Idina Menzel: "Interracial aspect" played role in Taye Diggs divorce

Idina Menzel says criticism over interracial marriage strained her relationship with ex-husband Taye Diggs.

Broadway star Idina Menzel opened up about the complexities of her interracial marriage with Taye Diggs and how the public reaction contributed to their divorce.
Menzel mentioned during various interviews that the theater community where they met was much more accepting, but when they entered the larger entertainment world, the racial differences started causing issues.
Diggs, who became a heartthrob after starring in various films and TV shows, got additional attention from the Black community which created pressure on their relationship.
Despite the cultural and racial challenges, Menzel highlighted that Diggs was always supportive, especially when she gained fame for her role in 'Wicked'.
Post-divorce, Menzel and Diggs have maintained a healthy co-parenting relationship for their son Walker, ensuring they always prioritize his well-being.
