‘I Became More Forgiving Of Others Who Are Imperfect’-Gabrielle Union’s Heartfelt Message To Fans On ‘Being Mary Jane’

Gabrielle Union filed a lawsuit against BET and Breakdown Productions last year for violating the terms of her contract for the show Being Mary Jane.

The actress claims that she agreed to sign on for the BET drama with the understanding that the series wouldn’t shoot more than 13 episodes per season.

However, as the series premiered in 2013 finally comes to an end in 2018, she took to Instagram to share a message to her fans.

She wrote;

To Every Fan of Being Mary Jane,
We have all worked so tirelessly to bring you a show that we could be proud to be a part of. Mary Jane has become my favorite character. We’ve screwed up together, laughed together, evolved together, and raised hell together. I love all her imperfections, and through playing her I became more forgiving of others who are imperfect and on the journey of self discovery and improvement. We watched her struggle with relationships with both men and women, and we watched her finally start to get her shit together. But the journey isn’t over yet. We, as a Being Mary Jane family, cannot wait to bring you this final 2 hour series finale movie that will answer all your questions about each and every character. More than anything, however, we want to thank you with every fiber of our being for faithfully watching the show and supporting our work… from the actors, writers, producers, directors and enormous crew over the years, we are humbled and we remain grateful. Thank you!
