Author #AliceWalker Opens Up About Her Romantic Relationship With Singer #TracyChapman

Wrong, sister. Very wrong. Tracy was entitled to her privacy and out of love you should have respected that.

[Treshii]

I feel she’s 100% wrong for outing someone who wanted privacy

[Terry_]

Pretty arrogant and self-centered to think you can coldly out someone without their permission. Sure relationships change and some end badly, but with Alice's attitude, I'm not surprised the relationship didn't last very long. Tracy deserves better.

So Alice is that person who will forcefully out you because she no longer likes you.... Tracy is a private person, keeps her life to herself, hard to find her interviews...

[KarenPackwood]

So very glad that Tracey got out of that toxic relationship.

She could've easily talked about her sexuality in her book without mentioning names. It's Tracy's life too. And I'm sure she regrets sharing that part with you now. But you had to mention her because Tracy is a prominent musician. If she was a homeless or college fling, you wouldn't care to name her.

You’re someone that blew the most sacred thing in a relationship, TRUST. You have just told the world you can never ever be trusted. Everyone take note, this woman cannot be trusted. Shame on you Alice Walker, for even speaking like this. For the rest of your life you will be seen as someone that cannot be trusted, EVER.

[Ravenz]

That was ridiculous and very selfish of her, probably why the relationship didn't last.

That’s the same way that I felt when Whitney Houston’s friend Robin came out and said that Whitney was gay. I felt that was disrespectful but other people thought that Robin had a right to tell her story. True but when the other person is not here to refute or verify it then it’s wrong. You don’t wait until someone is dead to tell a story that includes them.

She Wolfe...., lookin like a sweet lill Grandma....

[asalane]

She is allowed to tell her story. We are not beholden to our exes' stories.

[naebonnie]

Now we know what the color purple based off of tracy is ceily and Alice is shug 😂

[Joemnc]

Why put out someone’s business if they want it to be private? Feels like she just wanted attention. And, shame on Gayle for bringing it up.

[JAZZLlFE]

Who is going to interview Gayle about Oprah!

[debbiehodson]

You know, I've read all the comments below. Here we are, ironically writing our opinions about Tracy. I think the best thing we can do is to not discuss it anymore & respect Tracy's privacy. Her music is another matter, one that does matter, because it is her legacy of time. 😮❤

That left a bad taste in my mouth. Miss Alice For anyone wondering Tracy did clap back creatively in a song. Look at the lyrics in Tracy’s song “Telling Stories.” It’s pretty hilarious actually 😂. That was definitely a diss song to Miss Alice ❤

[xiomanaxoxoxo]

Alice is wrong as articulate as she is wrong for this and will regret this moment. I'm embarrassed for her. What a rude selfish and obnoxious response.

[lauriekash]

Yes, Tracy, she got out of triangulation with Walker's daughter. I mean, Walker should just respect Tracy's protection of her private life, like Greta Garbo. It is her life. Walker is wounding, it seems to me. Tracy is very private - had no idea what was behind the novelists' corner.

[reignrobinson]

Alice Walker is 20 years Tracey Chapmans senior. I can see why the relationshop dissolved...

[corinehenry]

This is messed up.
SELFISH.
Why did she fo this????
