Speaker 1: You then the show.
Speaker 4: Stop your lies.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something.
Speaker 3: Obviously, I worked on Housewives of Atlanta, New Jersey, so
Speaker 3: I'm a big fan of the franchise. When Miami first started,
Speaker 3: I enjoyed season two.
Speaker 1: Season one, I was like, somebody's missing Season two, I like.
Speaker 4: Okay, I like okay, I love it.
Speaker 2: I like it.
Speaker 4: And this season three happening what happened? But then it
Speaker 4: went on hiatus first for like a.
Speaker 3: Couple of years, and then when the show was announced
Speaker 3: to come back, I was like, okay, because I used
Speaker 3: to live in Miami for how long?
Speaker 4: Like two years? Okay, for like two years. That's enough
Speaker 4: to stay.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, I like my money enough to go
Speaker 1: other places.
Speaker 4: I call your snow bird, please, okay.
Speaker 1: So I like to call Miami my side piece.
Speaker 4: Yes, okay, that's fine because.
Speaker 3: I can't get away from it. I'm having any emotional
Speaker 3: affair with Miami.
Speaker 4: Only Miami. Good clear. So when it came back, yeah,
Speaker 4: because you know the African, oh, you know, the African
Speaker 4: ain't gonna put up with that nice tonny. So you
Speaker 4: better have a side piece which is called Miami, but
Speaker 4: not a side piece called Miami. Get it. I love
Speaker 4: that you know about my African I know about everything
Speaker 4: with you. I'm obsessed with you more than you obsessed

Speaker 4: Wow, I said they.
Speaker 3: I said they got it right because you have all
Speaker 3: this personality. You're obviously extremely gorgeous. You're extremely gorgeous. I'm
Speaker 3: a huge fan of yours. I love your relationship with
Speaker 3: your husband, Russell, who's also gorgeous.

Speaker 1: Yes, he's here's the party.
Speaker 4: Yes, and you're beautiful. Boys.
Speaker 3: I love I just I just love everything about you.
Speaker 3: So I'm so thankful that we get a chance to go.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, I feel like I know you first
Speaker 4: of all, so give me your hand. I feel like
Speaker 4: I live truly, I'm like I know this person. I
Speaker 4: feel like I know you. Your energy and people like us
Speaker 4: for example, like we're not for everybody. We're not for everybody,
Speaker 4: and that's okay because the people who want to miss
Speaker 4: out big mistake, right, like pretty woman, it really is.
Speaker 4: And I'm just myself and you either love me or
Speaker 4: you hate me, and it is what it is. But
Speaker 4: give me a shot. And I think you know, you
Speaker 4: get to see a lot of different sides of Gurtie.
Speaker 1: No, we love you.
Speaker 3: So I want to get back to just your background
Speaker 3: because you are from Haiti.
Speaker 1: Yes, you're a Haitian American. Talk to me just.
Speaker 3: About that background and what it means to be a
Speaker 3: powerful black woman in Florida but also worldwide in terms
Speaker 3: of your business and really seeing that you are a
Speaker 3: force to be reckoned with.
Speaker 4: Well, I mean, I was born in Haiti and at
Speaker 4: the age of one, my family and I'm one of
Speaker 4: seven kids, so I'm number six of seven. And of
Speaker 4: the whole seven children, there's five girls and two so
Speaker 4: kudos to my father for that, right, So I'm number
Speaker 4: six and at that time there's only six of us.
Speaker 4: My sister was born nine years after me, so I
Speaker 4: was the youngest one when I was in Haiti, literally
Speaker 4: the last picture of us is me in my mom's arm.
Speaker 4: And then you know, my father decided because of the
Speaker 4: political turmoil there that we were going to move to France.
Speaker 4: So I was only one going to France. So Haiti
Speaker 4: has a very special place in my heart because it's
Speaker 4: I am Haitian and it's in my blood. But unfortunately
Speaker 4: I never get the chance to live and feel the
Speaker 4: soil and feel that culture beat, and so away from
Speaker 4: Haiti is where I get the sense of being Haitian.
Speaker 4: But I always feel like that's a miss in my
Speaker 4: life and avoid that I hope comes full circle and
Speaker 4: I end up back in my country some way, somehow.
Speaker 4: So I, you know, raised in France for eight years.
Speaker 4: At the age of nine, my father says, okay, America
Speaker 4: is the place to be. Everyone's going to America, all
Speaker 4: of our friends, et cetera. And we migrate to America.
Speaker 4: Now that's a whole other story. But I came to
Speaker 4: this country and not speaking of word of English. I
Speaker 4: spoke French and a little bit of Creole, and you know,
Speaker 4: trying to get acclimated. And the thing with with with
Speaker 4: Miami is that you know, there's a lot of cultures already,
Speaker 4: so Now it's this girl who says she's Haitian, but
Speaker 4: she kind of speaks Haitian but she has an accent,
Speaker 4: so she's friends, Oh, you think it better than me.
Speaker 4: So I had to struggle to just fit in. And
Speaker 4: that's been my whole whole life, always trying to like
Speaker 4: fit in somewhere somehow, the whole thing, you know. And
Speaker 4: then come to Miami and this is actually what I
Speaker 4: consider my home because here is where you have that
Speaker 4: culture cultural mix, and everybody just kind of, you know,
Speaker 4: appreciates each other, each other culture, and I just love
Speaker 4: to be here because this is really a special sauce,
Speaker 4: is what I like to call it. And I'm just
Speaker 4: very proud to be in Miami and you know, representing
Speaker 4: Haiti friends and America here here in the three or five.
Speaker 3: No, honey, you are the secret sauce. When it comes
Speaker 3: to how you were planted here. Yeah, what was your
Speaker 3: teenage years like being somebody who came here not speaking
Speaker 3: a leak of English? Was it difficult for you to
Speaker 3: make friends?
Speaker 4: Very difficult? And what happens is I see my story
Speaker 4: is told in my photos. I go through my albums
Speaker 4: and I'm like, oh, that's the face when I try
Speaker 4: to fit into this crowd. That's the face when I
Speaker 4: try to fit into this other crowd. And you imagine
Speaker 4: I will never not have an accent, you know, I'm
Speaker 4: never gonna be normal in a sense. And I've learned
Speaker 4: to accept me because I'm a lot, i know. And
Speaker 4: when I walk in the room, I'm like, hey, guys,
Speaker 4: how are you? And people not everyone's able to receive it,
Speaker 4: like you like we we're here, we're like firecrackers because
Speaker 4: we're so full of life and we appreciate life, so
Speaker 4: we live out loud and everyone's like, oh my god,
Speaker 4: you're too much. And so I lived my life literally
Speaker 4: feeling confident when I came to America, and then it's like,
Speaker 4: oh no, they don't like me over here. Oh no,
Speaker 4: they don't like me over there. And it's tiring. It's
Speaker 4: tiring to try to fit in. So now I realized,
Speaker 4: just do me, and those who are going to be
Speaker 4: my tribe will be my vibe, and that's it. That's
Speaker 4: what I can offer, and it's worked out for me
Speaker 4: ever since. But I had to put myself in the
Speaker 4: leadership position because there's so many people like me that
Speaker 4: won't speak up for that. And in high school, elementary school,
Speaker 4: I'm going to say elementary school is the worst. And
Speaker 4: then junior high was acclamation, and then high school was
Speaker 4: the takeover and the queen took her crown. Literally, I
Speaker 4: was promp queen and everything. By the end. Yeah, and
Speaker 4: I got my king over there, and twenty eight years later,
Speaker 4: I'm living my best life. And it is it is
Speaker 4: what it is.
Speaker 1: Why was elementary school hard for you?
Speaker 4: Why? Because I was the tallest girl. I was literally
Speaker 4: pretty much this height with my father was a pastor,
Speaker 4: so you got the freaking braids, with the ribbon, with
Speaker 4: the you know, all of that I was. I was
Speaker 4: here at the age of fourth grade, third grade, going
Speaker 4: into fourth grade, and so all the kids were making
Speaker 4: fun of me. I had to go to a special
Speaker 4: class called ESOL, which is special education for like English learners.
Speaker 4: It was really bad. I was wearing like you know,
Speaker 4: church outfits and like you know, raise my hair, and
Speaker 4: all the girls have perms, and I was tall and
Speaker 4: they used to call me giraffe. And I didn't speak English,
Speaker 4: and so it was hard. It was really hard. And
Speaker 4: then all of a sudden, I'm like, wait, I am
Speaker 4: the tallest, so actually I'm towering over them, so like
Speaker 4: a giraffe andey, I look down on you people. That's
Speaker 4: how I had to set myself out to be like
Speaker 4: I'm a bad ditch, and little by little, little by little,
Speaker 4: I just started gaining that confidence back to what I
Speaker 4: used to have in France, because in France, you didn't
Speaker 4: mess with me. Somebody was getting beat up or I'm
Speaker 4: gonna call Gerdy. And by the way, exclusive my name
Speaker 4: was not Gerdy in France, Okay. I had what they
Speaker 4: called me in friends is Elicieba. So my full name
Speaker 4: is Gerdy Elisheba Regui. That's my full name.
Speaker 1: I know, Okay, I want to pronounce it.
Speaker 5: It's Gerdid Elicia Ba Alicia BONI like it's rejoiced, but
Speaker 5: like it's with REGI.
Speaker 4: So that that was my name, So imagine that's friendship.
Speaker 4: I don't know whatever my mom was thinking of, Honey,
Speaker 4: that woman was very creative and so this kid the
Speaker 4: reason why we switched my switch my name. You're getting
Speaker 4: so many details here that no one even knows. So
Speaker 4: when I came to America, I was like, oh, my
Speaker 4: name is Elicia Belt and they were like, what Alicia
Speaker 4: bum bum bum bum bum. They were making fun of
Speaker 4: my name, and then I'm like, okay, how am I
Speaker 4: going to do this? Girdy Gerty, Gerty Gerty, Oh Gerty, okay, girl,
Speaker 4: g you name. I'm like, okay, okay, let's do this.
Speaker 4: So it switched to Gerty. But I came to this
Speaker 4: country with a completely different name, which was my middle name,
Speaker 4: and then I ended up leading with my first name.
Speaker 4: So now is gerdy.
Speaker 1: Y fascinating? Fascinating?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 1: How did you get into.
Speaker 3: Wedding planning, design and just the beauty aspect of your career?
Speaker 4: So, like I told you, by the end of high school,
Speaker 4: going into college, I was a full boss. I owned myself,
Speaker 4: I owned my truth, and I owned my identity. And
Speaker 4: so I went to Saint Thomas University, which is the
Speaker 4: same college that my husband went to, and I stayed behind.
Speaker 4: Actually another exclusive, I wanted to pursue ballroom dancing. That
Speaker 4: was that, yes, I know. That was after high school.
Speaker 4: I fell in love with watching Dance with Me with
Speaker 4: Vanessa Williams. I said, this is me, I am her,
Speaker 4: she is me. I'm going to New York and I'm
Speaker 4: learning the chatcha honey, Okay. And then he had me
Speaker 4: at hell and I said, I'm this is this is it.
Speaker 4: He is my future. And I stayed here and I
Speaker 4: don't regret a thing because obviously, look at this beautiful life.
Speaker 4: Two kids later, the whole thing. And so that's why
Speaker 4: now in exercising, I'm like, okay, I'm walking, I'm doing elliptical.
Speaker 4: Now I'm getting back into my groove of dancing again.
Speaker 4: So I feel so happy. And everyone's like, oh my god,
Speaker 4: you should be on dancing with the stores, and I'm like,
Speaker 4: I could only wish and dream to represent. Can you imagine?
Speaker 4: So it's a whole of the village, honey, she knows
Speaker 4: a little self, little something something. Yes, indeed, what was
Speaker 4: your question again? So how did I become due to
Speaker 4: event planning? Right? Yes? So then I decided to go
Speaker 4: into communication arts because in my mind, I'm like, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna be a news anchor if I'm not gonna go
Speaker 4: ballroom dancing, So I'm going to stay here and do
Speaker 4: communication arts. And then I'm like, you know, I have
Speaker 4: an accent, and I feel like this, I'm better in
Speaker 4: the back of the house producing my shows than being
Speaker 4: in the front. As a quote unquote reporter, So then
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, I was VP and then president
Speaker 4: of the TV station at my college, and then all
Speaker 4: of a sudden, I ended up getting a job at
Speaker 4: the alumni office doing event planning for them and throwing
Speaker 4: all these gallas to raise money. And they wanted me
Speaker 4: to go around and meet with all these alumni and
Speaker 4: ask for money, and I'm like, I don't like asking
Speaker 4: for money, but I like putting on the parties. So
Speaker 4: that's how I started saying, okay, zone in girls, zone
Speaker 4: in parties, party planning, how do I get into this?
