Take a seat for me, girl, 'cause I need to know about this cranberry sauce.
Okay.
I understand. First, let me, before we get to cranberry sauce, how did you two meet?
I was driving down on the highway in Florida. This car just kept going side by side in the front of me, and I'm just like, what is going on? And I eventually rolled down my window and I'm like, hey. He's like, hey shorty, what's up? And I'm like, And I end up giving him my number, but—
Not from road rage to a love affair.
Yeah.
Now I gotta back up. Tell me about this cranberry sauce.
Okay, so on Thanksgiving Day, I was literally making jokes all day about cranberry sauce. I'm like, that's old people stuff. You know, you put with the stuffing and stuff like that.
And— That's my jam, so don't talk about cranberry sauce 'cause I ain't old yet, but anyway.
And then eventually, It went from when sitting the kids down to actually eating, he goes off, he's like, "Don't say that, you're spoiling their appetite." And I'm just like, "Lower your voice when you talking to me." And he sent you to jail for that? No. So the next day is actually the day I actually went to jail.
Got it.
So I gets up, From that day, he's already thinking I'm mad and I'm not mad. But we're in the bed and he's deliberately, you know, smoking, but I think he's doing it on purpose where the fumes are landing on the bed and so I can feel like the air coming out the air mattress. And so I say, well, you know what? I might as well just get up and deflate them all. So I got a knife out the kitchen and I went to go deflate one and he was like, why would you do that? So he calls the police on me and I'm like, I know where you going with this 'cause he has called the police on me numerous times. This is not the first time.
Wow.
In the 3 years, how many times do you think he's called the police on you?
I would say about maybe 10.
10 times.
Yeah.
10 times. Okay. This is a sad situation. So I wanna go now to the cheating. When did you find out that he could have been cheating on you?
He's been cheating on me since day one that I met him with his kids' mother. One stayed before I actually moved in with him. One of his kids' mother was just moving from that house.
Okay.
And He cheated with her. I ended up one day going to North Carolina. I had to go to North Carolina to take my mom her car back. And I was skeptical about leaving my car to let him use it because his car was down. So he takes my car to go see his kid's mother and tells me when I come back that he had sex in my car.
And how long into the relationship was this?
This is not even a year in.
This is not even a year in?
Yes.
And I just need to just to be clear, how many women does he have children with?
4.
4 women. 4 women. Okay. Only reason I'm saying that is because if he's admitting to cheating with one, are you suspicious that maybe there could be others that he's cheating with? Or is it just this one?
Oh, well, going through his phone, yeah, there was other women then besides his kids' mother.
Kids' mothers. Okay.
Yeah. Through it all, I still love him, but a part of me wants to depart. Excuse me.
No, you're okay.
Because I'm tired and I feel like he manipulates me or he blames me for things that is really him. Like a narcissist. He's a narcissist.
Yeah.
Mm-hmm. And—
Let me get some of these for you, girl. Here you go, love.
And I don't like it. And then he, there's times where he tell his daughter to be disrespectful to me. And like, I raised, I've been raising her for 3 years now. She is disrespectful to me. But you know. How old is she? She's 16.
16, okay.
But you know, me and her, we talk and I tell her, you know, you're not supposed to do this. But when we have our fight, It's like he's okay with telling her to disrespect me. And I said, this is why she won't stop doing what she's doing because you're making it, you tell her to say it.
Well everyone, I think it's time to hear Kenny's side of the story. So everyone, let's welcome your boyfriend or fiancé, boyfriend Kenny to the show.
Say, shorty, for real?
You for real? Yes, I'm for real.
You for real? First of all, let's get an understanding, right? So you could understand the whole true story about my baby mother so we could get this out in the air now. Stop.
No.
Stop.
Okay.
Please.
I was done with that relationship. That was been over with. I waited, just like I, please, just like I told her family, I waited for her to get her stuff and able to leave. I wasn't gonna drive 2.5 hours for no one. The plan was for me to be with my daughter.
First of all, question. Welcome to the show, first of all.
I appreciate you, my bad.
No, no, you're fine. I'm glad that you were able to say your piece. This is what this is a place for, for you to be able to share your side as well. But I think the question I have is I understand there was plans to be made, but how did those plans get intertwined with having sex with her?
What happened was I went out to my kid's birthday party. There was no sex. I said that to her because I was pissed off at her.
