[Evelyn] Previously on Basketball Wives...
[Brooke] My family is throwing an '80s-'90s party.
Where's the man of the hour, though?
[Jennifer] Is that him? Looks like Bobby Brown.
[Brooke] We did set a wedding date.
Married?
She just went through a divorce.
[Jac'eil] My wedding is two weeks away.
And I don't have any help, so yeah, it's hard.
I'm ready for you to come home.
We got so much to do. We got so little time.
Christian has a situation with the state.
He still has to pay restitution. It's a quarter million dollars.
Oh. Are you gonna help him?
[Jennifer] I have this.
Movie, hopefully I'm getting it sold, it's a big paycheck.
[Evelyn] We are all coming together for this Shaunierosa.
I don't wanna argue with you about your daughter.
-I am so sorry that you had-- -[bleep] your sorry, Jackie.
[bleep] you, ho. [bleep] you, ho.
I'll beat your ass while I finish this [bleep] taco, bitch.
[Jackie] [bleep] you, ho.
She ain't worth your taco, Brooke.
On that note, is she thanked for her services?
I feel like she thanked herself for her services.
Yes.

-Don't you look pretty. -How are you?
-You, too. -Listen, I ordered for us
because I knew we needed two drinks immediately.
Listen, listen...
[Jennifer] I'm looking forward to sitting down with Evelyn
because every time I see her, all the girls are around
or it's some drama with Jackie. So ooh, I need to woosah,
I need some girl time.
And I just need to be stress free.
What's going on with the wedding plannings?
Where are we at with this? Girl, it's coming.
-It's coming fast. -[Jennifer] I know.
I'm like, "Oh, my God."
You know, I honestly feel bad for Christian.
He's just been dealing with so much.
He's got the restitution going on.
His stress level is, like, through the roof.
This restitution, it just makes me wonder.
Does that make him guilty?
Regardless, that is a lot of money to pay
before your wedding.
I'm just, like, always trying to be supportive.
Like, I'm supposed to do this screening.
Everything is just, like, all over the place.
I'm just like, "Lord, get me to tomorrow."
Listen, we stressed the [bleep] out.
I'm ready to turn up at Brooke's party.
[Jennifer] Yes.
With Brooke's divorce behind her she's ready to, like, celebrate
her new beginnings. And I'm happy for her.
I have officially filed my divorce papers.
Whoo!
I think you should have a party. It doesn't have to be divorce,
but I feel like it should be, like, an independence party
validating your freedom.
Would you guys like to throw that for me?
[Jennifer] Yeah.
[Evelyn] Before we can pick out a date for Brooke's
independence party, she's already gotten boo'd up.
But I feel like we need some much-needed fun time.
Well, let's get to the nitty-gritty.
I haven't seen you since--
I don't even know what you call that.
The Shaunie roast?
[laughs]
That was insane.
I wanna know, like, why were my nudes a topic of conversation?
I didn't even know you had any nudes, and when I saw them--
-Wait, wait. -You sent them.
No, I didn't. She sent them to me.
If she told you,
"I'm sorry for passing around your titty pictures"...
I'm okay with her apologizing, but I also wanna know,
-why did you do it? -[Evelyn] Why.
I told you she liked your body.
Then she got up and did that twirl.
I said, "Ooh."
When she started unbuttoning them clothes,
I said, "Oh [bleep], I ain't ready."
You see this, bitch? I ain't fat, but you are.
Your arms is kinda chunky. They look like turkey legs.
It's those, like, funny moments that, like, even though we were
draggin' each other, that's the kooky Jackie that I like.
As much Jackie gets on my mother[bleep] nerves,
there's something about that funny banter that I miss.
I think all of us are not in a place of just
wanting to be angry.
It's like people have enough on their plate.
Life is short.
Like, I know we tore each other's asses up that day,
but it's like when you get home and you lay your head
on the pillow, you're like,
"Why does it even have to be like this?"
Right.

Mm.
I don't like the wedding idea this year.
I want Brooke to be happy and everything, but, you know,
I think Brooke has pushed me in a place of making me feel,
like, guarded with the situation.
[Evelyn] Well, I feel like--
Married, married, moving in, married, da-da-da-da-da.
And I'm like, "Brooke, oh [bleep]."
Lord, here we go again.
Brandi in somebody's business but her own.
I feel like you should read the room and you should be quiet.
Look, she's an empty nester. It doesn't--
I wouldn't want her to get divorced and married

So I have my reservations.

