And we've been doing it since 30 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 4: we were in high school. 31 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: What you do? 32 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I have family in Chicago.

I did first fight. 35 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta file a Chicago media take up they 36 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: had on Juntee. I think it was juneteen. People was 37 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: stepping in the middle of the street, celebrated. I didn't 38 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: like to have fun as much. 39 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 4: And I talk about this time the gun violence is 40 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 4: running rapid, you know, but it is a city where 41 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 4: we celebrate. Like we're very culture. We come from family. 42 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 4: A lot of our families came from the South. Our parents, 43 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 4: our grandparents migrated. So we talked, we were raised. 44 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: Do you know what I mean? It's family and love. 45 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:49,920 Speaker 1: So we're hospitable. 46 00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 3: But then don't cross us, right because then you wake 47 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 3: up the bear. You know what I'm saying? 48 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 4: Like that, No, intend in Chicago bear shout out. But 49 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 4: it is a thing because we love so hard and 50 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 4: it's a beautiful city and I really hope that I 51 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 4: can keep bringing awareness to you know, the city and 52 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 4: the beauty of it. But the violence that is a 53 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 4: problem and running rampants. 54 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: And I think part of that is also Chicago is 55 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: super segregated, and that's by design, right, And so when 56 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: you go to certain places, you're like, how is it 57 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: so rich over here? But then I come here and 58 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:26,639 Speaker 1: it's a completely different type of vibe. With opportunity, with housing, 59 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 1: with the right education, with all of those things, it 60 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: would be less violence. Absolutely. 61 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 4: I work on the task force for Robin Kelly, who's 62 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 4: our Congress from it, and I've learned so much that 63 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 4: a lot of of the schools were closed down and 64 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 4: a lot of the after school programs. So what the 65 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,119 Speaker 4: research has shown are the kids are bored. A lot 66 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 4: of those kids with guns they are ten eleven years old. 67 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 3: They don't even understand life and death. 68 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 4: But when you ask them, because I did work with 69 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 4: Father Flagger of Saint Sabayah and he did the piece Jam, 70 00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 4: they say all they want to do is play basketball, right, 71 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 4: So he started the piece Jam and the Food of 72 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 4: Islam does security in this one day where all the 73 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 4: games come together and agree to have. 74 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: A day a piece and they play ball. 75 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 2: That's dope. 76 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 1: I remember doing something. Derek Rose has a park out 77 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 1: there right yeah, with a basketball court and everything over there. 78 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 4: And I know that Dane Wade tried to open up 79 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 4: a sports complex. It was a lot of politics that 80 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 4: played and he wasn't able to do that. But that's 81 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 4: a testament of some of the politics you know that happened. 82 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,239 Speaker 3: So there's been a lot of great work. But there's 83 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 3: so much more to do. 84 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about you and the great work that 85 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: you've been doing. Now, talk about it house in Atlanta. Now, 86 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 1: since you brought up the whole bitch and can I 87 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: say that? So Marlow and you kind of got into 88 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: it a little bit on the show kind of yeah, 89 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: it was two order. Did she come for me? And 90 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: she felt like you should have been okay with her 91 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: coming at you like that, because that's just how we talk, 92 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, how you'd be like, bitch this, and well, 93 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: you know. 94 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 4: We know different bitches like hey, bitch, that's your bitch. 95 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 4: You know that's a bitch. That's a good bitch rich, 96 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 4: but the way I received it it felt very different 97 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 4: to me. You know, when you and somebody's face and 98 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 4: you want to do that. 99 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 1: Come on, now, somebody do that? What does that mean? 100 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 3: We know in our culture, like you don't do that 101 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 3: on someone. 102 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 4: And I gave her grace, of course, because if you 103 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 4: see what I was saying, I was like, feel my heart. 