Tisha Campbell had to find herself again after her divorce from Duane Martin. In a sit-down with “Ebro in the Morning,” she revealed, “Going through and navigating and rediscovering one’s self outside of the labels is one of the most devastating things one can go through in a relationship. But it’s a beautiful devastation.” The actor revealed that she went “through the five stages of grief” at the beginning, but slowly pushed through. “Then all of a sudden, there’s an awakening. There’s an, ‘I can do this. I can navigate,'” Campbell added. She admitted that she was in “survival mode” after her divorce and was just focused on her kids. The actor also shared that she lost some friendships because of the split. “It’s more than just uncoupling with an individual. It’s an entire group. It’s an entire family … and now I have four friends that I kick it with, period.”

While Campbell and Martin were not ordered to pay spousal and child support, the “Uncoupled” actor revealed to Entertainment Tonight that she was flat-out broke at the time of the divorce. “No one knows that but I had nothing. Nothing in the bank, nothing. I had maybe $7 to my name and I was scared. It was like I was starting all over,” she admitted. Despite her tough time, Campbell made it through with the help of her kids, and she ultimately reclaimed her identity.
