0:03
Speaker 1: Reality with the King is hosted by me, Carlos King.
0:06
Speaker 1: I'm an executive producer who have produced some of your
0:10
Speaker 1: favorite shows from the Real Housewives of Atlanta, New Jersey,
0:13
Speaker 1: and my own creation, the Love and Marriage franchise and
0:17
Speaker 1: Bell Collective. Every episode, we recap reality television from the
0:23
Speaker 1: Real Housewives franchise to The Bachelor or Selling Sunset. in
0:27
Speaker 1: addition to celebrity guests, whether in the unscripted space or
0:31
Speaker 1: scripted as well.
0:36
Speaker 2: All right.
0:37
Speaker 1: So now is the time to get into love and
0:39
Speaker 1: marriage Huntsville. I want to apologize to the raindrops and,
0:45
Speaker 1: you know, the entire Monday Night Live-ers from last week.
0:50
Speaker 1: We had a very... Baby, they were cussing me out.
0:53
Speaker 1: They were so mad that we did not spend enough
0:56
Speaker 1: real estate on Love and Marriage Huntsville. As a moderator,
0:59
Speaker 1: I take full responsibility. In our defense, though, we had
1:03
Speaker 1: two shows the night before, and it was past 9.30,
1:07
Speaker 1: and I wanted to make sure that my talent got
1:09
Speaker 1: home safely. Claudia had a flight, and I just wanted
1:12
Speaker 1: to make sure they were good. So my apologies. So
1:15
Speaker 1: that's why right now we are getting into Love and
1:18
Speaker 1: Marriage Huntsville. The scene that I want to start with
1:21
Speaker 1: first is, is a scene that occurred between... Who's the
1:29
Speaker 1: first one we have, Chris, up to bat? Tisha and Marcel,
1:32
Speaker 1: thank you.
1:33
Speaker 2: It's a real show.
1:35
Speaker 1: So Tisha and Marcel had a conversation about meeting Arianne,
1:43
Speaker 1: and they were talking about their first impressions of her, right?
1:48
Speaker 3: Right.
1:50
Speaker 1: Tisha said, I don't know how to refer to her.
1:53
Speaker 1: Is she the baby mama? The girlfriend? What do we
1:57
Speaker 1: call her? They also commented on the fact that they
2:01
Speaker 1: felt Arianne was trying to diss them by talking about,
2:06
Speaker 1: you know, the real estate they were doing. And Marcel
2:09
Speaker 1: made a comment about finally she's out of the sidelines.
2:14
Speaker 1: She's no longer part of Martel's drafts. She, you know,
2:18
Speaker 1: is part of the starting lineup now. So they made
2:21
Speaker 1: all this commentary. Tisha also mentioned that she doesn't know
2:25
Speaker 1: where to go from here because Arianne destroyed a family.
2:30
Speaker 1: And Marcel encouraged Tisha. It takes more than just her
2:35
Speaker 1: to destroy marriage and to give her a chance. Starting
2:38
Speaker 1: with you, Claudia, what are your thoughts on this particular conversation?
2:43
Speaker 1: Should Tisha give Ariana a chance, courtesy of the fact
2:47
Speaker 1: that her husband is telling her to do so?
2:52
Speaker 3: No.
2:53
Speaker 4: She don't listen to anything else he says.
2:56
Speaker 5: No.
2:57
Speaker 4: Why y'all listen to that?
2:59
Speaker 5: No.
3:00
Speaker 3: No.
3:01
Speaker 4: Um, I'm sorry. Uh, I don't care that you guys
3:04
Speaker 4: are together now. Uh, I'm, I don't, homewreckers cannot, I'm not,
3:07
Speaker 4: I'm going to be very cold to warm up to them.
3:10
Speaker 4: It's going to be a long time coming. It's not
3:12
Speaker 4: going to happen overnight. I'm not just going to be like, Oh,
3:15
Speaker 4: you went from the mistress to now you're the main, uh,
3:18
Speaker 4: let's be friends. Let's do lunch. I would be like
3:20
Speaker 4: side eyeing because especially the fact that she'd been around
3:23
Speaker 4: the men and none of the women yet, I already
3:25
Speaker 4: would feel like you, you, I don't know. I would
3:29
Speaker 4: be slow to trust. And, you know, and I would
3:32
Speaker 4: definitely be slow to trust and to open up to
3:34
Speaker 4: her because I was having a conversation with my friend,
3:37
Speaker 4: Tony today, my home girl about women that do this.
3:40
Speaker 4: And it is not all on her. So she cannot
3:42
Speaker 4: just take all the blame. It is on both of them.
3:44
Speaker 3: Right.
3:44
Speaker 4: But I just don't want those type of women around me.
3:46
Speaker 4: I really don't. Have I had a homewrecker friend or
3:49
Speaker 4: two in my life? Yes, I have. And in our
3:51
Speaker 4: private conversations, I won't embarrass them in public. I really don't.
3:54
Speaker 4: I have my conversation with them about how they move. And,
3:57
Speaker 4: you know, I'm a little judgy with them. I, you're
4:02
Speaker 4: going to get the karma back. And Arianne, if you
4:05
Speaker 4: think you are not going to get that karma back
4:07
Speaker 4: in some form or fashion, you are delusional because men
4:11
Speaker 4: don't just cheat on one person. They cheat on everybody.
4:14
Speaker 4: It's not like a, oh my God, I was so
4:16
Speaker 4: weak because you were just so gorgeous. And I'm such
4:18
Speaker 4: a fan of this. I just could not help myself.
4:22
Speaker 4: I just could not help myself. And I just had
4:25
Speaker 4: to be with you.
4:26
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying?
4:27
Speaker 3: Accuracy. Oh my God.
4:29
Speaker 4: I just had to be with you and there's something
4:31
Speaker 4: about you. Just do everything out the window. I just, oh,
4:34
Speaker 4: I never usually do this, but for you, I'm just
4:37
Speaker 4: changing it up. Is that cute?
4:40
Speaker 5: Okay.
4:40
Speaker 4: So no, I just think that, I think that Tisha
4:47
Speaker 4: is absolutely right to be wary of a girl like that.
4:50
Speaker 4: And you, you know, welcome her back in first. So
4:52
Speaker 4: it'd be weird, especially how y'all all came to know
4:55
Speaker 4: each other. That's weird. I'm going to have her at
4:58
Speaker 4: arm's length and she's going to have to prove herself
5:00
Speaker 4: to me. Not that I'm, not that Tisha is like,
5:04
Speaker 4: you know, she's not really there for Tisha, but I
5:06
Speaker 4: don't have to be there for you in the friend circle.
5:09
Speaker 4: I can keep you at arm's length because I would
5:11
Speaker 4: not trust you. Because she's just way too proud of
5:13
Speaker 4: being a, it ain't like, man, she's not humble at all.
5:16
Speaker 4: It's not like, man, you know, I got caught up
5:19
Speaker 4: and I messed up. She's a little too, I'm here now.
5:24
Speaker 4: She's so, so humble. so thirsty to be in the
5:28
Speaker 4: driver's seat. And it's so ridiculous. And she's such a
5:32
Speaker 4: pick me. And I don't like pick me's. I don't
5:35
Speaker 4: like them in politics. I don't like them in sports.
5:38
Speaker 4: I don't like them in reality shows. You make it
5:41
Speaker 4: harder for the women out here that are not doing
5:43
Speaker 4: that bullshit. You're the kind of woman that when a
5:45
Speaker 4: man comes around, you say what the man wants to hear.
5:47
Speaker 4: So you can seem like you're more agreeable than the
5:49
Speaker 4: other girls that actually have a spine. That's what I think.
5:52
Speaker 4: And you're proud of You're proud with the, he's giving
5:57
Speaker 4: you the minimum. He could even say you're his best
6:01
Speaker 4: friend in front of his people. You are the peasant.
6:04
Speaker 4: He called you, his words, not mine. He called you
6:06
Speaker 4: a peasant. And you mad at other people for talking
6:09
Speaker 4: shit about you. I be mad at the man that
6:12
Speaker 4: I give my coochie to. Call me a peasant. You
6:14
Speaker 4: can't call me a peasant and fuck. No, you cannot.
6:17
Speaker 4: But then again, I'm not her. Oh, I'm not her.
6:22
Speaker 4: How'd it go?
6:23
Speaker 3: Oh, no.
6:24
Speaker 4: Can you see? Okay.
6:27
Speaker 5: There we go.
6:28
Speaker 2: Yeah.
6:28
Speaker 5: Okay.
6:28
Speaker 4: I don't know how she does it.
6:30
Speaker 5: It's a little too neat, Claudia. It's shaking up a
6:32
Speaker 5: little bit. It's a little too neat.
6:33
Speaker 2: Okay.
6:33
Speaker 3: There we go.
6:34
Speaker 5: Don't you go that way? Yep. All the ways. It
6:37
Speaker 5: goes all the ways.
6:37
Speaker 3: Here we go.
6:38
Speaker 4: Do I look like her now?
6:39
Speaker 5: Yep.
6:40
Speaker 4: Well, I got to get the face of those questions.
6:42
Speaker 4: My man, my man, my man.
6:43
Speaker 5: My man, my man, my man.
6:44
Speaker 4: I'm so happy he chose me finally after 12 years.
6:50
Speaker 5: Huh?
6:51
Speaker 3: Did I say something bad?
6:59
Speaker 1: No.
7:00
Speaker 2: Dustin Ross.
7:02
Speaker 3: Yeah. So the question was, right, how do I feel
7:07
Speaker 3: about the scene with Marcel and Letitia discussing Arianne, right?
7:11
Speaker 3: That's your question. Right, Carlos?
7:13
Speaker 4: Yes, sir.
7:13
Speaker 2: Thank you. Sorry, I went off track here.
