Hubert, who has been very vocal about her dislike for Will and has always refused to participate in the reunions, shared her tough experience as a black woman in Hollywood.

According to her, during the third season of the show when she was pregnant, her home life was not good as she was dealing with an abusive relationship with a husband who did not have a job.
