Toya Bush Harris joins Lip Service for a candid, unfiltered conversation about marriage, motherhood, and life in the public eye. From celebrating her birthday with the hosts to opening up about her long-running marriage to Dr. Eugene Harris, Toya gets real about the highs, the challenges, and the misconceptions that come with being on reality TV.
She directly addresses viral cheating rumors that spread online, explaining how false stories about secret babies, DNA tests, and divorce filings impacted her family—and why she and Eugene initially laughed before the rumors crossed a line. Toya also responds to ongoing marriage criticism, sharing why she refuses to apologize for having a supportive husband and a partnership built on communication, trust, and growth.
Throughout the episode, Toya reflects on her upbringing, past relationships, celibacy before marriage, raising teenage sons, and how reality TV has functioned as an unexpected form of therapy in her relationship. She also discusses the pressure of public judgment, cast dynamics on Married to Medicine, and why being authentic—flaws and all—matters more than pleasing the internet.
This episode is funny, honest, and deeply personal—showing Toya beyond the headlines and reminding listeners that not everything they read online is true.

is where. This is where we're going.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
And you know, I'm we're supposed to get better and
better and really and truly, I mean, what is wrong
with having multiple homes.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You are the first person I saw with a two
story closet. I was like, you see what I'm saying,
And really it was out there they we it just
was not there for us.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
It's so interesting because you'll have a dream house and
then be like, actually I want another plate land and
we're actually going.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
To build another dream I tell people I'm like Barbie
in that sense.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Barbie had multiple dream houses. She did. Barbie had a mobile,
remember the mole she had? It was okay, she had
a cour vee.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
That's manifested Barbie toy. Butch Harris Barbie, I think that
can happen.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I will take that. I still had I Cynthia Bailey Barbie.
That's a fact from back in the day.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
It's got my debby Alan Barbie.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Is she a dancer?
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yes? And then what did you think you were going
to be when you were young?
Speaker 4 (03:12):
Oh? I was initially I was going to be a
computer aided drafter. That's what I wanted to go into.
What a computer aided drafter back in the day. That
was an architect. That was fancy, you did it on
your computer and all that.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Kind of good stuff.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
And then I went to school and I when I
got to college, somebody was like, you would.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Be a great teacher. You went to TSU.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
I did I want to TSU for about a year
and a half following my boyfriend at the time. You know,
it is what it is. I was working for six years,
so I give him his props. But then I came
to my own, went back home, started working for the
University of Phoenix, and I was like, well, maybe let
me just hurry up.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I'm gonna get this little business degree. You know, a
little business and I was always a sales person. So
and you're from Detroit, I am.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
We got a little Detroit connection.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
Yeah, you know New Yorkers in Detroit people we get along. Okay,
this is what we do.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Pustlers and both.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
We can't help it.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
We don't know nothing about I don't know why the
people think I'm just sitting over there living off my husband,
because that's impossible for it's impossible for a Detroit woman.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Okay, we're gonna we're gonna go get it. If anything,
I push him so much, did the people say he tired?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Okay, you got along commute, you got bury myself.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Okay, But let's be clear.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
I don't want my husband to come off as somebody
that's competing with me.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
But I think that I.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Did marry the type of man that's like I want
to do for her what she can do for herself,
and do it better and so I love him for that.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Hey, if you want to work.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Your ass off, go right ahead, okay, but look, when
I need you though, show up. It's interesting because I
remember on the episode when you asked your sons how
they felt about him, and they were like, we're fine.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
But that's not a good thing. And you know, it's funny.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
We were talking about that earlier today because I was like, honey,
you keep saying that in your green screens. Stop it,
because really and truly, it's not okay that they don't
see a difference between you being here and not being here. Okay,
they need you now, like I've raised them to be
great boys. But men, man, I don't I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I don't know if right?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah, no, you're right, and he is there and you
guys are married, but you want him to just be
more presents present.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Like tonight, he's at home with the boys, and I said, hey,
Avery has a final exam in the morning.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Just sit with him. Ask him a couple of questions.
Are you gonna cook dinner together? You know, have that
bonding male moment. And I understand it because I was
a daddy's girl. You know what I'm saying, and without
my father, oh god, I don't know what I would
have been. But I don't know if that's good or bad. Yeah,
you know what it's like I do. Yeah, you know,
(05:52):
he's you know, he's not ever a man I would
want to emuliate. Okay, not at all, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
But pay nothing over on us because you've seen it
all that part, that part, you see what I'm saying, Yes,
that part, and the toleration has to be and you know,
and listen, the kid.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
The boy's got to learn how to take out the garbage.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That is one thing in my house that is like
I'm past that garbage.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Well it's overflowing.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yeah, that part, like learn how to double bags washer okay,
because to use the dish washer.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
We didn't have a dish right, we had to wash
the dish girl. We didn't have a mop. Okay. My
mother was like, what do you need a mop for us?
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Called get us that part.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Okay, So does it bother you when people say that
because I've seen that, like, oh, he's got to work
so hard because she went to this house and she
wants to.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
The people just mad, you know, and I don't know
why because we as black women deserve all of that.
We deserve a man that's like I want to take
care of you. We deserve to have a man that
is intelligent and that is setting the way for our children.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
You know what I'm saying. He is a great example
to follow.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
And so why are you hating on this man for
wanting to spoil his wife?
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Right?
Speaker 4 (07:08):
You know what I'm saying. Let's be clear, I make
a lot of money and he knows it. You know
what I'm saying. I just told him the other day,
I said, you should be very happy. You don't have
to pay for any of this, you know what I'm saying,
But when I need you to, you can.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
And I appreciate that. How do you guys split the finances?
Because I think that's.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Always I talk about finances a lot when it comes
to like I have a wealth Wednesday segment on my
other show, and so finances, I think are a big
thing when we think about like getting married and like
this person makes this, I make this, but how you know?
And there's always that conversation.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
So let's be clear.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
That's the first time anyone that's ever asked me that question.
And so I can appreciate it. Thank you for giving
me the floor to tell.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Y'all all about it.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Okay, So how we started. I was when we first married,
a pharmaceutical rep. And I only paid for the electrical bill,
the cable bill, you know, the small bills.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Turn the bill was underhunted. That was my bill. Okay.
Now it's not like that. Okay.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
So I pay for my son's tuition, which is about
thirty thousand dollars per kid. I said, anything they have
to do, as far as their clothing. I pay for
all of our homes, any down payments for our homes,
any furniture.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yes, that's a lot. But he pays the mortgage.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Okay, that's I think I misspoken.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Said four hundred thousand on e TV, but it was
really six hundred thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
He corrected me later, He was like, no, no, what
you put down with six on?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
How did y'all come to that conversation and agreement when
I said.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
We're moving, he said, you're paying for it.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Initially, How did you'll like even when y'all were just starting,
when when you had built that house. We both loved
our first home that we built, but we didn't know
that it wasn't a custom bill. So we ended up
building a second home and Alfharetta Georgia shout out to Alpharetta.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
And we're over there. And it was great. But you know,
I just didn't feel like that was the end all
be all. And the housing market was booming, and when
I tell you, my neighbors were making millions of dollars
off old homes and I was.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Like, well, just think about how much we could make.