7:14
Speaker 3: No, no, no. I just want to make sure I'm
7:16
Speaker 3: hitting the prompt, right?
7:17
Speaker 4: I have ADHD, too. Real bad.
7:19
Speaker 2: Thank you, Dustin. Because I agree.
7:21
Speaker 3: I felt everything Claudia said. I just want to make
7:23
Speaker 3: sure I'm hitting the prompt. So I thought it was bizarre.
7:28
Speaker 3: I thought it was bizarre that they were, that Marceau
7:31
Speaker 3: and Letitia took such a casual and cavalier approach to
7:35
Speaker 3: what would seemingly be such a serious matter and a
7:38
Speaker 3: serious thorn in the ass of their marriage. You know
7:40
Speaker 3: what I'm saying? I really... expected them to sit down
7:44
Speaker 3: and say, what the fuck do these people think we're
7:48
Speaker 3: going to have to say to Ariane after she lied
7:50
Speaker 3: and set up with that miscellaneous woman in that YouTube
7:53
Speaker 3: video and made all these accusations and has said everything
7:57
Speaker 3: that there is to say about a person, about both
8:00
Speaker 3: of us sitting here. I'm not about to sit up
8:03
Speaker 3: and share space with her unless she comes in apologetic
8:06
Speaker 3: and ready to address and debunk The things that she
8:10
Speaker 3: said about our family, about me, about you, all of that.
8:13
Speaker 3: I thought it was odd that Marceau and Letitia sat
8:16
Speaker 3: down and Marceau, he would even encourage Letitia getting to
8:19
Speaker 3: know Arianne. Get to know her for what? We got
8:22
Speaker 3: to know her during these past, their son is five
8:25
Speaker 3: years old now, five or six. So they've gotten to
8:28
Speaker 3: know her over the past five or six years for sure.
8:31
Speaker 3: Whether they knew her prior to that is lore at
8:35
Speaker 3: this point, right? But they've known her ass for the
8:38
Speaker 3: past five or six years. And I don't think they
8:41
Speaker 3: like what they've seen. I don't think they enjoyed seeing
8:44
Speaker 3: what she said about them in that YouTube video with
8:47
Speaker 3: that lady. In addition to the countless posts on Instagram,
8:50
Speaker 3: posts anywhere where she has an active account, YouTube videos,
8:54
Speaker 3: FaceDamn book, all that stuff where she's been very vocal
8:58
Speaker 3: and active sharing her side of the story in ways
9:01
Speaker 3: that I think would grossly offend Letitia and Marcel and
9:06
Speaker 3: also impact the way that they engage with her. So
9:10
Speaker 3: I was surprised by their casual approach to that.
9:15
Speaker 1: Blue to Luzma, the Marcel-Tisha conversation. Were you, you know,
9:22
Speaker 1: there were people in the comments, like Dustin said too,
9:25
Speaker 1: that were, Claudia said she didn't listen anyway, but there
9:28
Speaker 1: were some people in the comments that were surprised that
9:32
Speaker 1: Marcel encouraged Tisha, to give Ariana a chance.
9:37
Speaker 2: Where do you think that stemmed from?
9:40
Speaker 5: Because, how do I say this? Sometimes people just want
9:44
Speaker 5: things to be glossed over to make their life easier
9:46
Speaker 5: because holding people accountable is inconvenient, right? And one of
9:50
Speaker 5: the things that Tisha said is, I'm a wife. And
9:52
Speaker 5: a lot of us do not want to sound unnecessarily judgmental.
9:58
Speaker 5: And there's a fine line between judgment and discernment. right
10:01
Speaker 5: I had once had a friend like Claudia mentioned who
10:03
Speaker 5: was a home worker a proud one and was very
10:06
Speaker 5: very proud about being a third wheel in other people's
10:09
Speaker 5: relationships not consensually and I told myself I don't want
10:12
Speaker 5: to be judgmental just because we move differently fast forward
10:15
Speaker 5: two years later guess who's hitting on the person I
10:16
Speaker 5: just broke up with And I'm like, oh, that wasn't
10:20
Speaker 5: me judging you. That was discernment knocking on the door
10:23
Speaker 5: and I didn't answer the door, right? So sometimes it's
10:25
Speaker 5: not judgment, it's discernment. And for those who want to
10:27
Speaker 5: know the difference, discernment doesn't mean I say you're a
10:30
Speaker 5: bad person for doing X, Y, and Z. Discernment means
10:33
Speaker 5: I say, are we compatible or not? If I'm someone
10:35
Speaker 5: who's a wife and I'm in a loving relationship and
10:38
Speaker 5: you are a proud and smug homewrecker, that means we
10:43
Speaker 5: are not compatible because the very thing that I consider
10:46
Speaker 5: sacred is is something you take pride in desecrating. That's
10:49
Speaker 5: not judgment. That's just keeping yourself safe. And so any
10:52
Speaker 5: wife around a woman like her, and I will say this,
10:54
Speaker 5: my mother was a mistress. My mother was not smug.
10:58
Speaker 5: She was not proud of it. She even said, she
11:00
Speaker 5: was like, when I found out your daddy was married
11:02
Speaker 5: to that lady, I left him alone. So this is
11:05
Speaker 5: not about judging her actions. It's about judging how willfully
11:08
Speaker 5: ignorant she's being when people try to hold her to
11:10
Speaker 5: the most basic levels of accountability. She keeps using words incorrectly.
11:15
Speaker 5: Accountability doesn't mean that you cuss people out for bringing
11:18
Speaker 5: consequences to your doorstep after you showed your ass. That's
11:21
Speaker 5: not accountability. Accountability also doesn't mean that you go on
11:25
Speaker 5: the attack when people ask valid questions. People are allowed
11:28
Speaker 5: to speak about how they feel about you destroying the
11:31
Speaker 5: light or helping, because it takes two. You being a
11:34
Speaker 5: co-conspirator and helping to destroy the marriage of someone that
11:37
Speaker 5: they care about in a friend group that's based on
11:40
Speaker 5: couples bonding as married couples, they're allowed to do that.
11:45
Speaker 5: I think it's absolutely asinine that she's allowed to sleep
11:47
Speaker 5: with a married man, but nobody's allowed to talk about it. Okay.
11:50
Speaker 5: That is so self-indulgent and unintelligent. And I will say this,
11:54
Speaker 5: when they had the scene around how fine she was,
11:56
Speaker 5: and I know I'm jumping ahead, I think her and
11:59
Speaker 5: Martel are both very attractive. I understand because they're both
12:02
Speaker 5: so attractive why lust might have been a factor, but
12:06
Speaker 5: there's a certain shallowness to their connection that makes me
12:11
Speaker 5: feel like, not if, but when this ends and expires
12:15
Speaker 5: and no longer serves the two of them, some of
12:18
Speaker 5: that vitriol that they put towards other people, they're going
12:20
Speaker 5: to aim at each other. And so I think they
12:21
Speaker 5: need to be really, really careful because what they're doing
12:24
Speaker 5: is they're burning bridges of folks that they're going to
12:26
Speaker 5: need when this blows over. Whenever this culminates, however it's
12:29
Speaker 5: going to culminate, Martel's going to have to be careful
12:32
Speaker 5: because all that smugness she has for the girl, ladies,
12:34
Speaker 5: it's going to be coming to his doorstep soon. So
12:37
Speaker 5: I'm going to watch this play out, Carlos, but I
12:39
Speaker 5: will say that young lady is insufferable, not because of
12:43
Speaker 5: what she did, but because of how she responded. To
12:45
Speaker 5: be held properly accountable. I think it's gross and disgusting.
12:47
Speaker 1: And I want to actually have us go there now.
12:53
Speaker 2: So here's the deal. And I do want, first of all, Blue,
12:55
Speaker 2: thank you for your honesty.
12:57
Speaker 1: You mentioned it before about your mother, but I appreciate
13:00
Speaker 1: you bringing it up in the context of the scene.
13:03
Speaker 2: I do want to get into this, though. Okay.
13:06
Speaker 1: There was a scene between Miss Nell and Ariane. Arianne,
13:11
Speaker 1: for the first time, explained to us, the audience, what
13:16
Speaker 1: happened between her and Martel the moment they met.
13:20
Speaker 2: We've always heard.
13:21
Speaker 1: Martel's side of the story because, obviously, he was the
13:24
Speaker 1: only person... Allegedly, he was the only person there when
13:28
Speaker 1: they met. I forgot about this show and the history
13:30
Speaker 1: of it.
13:31
Speaker 3: Hey, Dustin.
13:32
Speaker 2: So, anywho.
13:35
Speaker 1: In this scene, Arianne, and I want to start with
13:39
Speaker 1: you first, Blue, because if you don't mind, and we're friends,
13:43
Speaker 1: so tell me if I'm going too far with this.
13:46
Speaker 2: I want to start with you only because about your mother.
13:50
Speaker 1: And I really appreciate your candor about that and mentioning,
13:55
Speaker 1: but your.
13:55
Speaker 2: Mother wasn't smug with it.
13:57
Speaker 1: So with that being said, in this scene, Arianne talks
14:00
Speaker 1: about meeting Martel.
14:02
Speaker 2: She said... I was attracted to him. I thought he
14:05
Speaker 2: was fine. I was young.
14:10
Speaker 5: Ms.
14:10
Speaker 1: Nell said, did you know he was married? And she goes,
14:14
Speaker 1: I found out later, but I didn't stop. She also
14:19
Speaker 1: mentioned how young she was at the time. She was
14:21
Speaker 1: in her early 20s.
14:23
Speaker 2: She also mentioned that if she knew now.
14:30
Speaker 1: What all of this would have been then, right? When
14:32
Speaker 1: they first met, she wouldn't have done it. And she admits,
14:36
Speaker 1: did I say that wrong, Dustin? If she knew then, okay,
14:39
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Thank you, Dustin. If she knew then what
14:43
Speaker 1: she knows now, she wouldn't have continued the relationship.