Y'all know secretly y'all are thinking every time this girl

But y'all aren't willing to say nothing.
You know why no one's not saying anything to Brooke?
Because they scared of her. I'm not.

-I'm happy. -Thank you so much.
I wanted to come talk to you because I want you

And the main reason I want you to do it is because
my family can't be here.
And I just feel like you're my family.
-And I am. -You are.
You are so much a part of mine.
You teach me how to be a better mom.

Don't, don't, don't.
Brooke has been a part of my journey in so many ways.
With me being a mother, she's there.
With me being a fiancée and my woman is overseas,
she love us.
So I mean, who else would I choose besides her?
I will be honored. I love you and Tasha so much.
I love our friendship.
Don't make me [bleep] cry right now.
[Jac'eil] I'm serious.
I was just in a whole pool and I didn't mess up my makeup.
I really can't believe that Jac'eil is entrusting me
to officiate her wedding.
Oh, my God.
With all of the BS that goes on, Jac'eil is a constant reminder
to me of what sisterhood and friendship
is really all about.
[Brooke] Listen guys, I have an announcement.
[Evelyn] Another announcement?
Jac'eil just asked me
to officiate her wedding.
-[Evelyn] Are you gonna do it? -Yes!
-[Evelyn] That's amazing. -I'm so excited about this!
That's exciting.
[Shanti] Brooke, basically your mom is really wasted.
Oh, Lord.

I cannot. Mama! No way.

So this is a sunken fire pit. It's a nice vibe.
At night it's all city lights. It's insane.
Let me show you. So this is the primary suite.
[Brooke] It's a little small.
This is small? You're so, uh...
Thank you so much, but I don't know.
I know we're supposed to see four more homes.
But I'm really not feeling it.
I just would rather wait until he can be 100%
hands-on available.
This is one of the main issues that we've been having.
He's very consistent like on the romantic side of things.
But then we're making these big plans and talking about marriage
and buying a home together, which I feel like
he should be here.
This isn't the first time that Kevin has disappointed me.
I don't wanna just get stuck in one place,
especially with someone who is not as available
as I would like him to be.
Hello, Kevin.
You know, I wanted to surprise you in person,
but you've been really, really busy.
So I got my initials covered up on my finger.
Hi.
I called in for seven turkey tacos.

One thing that I'm never gonna do is beg for attention

Oh.
[Brooke] I actually broke up with Kevin over the phone.
We don't see each other.
I want to be able to go home to my significant other
and we just share our days together,
and having a long-distance relationship
just does not prioritize that.
I don't need to hear no I told you so's

So that honeymoon is over?
-I'm not-- -You're out of the clouds?
Now you're coming to reality?
I am not surprised that her and Kevin broke up. Duh.

What happened was he has a lot of things going on there

I already said what I had to say.
-What you got to say? -And look, here we are.
It is everything that I said.
I think this is a good thing to slow it down.
You also said I should have stayed
with my cheating-ass husband.
He did not cheat on you anymore after the first time you--
-How do you know? -You told me!
How do I know?
We can't do no hypotheticals!
Once a cheater, always a cheater.
No, it's not true. That's not true.
So you think Jason's cheating on me?

I would hope not.
Am I wrong for taking Jason back?
You live a safe life, I don't.
You and Jason stuck it through and you stayed there
because that's your safe space.
So what are you saying?
You think that I'm not happy in my marriage?
I don't think that you're 100% happy. No.
-Really? -[Brooke] Yes.
Why? I love my husband and I gave him a chance.
Right, so how come I can't love Kevin and give him a chance
-when it's time for-- -You can love that man.
I'm just saying you can't--
Like, what's the point of doing 12/12/24?
What's the point of not?
Bitch, I ain't gettin' no younger.
I got more years behind me than I do in front of me.
So what the [bleep] I'm waitin' on?
It just seems like Brandi is projecting a lot of her
relationship issues on to me and my new dating life.
I feel like she isn't the happiest in her marriage
'cause it really sounds like the call
is coming from inside the house.
-He is random. -[Brooke] He is not.
That came into the fold and stole your heart!
Am I wrong for saying to you, Brooke, slow down?
I just really feel like you live by certain standards and rules
for relationships, and you're wrong in telling me
how I need to move forward in my relationships.
I'm just not living by those rules.