Ours is only two friends, right, and it was great.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
And so he was like, as long as you're doing it,
and it makes sense. And so I was like, well,
let me just find something closer to our boys' school
the bus, because at the time we were driving them
for the bus. Yeah, it was about a thirty minute
commute in the morning, thirty minute home.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
And I was just and that was to the bus
and then I have to get to school right right
to go to school. And y'all get that life is.
That's how New York.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, yeah, we know how that commute When I used
to do mornings and be at work at like five am.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
It now it's an hour exactly. It's a in Atlanta's traffic.
If you have not been it is not pretty, so
you always are.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
I don't know if anything compares to New York traffic,
though sometimes I'd be like, let me just get on
the train.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Atlanta's highway traffic is it's worse than.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
LS because sometimes in New York you'll be stuck on
one block for like twenty minutes on one block on one.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Atlanta traffic you might be stuck in the.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Especially from not even you're stuck from like three thirty seven.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
It's not again, Atlanta doesn't have rush hour. It's just
all everything. It's all day, every day. Yes, it could be.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
It could be Saturday night after the club and it's
traffic because they have construction on the highway, especially now
that FIFA's coming there the World Cup and everything. They're
fixing everything up. Look, it's construction and ship everywhere. Than
right now they're really cleaning it.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Up though, and they're about to make some money again. Yeah, listen,
you also launch your own wine.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yes, I say the club, it was great with Jackson.
They are amazing.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
But you know I'm doing some other things too. No,
you know, I actually have been working with some builders.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
On yes, because everybody's like.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
Existence, I've working with some buildings just on some design aspects.
And so that's been very helpful and fun to do
because I actually will do it.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I experience and I love it, and I will do
it for free.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
And it's the difference between what I'm doing and me
coming in and just spending my own money is different
when it's someone else's.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
And you can well or job.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Okay, So we're doing that kind of thing, you know,
and hopefully you know I'm speaking in into existence. You know,
I've been on the show for twelve years.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
It's time for me to start getting my own show together.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I want to say, So, how do you feel like
because we saw the last episode where the women were
getting all of your business?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Okay? Are they always?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Are they always? Where do you think all this criticism
stems from when it comes to your marriage my castmates?
Speaker 4 (11:57):
My castmates are hard workers. They love to work. It's
a part of their DNA, and I think they were
raised to work instead of pamper. And when they see
a woman like myself, they want to put the pamper
princess and it's like they really didn't see me when
I was working. To be honest with you, when I
(12:19):
moved to Atlanta, I was probably working for maybe a
year for Procter and Gamble before that.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
They didn't see my hustle. You know.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
I hustled in Detroit like crazy, like I've worked for Novartis, Pfizer.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I did that, you know that life.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
But when I got married, I was like this, this
is not what I saw. Yeah, you know, I want
a man that can provide and you know, when you
need my help, I'm there though. You know I got it,
you know, but it is what it is. I think
they're tired, you know.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
I want to ask you about this because I saw
this and it made me think about like this post
that was done about how like these blogs will spread
fake rumors and boss things.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
So I know you've seen you another man, another want to.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
He like a lot, another baby a side baby.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
For divoy honey. But I only said on some random
ass like randomness. I'm like that ain't trual. No, so
that usually went viral.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
When I tell you, my family was calling me sending
me this like hey, are you okay?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Do we need to come down? I was like, no,
I'm okay, We're good. I don't even know what that says,
you know, And to be honest, me and Eugene.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
When we first saw it, we laughed about it, but
he's offended now, Like he was like, why can't I
just be a good dude?
Speaker 1 (13:41):
He was like, why do I have to when I'm working,
be somewhere else and have a whole nother family. It
was this lady. I got my hand around, you know.
He was like, what is all of it? You know?
He's like, is she real?
Speaker 4 (13:51):
I'm like, I don't know. You tell me so now
it's the one joke in our house. I'm like, Oh,
you're going to see other woman. Oh you're working on Christmas?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Oh I see, because then the season starts and then
we see he was gone. He got a five hour community.
He's in the er. And you know they always say
doctors number one as far as like occupations where men
she and women too?
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I didn't know that, but we did have We had
a mutual friend. It was so funny.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Me and Eugenie got in one of our first arguments
because it was a friend of his and they were
so tight, and he was like, when I told her about.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
What we were going through, I said, when you told
who what? Hope?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Who is she?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Who is this her? What are you talking about? You
know what I'm saying. And he was like, uh, I mean,
she's just a fellow coworker, but you know her. She cool.
You don't know, we don't do that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Come to find out maybe two years later she was
divorced cheating with another doctor. Yes, And I said, see
what I'm telling you. See what I'm telling you that
part okay. I told him I roll up up.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Don't have me roll up in the er, okay, because
I will mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
I want to ask you about now. Earlier you just
talked about a like previous relationship. You had a six
year relationship, so you've always been like a relationship.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
I've always been in a relationship. Why give made that?
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Because you know what, that was a big deal for me.
I got into my first relationship in eighth grade.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
My son is in eighth grade and I'm a different nowadays.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Yes, girl, he done have multiples. I don't know what
he doing. He needs to settle down. But that's another topic.
But in eighth grade, I got into my first relationship.
I stayed in that relationship until I went to my
first year a college in Tennessee State, and so we
were together for six years. I was called the hussy
by his mama, all that and not. She loved it
to this day, loves me to this day.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
She watched the show like before. But then I got
another relationship for four years and I've always been in
a relationship, and then one day I just was like,
I'm done. The biggest relationship I had was with God
and I was with him for three years, no sex,
no drinking, and it was amazing.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
Wow. Yes, changed my life, changed my perspective on what
I needed. I'll never forget my friend telling me she
was like, write down everything you want a man, and
don't be superficial. She was like, I mean, write down
what you need, not what you want. And I was like, well,
I need a man with money. Well she was like yeah,
but what do you need? She's like, I need somebody
(16:17):
I can trust Number one because I have trust issues.
So I put that on there, and I'm telling you
the things that came from that list.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
God said, I got that, I got you. Where do
your trust is? Shoes come from? My father? Yeah, my
father he was a.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Jiggl you know, he would blame everybody else, but you
know he still is to this day.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
My father would sit here and flirt with you.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
He would ask for your number, he would walk you
to your car, he would do all those things.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Okay, he would buy you a dream. He's gonna dance
with you all night. That is my father. So when
is long coach? Wait?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
So what was his relationship with your mom when you
were growing up?