Right.
And it's because of the—
You do it deliberately.
Stop, stop, stop, stop. You stop. Stop. You talk about, you talk about, you talk about you. Listen, Shorty, Shorty, it's not us. Right now you want to, we gonna keep going back. We gonna keep going back. You wanna keep going there. We gonna put it there. Okay, so I got there because I said— Okay, from the cranberry sauce. That was Thanksgiving Day. That was Thanksgiving Day. You didn't get, wait, stop. You didn't get locked up December 9th.
No, I didn't get locked up December 9th. November 26th, his present. You're wrong.
I'm telling you you're wrong. 'Cause you want me to tell you what happened?
I have the paperwork.
You waited. I went to work for 2 days straight. You got mad over cranberry sauce. You held that in for 2 days. You held that in for 2 days.
So I ask you a question. Ask you a question. Because regardless of the date, you sent the woman you're dating to jail over—
No, no, it wasn't over cranberry sauce. It's the point of principle. She got up. You picked up a knife. It's a difference. Oh, I really— my kids, them kids, them kids. I don't care what anybody say.
I said it.
I don't care what you say.
I said a thing.
First of all, you threatened— you walked up on my child, you threatened my child.
You told her to be disrespectful. And I have said it numerous times.
First of all, you want to talk about being disrespectful? Can we start, please? Can we start?
But I never have put my hands on my child.
I want this man to— I need this man opinion. Because I feel like you wanna be, you call it disrespectful, right? I feel a child speaks her mind. Okay, I go to work, right? My child will be in the house. She will get up and stop what she doing. Hey, how was work? How's your day? Speak, acknowledge an adult as a child is supposed to, as we would grow up. I was taught that. Hush your mouth. Hush your mouth now. 'Cause as my mother taught me, when an adult walk in the house, A child's supposed to acknowledge that adult has a—
She always do that.
Please, please stop. Please stop, please stop, please stop.
You stop.
You asked me to speak and I'm going to speak. You had your time.
I didn't ask you to speak. You supposed to be speaking your truth.
So then why are you talking to me?
Because I supposed to.
I'm not talking, but I'm talking, I'm speaking my truth.
How many children are you raising together? 'Cause I hear your child that's 16. How many other children are you raising together?
Okay, there's 4.
4 of them together.
So this is where the whole situation— 3 are yours.
They're from a different relationship, one is yours. [Speaker] Right. [Speaker] Okay, explain that.
[Speaker] So this is the situation. I feel like this. Even when you're home, when your child wakes up in the morning, first thing the child's supposed to say is good morning, as my mama say. If an adult walks in the room and they say good morning to you, you supposed to speak back. Am I right or wrong? [Speaker:AUDIENCE] Right. [Speaker] So if I walk up to your child and I say good morning to your child, your child looks at me like the devil, Guess what I'm gonna do?
Child.
'Cause it is what it is. 'Cause at the end of the day, I'm not gonna, I feel like this.
I feel like this. I feel like this. I feel like this.
If your child ignores me as an adult, why should I speak with your child if he's already ignored?
If your child disrespect me, why shouldn't I say I'm gonna hit her in her mouth but I don't do it.
But she's, but when she, but I tell her you do not disrespect me. When she speaks, When she speaks, you don't listen. There's a difference.
No, people.
You can't tell a child like that. Write them down on a piece of paper. Write them down on a piece of paper.
First of all, Mom, while we're speaking about this, 'cause I'm getting clarity, my producers are telling me right now that your daughter sent in a text, Kenny, that she wanted me to see. What does this text say?
Oh wow, let's see. Please, please, please.
Why can't y'all just be normal couple without any problems? Y'all need to get a therapist or take some time and go somewhere with each other without us kids. Y'all already get stressed out with each other and we're not helping when we're being loud and doing the most. Dad, can you just please apologize to them? Right.
Right.
Now, me and my daughter—
So there's something interesting about this. Yes. There's something interesting. Your daughter in this message, 'cause this is your daughter.
Yes.
Her last statement was, Dad, can you just please apologize?
'Cause at the end of the day, My daughter already knows me. I'm not a confrontational person until you put me there. Until you put me there. At the end of the day, like I say, there's different— Can I correct that really quick?
Can I correct that? No one can put you there.
Right, right.
