"I loved her before I was in love with her because she is such a special human being," Niecy told People. "But we began to see each other in a way we never had before. Sometimes you get so broken by love, you run from it. But I've learned that you should always hold space for magic because it can happen at any time."
The Dahmer actress was married twice before her relationship with Jessica, enjoying a 13-year marriage to ordained minister Don Nash, with whom she shares three children. The pair divorced in 2007 and in 2010, she became engaged to Jay Tucker.
Niecy was married to Jay from 2011 to 2019, when they announced their pending divorce, which was finalized in March 2020.

The two characters locked eyes outside of Simone's father's house when the FBI rookie mistook her for a man. "Scuse me sir," she said, before DJ quickly responded: "Sir?"
A flustered Simone replied, "Mam? Sorry. My bad," before DJ reassured her, "It's cool, it happens."
