(Tami) - I'm Tami Roman.
I have been cheated on before.
You (bleep) my man when I was married to him.
I even wrote a book about it.
Now I'm on a mission to help suspicious lovers
catch their cheating partners in the act.
- Bitch been lying to me the whole (bleep) time.
- Oh, we kissing!
(Tami) - I'm teaming up with
relationship expert Kevin Carr.
- Everybody's in the dark and don't know what's going on.
That's master manipulation.
(Tami) - And private investigator
Brianne Joseph.
(Brianne) - If someone is being
unfaithful, I'll get you the receipts.
Got it, got it.
- Are you prepared to see the footage?
Once our investigation is complete,
the suspicious lover can team up
with the partner's other lover.
- We have a jackass in common.
(Tami) - Or take down both of them
in an undercover ambush.
- What the (bleep) you got going on right here?
- What is you doing? - Whoa!
- You brought this... into my place of business!
How dare you?! What is this?
(Tami) - In the end, the suspicious
lover might decide to move forward...
(woman sighing)
...or move on from their cheating partner for good.
- I'm over with it.
(Tami) - One confrontation
could change everything.
- Whoo! - I'm done!
- We gonna get these answers today.
- I'm giving you the answers.
- Cheaters beware.
Everybody put their (bleep) on pause!

(Tami) Today I'm meeting with Jessica.

(Tami) - So she's come to see me.
- ♪ Like a woman with a broken heart ♪♪
- Hi. - Hi.
- How are you, beautiful? - I'm good.
- I'm Tami Roman.
Nice meeting you, Jessica.
So, thank you for coming in.
- You're welcome. Thank you for having me.
- Absolutely.
Now, I know you reached out to me because you feel
that your partner, Walter, is being unfaithful.
I need to know about your relationship.
Tell me about the beginning.
When did you two get together?
- So I moved, like, a year ago
to Atlanta for a fresh, new start.
He's the first person that I met when I first got here.
I was on a dating app, and we matched.
So that's how we started talking.
- ♪ Come-a, come a little closer... ♪♪
♪♪
(Jessica) - Walter is tall, dark,
handsome, and bearded.
- Oh. - And we gonna start dating--
- Beard gang. - Yeah, he is beard gang.
- He's very charming. - Hmm.
- Very smooth.
- So he's got the gift of gab. - He's got the gift of gab.
- Okay, okay. - Okay?
- My first date, he took me to a hookah spot.
We really didn't wanna go home.
We just wanted to keep talking.
I think we matched because we both have
this insatiable, like, appetite for success.
- Okay. - When we first did the hookah,
there was something called Candy Hookah Tips,
and I said, "I bet you I could make these myself,
and I can also sell them."
And I asked him, "Would you like to help me make sales?
Because you know people in Atlanta."
So I started a company called TipFusion.
So that is hookah and Candy Hookah Tips.
- Oh, nice. - And it took off.
- With TipFusion, I had the thought.
I did all of the legal logistics behind it, the website.
But he's the one that had the connections here in Atlanta.
Me and him are like a power team.
I'm making so much money.
- Okay, and so you guys work together.
- Yes. - How did it turn into
a physical, romantic relationship?
- Okay, so he decides that he wants to take me home
for Thanksgiving to meet his family.
- Nice step.
- We're jumping in. - Okay.
- We jump straight in. - Mm-hmm.
- Oh, my God, you're taking me home.
That means you're serious.
- Most women would think that.
- You know, ham, turkey, I'm with the family.
He's somebody that I could be seen in public with, hold hands.
When he's with you, you feel safe, you feel heard.
It's always a good time.
He's a great listening ear.
- So, once you guys got together,
I'm assuming that the relationship
was like a whirlwind, right?
- Yes. From that day,
I feel like we've been inseparable.
- So you guys live together?
- So we don't live together. - Okay.
Love? Do you feel like you love him?
- Love, I do love him.
- You feel like he loves you? - Yes.
- Do you feel like he's that one man?
- I do feel like he's that one man.
- Okay, so what's the problem then?
- The issue comes when he's not with you
or when he's not in your presence,
you just don't know what he's doing.
- Okay.
- I can't shake this feeling that he's cheating on me.
- So is there anybody in particular that you believe
could potentially be the other woman?
- I have heard of one of his
previous girlfriends named Brittany.
So they had a longstanding relationship before
I came into the picture. - Mmm... Okay.
- They had a really, really long relationship.
And they had a loss of a child.
(Tami whispering) - Oh, wow.
- I know the struggles and the things that he has went through,
and I try to be understanding of that.
I told him if you two are together or talking,
I can exit stage left. - And what did he say?
- He's like, "Well, you know, I'm going through
some things right now, but I really want you."
And I said, "Well, let's move forward."
- Is he still involved with Brittany?
- I don't know. I need to know.
'Cause what he tells me is that he wants to be a family man.
He wants to settle down.
- So what was the turning point for you
that you said, "Let me go find some help to see
what's really going on"?
Why now?
- We all want love. That's what we all want.
We want companionship, we want somebody
to tell our dreams to.
I want kids, and I feel like he could be a great father.
I feel like he didn't get that opportunity
the first time around.
But I'm just not sure if I can trust him.
And based off of what I find out...
I'm either staying and this is what we're doing seriously,
or I'm leaving.
♪♪
- I wanna tell you that I'm gonna do this for you.
- Okay.
- Because this is what you want, so we gonna find out.
- Okay. - All right?
- We gonna see. - I'm gonna do that for you.
- You got me crying. - I'm gonna do that for you.
So I'll get my private investigators on everything.
If they find something, I'll call you back.
Then we'll go through everything they find.
- Thank you. - All right?
- Thank you. - All right.
- Act normal, act normal around Walter.
- I will.
- We don't wanna give him no tips.