Speaker 1 (16:59):
He's still in love. We need we need a Christmas movie.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
I'm trying to tell you, because they still argue like
they were married and they've both been remarried and divorced,
and he's not cheating on her too. And at the
end of the day, I think first love. My mother
and my father were talking. They were they were going
through the windows.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Remember back in the day.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Yeah, you're sneaking through somebody's windows. Was hiding in the closet.
He got caught in the climate.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
The scariest thing in the world, I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah, scariest thing in the world.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
I'm trying to tell you. But they were sweethearts for
a long time. You know. Were you angry at your
father for cheating on your mood and the world is
angry at their daddy.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Wondering I'm just wondering because you know, sometimes when you're young,
it also depends on how your mother frames it too, because.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
She she she was not that mom.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Okay, she you know, the worst thing she would do
is I'll never forget. She set that child sport checkout
and it was like eighty dollars and I was like,
what eighty dollars? Even back then, I went bad nothing,
you know, but that's what it was.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
And she never told me about the stuff.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Do you know how I found out about stuff through
my cousins. They was like, girl, your mama never told you.
She rolled up on the people at work. What your godmother? You?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
That's why you don't have one. I'm like, wait, what
happened here? You know?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
And you just you found out about it later because
I was older, I was more mature.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
I can handle it, you know. But as a child,
my father was my everything. Honey.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
He took me to McDonald's, he got me candy. It
was phenomenal when you found out. Oh you know, I
wish I could have been more empathetic till my mama,
my mother back then, because I just felt like she,
(18:44):
you know, we weren't together anymore as a family, and
so I was like, what's happening here?
Speaker 1 (18:50):
You know, he's a good guy. That's my dad, you know,
never really understanding and she was protecting you and she
was yeah, and she did a great job.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
We had at single parent household for a long time,
but she did that.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
You know, she made sure she didn't.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Just date everybody. I've never seen my mother bring random
men through my.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
House, not at all. I remember one guy, Kenny, you know,
to this day, Kenny was great. She can't opened my door,
you know. He was a great guy and still to
this day's a good guy.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
How do you think being on reality TV has affected
your marriage or has it?
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Who? Reality TV, like my husband likes to say, is
our therapy.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
You know, we we we made We were not perfect.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
We have never portrayed ourselves as perfect.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
We do things that we're not proud of, and we
hate sometimes that we do it on TV. Like this
next episode, Yes, prep myself, Prep.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Myself, honey. I watched a clip and I was like,
did I say that that? How many times? When I
call these females bitches? I was like, what is going on?
Like I didn't know that I was. I was so.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Angry at that moment, and then he it was so
angry and we just said some things that we were like, God,
we can't take it back, you know, but it's a
learning experience for us. You know, it's at a place
where if the foundation is there, you're good because we
can go back and say, now you know where you
went wrong.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
I don't know even if you don't pray on it.
You know what I'm saying. I'm gonna fix me, you
fix you.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
But really and truly, if our foundation stays the way
it is, nothing can break us. You know what I'm saying. God,
he got it, girl, because they'd be trying, y'all.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
They do.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Halloween cost girl, Girl, girl, What do you think in general?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
And you know she wants me to borrow it because
she might be moving herself. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
What do you think about the portrayal of black people
on reality TV?
Speaker 4 (20:55):
I think that reality TV is what people think it's.
It's a modern day version of hustling on the street.
To me, you make that kind of money, you know,
And I think people don't realize how hard it actually
is until they're in it.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
So everybody wants to do it right.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
And whether you're black or white, it doesn't matter because
at some point they're gonna see your worst side and
they're gonna see your best side, you know, and the
public is it gonna like you or they're gonna hate you.
I think that's the hardest part about reality TV. It
has nothing to do with color.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
And the darling and you had a great season, you know.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
And and actually one of the things that we're dealing
with one of our castmates because we're like, wait a minute,
you just yelled at me through the whole filming process,
and then as soon as you saw that the people
has something to say about it, now you want to apologize. Oh,
your apology is not genuine because when you said it,
(21:58):
you meant it. Butthology right based on how the people
perceive you. And we're not for that life.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
So Eugene says, it's like therapy.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
I think it is scary sometimes because you know, twelve
year vet, you start feeling like you should know better.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
You know, they get you every time, you know, or
you just gosh.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
You know, it's that fine line because you want to
be authentic, you know, and our show is known for
being authentic.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
But then it's like, hey, pull back a little bit.
You know. My sons are teenagers now, they're watching everything
so different. They we watched them grow.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Maybe my son's I just got the Instagram him saying
he wanted to open his account public, and he's like, Mom,
but you can, you can be the you know, the
manager over my account.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
And I'm like, can you just not?
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Can we just go back like I'm account I don't
even I'm just starting to really blocks now. Earlier before
the show, we were talking about cruises and like I
would say, my family's going on the whole cruise for
the holiday.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
So which cruise line? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Every year they try to get me to come and
I never go.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Okay go. So if it's Carnival, don't go.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
There might be Norwegian?
Speaker 4 (23:11):
I think, okay, we want tool for like the singles
and you know the age group.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I don't know my not my age group girl, age
group girls.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Mom with you, I'm right here with you, Yes, Sam,
I was.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
I was a freshman when y'all wasn't seeing behind.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Jordan wasn't.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
So talk to me about these cruises. Why, he says, so.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
You know why we liked it.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
I took my mom and my sister and my nephew,
and honestly, everybody had something to do. There was no
entertaining anybody. My husband, he was like, hey, let's go
to the couple's game show. There was all kinds.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Of it was so much, so much. I'm telling you,
it was so much fun. You would think it was corny.
We were. We had a good time.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
The only thing I will say is that if you
got thirty thousand people, please don't expect gourmet food. Okay,
you're doing nothing and wings and fries, yes, and you
might have a seafood night, and you're gonna have those
left over seafood your breakfast.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Places to right.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
So we dopped in the Bahamas.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
And what I've learned somebody told me a long time
ago we went on our Disney cruise. There's like when
you doc have the hotel that you like, come pick
you up and spend the day at the hotel and
then they bring you back.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
So that's what we did. We spent the day at Bahama.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I know.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Bahamas. I was just there. Yeah, it's still it.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
I lost all my money the casino, but I do
not handle overseas.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
You want some money. The Bahamas was the first time
I remember I went to the Bahamas and I won
twenty four hundred dollars in three minutes and that was it.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I cash out. Yes tomorrow Atlantis.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
It was at the Lant Yeah yeah, yeah, machine, Yeah Tony.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
But I love her.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Any she took I was like, this one looks friendly.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
They trying to get you to come back.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
Then?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
How long have you been married? Sixteen years going on
seventeen in July? So what's the secret?
