We old schoolers remember Dondre Whitfield as “Vanessa Huxtable’s” boyfriend, “Robert,” on “The Cosby Show”, but this man has had plenty more memorable roles since then, with his most recent ones being in a new drama series on Oprah’s OWN network called “Queen Sugar” and on BET’s comedy, “Real Husbands of Hollywood.” So now that the brotha’s a 49 year old man with a long list of acting credits, let’s all try to refer to him as Dondre and not “Robert” for once, LOL. Here’s the thing that we wanted to share with y’all about Dondre though- he and actress, Salli Richardson, 50 (best known for her role in “Low Down Dirty Shame”), have been happily married for 16 years and have two very adorable children who look like little Salli/Dondre mini-me’s. Check them out below…
WHAT DONDRE WHITFIELD AND SALLI RICHARDSON ARE DOING NOW
Before we show you their kids, we have to fill y’all in on what the couple is doing these days. Dondre is currently starring on the OWN Network show, “Queen Sugar.” And get this, Salli is not acting in it, but she IS directing it! That’s cool isn’t it? Okay now wait ’til you see Dondre’s and Salli’s adorable mini-me’s>>>
DONDRE’S & SALLI’S SON AND DAUGHTER
Meet Dondre’s and Salli’s 13 year old daughter, Parker, and their 9 year old son, Dre…
Parker is also a little model, in 2013 she modeled for Nordstrom’s Mia Chica kid’s clothing line.
And as you can see, Dre likes chillin’ at games with his Pops…
Parker and Dre are clearly the loves of their parents’ lives and just like their pops’ former TV show, they are fortunate to be growing up in a household with two parents who not only love each other, but actually LIKE each other a lot too, LOL, just like “Heathcliff” and “Claire” did on “The Cosby Show.” C’mon now Old Schoolers, we all know there’s a big difference between loving the one you’re with vs. loving AND liking the one you’re with. We’ve been around the block enough to know that sometimes we can love our partners, but they work on our last damn nerve all the time, LOL. Dondre and Salli don’t seem to have that problem though and they often post lovey dovey pics and videos on social media about each other to prove it.