You are being triggered on behalf of—
Okay, Florence, hold on. We gonna bring it back on the situation so we could get an understanding of how Kiana is.
First of all, let's just—
Please stop, please stop, please stop, please. You asking me, you asking me.
The reason why I called—
Oh my gosh, see, this is why I'm done talking. I'm done talking to you, shorty. Leave it just like that. Leave it just like that. I'm done talking because at the end of the day, you don't know who I talked to. You wasn't in the truck with me. You can't say that. You can't say that. Can I ask y'all something?
Is this how y'all always talk to each other? Yes. Always. So are most of your arguments about your children?
It's about everything. I could go to my car. I could go to my car and sit there and watch your football game. I had to stop. I had to.
Listen, I answer her question. I'm gonna ask you the same question. With this being said, with this being the communication, why is this relationship, why do you wanna salvage this? And speak your truth.
I can speak the truth. I love this woman. Everything she asked me to do in my past, I left behind.
It seems like the real issue is not unlocking this phone. So I'm gonna ask you both a question. Do you believe you deserve peace?
Yes.
Do you believe you deserve peace? I always, You believe you deserve peace? Yes. Do you believe you're in a peaceful relationship?
No. No, I'm never home.
I'm gonna stop right there. I asked you a simple question. Do you deserve peace? And then I asked you if you're in a peaceful relationship. If the answers don't match, then I'm gonna ask you now, why are y'all staying in this? Because unlocking the phone is not going to fix anything in this relationship.
I agree.
At the end of the day, acting like children when you're trying to raise children together is the most toxic thing you can do.
Yes, I agree.
I agree with that.
And unfortunately what gets me is that you're both unhappy, which is trickling down to these children that are now being treated unfairly in some ways by each of you. Yes. And so now because you're unhappy, because you know you deserve peace and you don't have a peaceful house, it's just blowing up for everybody.
Right, exactly.
And now these kids are in the middle texting and saying, can y'all please just get away from us? Your daughter's text said, can y'all go away and leave us alone? That's what your daughter's text said.
I know.
And I was leaving that, when she sent, where I was that night is I was at my best friend's house because it was an argument that, it was gonna be an argument. So me—
You left.
And I stayed gone. I get it. And I told my daughter like, yo, listen. And I've been explaining to my daughter, I said, yo, just so I don't have to argue with her, I don't be home. So she was like, yo, I already know, Dad, you keep going to your best friend's house. If you feel like you're gonna be arguing, go with your best friend, go to your best friend. She said, if that's gonna keep everything calm in the house, stay there.
I get it. But again, going in that cycle I'm talking about, you keep end up triggering her when you walk away. Because now it triggers the fact that she had no information about who are you messing with, you cheating with. You told her, you just said outta your own mouth, I told her deliberately that I was cheating with my ex because I wanted to hurt her. I deliberately know how to hurt somebody. Those are your exact words.
Oh yeah, and I tell her that in her face.
So I want you to imagine now, if you know you're doing that and she's aware of that behavior and you're now leaving the house, what do you expect her to?
First of all, for me to, like I said, if you want me home, I don't mind being home. But I'm not gonna be home when I know there's not nothing worth being there for. And I'm just gonna be honest.
Let's hear that. Did you just hear that? No, let's not defend it because part of what happens in y'all relationship is you're both defending your hurt feelings. And the worst thing in communication is defending hurt feelings. You're hurt, so every time he says something, you go and defend it. Every time she says something, you start defending it. This is why the whole time you're like, hey, hey, hey, stop, be quiet, quiet, quiet, hold down. That's you defending your hurt feelings. That's what that was. And it's not a healthy way of communication. But what he just said is there is nothing worth coming home for. So I need you to sit in that and process it.
Thank you.
Because what you're about to do is defend something and I need you just to hear the words. We already seen the actions.
You know what? I know what really needs to be said. To be done and I'm going to do just that.
What is it?
I'm going to leave this relationship.
Thank you. I agree. And you know what? I can say, you know what, babe? That's the best agreement that we ever had.
And you're happy about it?
I'm okay with it. Okay.
I think you are two people who are not right for each other that have been trying to figure out how to make it work because you blended your families too quickly. And you shouldn't have. And I'm glad that at least you can walk off this stage a little bit better than you were when you came on.
Thank you. You hear me?
I wish y'all the best of luck. I got on this to do, and I wish them kids the best of luck.