Speaker 4: So through catering, you know your stuff from the back
Speaker 4: of the house, then you are able to lead in
Speaker 4: the front of the house. And that's how I ended
Speaker 4: up doing event planning. And I never looked back because
Speaker 4: I am very bossy. I am a multitasker, and I
Speaker 4: think way bigger than anybody can even presume. Just like you,
Speaker 4: you think big, and then you need the right team
Speaker 4: to make sure. Like I want to do is make
Speaker 4: it happen. And then you get the right team and
Speaker 4: then it just makes you look good. So I just
Speaker 4: ended up doing this for twenty two years, and at
Speaker 4: the highest level. If you know, a place called Fisher
Speaker 4: Island is where the one percent live. You can't even
Speaker 4: drive there, my friend, you got to take a ferry
Speaker 4: to get on. You're not getting cleared. You get it
Speaker 4: on by boat. You get it on by helicopter, private helicopter,
Speaker 4: or by the ferry. And that's how exclusive it is.
Speaker 4: So I've seen Beyonce, Usher, Oprah, you know, Rose O'donald.
Speaker 4: Trust me, I've seen it all. I've done it all
Speaker 4: for all of them, with non disclosure agreements of course.
Speaker 4: But you know, that's where you get your grind. You
Speaker 4: know you're able to that's where you get your grind.
Speaker 4: You're able to really know and learn from the good,
Speaker 4: the bad, the ugly through those you know, those different experiences,
Speaker 4: and it brought me to where I am today. So
Speaker 4: I'm very fearless because of the fact that I've worked.
Speaker 4: I worked with fear for a very long time.
Speaker 3: No, that's amazing because obviously, here you are, You're this
Speaker 3: beautiful powerhouse. You're running a multimillion dollar business in a
Speaker 3: billion dollar industry, and you are a black woman dominating
Speaker 3: that space in one of the richest states in the.
Speaker 1: World, Florida.
Speaker 3: And I don't think people really understand the gravity of
Speaker 3: what that means.
Speaker 4: So you're as good as your last event. That's what
Speaker 4: I like to say, yes when I tell you you
Speaker 4: have to stay humbled in life because the moment that
Speaker 4: you're like, oh I'm this, I'm this, I'm that, oh,
Speaker 4: you will get knocked down in three seconds. And obviously
Speaker 4: we'll talk about it later. But cancer was that moment
Speaker 4: for me of like, oh, humble, yes, humble, but yeah,
Speaker 4: you have to stay literally focused, keep your head down,
Speaker 4: do the work, because you're as good as your last
Speaker 4: event or good as your last performance, whatever you're doing life,
Speaker 4: learn that real quick. Humble yourself always.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah no, and listen so to be able to
Speaker 3: have all of this going on for yourself, beautiful family,
Speaker 3: You have this amazing career, this lucrative career.
Speaker 4: Perfect life.
Speaker 3: When you received the call for Miami Housewives, though, okay,
Speaker 3: what happened? Like, how did you get the call? How
Speaker 3: did you end up on the show, what were your
Speaker 3: thoughts on it? Did you even know about this show
Speaker 3: prior to get.
Speaker 4: I am a Bravo a holic for sure. I will
Speaker 4: always love Bravo. I mean, my god, the best. To me,
Speaker 4: it was the best messy shows ever, it's like, you know,
Speaker 4: it's escapism, right. So, like I come from home from
Speaker 4: a long event and I'm like, okay, what is this
Speaker 4: housewife show about? Oh no, she didn't. You know. You
Speaker 4: react to these situations that you've been put in and
Speaker 4: so forth, and I think that I seem to look
Speaker 4: like the perfect housewife, the husband, the house of this.
Speaker 4: I got it all, you know, in the sense of
Speaker 4: the checklist. But I knew some of the girls beforehand.
Speaker 4: And it's all about connectivity with these shows. If it
Speaker 4: ain't real, it ain't happening, because it can't be reality
Speaker 4: TV without the real inn it, right. So for me,
Speaker 4: it's like Nicole and I are so funny because she's
Speaker 4: literally my best friend and we were around the same circles.
Speaker 4: I have a photo of her as in a background
Speaker 4: in an event that I was being honored on because
Speaker 4: it was a magazine that I was being featured on,
Speaker 4: and she was at that event and we didn't know
Speaker 4: each other, but we were always in the same circle.
Speaker 4: Same with Alexia. So through all these connections, all of
Speaker 4: a sudden we meet and then the show calls and
Speaker 4: it's like, oh my god, this is like all meant
Speaker 4: to be everything in life is meant to be everything.
Speaker 4: There's no mistakes in this life. And so once you were,
Speaker 4: once you acknowledge it, when the call came, it was
Speaker 4: kind of like, Okay, this is it, this is it.
Speaker 4: And you know, I look at Russell of course, because
Speaker 4: his approval this includes him too, and he knew, he
Speaker 4: knew that it was like it was inevitable, it's what
Speaker 4: I want to say, and he felt comfortable. And I
Speaker 4: like the fact that he didn't threaten my livelihood, which
Speaker 4: is my business. It wasn't so like here Gerty Jeff
Speaker 4: Lewis style, you know what I mean, because there was
Speaker 4: a few opportunities prior with that whole concept. But I
Speaker 4: said to myself, this is perfect because it shows my
Speaker 4: balanced life in a sense. So this was great. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't regret it. I love it.
Speaker 1: What was the audition process like for you?
Speaker 4: It was at so much audition. It was all about
Speaker 4: again that all these girls knew each other and from
Speaker 4: one and then you know, obviously I think the root
Speaker 4: came from the pre cast, those who came from season
Speaker 4: one two and how did they evolve ten years later?
Speaker 4: So then the involvement included some of us newbies, and
Speaker 4: that's how we came to be. So it was actually
Speaker 4: the perfect the perfect timing, the perfect people around everything,
Speaker 4: the surrounding was proper for everybody, and I think it
Speaker 4: just worked out. So it was meant to be.
Speaker 3: No, it really was, because I've said this on my
Speaker 3: podcast and the world is saying this too. Real Housewives
Speaker 3: in Miami is truly truly one of the best housewives
Speaker 3: out like you are doing together.
Speaker 4: Recognition for you yet, but they've come around soon.
Speaker 3: No, Listen, when I watched the reboot, if you will,
Speaker 3: that first season of the reboot, which is season three.
Speaker 1: Technically, we were all like, no, this is it.
Speaker 3: My African I we were living in Miami at the time,
Speaker 3: and we were like yes.
Speaker 1: We were like, no, this is it.
Speaker 3: Because one thing about Miami that we're all obsessed with
Speaker 3: is you get amazing personal stories.
Speaker 1: Yes, everybody clocks in to work.
Speaker 4: Everybody, honey, friends of our friends, friends, friends like that. Honey,
Speaker 4: come on now, we're all tune in. We're all leveled,
Speaker 4: we're team and it's like, no one is lesser than
Speaker 4: anybody period. Okay, I right, hard for my friends of
Speaker 4: and those are that should be you know, there is
Speaker 4: we're equal partners who I hate.
Speaker 3: Just around, but stay tuned for more. Ooh, brain drops.
Speaker 3: I have so much fun this weekend. I was hanging
Speaker 3: out with my friends, luxuriating a boy the pool, playing
Speaker 3: basketball cause you know I'm athletic.
Speaker 1: But baby, I have so much to do this week.

Speaker 3: reality with the King and I'm Carlos King. Let's get
Speaker 3: back into the show. One of the things that I'm
Speaker 3: so interested in when it comes to the dynamic of Miami,
Speaker 3: do all of you ladies have a conversation like we're
Speaker 3: gonna bring it because one thing Alexia said on Watch
Speaker 3: What Happens Live, she does feel like Miami Housewives is
Speaker 3: like the step children of the franchise. She mentioned that before,
Speaker 3: so I was always curious, like my marriage to medicine girls,
Speaker 3: they're like, listen, we're going to be ourselves, that we're
Speaker 3: going to make the best show.
Speaker 4: It's that a conversation, it's that a reaction to something.
Speaker 4: It's just I think literally the melting pot that we are,
Speaker 4: like we can't help it. Like I'm telling you right now,
Speaker 4: Miami is in the sauce. I always like to say
Speaker 4: that we have our seasoning that no one could replicate.
Speaker 4: It's like turn the cameras off for real, for real,
Speaker 4: we're still going at it or we're still talking like
Speaker 4: oh my god. But it's this thing. It's a cadence
Speaker 4: that no one could get and it's just the thing
Speaker 4: that we have together. So it's like you put a
Speaker 4: camera on or off, it doesn't matter because we are
Speaker 4: going to be that one personality as we are. Because
Speaker 4: that's why I think we were the chosen ones, because
Speaker 4: we literally just gel in a way that's like not explicable.
Speaker 4: It's just weird and it's just organic and it's real.
Speaker 4: It's not made up, it's not put on. So when
Speaker 4: people some people are like, oh, Gertie, she's so extra. No, no, no,
Speaker 4: you don't know what this guy has to go through.
Speaker 4: Russell's like dealing with cuckoo crazy in the best way. Like,
Speaker 4: you know, we live we live out loud. Here, we
Speaker 4: live out loud. It's too damn hot, honey to get out,
Speaker 4: like we gotta let it all out, get it all out.
Speaker 1: No, and you let it all out too.
Speaker 3: And I remember last season one of the things that
Speaker 3: your cast makes we're saying about you, was like you're
Speaker 3: doing too much Gerty, Remember, so.
Speaker 4: They weren't doing enough, keep going, keep going. Yeah, when
Speaker 4: people say you do too much, what does that mean?
Speaker 4: Because you ain't doing enough. That has nothing to do
Speaker 4: with me. I'll take care of my lane. You take
Speaker 4: care of your lane. Let's keep talking. Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 4: It was kind of like we're taking a back and
Speaker 4: mind you, all of them in their own way are
Speaker 4: very much too much in their own right right. So
Speaker 4: it's kind of like you dictate what I can bring
Speaker 4: to the table and how much of it, Like you
Speaker 4: don't do this, you United scientist, So do not bring
Speaker 4: my water level down to bring yours up, Like that's
Speaker 4: not gonna happen.
Speaker 3: Well, I concur because last season when I was watching
Speaker 3: it and you guys were in the sprinter traveling and
Speaker 3: you and Alexia got into it because she just felt
Speaker 3: like you were doing the most and when I say, baby,
Speaker 3: you checked her so good, it was like, I don't go.
Speaker 4: There because you know what, Alexi and I are so
Speaker 4: good right now. And went to the reunion, honey, the
Speaker 4: team up is real, okay, And you're not ready because
Speaker 4: it's when I tell you the reunion, it's going to
Speaker 4: spin heads, like, wait a minute, what's going on here?
Speaker 4: You're not ready. You're not ready because there's a lot
Speaker 4: of secrets revealed about some people, and the truth comes
Speaker 4: out in the best way, in the truthful way, and
Speaker 4: finally it comes out in the sense of like, okay,
Speaker 4: let's lay things on the line of what it is
Speaker 4: and what it ain't. So that we can move forward
Speaker 4: or not type of things. So, yeah, you guys got
Speaker 4: to tune in for the reunion.
Speaker 1: So you and a Lexi are teaming up against the
Speaker 1: other team.
