   It looks like this fairy tale marriage isn’t ending with happily ever after. 

On Tuesday, August 12, 2008, Premier Michael Misick issued a brief statement that he and his wife, LisaRaye are officially separated  – confirming months of rumor reports that LisaRaye was living apart from him in the U.S. after his rape allegations surfaced earlier this year.  The two have been married less than 3 years. Trouble surfaced apparently while LisaRaye was reportedly traveling for her acting role in a NYC stage play earlier this year. 

It was alleged that during this time, her husband raped a woman from the U.S. who was rumored to have been a ‘friend’ of his wife’s.  Rumors further surfaced that said woman was BET’s “106 & Park”show host, Rocsi.  Misick denied the rape allegations altogether.  It was later reported though, that Rocsi reportedly showed up to the Turks & Caicos Music Festival on the arm of the Premier in his wife’s absence.  The two were even photographed together.  Rumors again flew that Rosci was indeed the ‘woman who cried rape’ and did so to cover the fact that she was Misick’s mistress. 

As if it weren’t tacky enough to show up at a public event as the date of a married man, – the island’s Premier in fact -  presumed ‘jump-off’, Rocsi apparently stayed at the mansion with the Premier and hosted guests as though she were the lady of the manor.  (Rosci shown below with LisaRaye’s husband)

When this news about Rosci and Misick broke, it was then reported that LisaRaye pawned her 10-carat wedding out of anger.  There were also murmurs that although she was aware of her husband’s indiscretions, she would not file for divorce because she did not stand to gain much financially,  if anything.  There were also speculations that she did not wish to give up her status as First Lady of the Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI) and all the perks that come along with it.

LisaRaye however, was spotted & photographed in recent weeks at rapper Lil’ Kim’s birthday party in NYC french kissing an unidentified man. The photos appeared on Mediatakeout.com.   Lisa Raye has also been linked to former NBA star Gary Payton.  LisaRaye and Michael Misick’s marital woes have been previously blogged about on HickTown HERE and HERE.  Based on these reports, this may be the new circus in town….. Stay tuned!  SOURCE
