The star herself took it to Instagram to announce the fact that she’s not going. She shared:
” Supposed to be at Essence Fest in New Orleans but the powers that be at parole won’t let me be great (or make money?) sooo I’ve been counting down the days and handling a lot of personal stuff that usually gets pushed to the back burner. Anywho…anyone that KNOWS me knows that when I’m not working it’s no makeup/ regular clothes Rem. So I’m walking to the car coming from the dentist and my husband says “Babe, wait stop” and of course I’m maddd extra like “ Whattttttt babe?” and he says “Nothing, I just wanna take your picture. You look pretty”…?…DEFINITELY caught me off guard and that’s just ONE of the MANY reasons I love @papoosepapoose#BlackLove #MeetTheMackies#RegularRem #CountdownRem#UnRestrictedRemComingSoon#RemyMa ”

At least her husband is very supportive and there for her in these moments.