Speaker 4: Teaming up strategically. It's just that I ended up looking
Speaker 4: over to her like, Okay, now you're on the bus,
Speaker 4: let's go girls. No, it's good, so trust me back
Speaker 4: then if we'll go back there. Briefly, what happened was
Speaker 4: is just kind of like I just felt that I
Speaker 4: wasn't being or able to be my full self, and
Speaker 4: because of the fact that everyone felt like, you know, oh,
Speaker 4: we were here first. It really was kind of like
Speaker 4: OG's versus newbies that is no longer happening. And I
Speaker 4: love that because now people are really seeing people for
Speaker 4: who they are and not because of like I know
Speaker 4: you longer and this and that. So we're we're scratching
Speaker 4: the prerequisites. I didn't feel like I was on the
Speaker 4: same level before. I felt like it was kind of like,
Speaker 4: get up and it's like, oh, you don't know anything
Speaker 4: about that, You don't you want friends with her for
Speaker 4: twenty years. I don't care because we're not twenty years back.
Speaker 4: We're twenty twenty three. Twenty twenty two and twenty twenty four.
Speaker 4: So let's go forward, soldiers, is what I'd like to say.
Speaker 4: So yeah, so I think that now everyone's got the message,
Speaker 4: and it's.
Speaker 1: It's looking good, it's looking at the future is looking bright.
Speaker 4: Definitely cloud the skies, a little sprinkle of rain.
Speaker 2: Rain.
Speaker 1: I love a good weather report.
Speaker 4: How do you feel We're crazy? You know this right? No?
Speaker 3: You know you're my type? How do you feel when
Speaker 3: people say? This got to Alexia's head? She felt that
Speaker 3: she was a fan favorite and that she's the queen
Speaker 3: of the show. And I even think she intimated the
Speaker 3: same as well.
Speaker 4: Well, I can't discredit her for she holds the show
Speaker 4: down in a way that is stable, especially through the
Speaker 4: story with Frankie, and because that story is constant, it
Speaker 4: is a present, it is a pass, it is the future.
Speaker 4: She's with him, he's thank God, of course. And so
Speaker 4: you know, Alexia has a really good heart. But I
Speaker 4: think that obviously through pain and heart from what happened
Speaker 4: with her her life she lived. Her life is a telenovela.
Speaker 4: It's literally not even normal. So she has I think
Speaker 4: aggression sometimes where she takes it out in different ways.
Speaker 4: We all do. By the way how we show it
Speaker 4: is different, and that's what it is, you know. So
Speaker 4: I can't fault her for whatever she is. It's just
Speaker 4: about like just be respectful to others, you know. And
Speaker 4: so I think that she may have been in a place,
Speaker 4: you know, last season, but I think she's you know,
Speaker 4: she's she's realized it. And you see this season her
Speaker 4: putting her best best foot forward at the New Horizon
Speaker 4: episode that happened, you know, the first of the first episode,
Speaker 4: like she tries to say, hey, I saw my bad.
Speaker 4: I'm trying to do good moving forward, And that's what
Speaker 4: it is. It's growth, right, trying to do better the
Speaker 4: people who don't understand how to grow. That's called a clown. Okay.
Speaker 1: Do you sometimes feel like you're at a circus act?
Speaker 4: Sometimes I do, But it ain't a funny one. It isn't.
Speaker 4: So what do you want me to do? So it's
Speaker 4: kind of like it's a scary, you know how people
Speaker 4: are scared of clowns. Now, I understand.
Speaker 1: Why is it like the IT movies?
Speaker 2: Sometimes I don't see it?
Speaker 4: Is it a horror knows? I don't do horrors or
Speaker 4: come to my house or locking my door with the mask.
Speaker 4: Don't do it because we're ready to We're ready to respond.
Speaker 4: Trust be that. Okay, we don't play games in my house.
Speaker 4: We're very secure.
Speaker 3: So by you, by you being this world renown even planners,
Speaker 3: you obviously have created parties, created spaces for people to
Speaker 3: hang out, and been to tons of events. Yes, Lisa's
Speaker 3: obviously is going through this divorce. What has been said
Speaker 3: on the show is how her and Lenny had these,
Speaker 3: you know, luxurious parties.
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, I've been to two of them actually.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And and how there will always be like these
Speaker 3: scantily clad females around these parties who sometimes.
Speaker 1: Didn't fit the bill if you will, Well maybe they.
Speaker 4: Were maybe maybe they were chump change that weren't bills.
Speaker 4: So that's the that's the first thing. Rule number one
Speaker 4: to go to Lisa party is don't bring your men around.
Speaker 4: So this first of all, Russell is not a social
Speaker 4: person at all. Clearly everybody sees that. But rule number
Speaker 4: one is going to be a Halloween party and it's
Speaker 4: gonna be g strings and booty. Okay, no, no, Russell's
Speaker 4: gonna have enough booty at home not to be going
Speaker 4: to no party to look at no booty elsewhere? How
Speaker 4: about that? So we're we don't the husband there, and
Speaker 4: then when you go there, you don't take you don't
Speaker 4: stay there for long. You give you your hellos to Lisa,
Speaker 4: and that's who we're here for. And then we just
Speaker 4: kind of like, get a couple of drinks, take a
Speaker 4: couple of selfies with on your outfits or thet you know,
Speaker 4: what is it called costumes, and then you go about
Speaker 4: your Mary way. No one lingers at those parties, if
Speaker 4: you know what it is, unless you want to, and
Speaker 4: clearly that's not mean. So Lisa's come to a realization
Speaker 4: with Lenny, and we're glad that we see her now
Speaker 4: finally you know, clap on, clap off, and she finally
Speaker 4: gets it. Okay, the lights are on. That's good, But
Speaker 4: that's good. That's great because now she sees what she,
Speaker 4: you know, has been going through and what everyone else
Speaker 4: has been seeing. So she's she's moving forward and it's
Speaker 4: great to see her moving on and realizing her past.
Speaker 4: And you know, you saw the finale where her auntie
Speaker 4: and her mom were talking to her about how he
Speaker 4: treated them, and it's kind of like, what was that about?
Speaker 4: And you know, so I'm glad that she's realized that
Speaker 4: and hopefully, you know, she knows how to handle things
Speaker 4: moving forward.
Speaker 2: Yeah future, you know.
Speaker 1: Well, we're happy she got that clap instead of the
Speaker 1: other clap.
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, we don't want that clap, no, ma'am. So
Speaker 3: Russell is not allowed to go to those parties.
Speaker 4: It's not a he doesn't even want to go there.
Speaker 4: But when I go there and like, literally know what
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get, like proposition to have three four six sms.
Speaker 4: I'm too tired. I got things to do. Leasyusie and
Speaker 4: I think that we're clearly sat ohaking his head. This
Speaker 4: is what he loves it. He loves it. And this
Speaker 4: is why I think that we are very good, not
Speaker 4: because you know, we keep each other leveled in many ways.
Speaker 4: We're good here, we're good here. No one is craving nothing.
Speaker 4: We're good.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I mean the fridge is stocked.
Speaker 4: Don't you like my symbolisms. I'm so creative. Right, you're good, baby, baby,
Speaker 4: you are clap on, clap off, the fridge is stuck.
Speaker 4: Let's keep doing this. You are a one woman show.
Speaker 3: Now that although you're a one woman show, I will
Speaker 3: say this me and the fans.
Speaker 4: I'm a huge fan, yes, me and the fans.
Speaker 1: The fans and I the fans, and.
Speaker 3: I there did go proper English. I know that's right,
Speaker 3: proper English, Carlos, the fans and I.
Speaker 4: Yes, what class? You know? I was English? Like you know,
Speaker 4: I learned English real good.
Speaker 1: But no, I'm a college dropouts all good?
Speaker 4: Oh stop, are you serious?
Speaker 3: Oh honey, I dropped out a junior year because I
Speaker 3: got a job at B. E. T.
Speaker 4: Good.
Speaker 1: And I remember being in geology class.
Speaker 3: You know, in college you're gonna take some of these breakuences.
Speaker 3: And I remember being a geology class.
Speaker 4: Saying this is nothing me.
Speaker 3: Why am I in geology class when I have a job,
Speaker 3: thank you as a production assistant.
Speaker 1: Absolutely, I dropped at honey, for you, I'm good.
Speaker 4: Who needs Ivy League colleges anywhere at this point, to
Speaker 4: be honest, my son is not going to one, and
Speaker 4: I'm not trying to pay sixty thousand dollars for one.
Speaker 4: Like the education is very similar whether you go across
Speaker 4: the street to Miami Day College or there you go
Speaker 4: to you know who knows where. So yeah, things are
Speaker 4: changing in this world and I love it.
Speaker 3: No experience First, I have no regress and I paid
Speaker 3: off my student loan last year.
Speaker 1: Thank you sir, Thank you God. But no, you are
Speaker 1: a one woman show.
Speaker 3: However, the fans and I, we.
Speaker 1: Love the duo of you and Kiki. Oh, yes, you
Speaker 1: and Kiki, and listen, I love.
Speaker 4: Don't you guys want to see more of us together?
Speaker 3: I'm just about to say that because I listen, I
Speaker 3: love the relationship between Alexia and Marisol, like you want
Speaker 3: to see more the baby. Why are we seeing this
Speaker 3: dynamic more of us?
Speaker 4: So I mean, all I can say is look forward
Speaker 4: to the future hopefully, because I think that it's it's
Speaker 4: now people are seeing this connection. Listen, KICKI and I
Speaker 4: we're sisters and there's nothing that anyone can say or
Speaker 4: do to write to to separate us in that. In
Speaker 4: that sense, we are eyelands. We're from the same struggle.
Speaker 4: We have the resilience that no one could ever take
Speaker 4: away from us, and so those who try will fail
Speaker 4: badly because it's not gonna work. We will always see
Speaker 4: each other first as like what we are, before we
Speaker 4: try to get into the mess of like he says,
Speaker 4: she said, whatever, we will always be like a girl,
Speaker 4: the girl. Yeah, let's go get up. Wait till you see,
Speaker 4: Wait till you see the reunion. We share the same
Speaker 4: dressing room. I'm gonna start with that. I'm gonna start
Speaker 4: with that. We share the same dressing room and the
Speaker 4: queens are queening, and I'm gonna say something in Creole
Speaker 4: that my people will know it p that's it, okay,
Speaker 4: And I'm gonna say that because we're coming. It's it's
Speaker 4: It's gonna be good. And by the way, my best
Speaker 4: friend is still Nicole is still in the mixed baby okay,
Speaker 4: don't get don't get it twisted. Nichole is my BFF
Speaker 4: and Kiki is my sister.
Speaker 1: Period. Would you like to see Kiki as a full
Speaker 1: time house.
Speaker 4: Absolutely, She's got a story to tell. And it's funny
Speaker 4: because the two of us are Haitian by birth. She
Speaker 4: was in Haiti till she was a teenager. I was
Speaker 4: in Hatity till I was one. So the way that
Speaker 4: we connect is so different because it's not like, oh yeah,
Speaker 4: remember this little store next door. No, I don't know Haiti.
Speaker 4: So I get to learn from her, her from me,
Speaker 4: and it's gonna be a beautiful thing, hopefully in the
Speaker 4: future for you to see how we connect in a
Speaker 4: different level of like my stile of the experience versus
Speaker 4: her side, because Haiti to me is a beautiful place,
Speaker 4: but it also is a very hurtful place because I
Speaker 4: lost family there during the earthquake in twenty ten. So
Speaker 4: we bond in a very deep level. And that's the
Speaker 4: reason why it's like no one could ever check us
Speaker 4: for nothing that we are or not, because it's just
Speaker 4: not even it's not even normal, do.
Speaker 3: You because it's funny because when I watched the show,
Speaker 3: I do feel like they're trying to pit you two
Speaker 3: against each other.
Speaker 1: No, and I'm obviously not.
Speaker 4: It's just like I think, editing wise, there's just so
Speaker 4: much else going on there. It's not like when you're
Speaker 4: heard like are on the show. We don't have combative
Speaker 4: in anything, so it's kind of like, wait, there's something
Speaker 4: going on over there. There's a lot of look over
Speaker 4: here type of moment. Is that doesn't allow us to
Speaker 4: kind of like show the bond. But I think that
Speaker 4: everyone has realized the magic that it is, especially starting
Speaker 4: like the reunion. It's just this little brewing. It's gonna
Speaker 4: just brew itself into a beautiful cup of cappuccino, so
Speaker 4: just wait, wait for it, wait for it. It's happening. Period.
Speaker 3: Well that that just made my day because I've been
Speaker 3: advocating for that on Twitter, like I just love his
Speaker 3: duo and even when on this season when listen.
