Charity Greenleaf aka Deborah Joy Winans Stars in COLOR OF LOVE on Lifetime on Easter Sunday!

Hello World,

Deborah Joy Winans, formerly Charity Greenleaf of OWN Greenleaf, has been booked for several acting/hosting roles lately! Good for her! And here’s another one: Color of Love. Below is the synopsis:

Inspired by a true story, Color of Love follows Monica Henderson (Winans), an African American widow with two kids who has so much love to give, she often fosters children who need a home. When she finds out that Peter and Rachel, the white brother and sister she fostered twice before, fled from their latest foster home, she takes them in again. Fearing the kids are in danger of slipping through the cracks of a flawed system, she begins the process of adopting them. Despite Monica’s mother and her boyfriend Theo’s beliefs that Peter and Rachel may be better off with a white family, Monica’s love for the kids puts the question of what makes a family to the test. (Think reverse Blind Side.)
Watch Color of Love on Lifetime on Easter Sunday, April 4, at 8PM ET/PT.
Below is the trailer:

Color of Love is produced by Reel One in association with Lifetime. Executive producers include Tamara Bass, Suzanne Chapman, Tom Berry and Barbara Fisher. Don McBrearty directs from a script by Tamara Bass.

Below is more information from PEOPLE magazine.

…The former Destiny’s Child member, 39, and Texas entrepreneur, 40, announced that they are divorcing after three years of marriage, and four months after welcoming son Tysun Wolf.

“After very prayerful consideration, Tommicus and I have decided to get a divorce,” she wrote, sharing a photo of the two and their children Tysun, 4 months, and Gianna Iman, 2. “It is my deepest desire for us to be loving co-parents and keep a peaceful environment out of respect for our children.”

“Please understand our need for privacy,” she ended the note, captioned “Love always 💔.” “Thank you in advance for your prayers, support & space to heal as we tread through this challenging time.”

Walker shared a similar message, describing their decision as “very difficult.”

“We remain committed to our family as co-parents and we ask that you please respect our privacy and the safety of our children at this time,” he wrote. “We happily remain committed as caring friends with great love and respect for one another.”

Tamera Mowry-Housley formerly of ‘The Real’ is Heading to Hallmark!

The Real talk show

Hello World,

If you’ve tuned into “The Real” lately, you’ve noticed that Tamera Mowry-Housley has left the building and has been replaced by Garcelle Beauvais. But apparently, Tamera Mowry-Housley had a good reason to leave the show after six seasons. See the news from Deadline below…

Tamera Mowry-Housley is expanding her relationship with Crown Media Family Networks,  signing a new overall deal to star in and executive produce original films for the network. First up is holiday-themed Christmas Comes Twice, set for premiere Sunday, December 13 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Additionally, Mowry-Housley will join Home & Family as a contributor beginning in December.

“We are thrilled to officially welcome Tamera Mowry-Housley to the Hallmark family,” said Michelle Vicary, EVP, Programming & Network Program Publicity, Crown Media Family Networks. “Having worked with Tamera on a few original movies previously it is a joy to have her star and executive produce more projects with us. The really exciting part of this deal is that she will join our talented cast of Home & Family, one of the best lifestyle shows in television.”

I miss her on “The Real,” but I think Hallmark better matches her Christian values and overall talent. What say you?