104 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 4: I did not know this happened, so mind you. I've 105 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 4: been around her for years now and I never knew 106 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 4: the story. None of the ladies knew the story. So 107 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 4: I was confused trying to figure it out. 108 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: Her nephew was killed. Her nephew used to work at 109 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: Candy's restaurant, but did not get killed at cause I 110 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,799 Speaker 1: think that's where the confusion came. He used to work 111 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: at Candy's restaurant Old Lady Gang, but that's not where 112 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: he got killed, right. 113 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 4: So I was trying to navigate and understand it. And 114 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 4: when I saw that it was hurting and obviously traumatizing 115 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 4: and triggering for her. I was trying to calm her 116 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 4: down and let her know, I feel your heart. 117 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: I feel you. 118 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 3: But I guess she was just very triggered in that moment. 119 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: I can give grace in that if you can come 120 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 4: back around and own it and apologize, because I absolutely 121 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 4: had nothing to do with that, you know, And that 122 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 4: was just my issue with it, is like, now you 123 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 4: see us episode six, we're still around each other. Where's 124 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 4: the apology, where's the ownership that? Okay, I may have 125 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 4: acted out of character. That wasn't right, And that's really 126 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,440 Speaker 4: all I was looking for was if we are friends, 127 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 4: you know, why do you not care that you kind 128 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 4: of deflected and displaced that anger on me? That wasn't 129 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 4: fair to me. 130 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: And you watched the episodes, right, so you get to 131 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,799 Speaker 1: see what I just edited. You saw when you called 132 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: her from your video shoot and when she's in the car, yeah, 133 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,800 Speaker 1: Marlow's on her way to her blind date. She calls me, yes, 134 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 1: oh yeah, you guys spoke and she had some things 135 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: to say after you guys hung up.

Sometimes I can't always understand what Marlowe 145 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 4: was saying mumbles, but I was there in present, trying 146 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 4: to get through a conversation. And when she hung up 147 00:05:58,640 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 4: to hear her say all those things, I'm like, how 148 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 4: do we go from there to their? Like you called 149 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 4: me and with an intention I thought to have some 150 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 4: resolution And then I mean those things she said I 151 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 4: feel were blow the belt, you know, body shaming. 152 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 1: Really yeah, that was really nasty.

And also there are some people 162 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: that felt like you were acting and you know, like 163 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 2: you were you you know, you didn't want to say 164 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 2: the word when you were talking, you know, like it 165 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,360 Speaker 2: was hard for you to get it out with some 166 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: people saying like you didn't want to mention it on 167 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 2: the show. Can you clarify what that was about? 168 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 3: Or first of all, people that narrative that I'm yes, 169 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 3: I'm an actress. 170 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: Okay, I get paid to do it. 171 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 4: But it's a bad narrative that it's just they're running 172 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,359 Speaker 4: with it. Cause it's like, Okay, I might be dramatic Chicago, 173 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 4: I talk with my hands, but I am really what 174 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,599 Speaker 4: Chu sue is what you get, like, I am the 175 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 4: same person. So I don't really like that narrative because 176 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 4: I do come and being my authentic, genuine self. So 177 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 4: I thought that way, But in that moment, I was 178 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 4: at Candy's restaurant with my mom. We were celebrating her 179 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 4: seventy sixth birthday. It was like thirty family members from Chicago. 180 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 4: We were all at Blaze two days before that story broke. 181 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 4: So I reached out to Candy in real life and 182 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,800 Speaker 4: we talked. So when I brought it up, I was 183 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,680 Speaker 4: checking it on my friend. I'm going to always be respectful. 184 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 4: And I also feel like we have a big platform. 185 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 4: Let's not act like there's not cameras here. I feel 186 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 4: like when we are speaking to these type of issues, 187 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 4: we need to be sensitive to the people that are watching. 188 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 4: After that episode aired, I got so many calls from 189 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 4: the Mayor of Chicago, alder men, mothers that have lost 190 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 4: their children of gun violence, and they were very triggered. 