Tempestt Bledsoe is best known for her role as Vanessa Huxtable, Cliff and Clair Huxtable’s fourth child, on the NBC sitcom The Cosby Show.
Bledsoe has also hosted television shows such as The Tempestt Bledsoe Show and Clean House on the Style Network.
The 47-year-old actress has bucked expectations in her personal life and forged her own way. She believes that marriage isn’t the best way to obtain security and happiness, thus despite having a long-term boyfriend, she is single.
Relationship Status
Since 1993, the Clean House actress has been dating actor Darryl M. Bell, who starred in the A Different World spinoff of The Cosby Show.
The two initially met on the set of A Different World, when she was a guest star, in 1989. They first became friends and then began dating four years later.
They also participated together on Fox’s reality show Househusbands of Hollywood in August 2009. Despite the fact that they are not married, the couple was featured on the show, which focused on married couples, due to their long-term relationship.
Tempestt told Hello Beautiful magazine in 2012 that marriage could be looming in the future, and she backed up her statement with an old English proverb, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
“I believe we are a good match. That, I believe, is the crux of the matter “In July 2009, she told The Oklahoman that she was pregnant. “People are curious as to what it is. Many couples, I believe, find themselves together only to discover that they are not a good match. And, of course, laughter is essential.”
Tempestt is still unmarried, according to reports, but she enjoys her connection with her partner.
Weight-loss and skin-health campaigns are promoted
The actress is one of the most outspoken when it comes to the importance of staying healthy. She reportedly lost 19 pounds while filming the VH1 show Celebrity Fit Club and has yet to regain the weight.
In March 2011, the actress told People, “What works best for me is to try to eat healthily and not worry about the scale.”
Tempestt, a vegetarian, advises obese people to join a gym and do regular activities in order to lose weight and maintain a healthy body.
She also believes that sunscreen should be used to protect the skin from skin cancer. She was the face of the ‘Go Naked’ skin cancer ad campaign, which educated people about skin cancer and the importance of wearing sunscreen.
