Russell Simmons has publicly accused his ex-wife Kimora Lee Simmons of blocking his access to their daughters Ming Lee and Aoki Lee and allegedly using them as leverage to deter him from suing her over a disputed stock issue. Kimora counters in interviews with People and USA TODAY that she is effectively parenting alone because her children are with her almost all the time, while an embattled Simmons, facing numerous sexual assault accusations and multimillion dollar settlements, lives in Bali and insists there are two sides to their story.
