm, too. I’ve had Couture by Kimora, Fabulosity, KLS so this is not my first ride at the rodeo. I’ve had six or seven successful fragrances.”
“I fund my own business.…I’ve been in the fashion industry since [age] 12, modeling and all that. So all my money, not that I want to say it that way, this is my third marriage that I’m on so, no, my husband has nothing to do with my professional life.”