Speaker 1: I do love all the girls.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I was very disappointed in Lisa though, when
Speaker 3: you guys were on a trip and you know, listen,
Speaker 3: Kiki's funny and she's cool. But when Lisa was, you know,
Speaker 3: saying the microaggressions of like wait till the reunion.
Speaker 1: But even you being.
Speaker 3: There, like did you I feel like Kiky instantly knew,
Speaker 3: like you're trying to say, I'm being a attacking you
Speaker 3: till the reunion.
Speaker 4: Wait till the reunion because it's like even Andy gets involved. Okay,
Speaker 4: even Andy gets involved. So you'll see at the reunion
Speaker 4: how it's just kind of like because again, like Kiky's
Speaker 4: experience in growing up is very very fragile, right, So
Speaker 4: she grew she saw pictures about like her house like
Speaker 4: it was it wasn't even a house, poor thing, you know,
Speaker 4: it was literally she struggled in a way. I was
Speaker 4: one of six six children at that time when I
Speaker 4: had moved to France. We were in a two bedroom apartment.
Speaker 4: I struggled in a completely different way, but I was
Speaker 4: in a safe space, which is Paris, and you know,
Speaker 4: like so you get, you get, you know, the help
Speaker 4: from the government. It's just different from Kiki's. So Kiki
Speaker 4: saw that dog throwing food thing as like, wait, what
Speaker 4: are you trying to say, like just because they lived
Speaker 4: there doesn't mean they're not happy or then I fed right,
Speaker 4: And I didn't see it that way, because again, we
Speaker 4: come so our perspectives are different, and that's why some
Speaker 4: people are like, well, we don't need to Haitians. And
Speaker 4: one thing I'm gonna say right now and listen very clearly,
Speaker 4: this is for everyone. Why is it that when there's
Speaker 4: two beautiful black women on a show or in a
Speaker 4: room or whatever, and they're the only two amongst other
Speaker 4: people of different races, why do we need to choose
Speaker 4: and say, oh, her or her versus her and her.
Speaker 4: This is something in the beginning, the very beginning of
Speaker 4: the first season three where I started seeing comments like oh,
Speaker 4: they need to make KICKI this or or Gerdy this,
Speaker 4: and and you know, KICKI out at Gerty out. Why
Speaker 4: because now what you're gonna see is the most beautiful
Speaker 4: thing of sisterhood. And some other shows are not learning
Speaker 4: that properly yet. But you're stronger together. Obama said it,
Speaker 4: and I will repeat it, Stronger Together, and and Kiki
Speaker 4: and gig Baby, it's coming. It's gonna be amazing.
Speaker 1: That's a spin off.
Speaker 4: We needn't know about all that. I would love it.
Speaker 4: I mean, from your mouth to God's ears, you never know,
Speaker 4: but I mean I would love to see.
Speaker 1: I would love to see because.
Speaker 3: You do events and you you do everything in the
Speaker 3: beauty space. Yes, Kiki obviously is this international supermodel right,
Speaker 3: and there's something in that mix. I mean, I'm a producer.
Speaker 3: I'm just saying I see it and I will be
Speaker 3: here for it.
Speaker 4: Listen, I'm a Bravo baby. I want to say, at first,
Speaker 4: make sure I check on my want. We want to listen, honey,
Speaker 4: listen to me very closely. I mean, I think that
Speaker 4: anything is great as long as you show unity. You know,
Speaker 4: people love the mess message great. How about watching something
Speaker 4: when you come home from from from work or school
Speaker 4: and you've already been through the mess at work or
Speaker 4: school and you come home and say, wow, maybe I
Speaker 4: should do something different to create this kind of environment.
Speaker 4: What about that? What about aspirational? Inspirational That's what I'm about.
Speaker 4: And listen, if y'all get tired of that, trust me.
Speaker 4: My life is great. It is great as it is now,
Speaker 4: It'll be great as it is then. But the thing
Speaker 4: is that I'm all about love until you try to
Speaker 4: mess with me and then we got problems and you know,
Speaker 4: you got to push my button a couple of times
Speaker 4: and then it's like lego, you know, And that's what
Speaker 4: you saw with me, you know, you know last season
Speaker 4: it was kind of like, I'm trying to be nice
Speaker 4: to you girl. You don't want me to gratify your ass?
Speaker 1: Now, no we don't.
Speaker 3: But no, yeah, I appreciate the closeness between you and Kiki,
Speaker 3: and like you said, the fact that you two are
Speaker 3: Haitian Americans being able to like coexist and there shouldn't
Speaker 3: be a choice before before we move on to the
Speaker 3: rest of the season, Speaking of that, what are your
Speaker 3: thoughts on this whole Windy Necker thing on Potomac So.
Speaker 4: Sad, so sad, And I'm gonna say it exactly like
Speaker 4: I saw it. There's nothing else to it. Wendy was
Speaker 4: minding her business. Sorry, and Mekka, I sawry brother Khan
Speaker 4: looks amazing, beautiful. But I felt like maybe there was
Speaker 4: just a lot of people in the ear to be like,
Speaker 4: get it. That's how you're gonna get your moment, moment moment,
Speaker 4: And unfortunately she felt for it because it would have
Speaker 4: it would have been even more more beautiful to say, listen,
Speaker 4: there's a lot of brewing going on over here. But
Speaker 4: guess what, I'm gonna give you that benefit of the
Speaker 4: doubt and let's talk, sister. That was a missed opportunity
Speaker 4: for me. And now how do you make it right
Speaker 4: that people are on Wendy like just apologize or forgive her.
Speaker 4: You talk about my mama, We're gonna have problems for
Speaker 4: a long time, right talking about my husband, my children.
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna forgive you whenever people say to forgive you.
Speaker 4: So for me, it's kind of like, let time do
Speaker 4: the healing and it will heal. Wendy's a very she's
Speaker 4: a doctor, she's smart, she knows what she's doing. It
Speaker 4: will happen. It will happen. They're gonna let the guards down.
Speaker 4: But you know what, there's gotta be an apology directly
Speaker 4: to the mama.
Speaker 3: Sorry, no, I agree, I agree, and look I'm on
Speaker 3: Wendy side on this one, okay.
Speaker 1: And not to belabor the point, but what's funny is
Speaker 1: but not.
Speaker 4: As an amazing woman like you know. It's It's just it
Speaker 4: was a bad, bad decision. That's what it is. Good
Speaker 4: people make bad decision. That's it. That's it.
Speaker 3: And we love, we love. They're both queens. We love
Speaker 3: that guy exclusive for you. Because I never told anybody
Speaker 3: nor my brain drops this.
Speaker 4: I am a Raene drop too, but tell me, yes,
Speaker 4: Ray drop me and I'm Gerty five. Okay, boom, there
Speaker 4: we go, There we go.
Speaker 3: I developed a show a couple of years ago based
Speaker 3: on first generation Africans in Los Angeles. Mecca was a
Speaker 3: part of my cast, and Mecca.
Speaker 4: And she migrated her way to Patromac and this right.
Speaker 3: So when I saw this, I'm gonna tell me. One
Speaker 3: of my producers said, God, do you remember Ncca. She
Speaker 3: was a part of the cast for this show we
Speaker 3: were developing for v H one about again first generation
Speaker 3: Africans in America, and Mecca was a part of it.
Speaker 3: So the Necca that I saw on the casting tape
Speaker 3: and the Sizarel. She's funny and she's fabulous, So I
Speaker 3: was looking forward to seeing her on this and I'm
Speaker 3: so proud of her.
Speaker 4: And that's the problem. The thing is that she has
Speaker 4: a missed opportunity because then it derailed her focus on
Speaker 4: herself and her character and building herself up as one
Speaker 4: of the members of this group in Potomac and geared
Speaker 4: it towards the HETERATIONI nation towards Wendy, and now it's
Speaker 4: a disconnect. But they're going to get it back together.
Speaker 4: I know this. They're smart, they're beautiful. They will get
Speaker 4: it together. Promise. I see it in the future. Hopefully
Speaker 4: you do. I think so.
Speaker 1: I don't see it happen.
Speaker 4: That turns through, but I'll say this, yikes, it needs
Speaker 4: to happen to happen. And that's what Miami does really good.
Speaker 4: Say it to the people of the.
Speaker 3: The reason why Miami Housewise is one of the best
Speaker 3: Housewives franchises is because you girls fight hard and love
Speaker 3: heart and you don't belabor the issue carrying into the
Speaker 3: next season.
Speaker 1: Y'all did it at the reunion.
Speaker 4: Try not to. There's going to be lingering, little you know,
Speaker 4: and bruises right, and you know, giving it the example
Speaker 4: with Laursa, people are like, leave her alone, she doesn't
Speaker 4: want to be your friend. Don't be her friend, and
Speaker 4: it's kind of like, no, we bonded before, Like you
Speaker 4: don't understand how human relationships is like that. When you
Speaker 4: find a connection with someone, you're like, oh, I see
Speaker 4: you in this way, and then something happens and then
Speaker 4: you get hurt because you actually care some way, somehow
Speaker 4: about this person. That's the reason why you react, right,
Speaker 4: because you're hurt in some way when the person doesn't
Speaker 4: see it for what it is and that I just
Speaker 4: need you to boom boom boom for us to move forward.
Speaker 4: That's where then the issues begin. So you know, that's
Speaker 4: the relationship with me and Larsa. And at the reunion
Speaker 4: you'll see how we hash it out or not, we'll see,
Speaker 4: but that's what it is, and that's what these bombs
Speaker 4: go on and on forever because you try to find
Speaker 4: the benefit of the doubt and say to yourself, could
Speaker 4: she have meant it? Did she really do it on purpose?
Speaker 4: Maybe not? What you try your best and whatever happens
Speaker 4: after that is whatever happens after that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, And I'll say this again. I love Larsa.
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of the show. She's great for the show.
Speaker 3: I was extremely disappointed and Larsa for sharing your diagnosis
Speaker 3: with the girls prior to you having the opportunity to
Speaker 3: do it herself. So that was one thing for me,
Speaker 3: and then it just kept multiplying with and that was.
Speaker 4: The core of it. Is about the fact that I'm like,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna give you you probably mete it, you're bad, okay,
Speaker 4: And then it was the again, again, again again again,
Speaker 4: the perpetrating like perpetuating the whole situation. So anyway, you know,
Speaker 4: it's tiring, guys, Okay, it's tiring, But this is what
Speaker 4: life is all about. It's about these ups and downs.
Speaker 4: It's literally wavelengths, and you gotta take them as a come.
Speaker 1: But when you saw that episode, the one.
Speaker 4: Where she told, oh, like she give with everybody literally,
Speaker 4: I'm like, were you hurt? So hurt because as you see,
Speaker 4: I'm thinking people are saying, oh my god, no she
Speaker 4: met well, oh my gosh. You know that. The reason
Speaker 4: why we didn't say anything is because what hurt most
Speaker 4: was the fact that she asked them to keep the
Speaker 4: secret of her not keepping my secret. How are we
Speaker 4: gonna how we gonna do that?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 4: Oh, don't tell anybody, Okay, I want to tell. I
Speaker 4: want to tell TMZ Gerdy, don't worry about tell all
Speaker 4: twenty five of my friends at the party for the
Speaker 4: third day disappearance of my you know, Jordan's like it
Speaker 4: was kinda like, wait, but don't tell her. I told you.

Speaker 1: Not the five day disappearance good, no.

Speaker 1: Let's just say trip trip trip.
Speaker 4: Yes, trip, guys. I'm no I sweart, I promise, Oh
Speaker 4: my god, promise, guys. It's my English. Okay, stop listen.
Speaker 3: I've been with my appricant for nineteen years. I'm not
Speaker 3: too sure that I've got to throw a party because
Speaker 3: he was out of top for a couple of days.
Speaker 4: My love, okay, but disappearing a business trip.
Speaker 1: So they so he was founded after being on the
Speaker 1: milk cart.
Speaker 6: No, it was a.
