Ice-T's Wedding Plans Hit A Glitch
Yahoo! Music, Mar 7, 2003 12:00 pm PST(3/7/03, 12 p.m. ET) -- Rapper-actor Ice-T is engaged to Nicole "Coco" Austin, but she has some legal issues to clean up before they can marry. It seems Austin is still married to Eddie Williams, whom she wed in Las Vegas in 1999, according to New York's Daily News.
Williams's friend told the newspaper, "Eddie gave the world to this girl...The disgusting thing is it looks to Eddie like she is still wearing his ring. He saw it in a picture in the paper."
Williams is also suffering from kidney failure and is in line for a transplant. Austin is believed to have filed for divorce in Arizona, where the couple lived.
In related news, Ice-T is preparing for the launch of his new clothing line, IceWear, in July. The rapper and Austin also have plans to launch a women's fashion line.