191 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 4: So I felt that we have a responsibility to be 192 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 4: sensitive to those watching. And because I'm from Chicago, what 193 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 4: I was saying in that moment was there is a 194 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 4: lot of gun violence. Everyone knows what we deal with 195 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 4: in Chicago. Please let's not throw this word around and 196 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 4: let's just be sensitive. So I do choose my words 197 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 4: because I'm aware that people can be triggered watching it, 198 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 4: and it's a very sensitive subject, right, And I feel like, 199 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 4: if we're going to have the conversation, let's elevate it 200 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 4: and then let's talk about it and what we can 201 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 4: do to be positive game changers with gun violence. And 202 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 4: that was That's genuine from my heart. And I just 203 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 4: feel like we have to be responsible on this platform. 204 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, you absolutely do. And Jre, I feel like 205 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: this season, you have a lot that you have to 206 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 1: deal with. And so new music, first of all, let's 207 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: put that out because you were doing a video and 208 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: this is a song that did he write this song? 209 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: You produced? It, he reduced it. Okay, he co reduced it. 210 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 1: And so but y'all were going through I guess in 211 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: the studio that's when things were really working between you guys, 212 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 1: as you're trying you were trying to work through your marriage. Yes, 213 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: but then unfortunately we found out that things did end 214 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,720 Speaker 1: up falling apart and you both actually found for divorce, 215 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: right like, you filed first and then he filed right out. 216 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 2: Racing to the core house. 217 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: Why now, why does that happen just for people who 218 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: don't know, Like, why does it matter who files for divorce? 219 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 4: Well, I actually we were in marriage counseling, so I'll 220 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 4: start there. We were in marriage counseling. He stopped coming 221 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 4: to marriage counseling and I stayed in marriage counseling. 222 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,439 Speaker 1: And during that time, we. 223 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 4: Focused on music because that was like what brought us 224 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 4: together and that was our happy place. So that was 225 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 4: kind of a good distraction for us. But we weren't 226 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 4: dealing with the issues in the marriage. So ultimately what 227 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 4: you see is, you know, we're enjoying each other, we 228 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 4: enjoy music, we're both passionate, but those issues were still 229 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,480 Speaker 4: coming up, you know, some on camera, some off camera, 230 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,959 Speaker 4: and really we just reached a breaking point of things 231 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 4: that continuously happened in the marriage that I no longer 232 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 4: could deal with. So he caught whin that I was filing, 233 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 4: and I filed, and a testament to who he is, 234 00:09:58,559 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 4: he tried. 235 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: To beat me. So it was like, no, does a matter, 236 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: Like what's the point of who files? Like why would 237 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: he try to beat you to do that? What does 238 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,319 Speaker 1: that even? Is it just for the public, Like, yeah, 239 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 1: I felt. 240 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 4: Like it was just for public reputation, you know, to 241 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 4: save face, to maybe deflect and slip it in a way, 242 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 4: to be the victim. I really can't speak for him, 243 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,319 Speaker 4: but that was how it felt to me and you. 244 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 1: I want to make sure that we're sensitive to you 245 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:30,600 Speaker 1: because this is real life issues. You guys have children together. 246 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 1: This is not like a TV acting situation. I know 247 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: this isn't easy for you. You guys had eight years 248 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 1: of marriage. You put up with a lot. Honestly, even 249 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 1: in previous seasons. I definitely feel for you because it 250 00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: felt like you wanted your marriage to work. You just 251 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: wanted some honesty, and there were certain things that I 252 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:53,679 Speaker 1: think anybody watching is like he beugging, Yeah, like this 253 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: is this is wowd this is crazy. And so I 254 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 1: saw the reason that you fouled was these infidelities you 255 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,360 Speaker 1: know that were happening and people even sending screenshots of 256 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: conversations and things like that. And how did he react 257 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: to that because it feels like he also doesn't really 258 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,560 Speaker 1: take much accountability that part. Yeah, that was it. 259 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 4: It was you know, as a woman, as a wife, 260 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 4: I just did what I felt that was my duty, 261 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 4: which was to submit to my husband. And the better 262 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 4: for worse was really sincere in my heart. My parents 263 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 4: have been married for sixty years, so I only see 264 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 4: you know, my example was seeing two people who loved 265 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 4: each other constantly working to make their marriage right. So, yeah, 266 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 4: we had issues, but I always looked to him to 267 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 4: own it emotionally, helped me heal, you know, apologize, just 268 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 4: make things right. And I never received that, so the 269 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 4: trust diminished. I now can say, I think I lost 270 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 4: a lot of confidence even still. So yeah, ultimately it 271 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,440 Speaker 4: was like enough is enough? Like now it's the public 272 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 4: humiliation of it, so it's not even that we're dealing 273 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 4: with this behind closed doors, and all of that just 274 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 4: kind of had me to reach a breaking point. 