Speaker 4: Business, it was a business. I wasn't there. I was
Speaker 4: in inviting, so I don't know the details. But he
Speaker 4: was on the business trip. He came back and he
Speaker 4: was like, hooray, can I get something? Yeah? No, but
Speaker 4: I mean I went you to say for Russell probably
Speaker 4: if he was gone, because we're never a part like
Speaker 4: it's true, so good. I'm I love a party. So parties, Yeah,
Speaker 4: I love it. You like it, I love it. We're
Speaker 4: not gonna stay on herb for too long. We'll move on.
Speaker 4: But what are your thoughts on.
Speaker 3: Larcess relationship with Marcus, because you obviously get to see
Speaker 3: way more than we as the fans.
Speaker 4: I don't. I don't not invited to the parties, so
Speaker 4: I don't know anything. I just know that they're you know,
Speaker 4: they're they're together now. They were separated in the super
Speaker 4: Bowl there was a thing, and then they're they're back together.
Speaker 4: I think, But I don't know. So I just don't know.
Speaker 4: But I think that if they're together, I'm sure they're happy.
Speaker 4: If they're not, I hope they wish them well. I don't.
Speaker 3: Allegedly they yes, they're back together after having a Super
Speaker 3: Bowl momenta to.
Speaker 4: You, I mean you know, I mean.
Speaker 3: Because instead of watching Usher, we were tweeting another Haitian as.
Speaker 4: Well, not Haitian. He is sure he is not Haitian.
Speaker 4: He's American. His father, Jason Drulo, is Haitian's father is
Speaker 4: what is his name, Edmond? I know the last thing, sitation,
Speaker 4: but I was told I was corrected back in high
Speaker 4: school that he was not Haitian. Sure his name of
Speaker 4: his father, he's a fourth. It's Usher, by the fourth, Edmond,
Speaker 4: your lives when I was okay, So when I was
Speaker 4: growing up in high school or in junior high, it
Speaker 4: was like a bad word to be Haitian, and people
Speaker 4: used to get beat up for being Haitian. The same
Speaker 4: with Jamaicans went through this. Haitian went through this Miami
Speaker 4: in the eighties was like oh my god. But anyway,
Speaker 4: the fact is that so maybe at that time people
Speaker 4: were like, no, he in Haitian. He so for me,
Speaker 4: I thought he was in Haitian. But anyway, Haitian. IM
Speaker 4: proud of it here. Good for you are sure, good
Speaker 4: for you? Love it? No, we love it, we love it,
Speaker 4: we love it. So he needs to claim that a
Speaker 4: little bit more. Let's hear something mixed with you know,
Speaker 4: booty music that would do I mean, you know see
Speaker 4: I mean then the super Bowl performance was like thirty
Speaker 4: nine songs in like two seconds. Yeah. I was like,
Speaker 4: you know, this is my confession. Every three seconds it
Speaker 4: was like a new song. I was like, that's a lot.
Speaker 4: We're doing a lot of Medali this yere. Hey, you
Speaker 4: guys are multi talented. He bought the whole Atlanta on
Speaker 4: stage that I really liked. He didn't forget his path.
Speaker 4: He bought Little Wayne, no, not the way little John,
Speaker 4: Little John and Lula Chris and then Alicia that first key,
Speaker 4: not the first key. But she's queen, she is. And
Speaker 4: we all make mistakes, remember that, so don't judge. There
Speaker 4: we go.
Speaker 3: So, was it a mistake that Michael Jordan doesn't want
Speaker 3: to meet his son's girlfriend, Larsa.
Speaker 4: Say allegedly because I don't know anything about that.
Speaker 1: Well, he's on the video, and he's it's been said
Speaker 1: on the show.
Speaker 3: And and she was on a podcast recently and and.
Speaker 1: It was it was she said it. She's never met him,
Speaker 1: but his mother likes her.
Speaker 4: But she never met him. After her divorce with Pippin
Speaker 4: good things clear, No, like she met him obviously because
Speaker 4: they were in the same team, right they wants championships
Speaker 4: and rings that were amazing the bulls? What is going on,
Speaker 4: mister King? Okay, technically you're right.
Speaker 3: Last did me Michael Jordan when her then husband Scottie Pippen, Yes,
Speaker 3: was playing.
Speaker 4: So you mean while she was with Marcus she was.
Speaker 4: She hasn't met him as the girlfriend title.
Speaker 3: She hasn't been reintroduced to Michael Jordan as his son's girlfriend. Okay,
Speaker 3: but she was introduced to him as his teammate's wife.
Speaker 4: Gotcha, What is the question? What is the question?
Speaker 3: Because you clarified ification, is that a red flag in
Speaker 3: a relationship? If you if you wol and Rousse up
Speaker 3: been and gat for twenty eight years, would it have
Speaker 3: been a red flag if you never met his father?
Speaker 4: Listen, If I was with Russell for twenty eight years
Speaker 4: and I haven't met his parents, then we're good. So
Speaker 4: my point is is that you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: It's kind of like we're doing good over here, you're
Speaker 4: doing good over there. So and they're grown, I mean
Speaker 4: they're real grown, grown, grow, grown, grown, right, so like
Speaker 4: Marsha's a grown ass woman in her fifties early fifties,
Speaker 4: and so that she doesn't need to meet anybody. She's
Speaker 4: making a decision for herself in her life. He's making
Speaker 4: this decision. He's over thirty, he's thirty two, and she's fifty.
Speaker 4: Grown boy, grown girl doing doing them? Do you boom boom,
Speaker 4: Carlos depauses are creating grama.
Speaker 1: I'm described by your beauty of the ribbon.
Speaker 4: Give me Audre have our ties, but thank you.
Speaker 3: The time has come for us to have a special
Speaker 3: guest join us.
Speaker 4: Speaking of beauty that he is.
Speaker 3: We have Russell in the building. Come join us, Russell.
Speaker 3: Can we get a chair for Russell?
Speaker 4: Oh my to get Andrew? Please? Will you sit here?
Speaker 4: See this is this an exclusive? Yesterday is indeed the
Speaker 4: first time that Rossell has ever sat down on camera
Speaker 4: to do an interview with me and us as a duo.
Speaker 4: So you get the exclude sip, you get the exclude this.
Speaker 1: Get this, slim, get this, yes, yes, I of.
Speaker 4: This for us.
Speaker 1: Such a beautiful couple.
Speaker 4: Seriously, all should we put him in the center of
Speaker 4: the hot seat.
Speaker 3: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage, one of
Speaker 3: the hottest husbands on Bravo and as a right now, baby,
Speaker 3: he is the be husband on Bravo that we all
Speaker 3: love and adore and we stand for give it up,
Speaker 3: y'all for Russell.
Speaker 4: He hates this, freaking out like I can't do this.
Speaker 1: So Russell, thank you.
Speaker 3: This is an exclusive because you guys have never done
Speaker 3: on a dual interview. So I'm honored that you decided
Speaker 3: to show up for your wife like we have seen.
Speaker 1: How nervous are you right now, Russell?
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just not a common thing for me.
Speaker 3: So when Gerdi came home and said, baby, I mean, Gerdy,
Speaker 3: heyby guess what the Bravo second has.
Speaker 1: Caught me and they wanted me to be of Miami.
Speaker 4: He was kind of like the call but it was
Speaker 4: it was, like I said, it was inevitable. I'm not
Speaker 4: going to tell you how it happened.
Speaker 1: But it was very kind of like it was meant
Speaker 1: to be.
Speaker 4: It was meant to be, kind of like it's it's time,
Speaker 4: it's time.
Speaker 3: But what did you think, Russell, Because you are a
Speaker 3: very private guy. You're Scorpio, and one thing I know
Speaker 3: about scorpio men who decide to be with somebody that
Speaker 3: is a star. They loved the background and they loved
Speaker 3: you know, supporting their partner but not being in the limelight.
Speaker 4: So was it challenging for you to know.
Speaker 3: That when you appear on a real Housewise franchise your
Speaker 3: life changes forever.
Speaker 6: Obviously it was a big decision, but it's you know,
Speaker 6: we've we've been together for so long that when she
Speaker 6: was approached, I think she mentioned it before. Years prior,
Speaker 6: she had been approached for, you know, insitively for different things,
Speaker 6: and we were like, no to it. I didn't want
Speaker 6: to do it. I don't want to have anything to
Speaker 6: do with that. But you know, I can't hold I
Speaker 6: couldn't hold her back anymore.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then those other projects were more about like
Speaker 4: that Jeff Flui is set up of like you're going
Speaker 4: to be the planner and we want to see everything behind.
Speaker 4: It was kind of like I have to be responsible
Speaker 4: for six employees being on camera. It was just too
Speaker 4: much at stake. The Housewife, you know, platform is just
Speaker 4: a balance of all of that, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: So you get a sprinkle to this, and don't sprinkle
Speaker 4: to that, and sprinkle this anything. Ensemble cast so it
Speaker 4: was more I think comfortable for me to start out
Speaker 4: on national TV being kind of like in this kind
Speaker 4: of format. And I had watched it before I knew
Speaker 4: the risk. But I'm like, we don't really have anything
Speaker 4: to hide, Like, so you don't you when you get
Speaker 4: on the show, you better not have skeleton in your
Speaker 4: closet and a lot of people do. And I'm kind
Speaker 4: of like, why are you signing the paperwork? But you know,
Speaker 4: we're we're We're up front and it is what it is.
Speaker 6: I figured, you know, I'm just gonna be a minor role,
Speaker 6: which I am.
Speaker 2: You know, I just stay in the background.
Speaker 6: I'll be good with that, right And and that's that
Speaker 6: was my mentality going in.
Speaker 3: And then you got the finale, right, which we'll get
Speaker 3: to a second two. But prior to that, you guys
Speaker 3: met in high school. So who approached who?
Speaker 4: Do you want me to say it?
Speaker 6: Well, okay, we met in high school, but we met
Speaker 6: we actually met in tenth grade.
Speaker 2: I played basketball, she was. She played volleyball.
Speaker 6: Her volleyball coach got me to play volleyball.
Speaker 2: So that's where we met.
Speaker 4: Not only you, but the entire basketball team. He's like,
Speaker 4: we need it was just two of us, markin and
Speaker 4: you yeah, okay, go ahead.
Speaker 6: So we played volleyball and that's where I met her.
Speaker 6: So we had an interaction there. However, she was with
Speaker 6: the star basketball player of the school at that time.
Speaker 6: We were in tenth grade.
Speaker 2: He was a senior.
Speaker 6: He was a scenior. So this is my friend. So
Speaker 6: I'm like, you know, yeah, I can't do anything here.
Speaker 4: You know, we could be So you were interested in
Speaker 4: me from tenth where you were like, okay like that.
Speaker 1: Of course you didn't know this knows this.
Speaker 4: He likes to say. He likes to say something like
Speaker 4: I didn't know the you know, the gravity of like
Speaker 4: I wanted to be with you in that way, you
Speaker 4: know what I mean. But you were with you.
Speaker 3: You were in tenth grade, You had the star basketball
Speaker 3: player as your boyfriend.
Speaker 4: He was a senior.
Speaker 1: He was You were like, I'm gonna like of course that.
Speaker 4: Guy was threatening. He was like he was not having it.
Speaker 4: It was very like, you know, like and he lived
Speaker 4: the block away from me, so only like eight minutes
Speaker 4: from each other. It was like crazy, yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 6: So we had an interaction there. You know, we messed
Speaker 6: with you know, played with each other.
Speaker 2: But that was it.
Speaker 4: What does that mean?
Speaker 1: Played with each other? Get it straight.
Speaker 4: No one was playing with you.
Speaker 2: Nothing, nothing, hands on nothing.
Speaker 4: Okay, sports sports.
Speaker 3: We played volleyball together, y'all were playing like tagau.
Speaker 4: We were practicing the same stadium thing, you know. So
Speaker 4: what's it called gym? I don't know my English? No,
Speaker 4: good girl, keep going.
Speaker 6: So then you know, once once that thatst he went
Speaker 6: to college.
Speaker 4: She cheated on me.
Speaker 1: Probably was like he cheated.
Speaker 4: Of course in college. I was like a little high
Speaker 4: school girl, so like I was like, okay, I know
Speaker 4: you're cheating. So we're you know, breaking up. And then
Speaker 4: comes the advanses, keep going.
Speaker 6: Well, eleventh grade passes, and then twelfth grade, which was,
Speaker 6: you know, the beginning of our last year.