Speaker 2 (25:39):
You know? People always ask that, but y'all seem like
you really and maybe it is. I don't know. I've
heard people say maybe it is nice to be like
I miss you, you've been gone for five days.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
No.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
First of all, immediately, I think as women, Edmund, we
do deserve our own space sometimes. You know, it is
nothing like being a will to just sit back and
stretch out over your bed. You know, after seventeen years
of sharing a bed, imagine whether it's like when you
don't for that right one, two or three nights?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Right? So it's great.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
But I think our secret to success has been what
people say, it's probably a hindrance. They're like, she talks
too much, But no, baby, that has been our secret
to success. You need to know what I need, telling
me what he needs, and us coming to a happy medium. Okay,
because when you sit back and you just allow things
(26:29):
to just happen and you don't really say, baby that
hurt me, or baby, I need us to do better,
or baby, have you ever thought about this?
Speaker 1 (26:37):
You know what I'm saying? Do you see the vision?
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Like we really have those type of conversations. And I
told them, I said, I don't want to be that
old couple that's not enjoying each other. Right, you know
what I'm saying. I want to be that old couple
on the cruise or on the vacation and we playing
cards together like.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Love and we just walked me at the comedy show laughing. Yes,
you know what I'm say.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
I who was like that with her husband? And I said,
y'all laugh too much, y'all get on my nerves, like
they can't stop laughing. And I was like, what is
the what's your secret? And it has nothing to do
with his finances because he makes loves tor you know
what I'm saying. She's like, but he undergirds me. She's like,
when I'm in the bathtub, he comes in massige my shoulders.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
And you can't put that price on that. Baby.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Now, what about in the bedroom? I don't know what
they're do in the bedroom.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
I said, that's the secret to the secret for me
is uh changing it up. You know what I'm saying, Like,
I don't want us to get complacent. You know, when
we first started out.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
I remember we were in Bora, Bora on our honeymoon
and I was like, baby, we are in an overwater bungalow.
Let's do this ship. You know what I'm saying. You
know what I'm meaning by that, right.
Speaker 4 (27:53):
I was like, let's let's just look all okay, we
literally are.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Looking at the bungalow next to us and they out
there naked from New York.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
From New York, okay, if you remember, because we all
had the same anniversary. Literally, Eugene was like, no, he
would not.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
So it wasn't until two years ago. He was like,
let's tell, let's what you want to do. I said,
you get naked?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Okay, okay, So as long as you're at some point
willing to change things up in the bedroom, he ain't
gonna share.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Okay, he's not gonna share.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
So I feel like getting naked outside is a secret.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Yes, weight be I will tear a balcony up, will
scream for the people just I want I want them
to look up, okay from out the room and check
out that was like I was in three on one.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Now, you talked about the celibacy and everything beforehand. Why
do you think that that was a bonus in order
or something that laid down the groundwork, you.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
Know, because like I said, I was in a relationship
so much that I didn't know what it was like
to date. So once I got my heart broke, after
that four year relationship, I was dating, honey, I was
out there in those streets.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
And how did you get your heart broke? What happened?
He's a cheater, that's why you had trust.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
And I was in love, you know what I'm saying.
It really was, and he got somebody else pregnant. She
good people, though, girl, good people.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
You know, she wasn't good people then, but she good people.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
I'm going to find that level of people and forgiveness,
you know, And really and truly it's not our fault.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Men out there telling all kinds of lives, and so
I think for me, I needed God to slow me
down because I was dating all the people, the quarterbacks
and what you want to tell me it was I
was having.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Maybe I had a whole book.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
It was gonna be because master mastering my singleness, mastering
your singleness.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
It was amazing.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Okay, and I don't look back. I had a great
time and you had to. I did, like, I think
that's important before you done, yes.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
And you know what it did.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
It gave me a different perspective on what I needed,
you know what I'm saying, Like, I didn't just need
a guy that was gonna.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Hit it right because that was easy. That was the
easy part.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
I needed a guy that was patient, you know what
I'm saying Like that was the second thing on my
list of trust patience because I knew me I'm a lot,
you know I'm saying I am and should be. And
Eugene he wanted a lot and he was like, but
I'm patient. I can handle her, you know what I'm saying.
I got this and it was like, okay, so what's next?
And I was like, Oh, I just need them to
(31:04):
be a family man, you know.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
And that's what he is. So he's all those things.
And I'm telling you.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
But those are the things that you look for after
you've had the experience where you've dated the guys, and
it's just been for fun, you know what I'm saying.
Because I went through that phase where I was like,
people were like, well how many you date at the time.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
It doesn't matter through that.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Everybody fulfills something different for me, you know what I'm saying.
Somebody might have been the guy that I was having
sex with at the time, but the other guy was
the guy that I had a conversation with. The other
guy was the guy that I traveled with. The other
guy was the guy theater.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
It's gonna be. She had a roster.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
And I'm not that.
Speaker 4 (31:51):
Way back I had way back when seventeen eighteen, nineteen.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Years How do you like the new cast members? First
of all, and everybody's like, why are you shouting this girl?
Because we needed her. We needed somebody that brought that
that that that just regular.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
She's a regular girl, and she's a boss, you know
what I'm saying. And she's a mom and she's a
good mom. And her kids when they see you, they
don't even know you. That's so sweet, but that's a testament. Okay.
And her husband, he loves her like they literally just
posted and they were talking about how they met in
(32:34):
high school, you know, and they went back to their
old high school to show the kids where they met.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Can you imagine, you know what I'm saying that that?
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Okay, we ain't breaking that, you know, not these other
people one of them. Now, I ain't gonna look it
ain't me. I didn't produce the show. I'm not an editor.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
All I can say is that Booty has did way
more talking than her. Okay, and y'all know, and I
ain't saying no that, okay, all right, So that part
and then the other one. She likes to think I
don't like her, but really I don't know her like that. Okay, Okay,
that's what Samone said. She said to you, just say you.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Don't know her. I don't know her.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
Okay, Okay, all right, that's been I don't know her. Yeah,
there's room for growth.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
How do you feel back back to Heavenly being a
friend of the show right now as she's running for office.
I've seen some thoughts.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
This season is a very special season.
Speaker 4 (33:27):
I want y'all to really tune in because who that
friend of the show when they came back to bite her,
You know, when you try to make other people friends
of the show.
Speaker 1 (33:35):

Speaker 4 (33:38):
Because okay, unless you're really ready to come.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
You don't think it's gonna worrky.
Speaker 4 (34:01):
I look, I wish her the best, but I am
not that person who's about to sit here and be
like she black girl girl power. No, I don't care
what color you are. I don't know what you're doing.
Just be educated when you do it. You know what
I'm saying.