♪ Countin' up hundreds by the thousand ♪

(Tami) - So I reached out to my private
investigator Brianne Joseph
and placed her team on the case.
(Brianne) - First day,
new assignment from Tami.
She just sent me a picture of the target, Walter.
(Tami) - She'll follow Walter
for the next few days to learn
if he's been a reliable partner
or if he's been unfaithful.
- From what I understand, our client is actually
business partners with Walter.
So, just gonna follow him
around a little bit, conduct a little surveillance today
and see who he's hanging with.
Our client is apparently really suspicious of his behavior.
And hopefully, I can get some answers for her.
♪♪
Okay, let's see, so this is some
kind of apartment complex.
Get a spot real quick so I can...
see what he's up to.
Okay, he's getting out.
Let's see if somebody meets him here.
Wait a minute, he's got a key fob?
And I know he doesn't live here.
This is not the address that was in his file.
I wonder who lives here?
I'm gonna sit and wait him out.
♪♪
I followed Walter last night.
Waited a while, he never came out of the apartment.
So I basically just broke for the night on that one
after being there for a very long time.
And I'm picking him up again today
and traveling behind him now
to see if he leads me somewhere else.
Oh, he's turning in. Let me park.
Oh, there he is.
All right, Walter, what are you up to?
Oh, who is this woman?
Okay.
Is he dropping something off?
Ironing board, pots and pans, and a lamp.
And he's helping her move in?
Hmm, this is really interesting now.
♪♪
It looks like Walter could be seeing another woman.
♪♪
He's very active, he's very all over the place.
Pretty sure that if I stay on this guy long enough,
he'll give me much more than what I already have.
The plot thickens.
My team and I have tracked him to a restaurant.
Okay, I'm heading inside right now.
♪♪
I'll be using my cell phone to document everything I see.
And I'm placing a small microphone under a nearby plate.
This is a different woman than the one
he was with the other day.
Oh, yeah, these two seem like more than just friends.