Speaker 2: She I don't know how to you.
Speaker 6: You were in kind of in transition because he went
Speaker 6: away to college. Yes, so I knew there was you know,
Speaker 6: they were.
Speaker 2: Separated, or maybe they weren't. We didn't really know, but
Speaker 2: he was separated.
Speaker 4: It was kind of like, we're not going to make
Speaker 4: it already, know you're talking to Angie and done that.
Speaker 4: It was kind of like, so, I'm not sure.
Speaker 6: The beginning of the year a couple of times, I'm
Speaker 6: walking down the hallway.
Speaker 2: You know, there's a big school, very crowded.
Speaker 4: I'm minding my.
Speaker 2: Business and she business.
Speaker 6: She said, you know, she says hello to me, Hi, Russell,
Speaker 6: and he replied, everybody sees how she is. So she
Speaker 6: I'm like, oh, hi, you know, I tell her hi,
Speaker 6: and she says she didn't hear me, right, strike one.
Speaker 6: And it happens a couple of times over several days.
Speaker 2: So then she finally comes.
Speaker 6: You know, she couldn't stand that she wasn't getting the
Speaker 6: attention that she she thought she needed.
Speaker 2: So she came to me and she said.
Speaker 6: Hey, I When I say hi to you, she grabbed
Speaker 6: me when I say Hi, do you you better say
Speaker 6: hi back?
Speaker 4: And I'm like, because that's what humans do.
Speaker 2: Now, I see there's there's a there's an opportunity here.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 2: So the next day in my mind, I'm like, okay,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna show her.
Speaker 6: The next day, walking down the hallway, before she even
Speaker 6: sees me, I go up to her.
Speaker 2: And I give her a big hug and I say,
Speaker 2: how you know that I died?
Speaker 6: And then from that point it literally we're together every days.
Speaker 6: So good, yes, sir, I was like, there was some
Speaker 6: you know, we still had to figure things out.
Speaker 3: Did you ever tell the star basketball player in college?
Speaker 1: Like, yo, man, you.
Speaker 4: Wait, the sister week is me and now he's co
Speaker 4: playing what is it called teammate with my ex boyfriend.
Speaker 4: His sister, his younger sister is best friends with that guys,
Speaker 4: the sisters and sister, and he's over here playing with
Speaker 4: the ex boyfriend.
Speaker 2: Yeah. My sister's like, what's going on?
Speaker 4: Right, Susan's telling me this and I'm like, yeah, it's
Speaker 4: over and I'm with Brussel now boom like that. So
Speaker 4: it was it was a whole thing.
Speaker 2: So it was very weird. Yeah, she had because his.
Speaker 4: Sister would come over and you'll be like, how's rough,
Speaker 4: okaymazy okay, right, but he was so ob obviously.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: So so you know, there there was a moment in
Speaker 6: time there where it was kind of awkward because I
Speaker 6: knew I was going to run into him, you know
Speaker 6: at some point, which I did.
Speaker 2: And then you know, at that time, he was over.
Speaker 4: Three other babies, so mama's or whatever he relays in basketball.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you guys have been together for twenty eight years,
Speaker 3: so what is the secret to this long lasting relationship
Speaker 3: because you two still I don't know if the audience
Speaker 3: saw this, you too still flirt with each other and
Speaker 3: are so attracted to each other.
Speaker 4: Twenty eight years later, every day, like when he walked in,
Speaker 4: I was like, yes.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, honey, be so Russell.
Speaker 1: You may not know this.
Speaker 3: So before you walked in, she's giddy. She's Carlos So
Speaker 3: Russell's coming.
Speaker 4: He's so hot.
Speaker 1: I know he's fine. Anyway, what's my baby? What's my baby?
Speaker 4: Baby? Are you here?
Speaker 1: And I and I sat back for a second.
Speaker 3: I'm like, wow, sorry, but I was so amazed by
Speaker 3: Like you still get butterflies yes, for your husband twenty
Speaker 3: eight years later?
Speaker 1: Like what seriously? I think couples at home want to know.
Speaker 4: The cost seminar tourists coming. Forget Sierra's prayer.
Speaker 3: What is the girdy prayer for you to have this
Speaker 3: man who's super attractive, he loves you so much, and
Speaker 3: you still get butterflies in your.
Speaker 1: Stomach when you even like misching his name for us?
Speaker 4: I think is no ego When we argue with I
Speaker 4: think the egos come in right like it's like, oh
Speaker 4: you better, no, we have the dumbest argument over his
Speaker 4: water bottle placement in the car. No like that was.
Speaker 4: I was like, stop, drop the ego. So he has
Speaker 4: this water bottle jug so ugly, and he puts it
Speaker 4: right there next to where he drives. I have my
Speaker 4: juice that he made for me, my co press juice,
Speaker 4: and also another drink that can't fit anywhere else except
Speaker 4: for those two compartments. And he I throw his drug
Speaker 4: in the back. No, no, no, he wants his drug
Speaker 4: right there next to him, and I'm like, but you're
Speaker 4: not drinking it. So we get into this argument. I'm like,
Speaker 4: drop the ego, but it's ego the moment someone's like
Speaker 4: I'm the man, I'm supposed to do this, and people
Speaker 4: start role playing and thinking that you can't do this
Speaker 4: or you shouldn't do that because I'm the man or
Speaker 4: you're the woman. It's not gonna work. Drop the gender
Speaker 4: roles and drop the egos. You will see how much
Speaker 4: smoother life works. If I'm not home and something's gotta
Speaker 4: get cleaned or cooked, He'll be it's not even like
Speaker 4: can you please it? It's done. Those are his children,
Speaker 4: like drop the gender roles, as if like you're too
Speaker 4: good to do this or you're too good to say sorry.
Speaker 4: That is I think the biggest issue in relationships. And
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people who are divorced are
Speaker 4: probably like, damn, I could have worked that out, couldn't I?
Speaker 4: And then you know it's too late so for us.
Speaker 4: And another thing is that we don't use the D
Speaker 4: word ever. Is we never say I'm going to divorce
Speaker 4: you if you don't do this. You never threaten people
Speaker 4: like that, especially if you love them, go ahead.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we I mean from the beginning, we kind of
Speaker 6: knew that, hey, we wanted to be together, and you know,
Speaker 6: we she wanted to do one thing. We wound up
Speaker 6: staying home together and let's see how this this plays out.
Speaker 6: And when we decided, yeah, we're gonna.
Speaker 2: Make this official, get married, start a.
Speaker 6: Life together, we already knew. We already knew all these things.
Speaker 6: So it's never like we argue with each other and
Speaker 6: we're like, oh, I'm gonna leave you. That's never never
Speaker 6: even comes into the picture.
Speaker 4: It was always like, we're together forever, So now now
Speaker 4: what how do we navigate?
Speaker 2: So, like she said, egos are a big thing.
Speaker 6: Obviously everyone has disagreements, but you have to put your
Speaker 6: ego aside and you have to come to a compromise.
Speaker 6: I mean at the beginning of our marriage, you know,
Speaker 6: we start living together all the time, Oh you need to.
Speaker 2: Clean this, or you should clean that, or you need.
Speaker 4: To do this, or you need you're not doing enough
Speaker 4: of this or whatever.
Speaker 6: Like at some point someone's got to say, you know what, hey, okay, yeah,
Speaker 6: I'll do.
Speaker 4: This and want to do that. And that's actually what
Speaker 4: is sexier than ever. It's it's kind of like, damn,
Speaker 4: he's a take control type of man. I come home, like,
Speaker 4: you don't understand how much I was traveling for work.
Speaker 4: I was in Portugal one minute, then I'm in the
Speaker 4: cop or the next minute, like I can't keep the
Speaker 4: do this for the kids, and do you know do
Speaker 4: that for the kids. And so I'll come home and
Speaker 4: he's like, that's taking care of I got I got this,
Speaker 4: I got you, I got this. And that became such
Speaker 4: a thing of like, damn, he's really invested in us,
Speaker 4: in me, in himself. It's self proud at the end
Speaker 4: of the day to know that your family is good
Speaker 4: like that, you know. So, I think when people reshift
Speaker 4: their train of thought and how they see themselves. It's
Speaker 4: a it's amazing with the growth that they can do
Speaker 4: within themselves as well, because I look at him now
Speaker 4: and I'm like, it's weird, but it's like it gets better.
Speaker 4: I'm like, damn, Like he's such a growing to this
Speaker 4: man that I never even imagine I needed.
Speaker 6: And that that's all the that's all the you know,
Speaker 6: secondary stuff. Of course, you got to like this person.
Speaker 6: You gotta be friends with this person. You have to
Speaker 6: love this person. I mean, you have to be attracted
Speaker 6: to this person, and then all that other stuff you
Speaker 6: figure out. You have to be willing to figure out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you go ahead, I'm sorry, Yeah no.
Speaker 3: But the one thing that I do love about you
Speaker 3: is the fact that, as we talk about general roles,
Speaker 3: obviously there isn't unfortunately a lot of husbands who who
Speaker 3: are like I don't mind taking care of the kids, cooking, sometimes,
Speaker 3: cleaning some times, pick them up from school. You are
Speaker 3: a very active father, like extremely active, and your active husband.
Speaker 1: Do you believe that.
Speaker 3: In some marriages, like Gertie is saying, is that is
Speaker 3: a toxic masculinity, this sort of machoism are some of
Speaker 3: the reasons why you know, these relationships don't work because
Speaker 3: did you ever fall into that mindset of like.
Speaker 4: Well, you know, why am I doing this?
Speaker 3: Or did you were you always like I love her
Speaker 3: and this is what's best for the family.
Speaker 2: Like I said, you figure things out.
Speaker 6: Yes, Like I can't say specifically what was what, but yes,
Speaker 6: at some points I did have that mentality like why
Speaker 6: do you want me to do this?
Speaker 2: You know it's not my job, but as.
Speaker 6: You know, I don't want this stupid little thing to
Speaker 6: cause us to fracture in a way that we're not
Speaker 6: going to be together because I want to be with her,
Speaker 6: you know, So you have to make that decision. Is
Speaker 6: this stupid little thing, you know, worth it to fight
Speaker 6: with this person all the time.
Speaker 4: And we're lucky that we have parents that are still married.
Speaker 4: His fat father and mother I have been married now
Speaker 4: fifty years. We just celebrated them this week. My parents
Speaker 4: are over fifty, you know, so we have good role models.
Speaker 4: And his father is in the kitchen cooking, his mom
Speaker 4: will be cleaning, and they you know, vice versa my parents.
Speaker 4: My father does a cooking and the cleaning. My mother
Speaker 4: is not that type. Very fashionable though, but you know,
Speaker 4: everyone finds their niche in the household. You know, It's
Speaker 4: so funny because look, when I was traveling and doing
Speaker 4: all these events, he was holding it down. Now I'm
Speaker 4: home a lot more because I've chosen to be more
Speaker 4: present from my family and so forth. So now I'm like,
Speaker 4: what do you want for dinner? But do you want
Speaker 4: to It's I'm back to where, you know, the housewife role.
Speaker 4: So it all works out. But once you drop the
Speaker 4: ego and just are a team player, because you know,
Speaker 4: you want to sleep good at night, wake up in
Speaker 4: the morning good, you know, like happy wife, happy life,
Speaker 4: for real, for real. You know, we are the matriarch,
Speaker 4: and we are you know, the stability of a household
Speaker 4: in many ways. And and for us to get that
Speaker 4: right hand, that says I got you. What do you need?
Speaker 4: The whole thing? It just helps support that system and
Speaker 4: it creates a better, stronger together.
Speaker 3: So no, and we saw that because obviously, I mean,
Speaker 3: listen for you to showcase of the world your breast
Speaker 3: cancer diagnosis and to to see the the fear that
Speaker 3: you had on your face in the earlier part of
Speaker 3: the season when.
Speaker 1: You got the news.
Speaker 3: Right, yes, talk to me about the moment that you
Speaker 3: heard the news and the thought process and having to
Speaker 3: tell your husband.
