In this Karamo talk‑show episode, single mother Amari appears seeking DNA confirmation of her infant daughter’s father. She explains a tangled romantic history: a breakup with her ex‑partner, an affair with Marty, and a liaison with a second “mystery man.” Amari admits she had sex with both Marty and the mystery man on the same day and later with the mystery man again around the time she believes she conceived. She and both men were informed of the pregnancy, and her family believes the baby resembles both men. Host Karamo probes the timeline, the emotional stakes, and each participant’s perspective. Marty, who has six other children, describes a casual attitude toward the situation, acknowledges possible paternity, and expresses a desire to remain friends rather than co‑parent. Amari’s mother Sabrina interjects with moral advice, urging Amari to seek God and preferring Marty as the father. The episode culminates in a live DNA test reveal: the results show Marty is not the biological father. The host offers to help Amari secure further testing for the remaining two men, emphasizing support for her and her daughter.

My godmama told me to tell you hey.
Hey Marty, how you doing, sir? How you doing, sir? How you doing? Thank you for being here. All right. So Marty, what's your thoughts going on? What's your thoughts on this situation?
My thoughts on the situation, pretty much, you know, things happen. You know, I'm all for it if it is. If it ain't, you know, it is what it is. We still gonna be friends.
Do you know that Omari was intimate with other men while y'all were having an affair?
Toss up, yeah. Kind of, sort of.
Okay. Why did you cut Omari off?
Feelings, that was the thing for me. It was like we talked about it, so.
'Cause you got caught up.
Yeah.
'Cause you wanted a relationship.
Nah, I ain't the one that wanted the relationship. I ain't gonna say that.
So you got caught up with the feelings.
I did catch feelings, but he didn't know that.
I know, come on now.
Did you catch feelings? Did you catch feelings?
In between, but also at the same token, I know what we was doing.
You knew what it was? Yeah. So because of that, you was like, no. During this time, did you, And Omari used protection?
No, he didn't.
So he didn't. So from yours, clearly this could be your child.
Yeah, pretty much could be. You know, it's no problem with that. You know, I understand. But, you know, things happen.
What did Omari ask you in the middle of the act?
It was one time she was like, you know, why didn't you finish? And I was like, I don't know.
So you were asking for him to— Thank you for saying that. Thank you for saying that because I couldn't find a professional word to say what I want to say. Okay, so you were asking him to, mm-hmm.
Yeah, it was, but it was—
So you wanted a baby?
No, no, no, no, no, no. It was more along the lines for me, I like to make sure my guy is pleased. And so with him not doing it, I'm like, hey, what you got going on? So.
Uh-huh, I mean, it is, uh-huh. That whole night thing is like, you know.
But I know why he didn't.
Okay.
So we talked about it, we got it all out.
How did you feel when Amari said she was pregnant then?
I didn't feel a type of way, but I also was like, hey, you know, I never finished.
Yeah.
You know, we talked about it, we gotta understand on it, and you know, like I said, [MASKED], you know, it can happen.
Okay, got it, got it. And were you supportive with her during the pregnancy?
Somewhat, you know, she kept me updated on going to the doctor and what was going on.
But because her ex was in the picture, that's why you kind of stayed away?
Nah, I just, was like, you know, I don't know. So it's like, I don't wanna overstep and be too involved and then it's not. Got it.
So. Do you have any other children?
Yeah, I got 6 kids.
You got?
Why is that always the reaction when they hear that?
You talking about why that's the reaction? Why you think it's the reaction?
He's a great father though.
Right. I believe I'm a great father. Your temperament actually gives for a great father. But you know, that's a lot of children.
Yeah.
So you don't think you wanna start using condoms?
I'm old now.
You ain't that old. You only 33. There's still an opportunity for 7, 8, 9, and 10.
See, I got plans that I'll, you know.
So this child would be number 7 for you?
Pretty much.
Lucky 7.
Lucky 7.
Okay. Do you think the baby looks like you?