(Tami) - I've received the results
of our investigation from Brianne.
Now it's time to share with Jessica what we've learned.
This is Kevin Carr,
and I invited him to be a part
of this moment. - Okay.
- So I'd like to show you what we found.
- This is not fair! I didn't ask for this!

Jessica, I was hoping

That was not the case.

They had lunch.

Smooching, it's a smooch festival.
Then they go out... taking selfies.
(indistinct chatter)
(Jessica) - I'm feeling like...
"Why me?"
- Have you looked at you?
You're beautiful, you're intelligent.
- Well, why is that not enough?
- Because it's something inside of him
that has nothing to do with you.
- Okay.
- Just when we thought it was over...
I got a text from my private investigator Brianne.
She's sending me footage. - Okay.
- So that I can pull it up. - I wanna see it.

- He's got, uh, balloons and teddy bears and roses.
Do you know who that is?
I don't know who that is, though.
- Brittany.
The one that he had a child with that they lost.
- I remember you telling me, okay.
So it looks like he's still trying
to be a part of Brittany's life.
- This breaks me down to my core right now...
and I'm upset!
There's no reason why he should be out there with her.
He told me he was done with her!
He told me he was finished!
So why is he up in there kissing her and hugging her?!

Come on and have a seat, baby.
- So how you feeling?
- I'm taking it real hard because
at what point did I recognize
there are red flags, and I still kept going?
They look pinkish or they look peach.
- When you see a red flag, it's pink to you
'cause you want-- your desire is I don't wanna
be alone, and I wanna have a relationship.
He was kinda nice. - Mm-hmm.
- So you'd rather stay in the fantasy.
- Mm-hmm.
- We all have baggage, right?
Every person that you meet in life,
you know where you meet them at?
The baggage claim, 'cause we all got it, right?
In order to never approach any situation from
a fantasy standpoint, you gotta unpack your bags.
- Have you ever heard of attachment theory,
where we all have a way in which we attach to people, right?
Some of us are secure, some of us are anxious.
And based on what we can
gather about Walter, he has an avoidant attachment style.
People with that attachment style tend to be noncommittal.
Even though they might make it seem like at times
it's something that they want. - Yeah.
- You understand? But he never goes what?
All the way.
- All of this is a lie. - Yeah.
- And I think actually you need to be peeling back the layers
with all these other women you've seen today.
- I agree. - Okay.
- You, Brittany, and these other two ladies,
you should have a conversation.
- Okay.
- After we all have our conversation, then maybe
we should speak with Walter...
and I will be present.