14:50
Speaker 5: Well, yeah.
14:52
Speaker 1: I want to start with Blue only because I do
14:54
Speaker 1: want to bring in your mother because Blue has, and again,
14:57
Speaker 1: Blue said this, so I'm not telling her business, Raindrops,
15:00
Speaker 1: just in case you're new to the platform. Blue has
15:04
Speaker 1: mentioned that she is the product of an affair.
15:09
Speaker 3: Yes. Okay.
15:12
Speaker 1: When you heard for the first time Ariane's POV, and
15:16
Speaker 1: I just want to stick to this for a second
15:17
Speaker 1: because there's.
15:18
Speaker 2: So much I want to talk about.
15:19
Speaker 1: When you heard how young she was, when you heard
15:23
Speaker 1: her admit it was a mistake, did you find any
15:30
Speaker 1: grace for her in that particular moment?
15:34
Speaker 5: I would have if, the answer is no.
15:36
Speaker 3: Okay.
15:37
Speaker 5: The answer is a very loud no, because it felt
15:40
Speaker 5: like much in the same way people tend to weaponize
15:43
Speaker 5: therapy speak. And the very thing that's meant to help
15:45
Speaker 5: them heal is just used as a leverage to help
15:48
Speaker 5: them shirk accountability. It felt incredibly manipulative. And I will
15:53
Speaker 5: say this, my mother, it was in the same scenario,
15:55
Speaker 5: but my mother was a lot more honest. When she
15:57
Speaker 5: found out that my father had a wife, She was dumbstruck.
16:00
Speaker 5: She was devastated. And she said, I don't want to
16:03
Speaker 5: be in this scenario. I'm going to keep the baby
16:05
Speaker 5: because obviously, hey, I'm here. But I don't want to
16:07
Speaker 5: do this to another woman. And she recused herself and
16:11
Speaker 5: showed respect and deference to the wife saying, I would
16:13
Speaker 5: never want to be a part of this intentionally. Now
16:16
Speaker 5: that I know that you exist, I'm going to keep
16:18
Speaker 5: it moving. But I have to co-parent with this man.
16:21
Speaker 5: And Morty, cause I'm not ashamed. I'm in my mom's
16:23
Speaker 5: house right now. He ended up knocking up her home girl.
16:26
Speaker 5: He kept doing it with other women.
16:28
Speaker 4: Yeah.
16:28
Speaker 5: I just found out last Thanksgiving, I got a little
16:31
Speaker 5: sister who's only six months younger than me.
16:33
Speaker 3: Right.
16:34
Speaker 5: And so she understood that what he was doing with
16:36
Speaker 5: her was showing her his character. She never once took
16:39
Speaker 5: it out of my father's wife, right? She never once
16:43
Speaker 5: felt like she was entitled to have grace to the
16:45
Speaker 5: point where she wasn't being held accountable. She was like,
16:47
Speaker 5: I made my bed. I have to lie in it.
16:49
Speaker 5: I will also say this. It is dangerous. And I'm
16:52
Speaker 5: going to use this word intentionally. And Martel, oh, I
16:54
Speaker 5: can't believe y'all have me defending his fine ass. Martel
16:57
Speaker 5: even bucked at this. She keeps on planting seeds about
17:01
Speaker 5: the young thing. In a way that feels like she's
17:04
Speaker 5: already starting the storyline of him being predatory. And when
17:09
Speaker 5: he had that strong reaction like, hold on, why do
17:11
Speaker 5: people mention that you're young? I thought you were fine.
17:14
Speaker 5: I thought I was fine. Are there predatory men?
17:16
Speaker 6: Sure.
17:17
Speaker 5: And though you can still be a young girl who
17:19
Speaker 5: is up to some stuff. And I have a sneaking feeling.
17:24
Speaker 5: That she's already preparing herself where if anything happens between
17:28
Speaker 5: her and him, the audience, women in particular, are already
17:31
Speaker 5: feeling bad for her. I was young. I was young.
17:34
Speaker 5: Saying it one time in a story, sure. But saying
17:36
Speaker 5: my man, my man, my man, and then constantly putting
17:39
Speaker 5: it into our heads. I was young. I was young.
17:40
Speaker 5: I was young. That's not you taking accountability. That's you
17:43
Speaker 5: already preparing a backdoor excuse for if he does you dirty.
17:46
Speaker 5: or the show does you dirty, you can play victim.
17:49
Speaker 5: And there's something so manipulative in how she's weaponizing her youth.
17:53
Speaker 5: There's a movie called Hard Candy, for those who haven't
17:54
Speaker 5: seen it. It's about a man who's a predator. He
17:57
Speaker 5: goes to meet a young girl. Turns out the young
17:58
Speaker 5: girl's a sociopath. So just be clear. You can be
18:02
Speaker 5: a victim and a manipulator simultaneously. I have a sneaking
18:06
Speaker 5: feeling that I hope I'm proven wrong that she can
18:08
Speaker 5: be both. Was she young?
18:11
Speaker 3: Sure.
18:12
Speaker 5: And she had already had a child, word on the street,
18:14
Speaker 5: this is a rumor, allegedly, allegedly, allegedly, with somebody else
18:17
Speaker 5: who was in a relationship. So my thing is, if
18:19
Speaker 5: you have two children as a side piece, at what
18:23
Speaker 5: point are we allowed to say, baby, you got some
18:25
Speaker 5: work to do too, it can't just be Martel. At
18:28
Speaker 5: what point are we allowed to say that? And so
18:30
Speaker 5: I get nervous when people who are victimized are watching
18:34
Speaker 5: their narrative play out in the mouth of someone who's
18:36
Speaker 5: using it as a scheme. I think this young lady
18:39
Speaker 5: is scheming. I think she is clever. I think she's
18:41
Speaker 5: going to be playing the world's smallest violin, talking about
18:43
Speaker 5: I'm young, I'm young, I'm young, while also saying my man,
18:45
Speaker 5: my man, my man. Everybody needs to wash themselves around
18:48
Speaker 5: a woman like that. She makes me very nervous.
18:52
Speaker 1: This is Reality with the King, and I'm Carlos King.
18:56
Speaker 2: Let's get back into the show.
18:59
Speaker 3: Dustin, I've been shocked. I've been shocked and surprised several
19:03
Speaker 3: times during this episode. But Ariane finally got the chance
19:07
Speaker 3: to introduce herself to this audience that has been discussing
19:11
Speaker 3: her in her absence, which even the notion of her
19:14
Speaker 3: making that statement that her situation with Martel had been
19:17
Speaker 3: discussed in her absence as if she was owed an
19:21
Speaker 3: opportunity to talk about being, you know, a willing participant
19:24
Speaker 3: in the extramarital affair. That was a little bit far-fetched
19:27
Speaker 3: for me in theory itself. But Arianne didn't show any
19:31
Speaker 3: signs of remorse in this episode. In fact, it felt
19:35
Speaker 3: insulting watching her sit in the confessional chair and feign
19:39
Speaker 3: the crying moment. That was like, okay, what you doing, man?
19:43
Speaker 3: You ain't need, like, come on, dog. Like, I couldn't
19:46
Speaker 3: even do nothing but laugh when she sat there and
19:49
Speaker 3: positioned her bodyguard. She did like a, what, a little
19:52
Speaker 3: slight rotate to the right. You know what I'm saying?
19:55
Speaker 3: Stuck her shoulders up, clasped her hands in front of
19:58
Speaker 3: her and put them in her lap. And then what
20:01
Speaker 3: did she do? She said, and was dry. Nothing came out.
20:09
Speaker 3: Nothing came out. She don't have no remorse. I was
20:11
Speaker 3: surprised that after years and years of being discussed and
20:16
Speaker 3: finally getting the opportunity to have your say, I was
20:19
Speaker 3: surprised that her and Martel both when asked, why were
20:23
Speaker 3: you attracted to me or what made you want to
20:25
Speaker 3: pursue this relationship with me? They both answered, you was fine.
20:30
Speaker 3: That was wild to me. And it made them both
20:32
Speaker 3: appear really vapid and like this was a very superficial,
20:36
Speaker 3: empty ass relationship. where they're basically just walking around the house,
20:40
Speaker 3: bumping into the walls and just functioning, performing the necessary
20:44
Speaker 3: tasks to stay alive each day, like eating and shitting
20:48
Speaker 3: and making sure that the children have their basic needs
20:52
Speaker 3: met in whatever ways they need to. The idea as
20:57
Speaker 3: if she would say like, if had I known what
21:02
Speaker 3: I know now, then you did. You did. You knew
21:07
Speaker 3: that he was married then. What is the new, I
21:09
Speaker 3: would have liked to see that question being, you know,
21:13
Speaker 3: taking a deeper dive into that question. I would have
21:15
Speaker 3: liked to take a deeper dive into that question because
21:18
Speaker 3: what is the information that she was lacking then but
21:22
Speaker 3: has and possesses now that would have influenced her behavior
21:26
Speaker 3: to be different? I don't think there is any. And again,
21:31
Speaker 3: finally being given the opportunity to have something to say Why?
