As a member of the hip-hop group Run-DMC and better known to fans by his stage name Rev Run, Joseph Simmons has been a mainstay in the music industry for many years. As a result of Rev Run’s fame, members of his family, including daughter Angela Simmons, have gained notoriety. But Rev Run’s life includes more than simply his daughter Angela; according to public broadcaster GPB, the hip-hop singer has been wed to Justine Simmons since 1994.
Although GPB points out that Justine has long been a part of reality television with her husband and the rest of her family, starting with the MTV reality series “Run’s House” in 2005, there is much more to learn about Justine besides the fact that she comes from a family that easily qualifies as hip-hop royalty, if not music industry royalty. Here are some further details on Justine Simmons, from how she met Rev Run to her professional background.
Justine Simmons met Rev Run at an early age
It’s important to note that Justine Simmons (née Jones) and her husband Rev Run have a lengthy relationship. According to GPB, Simmons and Rev met while they were both teenagers in 1982. The fact that the hip-hop legend once wrote Simmons in a letter and said, “I will marry you someday,” suggests that they had a good feeling about one other from the beginning, according to the publication.
In the end, Joseph was correct. Although Justine and Joseph have had four children together, three of them biologically and one through adoption, in addition to Joseph’s three children from his previous marriage, GPB notes that “someday” ultimately came after the dissolution of Joseph’s first marriage to Valerie Vaughn.
Victoria Anne, a daughter delivered to the couple in 2006, tragically passed very soon after birth as a result of complications from a congenital defect, according to People.
Justine Simmons has remained close to her husband
Justine Simmons and Rev Run have remained a strong couple despite difficulties in their marriage; in fact, they wrote a book in 2020 called “Old School Love: And Why It Works,” which they talked extensively about in an interview with Ebony. Simmons has written two further novels, “God Can You Hear Me” and “Take Back Your Family,” and she has created the Brown Sugar jewellery line.
The couple have demonstrated their humanitarian sides in addition to their many other jobs and obligations, according to an article from Andscape: They both act as brand ambassadors for the pharmaceutical firm Novo Nordisk and have lectured to students about healthy eating and diabetes, which runs in both of their families.
Above all, it appears that the Simmons are the epitome of a powerful couple who are content and healthy.
