The Impact of Race on Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs' Divorce
Idina Menzel revealed that the interracial aspect of her marriage with ex-husband Taye Diggs was a significant factor in their 2013 split. Menzel explained that the racial challenges they faced, including disappointment from the Black community, had a greater impact on their relationship than their individual career successes. While their differences in race, ethnicity, and sexual orientation were accepted within the theater community, they became more pronounced outside of that bubble. Despite their split, Menzel emphasized that they continue to support each other.
