My Husband Was Getting "Serviced" At Work! | KARAMO

In this episode of The Karamo Show, host Karamo mediates a volatile dispute between Shawnte and her husband Marcus, who have been married for eight months. Shawnte alleges that Marcus is cheating, citing a voicemail that sounds like oral sex, a mysterious three‑minute FaceTime call, and his frequent absences after receiving a new car, which she later forced him to give up and ride the bus. She also admits to repeatedly checking his phone while he sleeps, claiming distrust. Marcus denies wrongdoing, saying the FaceTime was with his mother and that he was at home on the disputed date, supported by investigators who examined his phone, deleted messages, GPS data, and FaceTime logs. The show brings in an ex, G. Calvin, who confirms Shawnte once slept in his bed, adding another layer of alleged infidelity. Throughout the segment, Karamo interrogates both parties, highlights inconsistencies, and ultimately labels the relationship toxic and codependent, advising the couple to end the marriage and part as friends. The episode showcases typical talk‑show conflict dynamics: accusations, investigative evidence, ex testimonies, and a host’s moral judgment.
Chapters
So please tell me about the recordings. What did you hear?
It was a voicemail sound like somebody was giving him oral sex.
Mm-hmm.
So why are you sure it was him if it was just a voicemail? Could you hear him clearly?
Because he got a distinct laugh and there's no one that laughs like Marcus.
So you heard him laughing in this moment as well?
Yes.
Mm. So you had a problem with the car that Marcus was driving, right?
Yes, I had a big problem with the car he had, drop top. When he got that car, he just thought he was it. He started staying out. So I made him take that car back and ride the bus. So now he's riding the bus to work. So ladies, if you have a problem with your man like that, make him ride the bus.
Hold on, so he made this man get on the bus?
Absolutely.
And he agreed?
Yes.
Okay, then do you still get your car?
Yes.
Okay. How bad has the trust been in your marriage?
Real bad.
Mm-hmm.
He don't trust me and I don't trust him.
Mm.
We don't trust one another.
And how long the trust been bad?
5 months.
'Cause how long y'all been married?
We've been married 8 months.
So married 8 months, the trust is bad for 5 months of those.
It's really bad.
How long have y'all been together?
Well, when we met each other, we got married.
So you only met each other 8 months ago?
Yes.
Okay. This is a layer I did not know. Okay. So you've been together less than a year?
Yes.
Okay. So why don't you trust him then if y'all got together just less than a year ago, already married? Why do you feel like he could be doing something?
He's not coming home. He lying.
What'd he lie about?
He's not showing up at work once he got the car. He's about to lose his job.
Where did he say he was?
He said he was out with some friends.
Got it. And why doesn't he trust you?
I say stuff, I tell him I'm doing this and that.
Oh, okay. Like what do you—
Because I know he doing something.
Are you doing stuff?
No, I'm not.
Okay, so you're not doing anything but you tell him you are?
Yeah.
Like what kind of stuff you telling him that you're doing?
I told him I messed with my ex when I went home and visited, but I didn't.
Mm-hmm. So y'all are just playing a ping pong game of tit for tat. I'mma go. Okay, I mean, that's 8 months, but I mean, I'm talking about, I'm not saying that math ain't math. I'm talking about the math that's not mathin' is the how you get married, have a relationship, and do all this, and it's only been 8 months and y'all done already broke up 3 months. So y'all were broken up for 3 months?
Yes, Karamo.
And I mean, you look very young and have beautiful skin, but you're 10 years his senior, correct?
Yes.
Okay, so there's an age difference. Do you think there's something with that? Like maybe he wasn't ready?
Yes, I do. And I say it to him all the time, but he say he ready.
Okay, okay. Well, he gotta be ready. Y'all married now. Okay, so you know, Marcus handed over his phone to our investigators and what do you want me to find out?
I wanna find out is he talking to his exes?
Mm-hmm.
Is he cheating and who he cheating with?
Okay, okay.
And if he is, I'm gonna end the marriage.
Hmm, okay. 'Cause you told my investigators that you also wanna know where did he go those times that he disappears? On August 3rd, one of them specifically. And who has Marcus been FaceTiming? What's going on with the FaceTiming?
August the 3rd, he was on the phone FaceTiming with someone, but it was just for 3 minutes. But he was like it was his mom, but I don't think so. I think it was his ex.
Mm. So did you walk in the house and then all of a sudden he cut off the phone or something?
No, I went through the phone myself.
Oh, and you saw the 3-minute FaceTime? But wouldn't you have saw that mom next to him?
I took his hand while he was asleep and put his hand on it and unlocked his phone.
Now, Miss Shante.
I kept trying to—
Now, Miss Shante, now you know I love to unlock a phone, but that's dirty. You took it? You took his phone? Yes, I did.
Yes, I did. I do it all the time.
Not do it all the time.
Yes, I do.
So you do this all the time where you just take his phone in his sleep and like put his thumb on his?
Yes.
Why do you do that?
Because I don't trust him.
Okay. But you do the same thing you said.
No, I ain't doing nothing.
Okay.
I ain't doing nothing.
