In this segment of The Karamo Show, Roy openly acknowledges that he is the biological father of a young man named London, expresses remorse for past ignorance, and states his desire to build a relationship with his son. Karamo responds by affirming Roy’s sincerity but redirects the conversation toward concrete, consistent actions rather than merely expressed intentions. He emphasizes that rebuilding trust requires ongoing effort, proactive outreach, and tangible work, guiding Roy to focus on what he does moving forward to repair the father‑son bond.
Whatever it is, say, I'm still here. Whether you want me here or not, if you feel like you want me here, I'm here. London, Roy, you are the biological father.
I see you breathing a sigh of relief. Roy, is there anything you wanna say in this moment? You now have confidence.
I know he's angry at me. I apologize because I didn't know. I'm here for him. I'm sorry. Like I said, if he want to build a relationship with me, I'm here.
Yeah. So I wanna guide you in something because one of the language that you just said, though, The intention was good is misguided. It's not if he wants to build a relationship. Everything that's going to go from this point on is your actions, your work. So you want to build a relationship and you're gonna do everything.
Yes, I do.
Because that's gonna be the only thing that's gonna let him know that he can trust that maybe we can get to see eye to eye. So it's not about him because he's gonna have his pain, his hurt, and he's gonna need you to say, even through this pain and hurt, I'm still gonna show up for you because the little boy that was in him, like I acknowledge within you, needed someone to reach out and say, I'm yours, you're mine, I'm here for you. So in this moment, I think a lot of times parents say, you know what, if he wanna reach out, I'm here. It's the opposite. You gotta reach out. You gotta hit him up every day. You gotta let him know you're there.