(Tami) -I asked my private investigator
Brianne to locate the three women
Walter has been spending time with,
and she found them all.
Rose, Tyisha,
and Brittany.
It took a little persuasion
but each lady agreed to meet Jessica
and me at my office.
Now all of us are about to learn how Walter
came into their lives and the extent
of his involvement with each of them.
Hey, ladies.
- Hey. - Hi.
- I wanna thank y'all for coming in
so that we can really have this conversation.
Jessica came to us because she wanted to find out
what was happening in her relationship with Walter.
And in doing that we found out about all of you ladies.
♪♪
I did invite my partner. You've met Kevin before.
Kevin Carr is a relationship expert, and I think that
he'll be valuable in this conversation.
- Hello, hello. - Hey, Kev, I was just...
- How's everybody doing today?
- ...letting the ladies know you'd be joining us.
So to start us off, you guys are all familiar with Jessica.
She's the person who spearheaded this,
but do you know her story and what that really is?
- No.
- Jessica, right now today,
you're in a relationship with Walter.
- Yes. That is what he has told me.
- He's been telling me she's his business partner.
- I had no clue that you guys were together.
- Oh, he even said this.
- This man needs to be held accountable.
- Absolutely. Let's make him face the music.
- (Tami) Welcome back to "Caught in the Act."
The show where we catch cheaters in the act.
Jessica, right now today,
you're in a relationship with Walter.
- Yes. - Okay.
Along with suspicious lover Jessica,
we've rounded up three other women
that cheater Walter has been seeing.
Now we're gonna hear their stories.
- I'm not sure the story he has told anybody,
but I met Walter last year.
I started my company TipFusion Tips with Walter.
But I'm the boss. - Mm-hmm.
How did it turn into a relationship?
- So it's Thanksgiving, I'm at Thanksgiving dinner
with Walter, Mom and Dad house.
It was great. Stuffing was good.
I go home for Christmas.
Mom and Dad, grandparents, sister,
matching pajamas, and I thought
this is what we're doing, you know?
Why would I ever be there for Christmas and Thanksgiving,
you know, with the family just as a business partner?
Doesn't make sense. And how you gon' be
a business partner and this ain't your business?
'Cause my name on the paperwork.
- You all think Jessica is just the business partner.
That there's no romantic involvement at all.
- (Kevin) Right. - Oh, he even said this.
He said, "I probably even took her out on a date one time
"because I'm basically trying to take over her business
so that I can flip it and maybe make the money."
- Wow, I just needed some more answers.
And that's why we're here today. - Mm-hmm.
Brittany?
- I met him four years ago.
We was working at a car dealership.
We met and we went to drinks.
He was so charming, so nice and, you know,
everything we talked about, it was always, you know, us.
But we've been on and off ever since then.
He's been telling me he's not talking to anybody else,
and basically that I'm the only one that he wants to be with.
He wants us to have a family.
About a year ago, um... me and Walter had a baby.
The baby passed away.
- Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. - Um, thank you.
(Tami) - And so you go through this
moment with somebody.
That's a traumatic experience
and event to have to endure.
What's happening now?
Are you guys supposed to still be a couple?
- Yeah, we're still supposed to be working on that.
(Tami) - Oh.
Tyisha, what's your relationship with Walter?
- Um, sorry, I'm trying to keep myself together.
I live in Atlanta by myself.
I have friends here, but I don't have any family.
I'm from Philadelphia. So we met last year.
You know, we were messing around with each other, you know,
having sex, of course, um...
I actually got pregnant as well, yes.
- Oh.
- He talked me into getting an abortion.
I didn't want to. I've never been pregnant before.
I've never had a child. I always wanted one.
Yeah.
- I'm sorry he made you do that.
- How did he convince you to do that?
- Basically telling me, like, "You know, you wanna be a model.
Like, this will mess up your career."
- That wasn't about you. That was about him.
- So he used the desires of your heart against you
to take away your God-given birthright,
as if people can't bounce back,
as if people can't still continue their careers.
- He told me, "Don't have a baby now.
Like, I'll get you pregnant next year."
Those exact words.
- Which means that he was sexually active
with both of you ladies at the exact same time.
- Oh, my God.
- Sickening.
- And, Rose, what's your relationship with Walter?
- I had no clue about any of you guys.
Like, this is kind of, like, you know, hitting me left.
I met him about two-and-a-half years ago.
He wanted to have kids, he wanted for me
to move in with him, so I live in Alabama--
- Move in where? Where were you gonna move into?
- He don't-- he don't own that place.
(Rose) - Listen, so I've been
living in Alabama for a while,
went to Alabama State University.
Recently, I just moved. I moved Friday.
That's why I'm kind of confused, like,
how did all of this go on and I had no clue, like--
- Well, apparently, he's good at what he does.
- You weren't the only one. - (Tami) You living here.
Are you supposed to be in a relationship with him?
- As in the last two, three days and what we've been
speaking of, yeah. - Ooh.
- Mmm.
- I hope you guys can see that he likes control, right?
And so how that works in this situation, you meet him
soon as you get to Atlanta, right?
He get to help you adjust to a new city.
That gives himself a semblance of control.
You not from Atlanta.
You don't have really family here,
not too many friends, right? So he gets to what?
Control that situation. You live in Alabama.
You visit sometimes. He get to see you when he want.
He can kind of come and go. That gives him some control.
And if we really wanna just be honest,
you know how somebody really think about you
by how they treat you.
- Right. - Right.
- What does that say? - Right, everything.
- We've all got to sit with Walter, right,
and find out what was he thinking
when he involved all of you in this collective
that nobody asked to be a part of.
- Let's make him face the music.
- So you guys all agree to team up?
- (all) Yes. - (Tami) Okay.
Normally, my investigator continues to watch him
so that we can set up this sting operation to catch him.
But you're all here.
But you just moved here.
So you can have a little housewarming.
- Okay. - And we're invited.
- That's perfect. His guard gonna be down.
- (Rose) Yeah, his guard's gonna be down.
- We'll just do a little surprise.
As soon as we figure out how to put the moving parts
to this housewarming together,
we'll reach out to you, get that going,
and then we'll all join back up.

