After seven years, Judge Mablean Ephriam will no longer be on the hit court TV show Divorce Court. Judge Ephriam says it all came down to hair and money. Ephriam says she was denied a raise despite the high ratings and success of the show. She was also told to wear a wig to help cut down on expenses for her hair. Officials were tired of paying to have her hair styled. They also fired her daughter, who was in charge of the wardrobe department, from the show. In regards to her hair, Ephraim says she found the issue to be
racially offensive. As an African-American woman, she needs to have her
hair styled by professionals who are skilled in black hair
