Kimora Lee Simmons announced her split from Baby Phat via Twitter in August 2010. She admits the split was less than amicable. "It's over. It's absolutely over. It was very abrupt and sudden. I was shocked," she told the Daily News at Macy's Herald Square. She wouldn't confirm that she was pushed out, but said: "It's very, very sad for me. It was totally unexpected."[1]