21:36
Speaker 3: If you were going to come on here and evade accountability,
21:40
Speaker 3: defend insults that you feel like you missed an opportunity
21:44
Speaker 3: to defend or return, you could have just faded into
21:47
Speaker 3: the background and lived a quiet life as a successful nurse,
21:50
Speaker 3: raising your children in the healthiest environments you can and
21:54
Speaker 3: kept it moving. If you're going to come over here
21:57
Speaker 3: and play and be a part of this show, have
21:59
Speaker 3: something substantive to say that may change or challenge some
22:04
Speaker 3: of the very rooted feelings and opinions we have based
22:08
Speaker 3: on Arianne's behavior. I think her and Martel both missed
22:11
Speaker 3: the mark this entire episode. And it almost seems like
22:15
Speaker 3: Arianne is taking the position of now that I can talk,
22:19
Speaker 3: I'm going to be adversarial to Martel and try to
22:21
Speaker 3: put all of the accountability into his lap because he was,
22:25
Speaker 3: and in some regards, rightfully so. But I don't think
22:28
Speaker 3: Arianne is astute enough to even understand that she's right
22:32
Speaker 3: about that. I think her goal and intention in doing
22:35
Speaker 3: that It's just moving the blame into Martel's lap and
22:39
Speaker 3: out of hers, because this is the first time in
22:42
Speaker 3: over a decade when she's been able to say to
22:45
Speaker 3: the same audience that has rightfully and understandably so judged her.
22:50
Speaker 3: This is the first time she's able to say, well, no, y'all,
22:52
Speaker 3: it was actually. And she doesn't add anything, you know,
22:57
Speaker 3: that that is influential or like I said, substantive. It's
23:01
Speaker 3: just a bunch of empty ass rhetoric and mumbo jumbo,
23:05
Speaker 3: quite literally, that amounts to nothing that is going to
23:08
Speaker 3: sway the way that anybody that is aware of her
23:11
Speaker 3: history feels about her. And it's sad. Me personally, I
23:14
Speaker 3: don't have to like you to wish you well and
23:16
Speaker 3: to wish you success, right? And her being a part
23:19
Speaker 3: of this cast was an opportunity for her to do
23:22
Speaker 3: something well and do it right from the beginning. Her
23:26
Speaker 3: appearing on this season, which shout out to Love and
23:29
Speaker 3: Marriage Huntsville, the show that keeps on giving and is
23:31
Speaker 3: going to continue to give, right? She had an opportunity
23:35
Speaker 3: to enter that stage and really impact the way that
23:39
Speaker 3: her reputation has been stained of her own accord, right?
23:44
Speaker 3: And she has chosen thus far in episodes one and
23:47
Speaker 3: two not to do that. I'm surprised at that poor
23:51
Speaker 3: choice now that she's finally been given this opportunity.
23:56
Speaker 4: Her and Martel just seem so, it's dumb and dumber.
24:01
Speaker 4: But all this time y'all had to craft a response
24:05
Speaker 4: and prepare for your big coming out party where we
24:08
Speaker 4: reveal the woman that got your nose open. It should
24:12
Speaker 4: have been something so much deeper where there could be
24:14
Speaker 4: some people that say, you know what? I don't understand
24:17
Speaker 4: how that would happen. Maybe you went left in your
24:20
Speaker 4: marriage and you felt neglected. Give us something. You can't
24:25
Speaker 4: be as primitive and as barbaric And as low vibrational
24:31
Speaker 4: as you was fine, you was fine. So you just
24:33
Speaker 4: blow up everything you had over here. And Arian, this
24:36
Speaker 4: is your second time, allegedly, according to the streets of
24:38
Speaker 4: like going for it based on fine. That is such
24:41
Speaker 4: a like, imagine throwing everything away because someone's fine. Then
24:44
Speaker 4: you're going to see fine a lot in your life. Well,
24:46
Speaker 4: if you hang with me, you will a lot. So
24:49
Speaker 4: you just like blow up the spot because of fine.
24:51
Speaker 4: And I think you did just, they did themselves no
24:54
Speaker 4: favors by having such a shallow reason for all this.
24:58
Speaker 4: It is. Couldn't they have said something like, when I
25:01
Speaker 4: met her, I felt like we were kindred spirits.
25:03
Speaker 5: I don't know.
25:04
Speaker 4: It's just something about her. I just could not stop
25:05
Speaker 4: thinking about this. Fuck, lie to us. Say something. Because
25:08
Speaker 4: now you made it an uphill battle for you on
25:11
Speaker 4: this season, even more than you already was. And they
25:13
Speaker 4: just both seem so stupid. So dumb. But hey, at
25:19
Speaker 4: least they're fine.
25:22
Speaker 2: Claudia, I can't.
25:26
Speaker 3: Never mind, because I ain't finna talk about nobody here.
25:28
Speaker 3: I'm not finna talk about nobody here.
25:29
Speaker 5: I think she's really, really, really pretty. And notice how
25:31
Speaker 5: we're making fun of a hairstyle, not her beauty.
25:34
Speaker 4: I'm making fun of a hairstyle, yes.
25:36
Speaker 5: It's a hairstyle, not her beauty.
25:37
Speaker 3: It do be looking like Bruce Lee did her ponytail.
25:39
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
25:47
Speaker 5: Can I say one thing too? Can we all just
25:49
Speaker 5: realize too, I think what's happening with the older women
25:51
Speaker 5: on the cast is they recognize something my mother told
25:54
Speaker 5: me a long time ago. When somebody has nothing to lose,
25:57
Speaker 5: they have everything to gain. Because she has nothing to lose,
26:01
Speaker 5: she doesn't mind to tussle with everybody because all she
26:04
Speaker 5: can do is gain relevance. While they have plenty to lose,
26:07
Speaker 5: like their peace of mind. So I know why the
26:09
Speaker 5: ladies are being a little skittish with her because they
26:11
Speaker 5: recognize she wants a moment with them. I would be
26:13
Speaker 5: skittish with her too.
26:15
Speaker 4: And the fellas, I think, are being cautious because they
26:18
Speaker 4: probably know that Martel's chirping ass, been probably giving pillow
26:23
Speaker 4: talk because he's not that smart. And she probably got
26:25
Speaker 4: tea on.
26:26
Speaker 3: All of them.
26:26
Speaker 4: So that's, oh, you should be friends with her. You know,
26:29
Speaker 4: maybe she's not that bad. They're scared. Hell yeah. The
26:32
Speaker 4: side chick, we know all the business. The side, you
26:35
Speaker 4: get all the business.
26:36
Speaker 3: At this point, though, my thing is she's already said it.
26:39
Speaker 3: She's already crossed that line several times. Martel has already
26:42
Speaker 3: crossed that line several times. We can take it back
26:44
Speaker 3: to Destiny's Field Day with the balloons, Carlos. Destiny's Field Day.
26:49
Speaker 3: We can take it back there, right? We can take
26:54
Speaker 3: it back there when Martel crossed all kind of motherfucking
26:58
Speaker 3: lines with Letitia and Marcel talking about saying the things
27:02
Speaker 3: that he said. I'm not even going to repeat that, right?
27:05
Speaker 3: Arianne has already crossed that line multiple times in her
27:09
Speaker 3: online communication regarding this situation, regarding what she claims to
27:13
Speaker 3: have witnessed Martel and Maurice participating in, even describing what
27:19
Speaker 3: the women looked like to her in that case, which
27:22
Speaker 3: you want. Anyway, what I'm saying is we've been past that.
27:28
Speaker 3: And so I think that the reactions and the reception
27:31
Speaker 3: of her should reflect that. I don't think Nell Fletcher
27:33
Speaker 3: reflected that when she sat down with her. I think
27:37
Speaker 3: when I couldn't believe I was watching those Ziploc sandwich bags,
27:41
Speaker 3: storage sandwich bags coming out of Nell's satchel and being
27:45
Speaker 3: placed on those and the grapes and shit that I
27:47
Speaker 3: would have eaten and torn up being placed on those
27:50
Speaker 3: plates so that Arianne could have something to snack on
27:53
Speaker 3: while she sat in that chair and took zero accountability
27:56
Speaker 3: for her situation. while claiming to do so. I was
27:59
Speaker 3: surprised by that. Nell, we remember how you were introduced
28:02
Speaker 3: to this show and you did bring up those counseling
28:05
Speaker 3: sessions in that sit down with Arianne. And while Arianne, again,
28:10
Speaker 3: I'm going to say it plainly, she is entitled to
28:13
Speaker 3: have her say and share her side because damn it,
28:15
Speaker 3: she got a side. But I just don't understand why
28:19
Speaker 3: after her disrespect, I'll use the most broadly understood terms
28:25
Speaker 3: I can, After her disrespecting these people on this level
28:28
Speaker 3: that she has, I don't understand why everybody is so cool.
28:32
Speaker 3: I just don't understand. Nobody said, okay, well, what the
28:35
Speaker 3: fuck was up with that shit you said from the gate,
28:39
Speaker 3: up on site, the same way she walked in. Because
28:42
Speaker 3: Arianne's doing it. Arianne walked into whatever the fuck that was,
28:47
Speaker 3: celebrating Martel, a toddler, for making his bed. You got
28:51
Speaker 3: your builder's license. Wow.
28:52
Speaker 2: He passed his builder's license.
28:54
Speaker 3: You know, I mean, really. And it's an accomplishment. I'm
29:01
Speaker 3: not trying to diminish his accomplishment, right? But at that situation,
29:05
Speaker 3: Arianne came in on hot. She literally looked at Destiny
29:08
Speaker 3: and said, what's the energy? And look back at Martel.
29:11
Speaker 3: So she's doing what all the rest of them need
29:15
Speaker 3: to be doing. And I don't understand why nobody's done it.
29:18
Speaker 3: It should have been on site.
29:21
Speaker 4: They actually said more stuff might come out. Like, I
29:24
Speaker 4: know she's been running her mouth, but maybe there's more.
29:25
Speaker 4: And it's also different when you talk about it online
29:27
Speaker 4: or go on Touch K and then when you in
29:29
Speaker 4: their face at lunch or dinner and you can maybe
29:31
Speaker 4: bring some more receipts. I wonder if that's what they're
29:34
Speaker 4: nervous about.
29:35
Speaker 3: 100%.
29:35
Speaker 5: It's emotional blackmail, Claudia. Yeah. Dustin, you know what it's like, Dustin.
