KeKe Jabbar was forced to defend herself earlier this year
Earlier this year, Jabbar was accused of using hard drugs and using someone else’s urine to pass a drug test.
She vehemently denied the allegations on the Season 7 reunion.
“I’ve never taken any kind of hard drug,” Jabbar said at the time while maintaining that she was sober.
“I’ve never taken anything, heroin, cocaine, crack… I’ve never taken anything like that.”
In addition to appearing on the OWN reality series, Jabbar was also a writer, editor, author, and professor.
She is survived by her three kids, her husband, her parents, and cousins.