It's very rare. I don't want to stop. Okay, this
is where. This is where we're going.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
And you know, I'm we're supposed to get better and
better and really and truly, I mean, what is wrong
with having multiple homes.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
You are the first person I saw with a two
story closet. I was like, you see what I'm saying,
And really it was out there they we it just
was not there for us.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
You know.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
It's so interesting because you'll have a dream house and
then be like, actually I want another plate land and
we're actually going.
Speaker 4 (02:38):
To build another dream I tell people I'm like Barbie
in that sense.
Speaker 1 (02:43):
Barbie had multiple dream houses. She did. Barbie had a mobile,
remember the mole she had? It was okay, she had
a cour vee.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
That's manifested Barbie toy. Butch Harris Barbie, I think that
can happen.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
I will take that. I still had I Cynthia Bailey Barbie.
That's a fact from back in the day.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
It's got my debby Alan Barbie.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Is she a dancer?
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Yes? And then what did you think you were going
to be when you were young?
Speaker 4 (03:12):
Oh? I was initially I was going to be a
computer aided drafter. That's what I wanted to go into.
What a computer aided drafter back in the day. That
was an architect. That was fancy, you did it on
your computer and all that.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Kind of good stuff.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
And then I went to school and I when I
got to college, somebody was like, you would.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Be a great teacher. You went to TSU.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
I did I want to TSU for about a year
and a half following my boyfriend at the time. You know,
it is what it is. I was working for six years,
so I give him his props. But then I came
to my own, went back home, started working for the
University of Phoenix, and I was like, well, maybe let
me just hurry up.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I'm gonna get this little business degree. You know, a
little business and I was always a sales person. So
and you're from Detroit, I am.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
You know.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
We got a little Detroit connection.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
Yeah, you know New Yorkers in Detroit people we get along. Okay,
this is what we do.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Pustlers and both.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
We can't help it.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
We don't know nothing about I don't know why the
people think I'm just sitting over there living off my husband,
because that's impossible for it's impossible for a Detroit woman.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Okay, we're gonna we're gonna go get it. If anything,
I push him so much, did the people say he tired?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Okay, you got along commute, you got bury myself.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
Okay, But let's be clear.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
I don't want my husband to come off as somebody
that's competing with me.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
But I think that I.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
Did marry the type of man that's like I want
to do for her what she can do for herself,
and do it better and so I love him for that.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Hey, if you want to work.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
Your ass off, go right ahead, okay, but look, when
I need you though, show up. It's interesting because I
remember on the episode when you asked your sons how
they felt about him, and they were like, we're fine.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
But that's not a good thing. And you know, it's funny.
Speaker 4 (04:53):
We were talking about that earlier today because I was like, honey,
you keep saying that in your green screens. Stop it,
because really and truly, it's not okay that they don't
see a difference between you being here and not being here. Okay,
they need you now, like I've raised them to be
great boys. But men, man, I don't I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I don't know if right?
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Yeah, no, you're right, and he is there and you
guys are married, but you want him to just be
more presents present.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Like tonight, he's at home with the boys, and I said, hey,
Avery has a final exam in the morning.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Just sit with him. Ask him a couple of questions.
Are you gonna cook dinner together? You know, have that
bonding male moment. And I understand it because I was
a daddy's girl. You know what I'm saying, and without
my father, oh god, I don't know what I would
have been. But I don't know if that's good or bad. Yeah,
you know what it's like I do. Yeah, you know,
(05:52):
he's you know, he's not ever a man I would
want to emuliate. Okay, not at all, you know what
I mean.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
But pay nothing over on us because you've seen it
all that part, that part, you see what I'm saying, Yes,
that part, and the toleration has to be and you know,
and listen, the kid.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
The boy's got to learn how to take out the garbage.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That is one thing in my house that is like
I'm past that garbage.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Well it's overflowing.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yeah, that part, like learn how to double bags washer okay,
because to use the dish washer.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
We didn't have a dish right, we had to wash
the dish girl. We didn't have a mop. Okay. My
mother was like, what do you need a mop for us?
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Called get us that part.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Okay, So does it bother you when people say that
because I've seen that, like, oh, he's got to work
so hard because she went to this house and she
wants to.
Speaker 4 (06:43):
The people just mad, you know, and I don't know
why because we as black women deserve all of that.
We deserve a man that's like I want to take
care of you. We deserve to have a man that
is intelligent and that is setting the way for our children.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
You know what I'm saying. He is a great example
to follow.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
And so why are you hating on this man for
wanting to spoil his wife?
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Right?
Speaker 4 (07:08):
You know what I'm saying. Let's be clear, I make
a lot of money and he knows it. You know
what I'm saying. I just told him the other day,
I said, you should be very happy. You don't have
to pay for any of this, you know what I'm saying,
But when I need you to, you can.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
And I appreciate that. How do you guys split the finances?
Because I think that's.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Always I talk about finances a lot when it comes
to like I have a wealth Wednesday segment on my
other show, and so finances, I think are a big
thing when we think about like getting married and like
this person makes this, I make this, but how you know?
And there's always that conversation.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
So let's be clear.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
That's the first time anyone that's ever asked me that question.
And so I can appreciate it. Thank you for giving
me the floor to tell.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
Y'all all about it.
Speaker 4 (07:49):
Okay, So how we started. I was when we first married,
a pharmaceutical rep. And I only paid for the electrical bill,
the cable bill, you know, the small bills.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Turn the bill was underhunted. That was my bill. Okay.
Now it's not like that. Okay.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
So I pay for my son's tuition, which is about
thirty thousand dollars per kid. I said, anything they have
to do, as far as their clothing. I pay for
all of our homes, any down payments for our homes,
any furniture.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yes, that's a lot. But he pays the mortgage.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Okay, that's I think I misspoken.
Speaker 4 (08:30):
Said four hundred thousand on e TV, but it was
really six hundred thousand.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
He corrected me later, He was like, no, no, what
you put down with six on?
Speaker 2 (08:38):
How did y'all come to that conversation and agreement when
I said.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
We're moving, he said, you're paying for it.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (08:47):
Initially, How did you'll like even when y'all were just starting,
when when you had built that house. We both loved
our first home that we built, but we didn't know
that it wasn't a custom bill. So we ended up
building a second home and Alfharetta Georgia shout out to Alpharetta.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
And we're over there. And it was great. But you know,
I just didn't feel like that was the end all
be all. And the housing market was booming, and when
I tell you, my neighbors were making millions of dollars
off old homes and I was.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
Like, well, just think about how much we could make.
Ours is only two friends, right, and it was great.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
And so he was like, as long as you're doing it,
and it makes sense. And so I was like, well,
let me just find something closer to our boys' school
the bus, because at the time we were driving them
for the bus. Yeah, it was about a thirty minute
commute in the morning, thirty minute home.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
And I was just and that was to the bus
and then I have to get to school right right
to go to school. And y'all get that life is.
