More than a decade has passed since the show aired, and Winbush has continued to climb the ladder of success in her career. However, recent times have been tough for the actress as she was thrown into a state of mourning following the death of a loved one.

A few hours ago, Winbush took to her Instagram page to mourn a middle-aged woman, who she described as her "second mother." The actress posted pictures that captured lovely moments spent with the woman named Florie Anne.

Fans, followers, and celebrities were touched by Winbush's tribute and took to the comments section to offer their condolences. "The Bernie Mac Show" co-star DeeDee Davis also sympathized with Winbush.

Winbush might be receiving condolence messages, but earlier this year, she was subjected to backlash from netizens after sharing some surprising information. She announced that she would be sharing and selling content via a site called "Only Fans."

The site is often associated with pornographic content, but Winbush revealed in an Instagram post that she would be sharing content in her way— minimal nudity. She also mentioned that she would be dropping a skincare routine and remained unapologetic for her choice.