get a better and clearer understanding privately.
So when she asked to get together, of course I accepted.
-You look amazing. -Why, thank you.
So do you.
It is extremely important for me to clear the air
before she left L.A., so I'm definitely gonna let her know,
I'm your friend and you're mine.
How have you been, mama?
Since the last time I saw you, and I know it was hectic.
The last time I saw you, it was just--
-[Jackie] Chaos. -So much going on at that table.
And after, like, trying to mediate, but it got so crazy
that I just tapped out.
There's so much to say,
I don't even know where to begin.
When we was with the group and I came in, I'll be honest,
I did come in with an open heart till the point where Brooke
called me that first bitch.
I did fall into it, and it was immature on my part as well.
Looking back on the Shaunierosa, I tried to come in love.
I tried to speak to them women, but one thing they know,
when you're sitting down with Jackie Christie
and you start calling names and getting disrespectful,
the same energy you give, you gonna receive.
I was angry.
I learn from my [bleep] mistakes.
On top of it was wrong, I hope you can forgive me.
When I saw you the first time with Brandi, I was trying to
replay, what did I do? What did I say?
She didn't ever say she felt like this.
I didn't feel this.
I love you. You are my sister.
I wish you had called me 'cause--
I know, I should have. I [bleep] up.
I understand you venting to somebody you trusted
because you felt a way about what you thought was going on,
along with having negativity spewed at you.
-That's right. -I can understand that.
Shaunie and I have had a very long friendship
and been through a lot of things together.
And we always come out better afterwards.
My next step's to bringing the ladies back together will be
to talk to these ladies with open arms and an open heart
to try to help get things back on track.
Next time, Jackie...
No, it ain't gonna be no next time.
...you hear some mess from somewhere, I want you
to pick up the phone, FaceTime me, okay?
Difficult times are supposed to come with a lesson,
-so that's the lesson. -[Jackie] That's it.

-Are we supposed to wait? -I'm eating.
Okay.
I need to eat before I get in front of all these people.
[laughs]
I feel like we're supposed to wait.
One thing about Jac'eil, she is not formal.
Exactly. And Jen over here is trying to be all proper.
That is definitely not going down at my wedding and, um...
Security! [buzzer]

