Sneed: Obama’s top adviser, Valerie Jarrett, is dating Ahmad Rashad
Chicago Sun-Times ^ | March 3, 2014 | Sneed

Posted on 03/06/2014 5:52:07 PM PST by maggief

Sneed is told senior White House adviser Valerie Jarrett is dating Ahmad Rashad, the four-times-married sportscaster who was once a wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings.

Although Jarrett has told at least one Chicago pal “it is not serious,” Sneed hears Rashad accompanied Jarrett to first lady Michelle Obama’s 50th birthday party at the White House in January.

(snip)

Rashad, who converted to Islam, was originally named Bobby Moore.

◆ Backshot: Rashad was photographed at an event in the East Room of the White House last Thursday to promote the “My Brother’s Keeper” initiative introduced by President Barack Obama urging America’s businessmen, philanthropists and government leaders to join forces and place more young men of color on a successful path.

Interesting. I knew she’s been divorced for decades, and figured she graduated to the lesbo side.

Think that was wife #3.

wiki:

In 2007, Rashad wed his fourth wife, Sale Johnson (ex-wife of Johnson & Johnson billionaire heir, and New York Jets owner, Woody Johnson)

Good luck on this one From wiki: Rashād has been married and divorced four times. In 1969, he married his first wife Deidre Waters. They had a daughter, Keva, born in 1970. He also has a son, Sean, born in 1970. In 1976, he married his second wife, Matilda Johnson. They had two children, daughter Maiyisha (born in 1976) and son Ahmad Jr. (born in 1978). They divorced in 1979. In 1985, Rashād married Cosby Show actress Phylicia Ayers-Allen, to whom he proposed on national television during the pregame show of NBC's broadcast of the Thanksgiving Day football game between the Detroit Lions and the New York Jets.[3] It was the third marriage for both. Unlike many actresses, she adopted her husband's surname (shortly after the wedding), and has the professional name "Phylicia Rashād" ever since. Out of this marriage, he gained a stepson Billy Bowles (born 1973). After a year of marriage, Ahmad and Phylicia had a daughter, Condola Phylea Rashād (named after his mother). After nearly sixteen years of marriage, Ahmad and Phylicia divorced in 2001. In 2007, Rashād wed his fourth wife, Sale Johnson (ex-wife of Johnson & Johnson billionaire heir, and New York Jets owner, Woody Johnson). He gained three step-daughters from this marriage. They adopted Sale Johnson's granddaughter, then divorced in 2013.[4]

Johnson is the ex-wife of Johnson & Johnson heir and New York Jets owner Woody Johnson, from whom she collected $100million in their divorce, according to the New York Post.

A source told Gossip Extra that Johnson is protected by a prenuptial agreement that blocks Rashad from receiving a dime from her once the divorce is final.

what could he possibly see in Jarrett? Power?

I can only hope that he sees a devoted wife, fit for maximum burka, to tuck her away at home, as far away from the white hut as possible.

Should we name that the John F'n Kerry Tri-fecta?

How about the Horizontal Hat-trick?
