Keke Palmer recently opened up about dating an older man when she was only 15, calling the relationship “inappropriate” and expressing regret. In an interview with People, Palmer explained that although she believed an older man could relate to her demanding life at the time, she now sees that the relationship wasn’t healthy.
“Obviously, I shouldn’t have been 15 dating a 20-year-old,” she recalled, adding that she now recognises the power dynamics involved. Reflecting as an adult, she noted, “The power dynamic put me in a position that harmed me in ways I couldn’t have known.”
The True Jackson, VP star shared that she didn’t find true love until her late 20s. Now 31, Palmer is navigating co-parenting with Darius Jackson, with whom she shares a son, Leo. Despite past challenges, they’ve recently reconciled after a high-profile custody battle. Palmer also revealed how fame complicated her relationships, saying, “Too many voices get in… It’s hard to explain.”