[Jac'eil] The journey of my relationship with Natasha
has been a gift from God because this has been the
easiest, happiest, the most calm relationship I've ever been in.
Hey, babe.
This is where we're living at, L.A.
Can I have a kiss?
[Jac'eil] Natasha loves me for me.
We knew that we were gonna be married.
We knew that we was gonna be each other's wife.
♪ I'm so glad you're mine ♪
Thank you.
[laughter]
♪ This is what it feels like ♪
♪ To have Heaven on Earth ♪
Beloved friends, as we gather in the presence of God today,
we bear witness to the sacred union of Jac'eil Ducksworth
and Natasha Howard.
First and foremost, I want to say thank you
for your sacrifice.
For everything that you've been doing for our family.
I'm gonna be the person that you need me to be as your wife.
Your provider, your lover,
your protection,
and also the greatest role model for Prince and D'asia.
I love you and I can't wait to start this new chapter
-with you and with our family. -I love you, too.
Don't make me cry before my turn.
[laughing]
Oh.
Natasha, I just want you to know that I really love you.
Like, you've been here for me mentally, physically
and emotionally. You do so much for me.
I never in my life seen myself getting married.
But you changed that for me.
-And I love you. -I love you more.
[Brooke] Under the loving gaze of God,
you may seal your vows with rings.
I now pronounce you partners for life.
You may kiss your bride.
[people cheering]
Now introducing Mrs. and Mrs. Natasha Howard.
[cheering]
[music]
I'm married. I am finally Mrs. Howard.
Okay, Tash.
I am happy.
Not my heart is happy, but my soul is happy.
[cheering]
This is to Jac'eil.
Oh, my God. Blanco is really beneath me.
On behalf of Jac'eil and Natasha
I would like to thank everyone for coming and they would like
for you guys to go ahead and eat if you wanna eat.
I'll eat again.
Y'all ate already.
Y'all didn't wait for the bride to come to eat?
No, we was hungry.
Are you guys going on a honeymoon?
What are we doing?
Oh.
She gotta go to work.
I have an idea, a girls' trip.
We were talking about it.
-We all have a very full plate. -I'm down.
We have been dealing with a lot.
And we all need to exhale and release.
Evelyn and I came up with the idea of a girl's trip
the other day, and I wanted to bring it up today
after the ceremony.
We need to go on vacation.
You're getting married. Maybe do a little something fun.
-Yeah. Bachelorette shindig? -[Evelyn] Yes.
I cannot wait to relax in the sun with my girls
and have it double as a bachelorette for moi.
Yeah, it'll be good.
I'm down for anywhere in Mexico.
Puerto Vallarta.
That'll be great.
I've never been to Puerto Vallarta.
I haven't either.
Oh, my God. PVR, it is!
[cheering]
Excuse me.
[Jennifer] Are you and Brooke good?
I mean...
What was that little thing about the wedding?
I was like, "Who's the other one?"
She had a conversation with me.
And she kind of pushed the whole moving in and wedding
-and all that stuff-- -Wait, what?
-Yeah, she put a pause to it. -Like, what does this mean?
[Brandi] The fairy tale is done, Jen.
I mean, it's like everything we said.
[Jennifer] You little bitch.
You wanted to say, "I told you so."
No, but that was the first thing she said.
She was like, "And I don't wanna hear I told you so, but."
-You know, so... -But you was right, bitch.
[laughing]
But Brooke, she falls fast. I mean, it was lightning speed.
And they tried to compare the [bleep] to Christian and I.
And I'm like, "Uh-uh."
You're like, "No, it's six months."
No, no, no, no, no.
I'll be back.
You guys want something to drinky drink?
[Jennifer] Yes, please. Some wine.
[Evelyn] You want something?
You gonna bring us a shot and a heater?
[Jennifer] Oh, my God, a heater?
[Evelyn] Enough is enough.
It is not Brandi's place to talk about Brooke's
relationship with Kevin. When I think about this,
I feel like there's a part of Brandi that may not want
Brooke's relationship to work
because her [bleep] ain't working.
Can I have-- What did she want?
She wants wine, like a double glass, and a shot of tequila.
-Oh, who's having that? Jen? -[bleep] blabbermouth.
Who's blabbermouth?
Who do you think?
-Brandi? -Yes.
[Brooke] What is she blabbering her mouth about?
Girl, she's telling Jen basically everything that's,
like, going on with you and Kevin.
-Wow. -Mm-hmm.
[music]
[Brooke] What is she blabbering her mouth about?
Girl, she's telling Jen basically everything that's,
like, going on with you and Kevin.
Wow.
[Evelyn] She was like, "The fairy tale is over."
She has a lot to say.
Why is she telling Jen any of my business?
When I wanna tell people what I have going on in my life,
-then I will do it myself. -I know.
She's got enough of her own business to [bleep] talk about.
I'm gonna hold this because it's Jac'eil's day,
but I'm just gonna get my things and leave 'cause I don't know
if I'm gonna be able to sit at that table with her.
Okay, I think you should.
Thank you.
-Hi. -Hi, baby.
I just wanted to come say thank you again for including me.
No, I really appreciate you. I love you.
I love you, too. Thank you.
Congratulations again.
Tasha, I'm gonna give you your seat back next to your wife.
[laughs]
Oh, God.
I'm gonna go ahead and leave. This was nice.
[Jennifer] Why are you leaving?
-See you later. -Bye.
Why are you leaving, boo?
-Are you okay? -Yeah, I'm fine.
-We'll talk later. -No hug?
-Oh, no. -Okay.
[Jennifer] What happened?
Y'all was over here talking, that's it.
I didn't say nothing.
I didn't even know that Brooke's relationship status
was top secret.
We all have been talking about it.
Am I missing something here?
Brooke not saying bye to me at this wedding is petty.
Bye, guys. Bye.
Have a good night. Bye.
What the hell just happened?
-I'm confused. -[Brandi] Why has Brooke left?
What did Evelyn [bleep] do again?
Evelyn stays in everybody's [bleep] business.
Don't you have some pants to sell?
I don't know, child. I don't know.
She good at knowing how to make Brooke mad at me and [bleep].
[Evelyn] Next time on Basketball Wives.
This launch event is make or break.
There's a lot riding on today.
-Are you throwing a dig? -Does it sound like one?
Hey, hey, this is Evelyn's event, let's not do that.
-Can I have a hug? -Yeah.
-I'm like, "We're giving hugs?" -Awkward as [bleep], huh?
[Jennifer] Viva Mexico!
Love and light, ladies.
[Evelyn] Jackie is coming to Mexico.
Evelyn.
Hey.
[Jackie] You know I had to come.
Who are you right now?
[Jennifer] Since the guest list is still open,
I have somebody that I would like to invite
on the trip as well.
Who the [bleep] is this?
Hello.
Ooh!
We got some unfinished business. And let's start it tonight.
[music]
[whoosh]