(Tami) - Today is the day.
- Okay, perfect.
(Tami) - Jessica is joining Kevin

women Walter's involved with
to confront him at a housewarming party
he won't soon forget.
You ready?
- I'm ready.
- How you feeling?
- Whoo!
It was a lot, it was a lot to digest.
But I want some answers,
and I think this is the perfect way.
(Kevin) - How has your perspective
of him changed from the moment you met him
to what we've uncovered?
- (Jessica) When I first met him he was charming.
Thought he had it together.
And once I really got in the thick of it,
I hate what I see now. I hate it.
- (Tami) We are pulling up to the house.
So what we've done, just so that you can
have clarity on every aspect of this--
you know that Rose is in on this.
- Yeah. - She's invited some friends
to her housewarming party so Walter won't be suspicious.
So we had Brianne, our private investigator,
come over to the house and set up cameras
so that all of us can see everything that's going on
in the house before you actually go in.
- Okay.
- All right, let's take a look and see what's going on.
- Hey, hey-- oh, wow - Good to see you.
- Good to see you too. - These are my friends.
- What's up? - Hey, how we doing?
It's Friday.
- I haven't really seen you other than the move.
- I've been all right, I've been all right.
Trying to be better today than I was yesterday.
(Rose) - I'm so glad that you're here.
(Walter) - Glad to be here.
- New beginnings. - New beginnings.
- Fresh start. - Thank you for coming
to my home and, you know, eventually, you'll move in.
- Yeah, I know.
- This is the perfect time for you to go in.
- Okay.
- She set it up that she's met a few people.
So go on in now.
- (Rose) Okay, I mean, we all have a past.
- We do, that's what I'm saying--
- And I've been open to you about my past, you know, so...

about to receive some unexpected gifts,
starting with suspicious lover Jessica.

Like, I mean, like, I--
- So what are we trying to see?
- I don't...
- You're saying that you're trying to see a lot.
I think you told Rose that I'm just your business partner.
- Yeah, it was a team effort. Like I said--
- What team? - He didn't answer her question.
- Okay, well, listen, I met someone else as well.
(Walter) - Who?
- Well, hello. - Hello, how are you?
- So I came here today because I wanted to say a few words
to you and let you know how I feel.
- Okay. - So you know
I live down here by myself.
Like, all my family lives in Philly.
And then I meet you and you already know,
like, I always wanted a child.
And all I wanted to do was to have my own little family.
You know what I mean?
And I get pregnant, and I kept telling you, like,
I wanted to keep this child but, no, it was always about you.
You didn't wanna keep this child because
you wanted to continue to do this.
I get the abortion.
You said I was gonna stay the weekend with you
and you was gonna take care of me.
Make sure that I was good.
We pull up to your parking garage.
When I'm getting out of the car, you coming to me
saying that I can't stay there.
You saying that I needed to go home because you're leaving.
I balled my eyes out, right? Yes.
- He is very dismissive of her.
- You didn't call me, you didn't make sure
I was good or anything.
That is disrespectful. - I'm sorry.