That's how New York.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah, yeah, we know how that commute When I used
to do mornings and be at work at like five am.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
It now it's an hour exactly. It's a in Atlanta's traffic.
If you have not been it is not pretty, so
you always are.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
I don't know if anything compares to New York traffic,
though sometimes I'd be like, let me just get on
the train.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Atlanta's highway traffic is it's worse than.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
LS because sometimes in New York you'll be stuck on
one block for like twenty minutes on one block on one.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Atlanta traffic you might be stuck in the.
Speaker 4 (10:16):
Especially from not even you're stuck from like three thirty seven.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
It's not again, Atlanta doesn't have rush hour. It's just
all everything. It's all day, every day. Yes, it could be.
Speaker 4 (10:29):
It could be Saturday night after the club and it's
traffic because they have construction on the highway, especially now
that FIFA's coming there the World Cup and everything. They're
fixing everything up. Look, it's construction and ship everywhere. Than
right now they're really cleaning it.
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Up though, and they're about to make some money again. Yeah, listen,
you also launch your own wine.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Yes, I say the club, it was great with Jackson.
They are amazing.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
But you know I'm doing some other things too. No,
you know, I actually have been working with some builders.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
On yes, because everybody's like.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
Existence, I've working with some buildings just on some design aspects.
And so that's been very helpful and fun to do
because I actually will do it.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I experience and I love it, and I will do
it for free.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
And it's the difference between what I'm doing and me
coming in and just spending my own money is different
when it's someone else's.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
And you can well or job.
Speaker 4 (11:27):
Okay, So we're doing that kind of thing, you know,
and hopefully you know I'm speaking in into existence. You know,
I've been on the show for twelve years.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
It's time for me to start getting my own show together.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I want to say, So, how do you feel like
because we saw the last episode where the women were
getting all of your business?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Okay? Are they always?
Speaker 2 (11:47):
Are they always? Where do you think all this criticism
stems from when it comes to your marriage my castmates?
Speaker 4 (11:57):
My castmates are hard workers. They love to work. It's
a part of their DNA, and I think they were
raised to work instead of pamper. And when they see
a woman like myself, they want to put the pamper
princess and it's like they really didn't see me when
I was working. To be honest with you, when I
(12:19):
moved to Atlanta, I was probably working for maybe a
year for Procter and Gamble before that.
Speaker 1 (12:24):
They didn't see my hustle. You know.
Speaker 4 (12:25):
I hustled in Detroit like crazy, like I've worked for Novartis, Pfizer.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
I did that, you know that life.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
But when I got married, I was like this, this
is not what I saw. Yeah, you know, I want
a man that can provide and you know, when you
need my help, I'm there though. You know I got it,
you know, but it is what it is. I think
they're tired, you know.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
I want to ask you about this because I saw
this and it made me think about like this post
that was done about how like these blogs will spread
fake rumors and boss things.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
So I know you've seen you another man, another want to.
Speaker 4 (13:05):
He like a lot, another baby a side baby.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
For divoy honey. But I only said on some random
ass like randomness. I'm like that ain't trual. No, so
that usually went viral.
Speaker 4 (13:23):
When I tell you, my family was calling me sending
me this like hey, are you okay?
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Do we need to come down? I was like, no,
I'm okay, We're good. I don't even know what that says,
you know, And to be honest, me and Eugene.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
When we first saw it, we laughed about it, but
he's offended now, Like he was like, why can't I
just be a good dude?
Speaker 1 (13:41):
He was like, why do I have to when I'm working,
be somewhere else and have a whole nother family. It
was this lady. I got my hand around, you know.
He was like, what is all of it? You know?
He's like, is she real?
Speaker 4 (13:51):
I'm like, I don't know. You tell me so now
it's the one joke in our house. I'm like, Oh,
you're going to see other woman. Oh you're working on Christmas?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Oh I see, because then the season starts and then
we see he was gone. He got a five hour community.
He's in the er. And you know they always say
doctors number one as far as like occupations where men
she and women too?
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I didn't know that, but we did have We had
a mutual friend. It was so funny.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
Me and Eugenie got in one of our first arguments
because it was a friend of his and they were
so tight, and he was like, when I told her about.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
What we were going through, I said, when you told
who what? Hope?
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Who is she?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
Who is this her? What are you talking about? You
know what I'm saying. And he was like, uh, I mean,
she's just a fellow coworker, but you know her. She cool.
You don't know, we don't do that. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Come to find out maybe two years later she was
divorced cheating with another doctor. Yes, And I said, see
what I'm telling you. See what I'm telling you that
part okay. I told him I roll up up.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Don't have me roll up in the er, okay, because
I will mm hmm.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
I want to ask you about now. Earlier you just
talked about a like previous relationship. You had a six
year relationship, so you've always been like a relationship.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
I've always been in a relationship. Why give made that?
Speaker 4 (15:09):
Because you know what, that was a big deal for me.
I got into my first relationship in eighth grade.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
My son is in eighth grade and I'm a different nowadays.
Speaker 4 (15:20):
Yes, girl, he done have multiples. I don't know what
he doing. He needs to settle down. But that's another topic.
But in eighth grade, I got into my first relationship.
I stayed in that relationship until I went to my
first year a college in Tennessee State, and so we
were together for six years. I was called the hussy
by his mama, all that and not. She loved it
to this day, loves me to this day.
Speaker 1 (15:39):
She watched the show like before. But then I got
another relationship for four years and I've always been in
a relationship, and then one day I just was like,
I'm done. The biggest relationship I had was with God
and I was with him for three years, no sex,
no drinking, and it was amazing.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
Wow. Yes, changed my life, changed my perspective on what
I needed. I'll never forget my friend telling me she
was like, write down everything you want a man, and
don't be superficial. She was like, I mean, write down
what you need, not what you want. And I was like, well,
I need a man with money. Well she was like yeah,
but what do you need? She's like, I need somebody
(16:17):
I can trust Number one because I have trust issues.
So I put that on there, and I'm telling you
the things that came from that list.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
God said, I got that, I got you. Where do
your trust is? Shoes come from? My father? Yeah, my
father he was a.
Speaker 4 (16:34):
Jiggl you know, he would blame everybody else, but you
know he still is to this day.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
My father would sit here and flirt with you.
Speaker 4 (16:43):
He would ask for your number, he would walk you
to your car, he would do all those things.
Speaker 1 (16:47):
Okay, he would buy you a dream. He's gonna dance
with you all night. That is my father. So when
is long coach? Wait?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
So what was his relationship with your mom when you
were growing up?
Speaker 1 (16:59):
He's still in love. We need we need a Christmas movie.
Speaker 4 (17:01):
I'm trying to tell you, because they still argue like
they were married and they've both been remarried and divorced,
and he's not cheating on her too. And at the
end of the day, I think first love. My mother
and my father were talking. They were they were going
through the windows.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Remember back in the day.
