Fresh Prince's Aunt Viv says Carlton's an a** wipe
A couple of days ago we were treated to a blast from the past when Alfonso Ribeiro aka Carlton Banks shared a photo of the Fresh Prince Of Bel Air cast back together again.
The Instagram snap featured Will Smith, Tatyana Ali (Ashley), Karyn Parsons (Hilary), Daphne Maxwell Reid (Aunt Viv II) and Joseph Marcell (beloved butler Geoffrey) on his Instagram page.
Alfonso also paid tribute to the late James Avery in the caption. James - who played patriarch Philip Banks, aka big Uncle Phil - passed away in 2014 following complications during heart surgery.
How sweet is that? Surely there’s no way of souring this lovely moment in which a bunch of old friends got together and had a smashing time?
Well, that’s where you’re wrong.
The original Aunt Viv, played by Janet Hubert, has taken to Facebook to call Alfonso an “ass wipe”, and point out that she has no interest in seeing any of her old co-stars.
The actress, who left the series after its third season amid reports that she and Will kept clashing on-set, wrote: “I know the media hoe Alphonso Ribero [spelt wrong on purpose to make a point? Probably] has posted his so called reunion photo.
“Folks keep telling me about it. He was always the ass wipe for Will. There will never be a true reunion of the Fresh Prince. I have no interest in seeing any of these people on that kind of level.”
Reassuring fans she was not offended “in the least” [YEAH RIGHT!?], OG Aunt Viv added: “It does however prompt me to take some meetings in Hollywood to pitch my memoir PERFECTION IS NOT A SITCOM MOM, and tell of the behind the scenes story before I leave this earth.”
I’m gonna be honest with you, Aunt Viv… I’m gonna need you to send me a copy of that the second you’ve finished writing it.