And right now in this moment
you're gonna take accountability to each one
of these women and telling them the truth.
Tyisha...
deserves from you
a genuine apology.
And it cannot be flippant.
- I've given her a genuine apology.
- When? - We've had a conversation.
- Walter, are you delusional? Stop lying!
- Okay.
- When did we even have a conversation
about it afterwards?
- Dead ass, dead ass. - We've never spoke
about that situation. No, you're lying!
You never apologized to me.
- Even if you apologized previously,
just as a man, you gotta be able to say, you know what?
I'm sorry, I apologize.
- Her pain does not have an expiration date.
(Tyisha crying)
(Tyisha) - I-- I just want you to look
at, like, you have a little sister.
Like, what if her child's father was like,
"I don't want this child,
"like, I want you to get an abortion,"
and talked her into getting an abortion,
like, not caring about how she feel?
Like, you gotta look at situations like that.
- Okay, that's true.
I'd like to apologize.
That was not who I am or how I was raised.
That was very uncool. I have a sister.
I wouldn't want someone to do that,
like, I mean, that's not cool.
So I'd definitely like to apologize.
- I accept your apology.
But all this, what you're doing now is not right,
it's not right at all.
- Now we're on Rose.
- Okay.
- What are your intentions with her?
- I feel like you disrespected me 'cause you
tried to play me like I was like some ho.
- Release your hold that you have on women,
and the control that you think that you have.
You're not built like that. Look at me!