Yeah, I see the similarities, but also at the same token, you know, we still got potential. That picture, that's so funny.
Yeah.
'Cause the thing about that picture, I came, you know, kick it or whatever, and I didn't know about that picture till recently. So I was like—
Yeah, and you saw it and you like, wow.
I'm like, when was that? She was like, that was that day. I was like, oh, that's crazy.
Wow, okay then.
My family was being messy. We were at my cousin's house and I got that picture to my phone the next morning. I said, y'all so messy.
You got it. Y'all messy. I like your messy family, okay. Love y'all. How many times have you seen the baby?
A handful of times, about a good 5, 6 times.
Did you have an emotional connection with the child?
No, not me personally, but you know, if she around, I interact.
Have you helped with money or diapers?
No, outside of the baby shower, sending gifts over, no.
Okay, and how old is the baby now?
She'll be 1 tomorrow.
1 tomorrow, wow. Okay, and what are you hoping the DNA truth will reveal?
Me personally, I know who she is as a person. So it's like I want to keep it at a friendship level rather than being co-parents. Ain't nothing wrong with that.
Oh, we're getting a ping and my producer tell me it's from Omari's mom, Sabrina. Let me hear what your mother had to say. Oh Lord.
Oh, isn't that—
Omari, my advice to you is to First of all, never be caught in this situation again, to, uh, to seek God better, to get closer to God and make better decisions for your life, because you have two beautiful daughters. For Marty, I think he's a very stand-up guy. Uh, I think Zay looks just like him, and because he has stepped— he has stepped up to the plate, I would prefer him to be the father. Now, the other guy, I don't know his name, but I don't really like his personality. I don't like the way he has handled with this situation. I'd like to see her make better decisions for her daughters so that they can have a better life, even though sometimes the decisions are hard, but just to make better decisions so that their life will be impacted better. It has caused her a lot of heartache, and I hate to see my daughter hurting the way she has been over a situation.
Mama's words hit you?
Yeah.
Here you go. Why do your mother's words hit you?
Because I really have been through a lot.
Well, I think it's time. We clearly know the mother, Amari, all are hoping that you are this child's father. You've even said if you are the father, you're gonna step up and be there. Well, I think it's time to unlock the DNA truth. Are you ready?
Hell yes.
Come with me. So Amari, in this envelope is the truth. This is your truth to open, not mine, so good luck. Good luck.
Appreciate it.
Uh-oh, we better look at this together.
Oh, your truth to open.
I don't want to.
No.
Nope, we said it.
What's it say?
No, he is not.
He's not. We said it.
Right.
We said it.
Okay.
We said it.
So.
We already.
So, so you know. But at least you have clarity now.
Right.
So you don't have lucky 7. Okay. How are you feeling in this moment?
Honestly, I mean, I'm really just here to even like just potentially give my daughter a father. 'cause I really don't feel like the other guy's gonna do right. I really don't. And then he's still in a relationship pretending to be happy, so.
So the ex is not, you don't think the ex is the baby child's father?
I don't believe so, but I don't know.
Is there a way that we'd be able to test those two men for you?
I don't know. Only that's a question that they can answer.
Because I think that that's where we need to start. They need to both agree so that you can get your clarity. Right.
And now I'm finna go back and do some more digging.
So what we gonna do is we're gonna have my producers, I'm gonna have them, if you want our support, to call them for you. Okay. Because what we need is for you to have these answers more than anything. You've been through stuff and you deserve, your daughter deserves support.
And that's the only reason why I'm here.
And that's all what it's about. I heard your mother talking and so I think that's where we gotta start. We will give you the support to contact these men so that you can get the answers because you deserve it. Your daughter deserves it, okay?
Yes, she does.
Yeah, so thank you for being here and sharing your story with us. Yeah.
Thank you, Marty.
Hey, appreciate it. Appreciate you being here. All right, friends, make sure to come back next time so we can keep talking and growing. I love you all.