29:39
Speaker 5: Imagine if somebody wrote something in the comment section knowing
29:42
Speaker 5: that you don't read the comments and one day you responded.
29:45
Speaker 5: They would get aroused. Oh my God, Dustin finally acknowledged
29:48
Speaker 5: my existence. I can finally pull him down into the
29:49
Speaker 5: trenches where I already live. They can tell she wants
29:53
Speaker 5: a moment so bad and I fear, Carlos blinked twice,
29:57
Speaker 5: that eventually she's going to get a tussle out of somebody.
29:59
Speaker 4: I think so too. I think she's going to get
30:01
Speaker 4: sick of the judgment.
30:02
Speaker 5: She's persistent.
30:03
Speaker 3: Okay. They all should have checked her. I don't give
30:06
Speaker 3: a fuck. We naming names. Destiny, Letitia, Letitia Scott, Destiny,
30:14
Speaker 3: Letitia Scott, Kimmy Scott, Marie Scott, Marceau Scott. They all
30:21
Speaker 3: should have checked that upon entry and upon arrival. And actually,
30:27
Speaker 3: I'm surprised that they did not. They all should have
30:29
Speaker 3: had a completely different reception of Arianne just based on
30:33
Speaker 3: the notion of her presence alone. Because now we're here.
30:37
Speaker 3: Now we have the eyes. Now we have all the players.
30:39
Speaker 3: Let's get to the bottom of it. I wasn't in
30:41
Speaker 3: no motherfucking Vegas fucking a linebacker. But you shows was
30:46
Speaker 3: in there with Martel. You know what I'm saying? Like,
30:49
Speaker 3: let's get to it. Where is that off the gate?
30:52
Speaker 3: That's what we needed to see. All the lines have
30:55
Speaker 3: already been crossed. We don't have any questions. There are
30:58
Speaker 3: no preguntas on the piso regarding the character of Arianne
31:02
Speaker 3: Curry at this point for anybody on this cast. So
31:05
Speaker 3: I'm not understanding. why people are not coming to these
31:08
Speaker 3: scenes with Vaseline on their face. I'm just playing. Played
31:14
Speaker 3: it twice, Carlos. Does it happen? I will say this.
31:18
Speaker 2: I will say this next week.
31:19
Speaker 4: She was the bet on the show. It seemed like
31:21
Speaker 4: she was the bet and they were the knobs because
31:23
Speaker 4: they were looking like nervous and she wasn't.
31:25
Speaker 5: Sorry, Carlos.
31:26
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
31:27
Speaker 2: Please, please, please.
31:29
Speaker 1: You will see Kimmy and Tisha meet with her this
31:33
Speaker 1: coming Saturday.
31:34
Speaker 3: I've seen the clips. It was tepid.
31:37
Speaker 2: It was tepid.
31:37
Speaker 3: The temperature wasn't hot enough.
31:39
Speaker 5: Dustin wants more violence, Carlos.
31:41
Speaker 3: He wants more violence. It was tepid. The temperature wasn't
31:44
Speaker 3: hot enough. There's no pleasantries to me. Okay. Maybe I
31:49
Speaker 3: haven't grown. You know, I try.
31:51
Speaker 5: You're an Aries.
31:52
Speaker 3: You're an Aries, Dustin. I try to be a good nigga.
31:56
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying? But like sometimes things just
31:59
Speaker 3: take you back into those basic tenets of who you
32:05
Speaker 3: are as a person. And her getting allowed all this wiggle,
32:08
Speaker 3: all this ice rink that they put in front of
32:11
Speaker 3: her to slide all over and around this season. I'm
32:15
Speaker 3: wondering why no one has tortured and melted it yet.
32:18
Speaker 5: Have her come on the show, Carlos. Have her come here.
32:21
Speaker 2: Yeah, bring your ass, Ariel.
32:22
Speaker 5: Ariel, bring your ass. Come here. We're not going to
32:26
Speaker 5: jump you.
32:27
Speaker 3: I'm calling in sick. I ain't even going to hold you.
32:29
Speaker 3: I'm going to call in sick. Not call in sick, Dustin.
32:32
Speaker 2: You're the historian of Huntsville.
32:34
Speaker 3: Some things and some avenues are just not for you
32:41
Speaker 3: to traverse. There are some corners and some things that
32:45
Speaker 3: I just simply don't want to be connected with.
32:46
Speaker 5: Wait, you sound like the cast now, Dustin. You see
32:48
Speaker 5: how quickly that happens?
32:49
Speaker 3: You got too much to lose. You sound just like
32:52
Speaker 3: the cast. She didn't make no video about me saying
32:54
Speaker 3: that I was fucking a linebacker in Vegas. You know
32:57
Speaker 3: what I'm saying? Or whatever. Even if she did, again,
33:01
Speaker 3: I don't want to be connected to her. So I'm
33:03
Speaker 3: talking about a TV show in her absence, thank God.
33:07
Speaker 3: And I don't understand why ain't nobody in Huntsville caught
33:12
Speaker 3: her to the carpet in the ways that we all
33:13
Speaker 3: know she deserved to be.
33:15
Speaker 2: But Arianne, if you.
33:16
Speaker 4: Do feel like making a video about us, it won't
33:19
Speaker 4: be pleasant for you, the response I'm going to tell
33:21
Speaker 4: you right now, because you do have two Aries here
33:23
Speaker 4: that are reckless, don't feel your vibes.
33:26
Speaker 3: It's not going to happen. We're not even going to
33:27
Speaker 3: breathe life into any of that energy because we are
33:30
Speaker 3: not even acknowledging it if she does or does not.
33:33
Speaker 3: I don't think she will. Honestly, I believe that Arianne Curry,
33:38
Speaker 3: the partner of Martell Holt, mother of two, working nurse,
33:42
Speaker 3: now reality television participant, I think that she has a
33:47
Speaker 3: lot bigger fish to fry than what the fuck we
33:50
Speaker 3: have to say over here.
33:52
Speaker 2: Or is it chicken tenders to fry? Because Dustin.
33:55
Speaker 3: Whatever it is, we took the... Not.
33:57
Speaker 5: Too much on Destiny now.
33:59
Speaker 3: Whatever it is, we took the sticker off of the
34:01
Speaker 3: pan we fried him in.
34:02
Speaker 5: Okay, not too much on Destiny.
34:04
Speaker 2: No, I had to segue. I'm a father of piece
34:07
Speaker 2: of destiny.
34:07
Speaker 4: I'm going to let you know right now. I haven't
34:09
Speaker 4: been as involved as Dustin and he will have the
34:12
Speaker 4: integrity to... And I will work on that. Maybe one
34:15
Speaker 4: day I'll get there.
34:16
Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about this. In this scene, we also...
34:20
Speaker 1: One of the things that you guys will see this
34:23
Speaker 1: season is the dynamic between Destiny, Martel, and Arianne. You
34:30
Speaker 1: got a little bit two weeks ago, episode two, when
34:34
Speaker 1: Martel was asked, well, who's your best friend? And he
34:40
Speaker 1: mentioned Fletch instead of choosing between Arianne and Destiny.
34:45
Speaker 3: Ms.
34:45
Speaker 2: Nell brought it up.
34:46
Speaker 3: Say it's how he said it, Carlos.
34:48
Speaker 5: Fletch it.
34:48
Speaker 3: Say it's how he said it.
34:50
Speaker 2: Who's your best friend, baby?
34:51
Speaker 3: And then he was like, that's what he said when
34:55
Speaker 3: she asked him.
34:56
Speaker 4: Whenever a man's voice goes up like that, he is lying.
35:00
Speaker 5: Yeah.
35:00
Speaker 1: So, Ari and I said a story about Destiny that
35:05
Speaker 1: I wanted y'all to talk about.
35:07
Speaker 2: She said that she is not friends with Destiny.
35:10
Speaker 1: Destiny made a comment a few seasons ago about how
35:13
Speaker 1: she didn't want to be friends with her. She is
35:17
Speaker 1: confused about, in her words, that weird-ass relationship that Martell
35:21
Speaker 1: has with Destiny. She also mentioned that Destiny's card declined
35:26
Speaker 1: when she ordered chicken tenders and french fries. And she said,
35:29
Speaker 1: y'all call me coleslaw, call her chicken tenders. What did
35:33
Speaker 1: y'all think about that particular comment? And do you think
35:36
Speaker 1: that there's some jealousy there between Destiny and Martell's friendship?
35:41
Speaker 3: Hell yeah. Absolutely.
35:46
Speaker 4: The way she was acting made me feel like she
35:48
Speaker 4: thinks that there was something going on between Martel and Destiny.
35:52
Speaker 4: The way she's obsessed with dragging her and telling her
35:55
Speaker 4: business about the credit card declining and all of that.
35:58
Speaker 4: That's not the, I don't like you having a female friend. That's,
36:02
Speaker 4: did y'all mess around? I feel a way and I'm jealous.
36:05
Speaker 4: The way she's coming for Destiny like that is crazy.
36:07
Speaker 4: We haven't even heard. She's doing a lot and I
36:11
Speaker 4: think it's going to backfire and I hope it does.
36:16
Speaker 5: Here's the thing. You know you a scoundrel when you're
36:18
Speaker 5: worried the next woman's going to act like you.
36:21
Speaker 3: I like that word.
36:21
Speaker 5: But your biggest fear is that other people act like you.
36:24
Speaker 5: What does that tell you about you, genius? Like, I
36:26
Speaker 5: think she's worried that Destiny... Even the trauma bond. By
36:29
Speaker 5: the way, boys and girls, let's have a little bit
36:31
Speaker 5: of a Reading Rainbow moment. That is not what trauma
36:34
Speaker 5: bond means, okay? Destiny and Martel both going through a
36:37
Speaker 5: divorce is not a trauma bond. They're bonding over trauma. Oh,
36:39
Speaker 5: my God.
