Fantasia Barrino's married lover says she did not break up his marriage.
A statement released by Antwuan Cook's lawyer states,
"Antwaun would be remiss not to address the criticism and judgment he has received. He knew Fantasia Barrino but the failure of his marriage can in no way be blamed on anyone except the two people that were a part of the union – Paula and Antwaun."
"[Paula and Antwaun] expected their marriage to stand the test of time. Unfortunately, like many marriages, it did not turn out as planned. In late summer 2009, after years of discussion, the parties separated with the intention of no longer being married."
Antwaun's statement is the complete opposite of his wife Paula's who says Fantasia absolutely did break up their marriage and that she and Antwaun didn't agree to separate until June 2010.
