DMX's wife Tashera Simmons has announced her official separation from the Yonkers rapper, along with a brand new reality series that will chronicle her family's life without him.

Simmons explained to AllHipHop.com that the new show, titled, 'Tashera Simmons: Life After X,' is intended to document her family's struggle dealing with DMX's ongoing drug and legal issues. She also attempted to straighten out the details surrounding her upcoming book, 'Tashera Simmons: Strength of A Woman,' by explaining that it is not solely intended to be a negative representation of DMX."It's not a tell-all, I want to clear that up," Simmons says. "It's a memoir, it's a story about our life, my life and our life together. My side of the story, because I feel like in his book, he didn't really get into detail to better explain it. I'm talking about everything, from my childhood when I was abandoned by my mother and left to take care of my siblings, to when me and Earl [DMX] first met at 11 and we got together at 18 and I'm starting from there until then on... It's a positive tell-all."

Simmons says that she's currently shopping her new TV show to several networks. Her family last appeared on the BET reality series 'DMX: Soul of a Man,' which was recorded in 2006. DMX was released from an Arizona jail on July 6, after serving two months of a six-month sentence stemming from a March parole violation for drug use.

Good Afternoon Everyone. I am a die hard DMX Fan, through his trials and tribulations. I am very disappointed at his behavior these past few years though. I saw him like a Big Brother from another Mother. I felt like his voice and attitude were so much mine sometimes, it's funny. I learned about his wife through a few of his lyrics, and it made me love her too, just because she was with him and bore his Children.(lol if I used the wrong spelling). I know,... hell, nobody knows the whole emotional run this Woman has had to endure, though I can say that, as a Strong Black Woman, don't turn your back on him. He needs you to SHAKE HIS ASS back on point! Come On. I don't know everyone's opinion on Marriage, but, I thought it was to be until death do us part. I wish you all the best with your plans. I am not a television person really, so I don't have views about the reality show. I just think, that with so much as a Family riding on this decision, it should be worked out! COMPLETELY! Help him fix his sh*t! He needs you and the Family to stay by him. I could relate to a good relationship to go sideways unexpectedly, but experience is the TEACHER. I Pray that he has learned from his mistakes..... or is learning. I bet he's stubborn as Heck, but I bet You are too! So, Girl, don't turn on him.... help his ass! I Pray your strength only builds and keeps you focused, so you can still maintain for the little ones while this tighteness is in the air. I mean it though, I can't tell you how anxious I've been to hear he's back! Unfortunately, it's only been unkool details..... I wish You and Your Family stay strong and pull through this. If I could ever get the chance to kick it with him, it would be confusing to some.... I think, I would be the excited Fan for a couple of minutes, then I would probably turn Philosopher on him! (switch roles) and ask him "What's his freakin problem?!" Don't let the DEVIL win Girl! You Take Care.