But you make the accusation. But you tell him that you're doing it.
Yes, I do.
Yes.
I do tell him I'm doing it. Because I'm mad, I'm upset.
Okay.
And I'm hurt.
Okay, I get that, I understand that. But you're saying you don't stay out. You're at home every night and you feel like he stays out.
Well, I stayed out last week.
Oh, hold on, you know what? It's time to hear Marcus' side of this story. So everyone please welcome Marcus on out.
Okay. You know I don't have my car. If I go to the store and I'm walking back, she calls me. So where you at?
Okay, so when I got—
So where you at? I'm like, I've gotta walk, it's hot outside.
I'm in Alabama.
Okay, so when I got that phone call, And you supposed to been on your break then. That's when it sound like you was getting oral sex.
Wow. I don't know what to say about that.
You said, "Can I get a sample next?" We got a full cafeteria at my job.
And they got samples sometimes.
Everything else going on out there too.
People eating might sound like some certain thing. I don't know what she heard. She let me hear what she heard.
Okay, well you took my phone and tore my phone up.
I don't know nothing about it.
So that's why I got a new phone. Because you didn't want me to bring that phone to this show.
You got a new phone, you gotta do it at the show? That happened way before the show.
No, I know it.
Mm-mm. Hold on. So I gotta go back because you just said, you know, when you're at work, you know, you don't have a car now because we found out she made you get back the car. How did that make you feel?
I honestly feel like it's a big issue. I mean, we haven't been married a real long time and just the way that she don't trust me at all and I—
But you don't give me no reason to trust you.
I feel like I wanna trust my wife, but she says things and she's like— But I say things because I'm upset. Every woman says this when they married their husband. I'm like, no, just you. As far as I know, you the only one that's gonna say the things that you say to me.
What's some of the things you say to me? I need to ask my audience, all the women in here, if you're in a relationship and you get mad at your man, raise your hand if you actually will tell him you're cheating on him to get back at him. No. I see one person, she said, she said I do, but everybody else said no. So you got one lone soldier over there that says she doing that with you. But everybody else says they're not telling they man if they're mad that they're cheating. That's like, it seems a little extreme, right?
Yeah.
Okay. Well listen, it's time to unlock your phone. Shawntay, you wanted to know again, 'cause I wanna clarify, you want to know if Marcus is still talking to his ex? His ex. Since you've been married, Marcus has stayed out 4 times.
And August the 3rd was the last time he was out.
And most recent was on August the 3rd and he didn't come home and called outta work. So you wanna know where he went. You also wanna know who Marcus has been FaceTiming, correct?
Yes.
Okay then. Well listen, it's time to unlock the phone.
Oh, let's start this off.
All right, so Shawnte, first you wanted to find out if Marcus is still talking to his ex.
Mm-hmm.
Marcus, you denied it. My Unlock the Phone investigators searched through Marcus's texts. And he is telling the truth. There's been no communication at all with his ex.
You wanna just think what you wanna think.
You erased.
They unlocked the phone.
By the way, let you know, we go through messages that are deleted.
Yeah.
If it could be stored, we gonna find it, okay?
I tried to tell you all this time, you just letting things get to you and get in your head. "You got a good man, but you don't wanna believe that." I said, "Okay, you gonna run me off." Well, next, Shante, you want to know where he went on August 3rd.
Marcus, you said you were working. My unlock the phone investigator searched through his GPS and found that he was telling the truth. On August 3rd, he was at home.
I tried to tell y'all that. I ain't doing nothing wrong. Just 'cause I got no time to do nothing don't mean I'm doing things on you.
Yeah, right.
I tried to tell you that.
Oh, so I'm keeping you from coming home?
Ain't nothing keeping me from coming home. I come home, then you just get mad, so I wanna leave home.
You don't come. Especially when you had that car.
Well, Shanta, you want to know who Marcus was FaceTiming with for 3 minutes. Marcus said it was his mother. My investigators searched Marcus's apps to make sure who he was talking to. And Marcus is telling the truth. He was speaking to his mother on that day.
You know how you feel about this. You know how me and my mama talk all the time.
Yeah.
I talk to my mama every day at night and stuff. So I be trying to talk to my mom, make sure everything good, what she got going on.
I have found plenty of stuff on your phone before.
Marcus, you wanted me to unlock Shanta's phone as well, but you refused.
You see? No. You see?
No, I dropped my phone. I dropped my phone in the toilet. So I didn't drop my phone in the toilet.
I don't know what you talking about, man.
When they was finna get my phone.
I don't know if you dropped it in the toilet or not. Look at how convenient that was. She know I gotta turn my phone in. I just said I want her phone searched too. All of a sudden, I step out the bathroom, her phone drop in the toilet. But she just fished it right out. Phone still work now.
So the phone works, then why did you wanna give it to us?
You see what I'm saying? She want, I wanna drag.
You got that little, don't think I don't catch that little laugh you got going on.
I had to drag.
Yeah. Uh-huh.
You know what it's like, soon it fell in the toilet.
I had to stick my hand in that door.
I'm trying to tell you.
Okay.
And did I want to dry it with no blow dryer?
