Darnell ‘SuperChef’ Ferguson’s lawyer calls burglary, strangulation charges ‘misleading’ and ‘false’

Darnell “Superchef” Ferguson’s lawyer called his burglary and strangulation charges “misleading” and “false” after he allegedly threatened to kill his estranged wife, Tatahda Ferguson.

“Darnell and his wife are separated, and are working together to find a new balance for their family,” his lawyer, Krsna Tibbs, told Page Six Thursday.

“They had a disagreement on January 2 that was subsequently reported to the authorities in a misleading and false manner.”

His lawyer said that the Food Network star — who shares eight kids with his estranged wife — hopes “these issues will be resolved shortly and in a way that is least disruptive to their blended family of eight children.”

“We ask at this time for privacy for Darnell and the entire family so that they can heal and continue to work on coparenting as they move forward with their divorce.”

Page Six has reached out to Tatahda for comment but didn’t hear back at the time of publication.
