The 30-year-old actress and singer posted a video of herself wearing a maroon robe and holding her nine-month-old son Leodis in her kitchen, while Nicki Minaj's Seeing Green played in the background.
She captioned the video: 'Alexa, Play Mary J: MY LIFE.'
She also wrote over the video: 'When reality tv makes everyone believe all celebrities lives are just one big marketing strategy and scheme by my life is truly unraveling at the seams and I just wear trauma like a Dolce & Gabbana coat because sharon didn’t raise no b****.'
The video has received over 258,000 likes and 6,000 comments, many of them from her fellow celebrities who showed their support and love for Palmer.
Teyana Taylor, who recently announced her divorce from Iman Shumpert, wrote: 'MY GURLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL, and add a good good purseeeee to make the garments pop cause you in ya bagggggggggg sis!!!'
SZA, who collaborated with Palmer on the song Pootie Tang, wrote: 'Exactly she’s an icon ❤️ and we praying and riding for you regardless!!'
Lili Reinhart, who co-starred with Palmer in Hustlers, wrote: 'And we love you so much ❤️.'
Palmer's video comes amid the ongoing drama with Jackson, who she accused of physically and emotionally abusing her during their relationship.
She filed for a restraining order against him in October, claiming that he had threatened to kill her, choked her, and hit her in front of their son.
She also alleged that he had cheated on her with multiple women, and shamed her on social media for what she was wearing at an Usher concert in Las Vegas.
Jackson has denied the allegations, and claimed that Palmer was the abusive one who had hit him and thrown things at him.
He also said that Palmer was trying to ruin his reputation and career as a rapper.
Palmer was granted a temporary restraining order against Jackson, and sole custody of their son, pending a hearing on December 5.
However, last week, Palmer asked the court to postpone the hearing, so that she and Jackson could try to resolve their custody issues privately.
She said that she wanted to avoid a public trial that would expose their son to more trauma and negativity.
She also said that she was willing to work with Jackson to co-parent their son, as long as he respected her boundaries and safety.
Palmer and Jackson started dating in 2020, after meeting on the set of the Netflix movie The After Party.
They welcomed their son Leodis in March 2023, and announced their split in August.
Palmer has not revealed who she is dating now, but she has been linked to Jordan Peele, the director of Nope, and Michael B. Jordan, her co-star in the movie.
Palmer is set to star in Nope, which is scheduled to be released on July 22, 2024.
The movie is described as a horror comedy that follows a group of friends who discover a terrifying secret when they travel to a rural town.
Palmer plays the lead role of Zara, a young woman who has a mysterious connection to the town.
She is also working on her fifth studio album, which is expected to be released in 2024.
She has released two singles from the album, Virgo Tendencies and Snack, which have both received positive reviews from fans and critics.