36:39
Speaker 3: I'm so glad you're clearing this up.
36:41
Speaker 5: Please.
36:41
Speaker 3: Please.
36:42
Speaker 5: And that's how I knew she was a manipulator, because
36:43
Speaker 5: they always use the words wrong. A trauma bond, for
36:45
Speaker 5: those who don't know, is when you bond with the
36:48
Speaker 5: person who caused you trauma or the person you experienced
36:50
Speaker 5: trauma with. So if you bond with an abuser, or
36:53
Speaker 5: let's say you're two kids who have a father who's
36:55
Speaker 5: like Joe Jackson, Michael and Janet trauma bond. Not Martel
36:59
Speaker 5: and goddamn Destiny, okay? Words mean things. So they're not
37:02
Speaker 5: trauma bonding. Here's the thing, though. I think because she
37:05
Speaker 5: doesn't know what the word means, I think she thinks
37:06
Speaker 5: that her and Martel trauma bonded about being dragged by
37:09
Speaker 5: the public. And she's fearful that the same way that
37:13
Speaker 5: she stroked his ego during a low moment is what
37:15
Speaker 5: Destiny's doing. Baby, let's put another word to your lexicon
37:18
Speaker 5: to use correctly. That's called projecting. When you do something
37:21
Speaker 5: and then fear that somebody else is going to do it,
37:23
Speaker 5: that is called projecting.
37:25
Speaker 2: So.
37:26
Speaker 5: I'm not going to talk about the ponytail, the fact
37:28
Speaker 5: that there's some clips missing. Let's talk about the fact
37:30
Speaker 5: that if you're going to be smug, at least read
37:32
Speaker 5: the dictionary. Because what you're not going to do to
37:33
Speaker 5: Destiny is use the fact that she's unbothered by you
37:36
Speaker 5: as a reason to try to tag her into some
37:38
Speaker 5: weird threesome that she has no interest in. She don't
37:41
Speaker 5: want that man. And here's the funny part is, if
37:43
Speaker 5: she did, she would have already got him. I don't
37:46
Speaker 5: think them not doing nothing is because, I'm going to
37:48
Speaker 5: say this right now, Martel don't seem like he turns
37:51
Speaker 5: down fine women. When given the opportunity. So if nothing's
37:55
Speaker 5: happening between them, you should be sending her a thank
37:57
Speaker 5: you card that she let you keep him and only
37:59
Speaker 5: wants to be his best friend. Respectfully.
38:01
Speaker 4: The way Martel's face lights up and get that little
38:05
Speaker 4: smirk on his face when he's talking about, oh, we know,
38:08
Speaker 4: this is my friend. I'll smack the shit out of him.
38:11
Speaker 4: That is, you are playing with me right now. Either
38:15
Speaker 4: something happened or he wanted something to happen.
38:18
Speaker 5: He wanted something to happen.
38:19
Speaker 4: Yes. His face, it says it all, y'all. Any woman
38:22
Speaker 4: that has asked a narcissistic man, hey, did you ever
38:25
Speaker 4: date that girl? And then they enjoy playing the game
38:28
Speaker 4: with you. Oh, baby, you just insecure. You tripping with that.
38:31
Speaker 5: I don't play my destiny. I bet you don't.
38:34
Speaker 4: Yes, that goofy ass smile on his face. That smile
38:38
Speaker 4: said that is what narcissists do. They look at you
38:40
Speaker 4: with that little look and he knows it's good looking.
38:43
Speaker 4: So he's like, oh, let me give a little look. Yo,
38:47
Speaker 4: that look made me want to slap the shit out
38:48
Speaker 4: of you. And I really have worked hard on myself
38:51
Speaker 4: to not be violent. But I'm just saying, I'll slap
38:53
Speaker 4: the shit out of him.
38:54
Speaker 3: Let's also tap into the audacity, right? The audacity of
38:57
Speaker 3: Arianne to even come onto the scene this season trying
39:00
Speaker 3: to have a beef with somebody. You need to be
39:03
Speaker 3: the nicest, the most docile, most palatable personality that we've
39:07
Speaker 3: ever seen on this show. Because she's cleaning up the
39:12
Speaker 3: wake of madness behind her name as she steps onto
39:16
Speaker 3: the stage with these ladies and gentlemen, right? So the
39:19
Speaker 3: audacity of her to even come on the show and
39:21
Speaker 3: have the nerve to be mad at, I don't like Destiny.
39:25
Speaker 3: Cause she said, you know, she made that comment or
39:27
Speaker 3: whatever that was off color. Ma'am, she was discussing you
39:32
Speaker 3: having an affair with her at the time, her ex-friend,
39:36
Speaker 3: whatever it was. Whatever it was, she was her ex-friend
39:40
Speaker 3: and she was his ex-wife that you dated him while
39:43
Speaker 3: he was married to her. So I think, again, the
39:46
Speaker 3: audacity for me is fascinating when I see her offer
39:50
Speaker 3: her reflections on her connection to these people on this cast.
39:54
Speaker 3: I can't believe that she would be that audacious to
39:58
Speaker 3: even think she's in a position to be, call herself
40:01
Speaker 3: beefing with somebody on this show.
40:04
Speaker 4: Anyone sidekicks or grimy people do grimy things and they
40:08
Speaker 4: get the benefits of the grimy thing, but then they
40:10
Speaker 4: get so offended and so huffy and puffy when you
40:13
Speaker 4: dare say anything. You're judging me. Yes, yes. Yes, I judge.
40:19
Speaker 4: I do judge. I judge.
40:21
Speaker 3: What a missed opportunity to show yourself better. Honestly, she
40:25
Speaker 3: could have really finished this.
40:26
Speaker 2: What a missed.
40:26
Speaker 3: Opportunity to show yourself improved, matured, better, remorseful, take account
40:33
Speaker 3: of true accountability, show yourself as a good mom, as
40:36
Speaker 3: a hardworking nurse, which is something that can be related to.
40:40
Speaker 3: Look how they just changed the professional status of nurses.
40:43
Speaker 3: There's so many different avenues here. where Arianne could have
40:46
Speaker 3: showed herself to have some sort of fortitude and be
40:50
Speaker 3: worthwhile in a way that would be new for the audience.
40:53
Speaker 3: And I feel like she's consistently dodged those opportunities like
40:57
Speaker 3: they hurt. You know what I'm saying?
40:59
Speaker 1: I think she's just staying out the way. Speaking of that,
41:02
Speaker 1: I do want to ask this. We have one more
41:04
Speaker 1: topic before we go. I do want to ask this, though,
41:06
Speaker 1: because I did see a lot of those comments and
41:12
Speaker 1: As the moderator, I'm only asking for the discussion, right?
41:16
Speaker 1: So with that being said, could Arianne truthfully have done
41:24
Speaker 1: anything to make y'all... Let me stick to the three
41:29
Speaker 1: of y'all, okay? I'm not talking to the raindrops and
41:33
Speaker 1: the Monday Night Live-ers. Is there anything, you know, be real.
41:37
Speaker 1: Is there anything she could have done to change the
41:41
Speaker 1: perception you guys have?
41:42
Speaker 2: Because, because, you know, look, She.
41:47
Speaker 1: Represents the worst nightmare for a wife, right?
41:51
Speaker 2: Let's all call it what it is, right?
41:54
Speaker 1: You all said the same thing early in this episode that, look,
41:57
Speaker 1: it takes two to tango. She wasn't by herself, but
42:02
Speaker 1: she elected to do it and she continued to do it, right?
42:05
Speaker 1: Whereas Blue was honest about her mother finding out and saying,
42:09
Speaker 1: I have to recuse myself from the situation because I
42:12
Speaker 1: had no idea.
42:13
Speaker 2: Now that I do know, I'm out of the picture, right?
42:17
Speaker 1: Is there anything that she could have done for y'all
42:20
Speaker 1: to have a different heart for her?
42:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll go. She could have been sincere in her reflection.
42:28
Speaker 3: She could have been sincere in her, um, explanations. She
42:32
Speaker 3: could have showed more authentic emotion. She could have approached
42:36
Speaker 3: it with a different temperament. She could have, um, leaned
42:41
Speaker 3: into telling her story instead of being defensive and on
42:44
Speaker 3: the defense and combative with everybody she sits down with.
42:48
Speaker 3: Her speech cadence is accelerated because she's anticipating a moment
42:54
Speaker 3: where she's going to have to defend herself. So she
42:57
Speaker 3: has a huge bag of chips, Tostitos scoops on her shoulder,
43:01
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, carrying all of that on her.
43:05
Speaker 3: And I think that the culmination of all those things
43:08
Speaker 3: It just hasn't been what would have showed me some
43:13
Speaker 3: sort of real remorse and allowed me to look at
43:15
Speaker 3: her differently. She could have acted like she gave a
43:18
Speaker 3: fuck about how people viewed her when she came on here.
43:21
Speaker 3: She could have leaned into the ugly parts. I regret
43:24
Speaker 3: every single day that my relationship with Martell started the
43:27
Speaker 3: way it did. I feel bad that people think I'm
43:29
Speaker 3: a heartless person who don't care about messing up a family.
43:33
Speaker 3: I regret I did that because I hate the way
43:35
Speaker 3: it makes me look. I'm embarrassed that me and his
43:38
Speaker 3: ex-wife have had drama that we've had. I hate all
43:41
Speaker 3: of it. I hate the way it looks. She ain't
43:44
Speaker 3: said none of that shit. She sat up there and
43:46
Speaker 3: fake tears in the confessional and then was defensive and
43:50
Speaker 3: started even, in fact, coming up with weak insults like
43:53
Speaker 3: chicken tender for destiny. That's a different approach to now
43:57
Speaker 3: it's my turn to shift the lens that people view
44:01
Speaker 3: me through. So yes, to answer your question, there's something
44:05
Speaker 3: that she could have done to change my view of her,
44:07
Speaker 3: which would have been something at all.