- (Tami) Welcome back to "Caught in the Act."
At a very unusual housewarming party,
cheater Walter is being confronted by
the four women he's dating simultaneously.
How can he justify his two-timing ways?
Now we're on Rose.
(Walter) - Okay.
- I feel like you disrespected me 'cause you
tried to play me like I was like some ho.
- I don't know how I tried to play you at all.
Like, it's just like you've been here a week,
so it's just like, I mean...
- I feel like you tried to prey on me.
- In speaking to her, it was that
you guys were gonna be building a--
- Yeah, and, I mean, I... could see that.
- But what you could see and your intentions
are two different things.
When you say, "I could see that,"
that don't really answer the question.
Somebody that has feelings for you could
misconstrue that as, "Okay, he wants a relationship."
- I'm trying to see where I fit in your life,
because I never even asked to be in your life.
You asked to be in mine.
- All this stuff was before you even got here.
With you moving here, we do have a clean slate.
- But you've been on dates with them recently, though.
♪♪
- What has this experience basically
caused you to feel?
- This is what some men do.
They like to prey on other strong women
and now, you know, it just shows me who you are.
You're not the man that you said you was.
- We've been trying to just help
the ladies navigate through this
so that they can know how to proceed after this moment.
- Okay.
- We need to know where Brittany falls in this.
So, Brittany, you need to make
decisions for yourself. - Yeah.
- I think that you can provide him with some clarity
on what that looks like.
- Well, I'm tired of your lying
and I'm tired of the manipulation.
- I feel like this-- me and Brittany,
we four-and-a-half, five years in,
and have been through a lot together.
So it gets... messy.
I've told you this a couple times.
I said, "You know what, I'll cut everyone off, I--"
- But you didn't.
When you said you did cut somebody off,
you didn't even cut them off.
You lied the whole time.
I was not talking to nobody, and I told you,
and we had a conversation that we was exclusive.
Then I find out you've been in relationships with--
- How long ago was that?
- Like, a couple months ago, like--
- Okay, and a couple months ago,
I wasn't talking to none of them.
So it's just like-- I mean, like--
- You wasn't talking to who?
What are you-- I was in pajamas in December.
(Rose) - Ooh, ooh, ooh...
- After all of this, I'm-- I'm sure that it's time that
we should just part our ways.
(Tami) - And Jessica...
the reason we're all here.
You guys have been together for almost a year
and she had a business idea.
Within that business relationship,
you guys became a couple.
But to all of these women,
Jessica's just your business partner.
What is the truth?
♪♪
- Jessica...
the reason we're all here.
What is the truth?
- Did you ever say to Jessica, "You're my lady,
I'm your man, we're together"?
- No, like, I was saying-- like, I always would
beat around the bush. Like, I would be like--
- Hmm...
- So, Walter, is Jessica the person that
you want to continue seeing,
or is today the last day?
♪♪
- Today's the last day. - What about the business?
- Done, I quit, but at the end of the day that's her thing.
She can do as she pleases with that.
She won't hear nothing from me.
(Tami) - So it's definitive?
Jessica's out of your life, you're out of her life.
She should go on and find happiness with someone else.
- I'm not here sitting here on this couch
because we was just business partners.
We gonna walk away regardless.
But release your hold that you have on women,
and the control that you think that you have.
We are beautiful, college-educated, lovely women.
We are hurting. Look at me!
Be a good, upstanding man and a good Black man
and of good character.
- So today what I was hired to do
was help Jessica find answers to her questions
as to whether there was infidelity
in your relationship.
- We did. - We did?
- We did. - Okay.
- You really don't have to be in this situation
if you learn how to just articulate exactly
this is who I am, this is where I am,
and this is what I want.
- Agreed? - Agree.
- Um, you're all beautiful, you're all queens,
you are all success stories as far as I'm concerned.
You've gotta know who you are
so that you can be the best version of yourself...
...for the right man, for the next man.
- Okay. - For the good man.
Hey, can I get-- no.
All right, y'all, I'm out of here.
- Walter... you can go.
♪♪
- Everything, to me, was on the ladies.
- Mm-hmm. - They all wanted
to be in a relationship so badly
that they chose to overlook that the man
was saying he wasn't in a relationship with them.
With Jessica in particular.
She felt it was a relationship that was not.
- Right. Right. - That was nonexistent.
At least we did our job in illustrating
what really was going on. Hopefully, they--
They get past that. - Yeah.
- This was a good experience and a learning experience,
and it's all about where you go from here.
My communication needs to get better, and I need to do better.
- I wish him nothing but the best, um...
He can eat (bleep) if he wants to.
- I feel like he'll probably just brush it off
and go on to the next female.
We're good, I'm done on him.
- It was a huge relief just to have
beautiful, strong women around me to be there
to comfort me was really good.
- I gave him my heart, you know, my body,
just my emotions, helped him with my business,
and for him to sit up there and act like he didn't know
or we were just business partners is beyond me.
I know what we were doing.
So I got exactly what I needed today.
♪♪
(Tami) - It's been a minute since
I've actually spoken to Jessica,
so I'm checking in to see how things are going.
Jessica, how are you, beautiful?
(Jessica) - I'm great, how are you?
- I am doing well.
I'm calling to check on you.
- Since the last time we have seen each other,
so much has changed and gone on.
Walter got his walking papers that day
and that's how it will remain.
- How about the business, though?
Are you guys still partners with TipFusion?
- Absolutely not, I can do this on my own.
- Yes! - I don't need,
you know, anybody, and that's what I've been doing.
- But you are open to dating now?
- I'm open to dating.
I'm open to taking it slow.
I'm open to loving me.
- I love to hear that.
So many great blessings and things are gonna
happen for you, and the relationship of your dreams
that is worthy of you is just around the corner.
All right, love, good talking to you.
(Jessica) - All right, thank you.
- Cheaters, beware.
Next time you wanna be unfaithful, think again.
Because I just might catch you in the act.
- You reached out to me because you feel
that your partner, Shay, may be unfaithful.
- Yeah. She's a club promoter
and she just stopped, like, inviting me.
- Do you know this woman?
- (woman) Yeah, I think that's gonna be nice.
I'm ready to meet this bitch.
You were in the video and you asked about
"the little situation,"
and, (bleep), this is a situation.
- She has a whole nother apartment?
- Yeah.
(woman) - Who the (bleep) is that bitch?
(woman) - I don't know.
- We gonna get these answers today.
- I'm giving you the answers!