Speaker 4 (17:18):
Yeah, you're sneaking through somebody's windows. Was hiding in the closet.
He got caught in the climate.
Speaker 1 (17:25):
The scariest thing in the world, I'm sure.
Speaker 2 (17:26):
Yeah, scariest thing in the world.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
I'm trying to tell you. But they were sweethearts for
a long time. You know. Were you angry at your
father for cheating on your mood and the world is
angry at their daddy.
Speaker 2 (17:40):
Wondering I'm just wondering because you know, sometimes when you're young,
it also depends on how your mother frames it too, because.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
She she she was not that mom.
Speaker 4 (17:47):
Okay, she you know, the worst thing she would do
is I'll never forget. She set that child sport checkout
and it was like eighty dollars and I was like,
what eighty dollars? Even back then, I went bad nothing,
you know, but that's what it was.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
And she never told me about the stuff.
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Do you know how I found out about stuff through
my cousins. They was like, girl, your mama never told you.
She rolled up on the people at work. What your godmother? You?
Speaker 1 (18:12):
That's why you don't have one. I'm like, wait, what
happened here? You know?
Speaker 4 (18:16):
And you just you found out about it later because
I was older, I was more mature.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
I can handle it, you know. But as a child,
my father was my everything. Honey.
Speaker 4 (18:23):
He took me to McDonald's, he got me candy. It
was phenomenal when you found out. Oh you know, I
wish I could have been more empathetic till my mama,
my mother back then, because I just felt like she,
(18:44):
you know, we weren't together anymore as a family, and
so I was like, what's happening here?
Speaker 1 (18:50):
You know, he's a good guy. That's my dad, you know,
never really understanding and she was protecting you and she
was yeah, and she did a great job.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
We had at single parent household for a long time,
but she did that.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
You know, she made sure she didn't.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
Just date everybody. I've never seen my mother bring random
men through my.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
House, not at all. I remember one guy, Kenny, you know,
to this day, Kenny was great. She can't opened my door,
you know. He was a great guy and still to
this day's a good guy.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
How do you think being on reality TV has affected
your marriage or has it?
Speaker 1 (19:24):
Who? Reality TV, like my husband likes to say, is
our therapy.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
You know, we we we made We were not perfect.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
We have never portrayed ourselves as perfect.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
We do things that we're not proud of, and we
hate sometimes that we do it on TV. Like this
next episode, Yes, prep myself, Prep.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
Myself, honey. I watched a clip and I was like,
did I say that that? How many times? When I
call these females bitches? I was like, what is going on?
Like I didn't know that I was. I was so.
Speaker 4 (19:56):
Angry at that moment, and then he it was so
angry and we just said some things that we were like, God,
we can't take it back, you know, but it's a
learning experience for us. You know, it's at a place
where if the foundation is there, you're good because we
can go back and say, now you know where you
went wrong.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
I don't know even if you don't pray on it.
You know what I'm saying. I'm gonna fix me, you
fix you.
Speaker 4 (20:21):
But really and truly, if our foundation stays the way
it is, nothing can break us. You know what I'm saying. God,
he got it, girl, because they'd be trying, y'all.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
They do.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
Halloween cost girl, Girl, girl, What do you think in general?
Speaker 1 (20:42):
And you know she wants me to borrow it because
she might be moving herself. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
What do you think about the portrayal of black people
on reality TV?
Speaker 4 (20:55):
I think that reality TV is what people think it's.
It's a modern day version of hustling on the street.
To me, you make that kind of money, you know,
And I think people don't realize how hard it actually
is until they're in it.
Speaker 1 (21:14):
So everybody wants to do it right.
Speaker 4 (21:16):
And whether you're black or white, it doesn't matter because
at some point they're gonna see your worst side and
they're gonna see your best side, you know, and the
public is it gonna like you or they're gonna hate you.
I think that's the hardest part about reality TV. It
has nothing to do with color.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
And the darling and you had a great season, you know.
Speaker 4 (21:38):
And and actually one of the things that we're dealing
with one of our castmates because we're like, wait a minute,
you just yelled at me through the whole filming process,
and then as soon as you saw that the people
has something to say about it, now you want to apologize. Oh,
your apology is not genuine because when you said it,
(21:58):
you meant it. Butthology right based on how the people
perceive you. And we're not for that life.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
So Eugene says, it's like therapy.
Speaker 4 (22:08):
I think it is scary sometimes because you know, twelve
year vet, you start feeling like you should know better.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
You know, they get you every time, you know, or
you just gosh.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
You know, it's that fine line because you want to
be authentic, you know, and our show is known for
being authentic.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
But then it's like, hey, pull back a little bit.
You know. My sons are teenagers now, they're watching everything
so different. They we watched them grow.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Maybe my son's I just got the Instagram him saying
he wanted to open his account public, and he's like, Mom,
but you can, you can be the you know, the
manager over my account.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
And I'm like, can you just not?
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Can we just go back like I'm account I don't
even I'm just starting to really blocks now. Earlier before
the show, we were talking about cruises and like I
would say, my family's going on the whole cruise for
the holiday.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
So which cruise line? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Every year they try to get me to come and
I never go.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Okay go. So if it's Carnival, don't go.
Speaker 2 (23:10):
There might be Norwegian?
Speaker 4 (23:11):
I think, okay, we want tool for like the singles
and you know the age group.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
I don't know my not my age group girl, age
group girls.
Speaker 2 (23:24):
Mom with you, I'm right here with you, Yes, Sam,
I was.
Speaker 4 (23:35):
I was a freshman when y'all wasn't seeing behind.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Jordan wasn't.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
So talk to me about these cruises. Why, he says, so.
Speaker 1 (23:46):
You know why we liked it.
Speaker 4 (23:47):
I took my mom and my sister and my nephew,
and honestly, everybody had something to do. There was no
entertaining anybody. My husband, he was like, hey, let's go
to the couple's game show. There was all kinds.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Of it was so much, so much. I'm telling you,
it was so much fun. You would think it was corny.
We were. We had a good time.
Speaker 4 (24:08):
The only thing I will say is that if you
got thirty thousand people, please don't expect gourmet food. Okay,
you're doing nothing and wings and fries, yes, and you
might have a seafood night, and you're gonna have those
left over seafood your breakfast.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Places to right.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
So we dopped in the Bahamas.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
And what I've learned somebody told me a long time
ago we went on our Disney cruise. There's like when
you doc have the hotel that you like, come pick
you up and spend the day at the hotel and
then they bring you back.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
So that's what we did. We spent the day at Bahama.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
I know.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Bahamas. I was just there. Yeah, it's still it.