44:10
Speaker 5: I will say, too, to back up what Dustin said,
44:12
Speaker 5: whenever it comes to being perceived publicly, you guys know
44:16
Speaker 5: I have a past doing some work as a fixer
44:18
Speaker 5: on the back end. And one of the things we
44:20
Speaker 5: always tell clients is there's three lanes of audience. There
44:24
Speaker 5: are the folks who are going to be determined to
44:25
Speaker 5: hate you. No matter what you do, they don't like
44:28
Speaker 5: your eyes. They think that you don't deserve the spot
44:30
Speaker 5: that you're in. They already showed up hating you without
44:32
Speaker 5: even knowing anything about you. Then they're going to be
44:35
Speaker 5: the folks who are determined to love you. They either
44:36
Speaker 5: love a villain or they're a dirty bird brain themselves
44:39
Speaker 5: and they see you in them and they're happy that
44:40
Speaker 5: one day y'all made it on top of the stage. Caw-caw, right?
44:43
Speaker 5: Birds like other birds. The third group are folks who
44:46
Speaker 5: are open to reason. I think the third group would
44:50
Speaker 5: have been her saving grace. Reality TV, and Carlos is
44:54
Speaker 5: a producer, you can attest to this, is full of
44:56
Speaker 5: people with interesting origin stories where we either weren't checking
45:00
Speaker 5: for them or we didn't like them and they course
45:02
Speaker 5: correct and we find ourselves begrudgingly loving them. Perfect example,
45:05
Speaker 5: Love Island, a guy named Corbin, right? Everybody couldn't stand
45:08
Speaker 5: Corbin at the beginning, but because of his consistency of
45:11
Speaker 5: character and the fact that he was often the one
45:13
Speaker 5: being the voice of reason, people kept on saying, oh
45:16
Speaker 5: my God, I can't believe I like Corbin a little bit.
45:18
Speaker 2: And we were all determined to clown him. That's how
45:20
Speaker 2: some people feel about destiny. Daphne's another great example.
45:25
Speaker 5: Another great example. So sincerity will always get the third group,
45:30
Speaker 5: and the third group ends up being your new fan base.
45:33
Speaker 5: I am someone who lives in the third group. I'm always...
45:35
Speaker 5: How many times have I said, even with Angel Massey,
45:37
Speaker 5: I was like, look, if she shows up and shows accountability,
45:40
Speaker 5: I might be able to stand her if she ever
45:41
Speaker 5: shows up on my screen again. There are people who
45:43
Speaker 5: are actually open to reason, and I think one of
45:45
Speaker 5: the biggest disservices we do to audiences, particularly reality TV
45:49
Speaker 5: show audiences, is that we don't admit... that on reality TV,
45:52
Speaker 5: people do get a chance to reinvent themselves. No matter how,
45:55
Speaker 5: Kim Kardashian, hello.
45:57
Speaker 3: That's a great point.
45:58
Speaker 5: Are we kidding right now?
45:59
Speaker 3: Great point.
46:00
Speaker 5: There are folks who despise Kim Kardashian who are now
46:03
Speaker 5: wearing skims.
46:04
Speaker 3: Yeah.
46:05
Speaker 5: So there was an opportunity. I think it's lazy and
46:07
Speaker 5: defeatist to act like just because two of the groups
46:10
Speaker 5: don't like you, that the third never existed because the
46:12
Speaker 5: third could have actually fought for you. Now you put
46:15
Speaker 5: us all in the predicament, dummy.
46:16
Speaker 6: Sorry.
46:17
Speaker 3: Great point, boo. Agreed.
46:20
Speaker 4: She blew her chance. All these years, it was what
46:24
Speaker 4: other people were saying about you and we weren't really
46:26
Speaker 4: hearing from you outside of your little whack-ass interviews on
46:28
Speaker 4: some blogger's site, right? You finally have the floor. You're
46:31
Speaker 4: finally on camera. You finally got to sign a release
46:34
Speaker 4: and maybe a little check. And you're finally here and
46:37
Speaker 4: you finally get your chance. And this is what you do.
46:40
Speaker 4: This is like, were you not rehearsing? Were you not
46:43
Speaker 4: going over? Did you not put any thought into how
46:45
Speaker 4: you were going to come out and just show up?
46:48
Speaker 4: She came out so defensive. I don't know who that's
46:52
Speaker 4: speaking to. I don't know who can resonate with that
46:54
Speaker 4: and feel for her. I think people want to have
46:58
Speaker 4: it both ways. They want to be a badass and
47:00
Speaker 4: do the thing and be the side chick and I
47:02
Speaker 4: don't give a damn. My man, my man, my man.
47:05
Speaker 4: And they also don't want to get criticism for it.
47:07
Speaker 4: They want it to be pain-free. Sometimes you got to
47:10
Speaker 4: just like take the L, swallow your pride, maybe have
47:13
Speaker 4: a couple of episodes, maybe three episodes of it being uncomfortable.
47:17
Speaker 4: And then when you get on the other side of it,
47:18
Speaker 4: you can reinvent yourself or you can recalibrate. But she
47:22
Speaker 4: came in there like a bitch and she was rude
47:26
Speaker 4: and she was mean and there was no redeeming qualities
47:28
Speaker 4: about her. And then she couldn't even force a tear. Listen,
47:30
Speaker 4: I know bad acting. Like I say, I do it
47:31
Speaker 4: all the time on Tubi.
47:33
Speaker 2: Eyebrows on them. Yeah.
47:39
Speaker 3: Don't look off to the side, Claudia.
47:45
Speaker 4: The way you cry in a scene, okay?
47:51
Speaker 3: It was just like when Kim Zolciak was listening to
47:53
Speaker 3: all them illnesses and Andy was like, so did you have?
48:01
Speaker 3: It was just like that. I was like, where is it?
48:04
Speaker 3: Y'all going to do it. Go on and order that
48:06
Speaker 3: shit you got to smell to make you cry. Go
48:08
Speaker 3: in and order that so when you get in the confessional,
48:10
Speaker 3: we can at least think you tried.
48:13
Speaker 4: I have a tip. I can help you, Arianne. So I, too,
48:17
Speaker 4: struggle with crying on cue because it's really hard. I'm
48:19
Speaker 4: no Angela Bassett. I know where I stand on the
48:21
Speaker 4: food chain of acting. So there's a couple tips you
48:23
Speaker 4: can use if you want to make yourself cry. Aspiring actors,
48:26
Speaker 4: pay attention. So what I do is I get some
48:29
Speaker 4: liquid soap and I put it on my fingertips or
48:31
Speaker 4: underneath my nail. So if I don't want to cry
48:33
Speaker 4: at the beginning of the scene, I don't touch my
48:35
Speaker 4: eye until I need like about... six or seven seconds
48:38
Speaker 4: before I need the tear. So Sam talking, Justin, me
48:41
Speaker 4: and you were talking.
48:41
Speaker 3: Yeah.
48:42
Speaker 4: I just, I don't like where this is going. I
48:44
Speaker 4: just feel like you're not taking me seriously.
48:46
Speaker 3: Yeah.
48:47
Speaker 4: While you're talking, you talk, do your part.
48:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, yeah. No, I love Arianne and we chose
48:53
Speaker 3: each other. And, you know, this is, we're doing good
48:55
Speaker 3: with the co-parenting. And, you know, I love her, man.
48:59
Speaker 3: I'm thinking about marriage.
49:01
Speaker 4: I touch my eye with the soap. And if I
49:04
Speaker 4: stare off to the side into a light long enough,
49:05
Speaker 4: it won't blink.
49:08
Speaker 3: Technique, y'all.
49:09
Speaker 4: Well, hold on.
49:10
Speaker 3: Just give me a minute. Claudia, please.
49:12
Speaker 4: It's coming.
49:17
Speaker 1: Wait, hold on.
49:19
Speaker 3: See? What is happening? Same exact thing we saw. The
49:23
Speaker 3: same thing we saw in that confessional chair.
49:25
Speaker 4: My nose got red there.
49:27
Speaker 5: Oh, my nose is getting red.
49:29
Speaker 3: Oh, my God. Good job, Claudia.
49:35
Speaker 5: She's about to do that for the reunion. Watch the reunion. Carlos,
49:37
Speaker 5: wash her hands at the reunion. Watch them.
49:40
Speaker 3: Carlos, how hard was y'all laughing when y'all seen the
49:42
Speaker 3: raw cut of Arianne?
49:44
Speaker 1: I am not talking about it.
49:46
Speaker 3: How hard was y'all laughing?
49:50
Speaker 4: And if you don't have time, right? If you pluck
49:53
Speaker 4: one of your nose hairs with tweezers, it'll make you cry, Arianne.
49:56
Speaker 4: I got you, girlfriend. See, I'm a girl's girl. Y'all
49:59
Speaker 4: be thinking I'm hating. I'm trying to help a side
50:00
Speaker 4: hoe out.
50:00
Speaker 5: You're not helping a side hoe out. So Claudia, your mother,
50:06
Speaker 5: your mother, by the way, we asked about my mom.
50:08
Speaker 5: Are you comfortable mentioning about your mother's reaction to, because,
50:15
Speaker 5: you know, we bond over that.
50:17
Speaker 4: So my mom was the wife. She was the wife.
50:20
Speaker 5: How she did with it. Yeah.
50:21
Speaker 4: So my father brought her over from Italy and then started,
50:26
Speaker 4: he kissed somebody else at the wedding. And so he
50:28
Speaker 4: started like, I used to hear conversations on the phone
50:31
Speaker 4: with the mistress and I found the nightgown in the house.