275 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: You think this show made it where it's like the 276 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,679 Speaker 1: attention that he was getting from that and people also 277 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: being able to see everything play out. I remember and 278 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: I had when this happened. I was on the Breakfast 279 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: Club at the time. But he did this whole thing 280 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: where he like went out of town and didn't tell 281 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: you where he was going. I made that a topic. 282 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: I was like, you can't go out of town and 283 00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: just not say where you are and think that that's 284 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: okay and just be like I need to get away. Yeah, 285 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: Like getting away is like let me go for a 286 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: walk around the block right. 287 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 2: Or and this is where I'm going, this is where 288 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: I'm staying, here's my address. Let me fail Like that's 289 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 2: stepping away, having a moment to yourself. 290 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that was all like I understand people 291 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 4: needing a break a time out, but let me know, 292 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 4: we have three kids. This was right after my achille surgery, 293 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 4: so I essentially had like one good leg, you know, 294 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 4: I was in a cast and the other one, so 295 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 4: it was like, you leave, that was crazy, and you know, 296 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 4: and I didn't know where he was and he wasn't answering, 297 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 4: so that that was, you know, an episode that I 298 00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,559 Speaker 4: thought we moved past, but there was more of that, 299 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 4: you know, So it just it wasn't getting better. 300 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't getting better. Do you feel like the women 301 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 1: are supportive during this time for you? 302 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: So far? 303 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: They have been. 304 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 4: That's great, say for sure, Like I do appreciate them 305 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 4: reaching out. Kenya has been amazing, Candy just really sharing 306 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 4: even advice because you know, Kenya's been going through similar situations. 307 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,719 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, I saw when Cheray was up here, 308 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: she was just saying that she doesn't like the pettiness 309 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: and she wants to make sure that you guys can 310 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: support each other and that she but she said she 311 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: feels like she supports everyone, but she doesn't get that 312 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: in return. 313 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 5: Yeah. 314 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 4: I mean, I think we all have our moments, you know, 315 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 4: but I do think when there's real life happening, that 316 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,360 Speaker 4: sisterhood does come to the forefront. 317 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:50,199 Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay, and so let's discuss the music. Let's get 318 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: back to that.

And that bothers me because even 402 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 4: when the headline came out that he filed first, we 403 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 4: found out that was actually him, you know, and his 404 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 4: attorney running to the press, and I was like, wait 405 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 4: a minute, Like I filed with our initials. You know, 406 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 4: I did not name our children in my petition. I 407 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:43,400 Speaker 4: wanted to keep it pretty, you know, quiet, and they 408 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 4: filed with our full names, you know, it was just 409 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 4: all the details. So it came out in the press 410 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 4: and that was like devastating for me because I wanted 411 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 4: to protect our kids through this process as much as possible. 412 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: So I get a. 413 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 4: Sense that, you know, there's gonna be some drama, yeah, 414 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 4: and I just don't want that, you know. 415 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: For our children.

Okay. 417 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: So that's why I can't always say the show. 418 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 4: I can't blame the show because I feel like the 419 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 4: cameras kind of held us accountable. Like, once you start 420 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 4: saying certain things to the world, you know, you have 421 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 4: to deal with it now. You can't just stay in 422 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 4: that place. But there were issues.