Well, with a little digging, we were able to actually track down Shawnte's ex, G. Calvin. And G. Calvin is here today. G. Calvin, come on out. Since we couldn't unlock her phone, Marcus believes that you had sex with his wife Shawnte. So I gotta know from you. Tell me straight up since we can't get through the phone, so you the source.
She did sleep in my bed.
Okay.
Okay, so that's what it is, but You slept in the bed and what? I slept on the sofa.
All right.
Bro, I never met you before, so, you know, but marriage is something serious to me, you know what I'm saying? I got her something to eat, bought her a ticket, and she went back home. It was nothing. Now I've been knowing her for a long time, but you know, marriage has got something to do with God and I don't play with it like that, you know what I'm saying? But also I've been knowing her long enough to know that she a handful. I already know what you going through.
All right.
You know what I'm saying?
All right.
Bro, it ain't nothing that I got anything to do with this. Is other than telling you what I already said. But, Shanta, you need to lighten up. You need to lighten up. I mean, if that don't prove nothing to you, come on.
Do you think that this is a healthy relationship? And since you said you've been there before, normally I would never involve an ex and somebody else, but you give me context. When y'all were together, did she act like this?
She better now.
She's better now?
Yeah.
That's messed up. That's really messed up right there.
What I mean is—
Hold on, you said this is better?
Yeah, what I'm saying is, what I'm saying is. Hold on, hold on.
Paul, are you saying her behavior now is better than when she was with you?
Yeah, I mean, I caught her.
I'm not supposed to believe all that stuff.
I mean, what I'm saying is, look, we better off friends than we was together.
Yes, of course.
You know what I'm saying? And that's cool with me.
But was she doing these type of things, like where she's checking phones and accusing you like not trusting you, accusing you of stuff?
She ain't gonna believe nobody.
She's not gonna believe anybody?
No, but she a good person and everything. She just always on her toes. A lot of that got to do with other relationships and stuff she done had, you know what I'm saying? But—
Well, before I let you go, is there anything else you wanna say to him?
If y'all gonna try, try, but start out with some trust first, you know? I think you need to just start over. Just try to work it out.
Okay, what do you wanna say to him?
Thanks for your honesty, man.
That's what's up.
So, I mean, she said something completely different.
Well, look, about 2 weeks ago we came on this show, she said something different. That's what I mean by she was cheating.
And then I turned around and told you the truth.
Which one you gonna believe?
She said I slept with my ex. She literally said that.
And then I turned around and told you the truth.
I don't know what the truth is.
No, I said that because you told me.
Well, he ain't got no reason to lie. He could come here, I mean, he could definitely like—
Real talk. Well, I wasn't trying to get into nobody's shit. I told the truth though, bro.
Yeah.
And I wish y'all look.
Listen, well, thank you. I appreciate being here. Thank you. I appreciate you being here. You a mess.
It's another ex that came. I ain't never met this dude or heard but nothing but what she told me. He come outta nowhere. I know we on TV. I ain't know this dude was gonna pop up.
Oh yeah.
And he gonna tell me this, then she told me that. So why I supposed to be at Karamo?
I get it. Well, that's the reason that I said let's get him here because if we can't get him on the phone last minute, then we gotta figure out to get the truth somehow for you because at the end of the day, there needs to be answers.
I had to go to court down in my hometown, so that's how I wound up there.
I get it.
So I had to stay there that night.
But you do realize you set the trust issues in motion when you started to sleep at your ex's house.
Yes.
So all these things that happened here.
But he slept with his ex.
Did you sleep with your ex?
She ain't got no proof of that. I did sleep.
You told me.
She ain't got no proof of that.
Did you sleep with her?
Just be honest.
We was broke up for like 2 weeks. Now it's like the marriage over anyway.
So you did sleep with her?
Yeah.
Yes, he told me that before we came to, he knew we was coming on the show.
He let you know? He told me. 'Cause he knew it was gonna be on the phone.
It just happened 'cause I was put out, didn't have nowhere to go.
So let's be honest, this relationship is toxic. Toxic. And I'm not sure what love there was. It sounds like there was a codependency of something that you all needed. You were in a hard time and y'all found something to latch onto. But I don't know what that thing was. But whatever it was that y'all latched onto has fizzled and died. And this is just turning more and more unhealthy. Y'all are in 8 months. Y'all supposed to be in honeymoon phase right now. This is supposed to be happy times, Let's discover each other. Let's build our lives together. And y'all over here arguing on the Karamo Show.
Because it seem like every day. Karamo, every day is breakup to makeup.
Do you even know each other?
Yeah. Yes.
Let me tell y'all something. If y'all want my advice, call it a day and end this relationship right now. Y'all be better off as friends. This ain't gonna work. And I think at the core, both of y'all know this is not gonna work. I know you love her and I know you love him, but at the end of the day, if y'all are here, if y'all been together for 8 months, then already broke up for 3 months, this is already on the wrong path. You hear me? I wish y'all the best of luck, sincerely. Do you love The Karamo Show? Yes. Well, we're back for season 2, so make sure to subscribe to The Karamo Show.