Speaker 4: He was there with me for the whole part. I
Speaker 4: wouldn't even have a phone call without him. So when
Speaker 4: my doctor called me, my college just called me. I
Speaker 4: was in Sant Bart's and that was when he was
Speaker 4: about to tell me that I had the first There
Speaker 4: were two types of cancers that I had, by the way,
Speaker 4: so there was the first one. I'm like, stop, I
Speaker 4: need to merge Rustle. Nothing happens before you got the news.
Speaker 4: You want to wow. Of course she was absolutely.
Speaker 6: She went in for her mammogram and then you know,
Speaker 6: which she does regularly, but this time they asked her
Speaker 6: to come back. So I remember during that phase, I
Speaker 6: was bringing her and in my mind, I'm like, this
Speaker 6: is weird.
Speaker 2: You know, we're going back multiple times.
Speaker 4: He never thinks.
Speaker 6: But then I'm like, you know, everything fine, There's going
Speaker 6: to be nothing, just like it always is.
Speaker 2: So then she was out of town.
Speaker 6: And she calls me and I could hear it in
Speaker 6: her voice something was wrong, and she's like, oh uh,
Speaker 6: you know here doctors such and such as on the
Speaker 6: line emerging, And so I knew right away what it was.
Speaker 4: But we didn't know how about you know, like you
Speaker 4: just got worse and worse and worse and worse and worse.
Speaker 4: But he was there every step of the way. It's
Speaker 4: like he didn't go to work for a month, like
Speaker 4: literally like every over a month. It was just unbelievable.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So, I mean many people go.
Speaker 4: And he hates to take the credit, he says, which
Speaker 4: is true. Like you say, everyone goes through it and
Speaker 4: all over the world.
Speaker 2: You know that's true. So you just you got to
Speaker 2: keep moving forward.
Speaker 4: Like he doesn't like this title of like he's the
Speaker 4: best husband in the world because everybody's doing it. If
Speaker 4: my mother I'm not even going to say the words,
Speaker 4: but like my father would step in his We see
Speaker 4: this every day. So he hates the fact that it's
Speaker 4: kind of like this.
Speaker 3: But I disagree with that, and I'm going to say
Speaker 3: this and this is no disrespect. We unfortunately don't see
Speaker 3: it every day, and we unfortunately, you know, don't see
Speaker 3: a lot of husbands, yes, drop what they're doing and
Speaker 3: to be there for their wife. So listen, I I
Speaker 3: love that you feel like I'm a husband and this
Speaker 3: is what I'm supposed to do. Unfortunately, there are tons
Speaker 3: of wives who have husbands that don't do the necessary parts.
Speaker 3: And the reason why we appreciate you and all the
Speaker 3: husbands in the world who have who have done what
Speaker 3: you're doing is because we even don't even see this
Speaker 3: a lot on reality television. On my show Love and
Speaker 3: Matter tians Bill Kimmy.
Speaker 4: Oh Kimmy, Yes, honestly, she was first. I gotta tell you,
Speaker 4: I got to the pops. I have to because I
Speaker 4: remember I think I may have called you in the room.
Speaker 4: I watched it and I was like, who could I
Speaker 4: ever do that? Like, and then look what happened to me?
Speaker 4: And I was like, she can do it. I can
Speaker 4: do it. And I'm telling you right now it was
Speaker 4: because I kiddy, I'm getting oh my god, I even
Speaker 4: reached out to you or her and even her I
Speaker 4: can't remember how it was like wow, PTSD like right
Speaker 4: now because I hate going back there, right, but I
Speaker 4: remember seeing the scene. You were the first one to
Speaker 4: do it, and then I was like could I ever even? Wow?
Speaker 4: How did she do?
Speaker 5: How could she?
Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden it was my turn,
Speaker 4: and I'm like, we're doing this damn thing. We're gonna
Speaker 4: freaking do it, and production. Thank you to people like
Speaker 4: you that stayed in the back. You gave the respect
Speaker 4: you weren't in It was kind of like, just let
Speaker 4: it play and act as if you were not in
Speaker 4: the room. And that was the courage that I got
Speaker 4: to be able to just continue with that scene. I
Speaker 4: was breaking. I was like I wanted to move, and
Speaker 4: then I look back, I'm looking at the hair and
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, just stick it out. Stick it out.
Speaker 4: This feels safe. All we need is a safe, safe space.
Speaker 4: All we need is to save space and people some
Speaker 4: people don't understand that. So when we talk about sharing
Speaker 4: it with the world, and because you don't see it enough,
Speaker 4: it is happening. But the problem is that some people
Speaker 4: make it seem like it's the play that we have
Speaker 4: and shame people that have cancer and you look weird.
Speaker 4: Why did you shake your head? Oh why don't you
Speaker 4: put a wig on? Because I have hot flashes every
Speaker 4: twenty seconds. That's why I have a sorry, that's why
Speaker 4: I have a fan on me. But people don't see
Speaker 4: the little things. Oh why don't you cover your scar? No, honey,
Speaker 4: this is a battle scar. That's my pride. People ask
Speaker 4: this dumb questions without thinking like this maybe a reason
Speaker 4: let me let her give her a safe space. And
Speaker 4: that's really big, and that's the reason why you don't
Speaker 4: see it often.
Speaker 3: No, it is big, and and thank you for sharing
Speaker 3: that too, because it just it takes you to a
Speaker 3: place that you, just like you said, you don't think
Speaker 3: is going to happen to you. And not only do
Speaker 3: you not think it's going to happen to you, not
Speaker 3: while I'm filming a reality shop.
Speaker 4: We found out a week before. So the first episode
Speaker 4: you see new Horizontals party and people are coming up
Speaker 4: to me with some bs about you did this to
Speaker 4: me and you call me fake. It's kind of like, girl,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go get a drink over there because I
Speaker 4: can't deal with this minute detail when I'm dealing with
Speaker 4: a monster here, you know. But when you're not ready
Speaker 4: to share, no one could tell you what to do,
Speaker 4: when to do it, where to do it. It's just
Speaker 4: a thing that's just kind of like it feels good
Speaker 4: now now it doesn't. So you know when people say
Speaker 4: stage the dropping the news to cancel, do Larensa? Of
Speaker 4: course I didn't. Of course, it's just emotional reaction of
Speaker 4: like this is what I'm going through. You know, so
Speaker 4: you'll see, you know, the reunion. We talk about all
Speaker 4: those those kinks, you know, and how you know, we
Speaker 4: try to we try to figure things out, you know,
Speaker 4: but it's it's it's a lot, it's a lot. The
Speaker 4: reunion is gonna be a lot for people to watch.
Speaker 3: And yeah, yeah, well, speaking of things being hard to watch, obviously, Russell,
Speaker 3: we saw the finale. It was hard for you to
Speaker 3: watch your wife have a petty argument and again, we
Speaker 3: love Larsa. We'll see what happened to bring I was
Speaker 3: so shocked at the level of insensitivity that she displayed
Speaker 3: during that conversation, knowing that you are going through this
Speaker 3: battle the camera campaigning to Russell watching you, protecting you
Speaker 3: from a distance, and then finally saying enough is enough.
Speaker 3: So Russell talk to us about being in that moment
Speaker 3: and what you were seeing that led you to be like,
Speaker 3: this ship has to stop.
Speaker 6: I didn't know what they were talking about, so I
Speaker 6: was I was a distance away talking to someone else,
Speaker 6: having a conversation, and then I heard things piping up,
Speaker 6: getting louder, getting louder. So that's when I, you know,
Speaker 6: started focusing in see what was going on, and you know,
Speaker 6: the women, they get into arguments often.
Speaker 2: I guess.
Speaker 6: When I saw her, you know, take her hat off,
Speaker 6: and then I heard a couple of things that I.
Speaker 2: Thought were, you know, over the top.
Speaker 6: So I went over there with the My only intention
Speaker 6: of going over there was to get Gerty away.
Speaker 4: Once we've come off, he's like, well, what's going on
Speaker 4: over I.
Speaker 2: Didn't say anything to anyone else. I was talking to Gerty.
Speaker 6: I said, what are you doing, Let's get get out
Speaker 6: of here, and she got up, We're going away, And
Speaker 6: then a certain individual kept pursuing. That's the only reason
Speaker 6: why I said what I said to that individual, and
Speaker 6: I wouldn't have said anything else to her, but she
Speaker 6: kept talking to Gerty and she even was talking to me.
Speaker 2: So I tried to, you know, keep my composure and
Speaker 2: just get Gerty out of there. And that was it.
Speaker 2: That's all that happened.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we're not those people. We don't like mess. We
Speaker 4: don't like mess, you know. But you know, obviously remove
Speaker 4: yourself in the situation if you have to. What the
Speaker 4: first That's all that was my especially considering I was
Speaker 4: having literally the next.
Speaker 6: Day, like this is not important, this energy is not good.
Speaker 2: Yeah for you, right, now.
Speaker 4: But you know, it's so funny because as much as
Speaker 4: people say that to me, and it's true, you're right
Speaker 4: because you want to try to keep yourself in a
Speaker 4: zen place because you know, stress does not cause cancer
Speaker 4: rule number one, but it can it can contribute to
Speaker 4: your environment of health around a healing with cancer. So
Speaker 4: for me, what I've learned now is that I will
Speaker 4: release what no longer serves me, period and a story
Speaker 4: I don't like something. Hey, I don't like that. Period.
Speaker 4: My housekeeper just recently let her go why took a
Speaker 4: bag of cookies? It wasn't about the cookie. It was
Speaker 4: about the fact that, honey, you signed an NDA. You
Speaker 4: know I have seventeen cameras in my house. You know
Speaker 4: damn well that we saw what you did last summer. Okay,
Speaker 4: and we asked you, I'm asking you do to your face, Well,
Speaker 4: nobody is this cookie because I know it's not cookie.
Speaker 4: Only nobody else eats it. And she says, oh, I
Speaker 4: don't know. It was just there. And I say, you sure,
Speaker 4: because if you will like the cookie, I'll get more
Speaker 4: cookies for us. And it's okay, No, it wasn't me,
Speaker 4: rewind yep, she and here's the chewing, so liars don't
Speaker 4: release what no longer serves me ain't happening. And that's
Speaker 4: my new way of life. So get ready for Season
Speaker 4: what seven because yeah, I'm not I'm not. I give grace,
Speaker 4: but I'm not giving all of my grace any longer.
Speaker 4: Cut it, cut it, cut the cancer out, symbolically, cut
Speaker 4: it out.
Speaker 1: Are you too able to forgive Larsa for her behavior?
Speaker 4: You'll see at the reunion how things evolve. He's not
Speaker 4: even he's not even part of it. Like you know,
Speaker 4: he said what he said, which was literally, don't be disrespectful.
Speaker 4: Be respectful. That's it. There's no there's no you know,
Speaker 4: discussion between her and my husband. Okay, so it's between
Speaker 4: her and I women to women, and at the reunion
Speaker 4: we definitely have it out. So you will see that
Speaker 4: discussion and how it plays out.
Speaker 3: Do you think people and again I again I'm on
Speaker 3: Twitter sometimes I'm not basically you protecting your your wife?
Speaker 3: Are are are there people or even Larsa? Are they
Speaker 3: trying to say like, oh my god, you spoke to
Speaker 3: a woman this way.
Speaker 4: And the first thing that I ever saw, we multiple
Speaker 4: things I've seen, is like you know, I'm usually people say,
Speaker 4: I usually don't like men in you know, business, And
Speaker 4: the way that Russell handled it was not. He wasn't
Speaker 4: like back and forth trying to elevate. He literally removed me,
Speaker 4: and he says, just be respectful, like just consider the
Speaker 4: situation timing like queuing captain, and that was it. Everyone's
Speaker 4: praising him for the way he handled it is what
Speaker 4: I've seen.
Speaker 2: I didn't feel good, you know, doing that. I didn't
Speaker 2: feel good afterwards doing that. Yeah, oh you didn't because
Speaker 2: I don't. I shouldn't have to. You shouldn't talk to anyone,
Speaker 2: you know, a woman that way. You know.
Speaker 6: I don't know how I was put in that situation
Speaker 6: like that person should have seen it.
Speaker 2: I was already taking.
Speaker 4: Gerty away, yeah, and it was over usually that That's.
Speaker 2: How I felt. It was like why yeah, So that's
Speaker 2: why I kept it as it was.
Speaker 6: I wasn't gonna do anything or you know, say anything derogatory.