Speaker 4 (24:53):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
I lost all my money the casino, but I do
not handle overseas.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
You want some money. The Bahamas was the first time
I remember I went to the Bahamas and I won
twenty four hundred dollars in three minutes and that was it.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I cash out. Yes tomorrow Atlantis.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
It was at the Lant Yeah yeah, yeah, machine, Yeah Tony.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
But I love her.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Any she took I was like, this one looks friendly.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
They trying to get you to come back.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
Then?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
How long have you been married? Sixteen years going on
seventeen in July? So what's the secret?
Speaker 2 (25:39):
You know? People always ask that, but y'all seem like
you really and maybe it is. I don't know. I've
heard people say maybe it is nice to be like
I miss you, you've been gone for five days.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
No.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
First of all, immediately, I think as women, Edmund, we
do deserve our own space sometimes. You know, it is
nothing like being a will to just sit back and
stretch out over your bed. You know, after seventeen years
of sharing a bed, imagine whether it's like when you
don't for that right one, two or three nights?
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Right? So it's great.
Speaker 4 (26:09):
But I think our secret to success has been what
people say, it's probably a hindrance. They're like, she talks
too much, But no, baby, that has been our secret
to success. You need to know what I need, telling
me what he needs, and us coming to a happy medium. Okay,
because when you sit back and you just allow things
(26:29):
to just happen and you don't really say, baby that
hurt me, or baby, I need us to do better,
or baby, have you ever thought about this?
Speaker 1 (26:37):
You know what I'm saying? Do you see the vision?
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Like we really have those type of conversations. And I
told them, I said, I don't want to be that
old couple that's not enjoying each other. Right, you know
what I'm saying. I want to be that old couple
on the cruise or on the vacation and we playing
cards together like.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Love and we just walked me at the comedy show laughing. Yes,
you know what I'm say.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
I who was like that with her husband? And I said,
y'all laugh too much, y'all get on my nerves, like
they can't stop laughing. And I was like, what is
the what's your secret? And it has nothing to do
with his finances because he makes loves tor you know
what I'm saying. She's like, but he undergirds me. She's like,
when I'm in the bathtub, he comes in massige my shoulders.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
And you can't put that price on that. Baby.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Now, what about in the bedroom? I don't know what
they're do in the bedroom.
Speaker 4 (27:31):
I said, that's the secret to the secret for me
is uh changing it up. You know what I'm saying, Like,
I don't want us to get complacent. You know, when
we first started out.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
I remember we were in Bora, Bora on our honeymoon
and I was like, baby, we are in an overwater bungalow.
Let's do this ship. You know what I'm saying. You
know what I'm meaning by that, right.
Speaker 4 (27:53):
I was like, let's let's just look all okay, we
literally are.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Looking at the bungalow next to us and they out
there naked from New York.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
From New York, okay, if you remember, because we all
had the same anniversary. Literally, Eugene was like, no, he
would not.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
So it wasn't until two years ago. He was like,
let's tell, let's what you want to do. I said,
you get naked?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Okay, okay, So as long as you're at some point
willing to change things up in the bedroom, he ain't
gonna share.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Okay, he's not gonna share.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
So I feel like getting naked outside is a secret.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
Yes, weight be I will tear a balcony up, will
scream for the people just I want I want them
to look up, okay from out the room and check
out that was like I was in three on one.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Now, you talked about the celibacy and everything beforehand. Why
do you think that that was a bonus in order
or something that laid down the groundwork, you.
Speaker 4 (29:17):
Know, because like I said, I was in a relationship
so much that I didn't know what it was like
to date. So once I got my heart broke, after
that four year relationship, I was dating, honey, I was
out there in those streets.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
And how did you get your heart broke? What happened?
He's a cheater, that's why you had trust.
Speaker 4 (29:34):
And I was in love, you know what I'm saying.
It really was, and he got somebody else pregnant. She
good people, though, girl, good people.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
You know, she wasn't good people then, but she good people.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
I'm going to find that level of people and forgiveness,
you know, And really and truly it's not our fault.
Speaker 1 (29:54):
I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
Men out there telling all kinds of lives, and so
I think for me, I needed God to slow me
down because I was dating all the people, the quarterbacks
and what you want to tell me it was I
was having.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Maybe I had a whole book.
Speaker 4 (30:09):
It was gonna be because master mastering my singleness, mastering
your singleness.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
It was amazing.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Okay, and I don't look back. I had a great
time and you had to. I did, like, I think
that's important before you done, yes.
Speaker 1 (30:32):
And you know what it did.
Speaker 4 (30:35):
It gave me a different perspective on what I needed,
you know what I'm saying, Like, I didn't just need
a guy that was gonna.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
Hit it right because that was easy. That was the
easy part.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
I needed a guy that was patient, you know what
I'm saying Like that was the second thing on my
list of trust patience because I knew me I'm a lot,
you know I'm saying I am and should be. And
Eugene he wanted a lot and he was like, but
I'm patient. I can handle her, you know what I'm saying.
I got this and it was like, okay, so what's next?
And I was like, Oh, I just need them to
(31:04):
be a family man, you know.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
And that's what he is. So he's all those things.
And I'm telling you.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
But those are the things that you look for after
you've had the experience where you've dated the guys, and
it's just been for fun, you know what I'm saying.
Because I went through that phase where I was like,
people were like, well how many you date at the time.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
It doesn't matter through that.
Speaker 4 (31:25):
Everybody fulfills something different for me, you know what I'm saying.
Somebody might have been the guy that I was having
sex with at the time, but the other guy was
the guy that I had a conversation with. The other
guy was the guy that I traveled with. The other
guy was the guy theater.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
It's gonna be. She had a roster.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
And I'm not that.
Speaker 4 (31:51):
Way back I had way back when seventeen eighteen, nineteen.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Years How do you like the new cast members? First
of all, and everybody's like, why are you shouting this girl?
Because we needed her. We needed somebody that brought that
that that that just regular.
Speaker 4 (32:13):
She's a regular girl, and she's a boss, you know
what I'm saying. And she's a mom and she's a
good mom. And her kids when they see you, they
don't even know you. That's so sweet, but that's a testament. Okay.
And her husband, he loves her like they literally just
posted and they were talking about how they met in
(32:34):
high school, you know, and they went back to their
old high school to show the kids where they met.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Can you imagine, you know what I'm saying that that?
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Okay, we ain't breaking that, you know, not these other
people one of them. Now, I ain't gonna look it
ain't me. I didn't produce the show. I'm not an editor.
Speaker 4 (32:52):
All I can say is that Booty has did way
more talking than her. Okay, and y'all know, and I
ain't saying no that, okay, all right, So that part
and then the other one. She likes to think I
don't like her, but really I don't know her like that. Okay, Okay,
that's what Samone said. She said to you, just say you.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
Don't know her. I don't know her.
Speaker 4 (33:12):
Okay, Okay, all right, that's been I don't know her. Yeah,
there's room for growth.
