Tiffany Haddish is now opening up about her past police interactions and how it continues to affect her to this day. On the podcast, Hustling With Vivica A. Fox, the actress recalled being assaulted by a police cadet at 17-years-old. Tiffany, 40, didn't give any details about the assault, but admitted that she continued to have a series of relationships with men working in law enforcement to get "revenge."
She went into detail and said, "I dated a police officer, a prosecutor, an attorney. I dated several types of people, thinking, 'Oh if I date them, they'll love me and they'll want and support me with my cause of getting justice for my family and myself.' But they were like, 'na.'"
Haddish mentioned that nobody ever helped get her the justice she was looking for, and she was left feeling like she had lost a piece of her soul. She also said that she regretted believing any other police officers, and that they will help her get justice. The Girls Trip actress admitted that the attack was a "traumatic" experience that "messed up" her understanding of sex and relationships.