50:36
Speaker 4: So I was 10 years old and I had to
50:37
Speaker 4: tell my mom like what I heard and I had
50:40
Speaker 4: to like kind of break a heart a little bit.
50:42
Speaker 4: So yeah, that's what, so I have a very strong,
50:44
Speaker 4: so when anyone tries to accuse me of being a
50:46
Speaker 4: side chick or that I would ever mess with a
50:49
Speaker 4: married man, I'm like, if you only knew my origin story,
50:51
Speaker 4: you would know how strongly I feel about that. Like,
50:53
Speaker 4: I've almost gotten violent with people. When married men try
50:58
Speaker 4: to hit on me, I get so mad that you
51:00
Speaker 4: think that I'm okay with that. And your mom didn't know.
51:02
Speaker 4: It's one thing to not know, but when you know,
51:04
Speaker 4: and listen, you're from Huntsville, Alabama, and you didn't know
51:08
Speaker 4: Martell Holt was married on the most popular show, the
51:11
Speaker 4: only show.
51:13
Speaker 2: It was before the show though.
51:16
Speaker 4: Okay, but you were in a small town, right?
51:18
Speaker 2: Small town.
51:19
Speaker 5: No, he was a local celebrity, Carlos. He was a
51:20
Speaker 5: local celebrity, can.
51:21
Speaker 3: We be honest?
51:21
Speaker 2: I just wanted to clarify before the show.
51:23
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was with Claudia in terms of when
51:27
Speaker 1: I met the Holtz three years prior to doing the
51:30
Speaker 1: show with them, from my understanding.
51:33
Speaker 2: As a journalist, I did.
51:37
Speaker 1: They were definitely.
51:41
Speaker 2: prominent figures.
51:42
Speaker 3: Well known. Thank you.
51:43
Speaker 5: Everybody knew. And mind you, by the way, baby, you
51:46
Speaker 5: 35 now. You're old enough to have a geriatric pregnancy.
51:49
Speaker 5: Can we put the young girl thing to bed? Can
51:51
Speaker 5: we stop with the I was a young girl?
51:54
Speaker 4: The girls we use in that young thing, oh, this
51:57
Speaker 4: goofy young, when they want to get a pass on.
51:59
Speaker 4: And again, we keep giving it to Arianne and she
52:02
Speaker 4: deserves it. But Martel, you are just as guilty, if
52:06
Speaker 4: not more. You're the one that made value.
52:07
Speaker 5: We've been lashing him, though.
52:08
Speaker 3: He's used to being lashed.
52:09
Speaker 5: We've been lashed, Martel.
52:10
Speaker 1: Speaking of that, I do want to get to this
52:14
Speaker 1: one thing, too. What did y'all think of the conversation
52:17
Speaker 1: between Marceau and his brother, Maurice? where Maurice did ask
52:22
Speaker 1: Marceau if he was happy in his marriage. And Marceau
52:26
Speaker 1: pretty much was saying how, you know, look, they are married.
52:32
Speaker 1: They go along to get along and really made it
52:35
Speaker 1: seem like it was just something that was there versus
52:41
Speaker 1: something that, you know, was sort of like nourished for them.
52:49
Speaker 3: I thought that what they should have been doing, first
52:51
Speaker 3: of all, Marceau should have been working while he was
52:53
Speaker 3: talking because they got to finish Jordan Lane and Kimmy
52:56
Speaker 3: is obviously at her wit's end with all that shit, period.
52:59
Speaker 3: That's why she was in Maurice's ass like that at
53:01
Speaker 3: the table when they was discussing Whitehall, right? So I
53:04
Speaker 3: thought Marceau, I didn't name everybody on the goddamn show
53:08
Speaker 3: except who I'm talking about. I thought Marceau should have
53:11
Speaker 3: absolutely been working while they were talking. And listen, he
53:14
Speaker 3: didn't do anything in that conversation to make people believe
53:18
Speaker 3: in The state of their union, I personally think Marcel
53:22
Speaker 3: and Tisha are doing just fine. They're just getting on
53:25
Speaker 3: each other's nerves right now, and they just lost that house.
53:27
Speaker 3: And when financial shit happens in a relationship, you be
53:30
Speaker 3: mad at each other for a minute. You know what
53:32
Speaker 3: I'm saying? And I just think that's where they're at
53:34
Speaker 3: with it. I don't think they're in danger of a
53:39
Speaker 3: eureka moment in their marriage that's going to change the
53:42
Speaker 3: way that they operate. They all right. and finish the
53:45
Speaker 3: Kimmy's restaurant because I want to know about the food.
53:47
Speaker 3: I want to know the decor. Like, I'm so curious
53:50
Speaker 3: about Jordan Lane. So get done, Marceau. Shit. That's it.
53:54
Speaker 2: All right.
53:54
Speaker 1: Blue has a flight to catch. Final, because Blue has
53:58
Speaker 1: a flight to catch. First of all, safe travels, Blue.
54:01
Speaker 1: Ain't nothing like a good old red eye.
54:04
Speaker 6: All right.
54:04
Speaker 2: So Blue, your final words and then I'll let you go.
54:09
Speaker 5: My final words are, I hope you recognize in my story,
54:12
Speaker 5: my mother was the mistress in Claudia's story Her mother
54:15
Speaker 5: was the one who was dealing with an outside situation.
54:18
Speaker 5: And you see how the women didn't have to attack
54:21
Speaker 5: each other. I just need you to understand there always
54:25
Speaker 5: was another option. And so if there's nothing else that
54:28
Speaker 5: we get, if there's any birds who are watching this
54:31
Speaker 5: who are open to finding new ways, there's very few
54:35
Speaker 5: things in this world that a little bit of sincerity
54:37
Speaker 5: and a ton of accountability and time can't fix. Even
54:40
Speaker 5: if people are determined to misunderstand you, You can always
54:43
Speaker 5: course correct to the people whose hearts are open. And
54:45
Speaker 5: I am hoping at some point when this gimmick runs out,
54:48
Speaker 5: maybe for the reunion when the soap trick that Claudia
54:51
Speaker 5: taught is used, we'll see the human side of Arianne
54:55
Speaker 5: and not the unpaid actress who's allegedly on a reality show.
55:00
Speaker 2: And Spirit of Wetness, your candles, Blue Centric Shop, before

55:26
Speaker 5: Please send me travel mercies because it's raining right now.
55:29
Speaker 2: Safe travels, baby. Thank y'all for Blue.
55:33
Speaker 1: Claudia, your thoughts on Marcel and Marie's conversation. Are you
55:39
Speaker 1: concerned about the state of Marcel and Tisha's marriage based
55:42
Speaker 1: on that conversation?
55:45
Speaker 4: A little bit, because the end of last season, it
55:47
Speaker 4: seemed like that started then, right? And I was like, ooh, okay.
55:50
Speaker 4: But then again, you just never know what's storyline and
55:52
Speaker 4: what's real. But from what we see on television, I
55:56
Speaker 4: was like, ooh, that's like the second time he didn't
55:58
Speaker 4: kind of allude to not really being that happy. So
56:03
Speaker 4: that's really not a good sign. But then again, maybe
56:07
Speaker 4: they're just being transparent and giving us what they're supposed
56:09
Speaker 4: to give, because you're not supposed to sit there and
56:11
Speaker 4: act fake and I mean, even in the healthiest of relationships,
56:15
Speaker 4: you go through times where you're sick of each other.
56:17
Speaker 4: I mean, I went on a reality show. My guy
56:19
Speaker 4: at the time said he wasn't feeling sexually attracted to
56:21
Speaker 4: me at the time. And I wasn't either, except that
56:24
Speaker 4: I was lying. I was trying to protect him in
56:26
Speaker 4: that moment. You know what I mean? And I even
56:28
Speaker 4: told him, say the truth. And you should. I think
56:31
Speaker 4: that makes you more believable. And even, again, like I said,
56:35
Speaker 4: in happy couples, there may be times where one falls
56:38
Speaker 4: out of love with the other one and then you
56:39
Speaker 4: get back on track. I think you can't be with
56:42
Speaker 4: someone for 20 years, 15 years, whatever, without going through
56:45
Speaker 4: a phase. It's not always going to be rainbows and
56:47
Speaker 4: butterflies consistently throughout. Sometimes they do shit that you're like,
56:50
Speaker 4: I don't know about this anymore. And then you get
56:52
Speaker 4: back right.
56:54
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.
56:55
Speaker 1: No, look, so there's a scene because, you know, one
56:59
Speaker 1: of the perks about you guys talking to me live is.
57:03
Speaker 1: and off camera, is the fact that y'all give exclusive tea.
57:07
Speaker 1: There is a scene this season between Tisha and Marceau that.
57:15
Speaker 1: Shocked me to my core based on the depths of
57:18
Speaker 1: the conversations that they were having in regards to the
57:23
Speaker 1: state of their marriage. So this scene that we saw
57:27
Speaker 1: in this past Saturday's episode was just the beginning of
57:30
Speaker 1: what's to come. And it's super sad.
57:34
Speaker 2: It's like... sad based on their conversation.
57:39
Speaker 1: Oh, it's, I watched it twice just because you're not
57:42
Speaker 1: like you watch things for the first time and you're
57:44
Speaker 1: like shocked. And you, and after, and you're like, wait
57:47
Speaker 1: a minute, did I miss something? Like, did I really
57:50
Speaker 1: watch what I thought I watched? And I watched it again.
57:52
Speaker 1: And I'm like, and what's so interesting is they are,
58:00
Speaker 1: they're saying things that they never said before.
58:05
Speaker 2: I'm trying to be your mama. So, look, I can't
58:11
Speaker 2: wait for you guys to see that. It's a great scene. Listen,
58:14
Speaker 2: great conversation tonight.
58:17
