When you’ve been together as long as Boris Kodjoe and Nicole Ari Parker have been, there are things you start to reminisce about when the newness of the relationship was still there. While speaking about their union via Instagram Live, Nicole admitted that she misses the single life.

However, it’s not the way that it sounds. The actress loves her husband and doesn’t mean that she misses being single — she misses the little things that couples do when they first start dating.

‘Sometime in the last year or so I thought, you know, I wish that he was my boyfriend again. I don’t necessarily want to be single, but I miss the single life. I miss the text messages for no reason. I miss the coming up behind me when I’m scrambling eggs and just kissing me on the back of the neck.’

She explained wanting the romantics to be put back into their longstanding marriage.

‘I personally believe that if you’re in it for the long haul, that freshness and newness is still possible if you talk about it. Be like, ‘Look, I know we talk about date night. Let’s go have a date night. I know we talk about kissing and texting for no reason, but the last time you text me was over like the cabinet guy.’

Soon after, the clip went viral and many people commented about Boris not paying enough attention to his wife. It sparked rumors that there was trouble in paradise.

It stirred up so much controversy that the actor has decided to clap back.

He took to Instagram to let haters know that he and Nicole are doing just fine.

‘Come on y’all, really?! #OkFirstOfAll you’re chomping on a short clickbait 1min slice of a HILARIOUS HOUR LONG conversation on our best friends’ new show #SecondOfAll this part was meant to give hope to those of us who’ve been together a LONGA$$Time #RealTalk. And #ThirdOfAll, my wife was right!#boyfriendgirlfriendtimematters. And please don’t tag me in anymore of this #BullSh@&$. I’ll be over here kissing the back of @nicoleariparker’s neck for no reason.’