Speaker 6: That's not no, no, I just wanted to get Girty away,
Speaker 6: yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: And I even even even with that, you know, that's
Speaker 2: all I did.
Speaker 4: I still, you know, because he's not that guy. He's
Speaker 4: literally you know, this is not where this is not
Speaker 4: not who we are. So I just I was glad
Speaker 4: that he was just what he was and that's it.
Speaker 4: And but people have praised the way he tried to
Speaker 4: obviously just you know, protect me. So yeah, protect that's it,
Speaker 4: you know, and yeah, that's it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, no iron people who felt that like and again
Speaker 3: I worked on shelves where sometimes the men insert themselves unprovoked.
Speaker 1: And I felt like you were defending your wife.
Speaker 3: And I was happy, even docorn Cole saying, that's my
Speaker 3: best friend, Gerdi. These five minutes leave her alone.
Speaker 4: So I do appreciate that around me.
Speaker 3: And look, the most beautiful moment of this whole season
Speaker 3: was the shaving of the head and seeing Russell how
Speaker 3: you were there for her even in that sense, and
Speaker 3: that's listen. I know you don't like compliments, and I
Speaker 3: respect it, but again, yeah, it's it goes to show
Speaker 3: you the the love that you have for your best
Speaker 3: friend who also is your wife and the mother of
Speaker 3: your children. And to see the moment of you cutting
Speaker 3: the braids and then shaving it off, were you were
Speaker 3: you nervous like going into into that moment knowing that
Speaker 3: this was going to be captured because it's.
Speaker 1: Such listen all the respect.
Speaker 3: You didn't have to show that to us because it's
Speaker 3: such an intimate moment.
Speaker 6: I know, was I nervous. I wasn't nervous. I just wanted,
Speaker 6: you know, throughout everything. I just wanted to make things
Speaker 6: for her easier, you know, and make her, you know,
Speaker 6: as comfortable as possible throughout everything.
Speaker 2: So if she, you know, she won.
Speaker 6: She made the decision, you know, with with my advice
Speaker 6: and with others advice, that she should cut her hair
Speaker 6: before starting the chemo, because.
Speaker 4: That was actually I really wanted to do that. That
Speaker 4: was very wary for me to have control.
Speaker 6: Yeah, she didn't want to have to see her hair
Speaker 6: falling out a way and go through that process.
Speaker 2: Just let's just shave it and then you don't have
Speaker 2: to deal with that.
Speaker 4: Eighty percent of people shave their head before chemo actually,
Speaker 4: so for those reasons, right, of course, it's about control,
Speaker 4: like and me being a control freak. I'm a party
Speaker 4: planner and I'm the top party planner of the world,
Speaker 4: and I'm sitting here like, damn, I'm being told when
Speaker 4: to go to this, when to do this blood work.
Speaker 4: All I just go in and out of consciousness is
Speaker 4: what I like to call it in doctor's deportments and
Speaker 4: lay down and do this and you know, take this pill.
Speaker 4: And I'm like, I can't. I'm in a box. They
Speaker 4: put me in a box. And this whole I thought
Speaker 4: for myself to be out of the box when I
Speaker 4: came to this country, and now I'm being put back
Speaker 4: into a box. I'm like, no, I'm gonna me, pick me,
Speaker 4: pick me, pick me. I'm gonna cut my hair. I'll
Speaker 4: do that one. So it was about controlling something in
Speaker 4: this whole narrative. Look at you now, look at me now,
Speaker 4: cancer free, cancer free. I just did my sixth month.
Speaker 4: I did my six month memmo grandma to sound and
Speaker 4: that was also a lump in my throat. So every
Speaker 4: sixth month. But people again don't understand, is that it's
Speaker 4: not like, oh, life is amazing. Life is amazing, and
Speaker 4: you won't leave it out loud. But every sixth month
Speaker 4: is a test of time that says knock knock, okay,
Speaker 4: nobody's there. Cancer is not there. So it's every six
Speaker 4: month that I have to hold my breath. You know,
Speaker 4: I'm on hormone therapy. I get shots every month, I
Speaker 4: take pills every day having a hysterectomy in a couple
Speaker 4: of days, in two days, you know, so it's not
Speaker 4: never over. I have my scars to prove everything that
Speaker 4: I do. It's like, oh, yeah, I have cancer. Yeah
Speaker 4: I forgot about that.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 4: It's always a reminder. So it's never over. But I
Speaker 4: don't victimize myself in that way at all, because I
Speaker 4: feel like it's like I'm standing here and I'm rocking
Speaker 4: this ball head and people are asking me, am I
Speaker 4: keeping it or not? At the reunion, I answered that question.
Speaker 1: Okay, that'd be one of my questions.
Speaker 4: So the reunion, I answered that question, and yeah, it's
Speaker 4: it's a girty two point zero and it's amazing. It's
Speaker 4: really amazing. I never thought it would be who I
Speaker 4: am today, what I am today, and it's just an evolution.
Speaker 4: It's no.
Speaker 3: I have to say this about you at the end
Speaker 3: of the day, as a huge fan of yours, when
Speaker 3: I watched your first season and you were this spit
Speaker 3: fire firecracker who just like who owned the room and
Speaker 3: has so much confidence, it makes me so damn happy
Speaker 3: to see your confidence. Did o waiver you came into
Speaker 3: this room being girty?
Speaker 4: Oh no, no, one puts in the corner.
Speaker 3: Hoey because answer and again this is basically you know,
Speaker 3: you know my mom had breast cancer, she passed away
Speaker 3: because she decided to do her situation differently, and then
Speaker 3: seeing Kimmy have cancer, so I know that it can
Speaker 3: make you tire and exhausted and all those things. But
Speaker 3: I have to say to you, miss Thing, you did
Speaker 3: not skip a beat. You are so damn beautiful. You
Speaker 3: are rocking the shaved head. I listen me personally, keep
Speaker 3: it that way. You look so good. And you did
Speaker 3: not allow this to taint your personality. And one thing
Speaker 3: I know for sure being this health not that I am.
Speaker 3: Your happiness is also a healing factor.
Speaker 4: In all of this release, but no longer in every
Speaker 4: way one hundred percent is true. Yeah, and surround yourself.
Speaker 4: You know your vibe. This is a tribe. Tribe is
Speaker 4: your vibe? Baby, Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And I'm doing your
Speaker 4: day by day. I'm trying to be selfish. I mean
Speaker 4: that's the rule. First thing that Martina who had cancer twice,
Speaker 4: Julia's wife on the show, she said, you gotta be
Speaker 4: selfish when you want to be alone, just say so,
Speaker 4: I want to be alone, like don't don't just stop
Speaker 4: wasting time being graceful and do just cut it, you know.
Speaker 4: So that's why that's and I am that person. It's
Speaker 4: just that I with my job, I'm a nurturer. So
Speaker 4: it's a balance of like bitch, gurty nice curty bitch.
Speaker 4: So you're gonna so I snap sometimes and then I'll
Speaker 4: be like graceful and then you know, So it's interesting.
Speaker 4: So you never know what you're gonna get. Well, what
Speaker 4: are we going to get next from the two of you?
Speaker 3: Is any anything that you guys have going on businesses
Speaker 3: anything else?
Speaker 4: Yes, so you are featuring. This is definitely my new
Speaker 4: amazing project. And this is like a life change because
Speaker 4: with cancer and it's some mutation. So my type of
Speaker 4: cancer is not genetic, it's a mutation. So I'm like,
Speaker 4: I'm looking at my sisters. They're all healthy, they're all natural.
Speaker 4: And I was like perming my hair and doing all
Speaker 4: this stuff, and then look what happened to me. So
Speaker 4: I'm looking at the preventive ways in which I want
Speaker 4: to live my life moving forward. And so I said,
Speaker 4: it's gotta be from the inside out. So the first
Speaker 4: thing I said myself is what am I doing to
Speaker 4: my hair, So you know, I started evaluating that. And
Speaker 4: also then I said, what am I drinking? What is
Speaker 4: it that I can do? That's something that is a
Speaker 4: huge impact. And we're made up of water pretty much.
Speaker 4: And I started looking into the water, and if I
Speaker 4: tell you the findings I found. So I started digging,
Speaker 4: digging deeper, and we partnered up with a company and
Speaker 4: we have a sharehold with a company called Miami Alkaline Water.
Speaker 4: And this is the water. Not only do we have
Speaker 4: alkaline water, we got CBD water, and we have hydrogen
Speaker 4: alkaline water, which is the top of the world level
Speaker 4: of water. So we are not playing games and it
Speaker 4: is a game changer. The first thing that happened to
Speaker 4: me when I had chemo was that we're like, you
Speaker 4: need to drink alkaline water. I started researching that and
Speaker 4: then when I found hydrogen acaline water, I was like,
Speaker 4: we're taking it to the next level. So literally your
Speaker 4: house system, the water system in your house, fully making
Speaker 4: that what I like to call kosher, which we are also,
Speaker 4: by the way, the water's culturecause you got to put
Speaker 4: the minimals back in the in the at the anti occidents,
Speaker 4: so we are literally in the purest water environment ever,
Speaker 4: and that starts with inside and to me, people ask
Speaker 4: how I'm lowing, people asking why I'm so healthy and
Speaker 4: bubbling because it's in the water. No, do your research.
Speaker 4: Do your research.
Speaker 3: So not to cut you off, I'm vegan. I've been
Speaker 3: vegan for seven years.
Speaker 4: So no, listen, I would be shipping a list. Shoot
Speaker 4: me a box please, types of water, honey.
Speaker 3: No, so I've been vegan for seven years. Yes, because
Speaker 3: I take my health very seriously. And again, I could
Speaker 3: do a whole episode about that because the whole like
Speaker 3: meat and water is definitely a big component fill to
Speaker 3: the water. But people don't know about alkaline water, natural
Speaker 3: spring water and alto the importance of hydrogen hydrogen. And
Speaker 3: so I started Russell for I think the past four
Speaker 3: months yep, only drinking hydrogen water. And I have a
Speaker 3: hydrogen water bottle that infuses is hydrogen inside of my
Speaker 3: alkaline water because I only drink alkaline water.
Speaker 1: I'm drinking that for seven years.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 4: And so it's in the skin, honey, look well, thank you,
Speaker 4: thank you, thank you amazing skin.
Speaker 1: So I'm telling you, and one thing about me, I don't.
Speaker 3: Like to perpetuate my my health right on others because
Speaker 3: you know, but so the only thing I will say
Speaker 3: to you.
Speaker 4: For sure you are correct. Everything we eat, everything we
Speaker 4: cook with. There's water everywhere. And what do one in
Speaker 4: three people have cancer? One in three? If I show
Speaker 4: you this website and you put your zip code in
Speaker 4: and you'll see how many arsenic contaminants. I mean, our
Speaker 4: neighborhood alone has seventy seven. And I was like, thank you, no,
Speaker 4: thank you. Why do we have cancer? I think I
Speaker 4: think it could potentially have possibly allegedly be in the
Speaker 4: water too. And I'm going to be drinking the purest
Speaker 4: water out there, and God please hopefully that's the answer
Speaker 4: to many of thing that will you know, be on
Speaker 4: a healthier path.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm so damn proud of you too. No, seriously, no, seriously,
Speaker 3: And I do mean this again. I lost a mother
Speaker 3: do the breast cancer. And if I can just tell people,
Speaker 3: especially in our community, in the black community, one, I.
Speaker 4: Mean extra you know, deaths in the black community than
Speaker 4: it is in the white community. Lack of education, lack
Speaker 4: of information, lack of resources, It's on and on and
Speaker 4: on and on and on. So we need to literally
Speaker 4: be preventive health insurance. Please, before you buy anything else
Speaker 4: that you don't need, get the health insurance please, and
Speaker 4: make sure it comes with the breast cancer mammograms ultrasound
Speaker 4: because your kids need you.
Speaker 1: We need you, Yes, you need you, and y'all need this.
Speaker 4: Okay, y'all know.
Speaker 3: Seriously, Alkali dot Com, Russell and Gertie, I am immensely
Speaker 3: happy for the two of you.
Speaker 4: I mean seriously being together twenty eight.
Speaker 3: Years, having two beautiful boys, and being together throughout this
