00:00Previously on Love and Marriage Huntsville.
00:03What you been up to?
00:04Arianne.
00:05Mm.
00:06Yeah, trying to get her to nursing school.
00:09You investing in your woman?
00:11I better.
00:12It's getting heavy.
00:13Yeah.
00:14We good.
00:15More serious, like?
00:17Like, you know, she keep on playing cards for her.
00:19She's gonna get that ring type thing.
00:20Yeah.
00:21I want you to take that thing off your head.
00:22That's what I really want you to do.
00:24I'm trying to prepare you for when you go to college.
00:26You're gonna be meeting young girls.
00:28Well, it's a good thing you don't go to college for girls.
00:30Well, you're not the fun parent.
00:32And I can understand why MJ wants to leave.
00:34We had a conversation with Marquez.
00:37Me and Marquez are definitely in a better space.
00:39You also have to give somebody the chance to change.
00:41Oh, come on.
00:44Everything.
00:45I don't see.
00:47What we?
00:49You all want to talk about something while we're here?
00:51I kind of do. I don't know about Trish.
00:53Literally, you got questions.
00:55Well, you asked a question, sir.
00:57Calm down.
00:58You came in to ask a question.
00:59I came in to drop my daughter off.
01:01Marquez is going back and forth with Sharon.
01:04And it's starting to piss me off.
01:06I need you to relax, bro.
01:07I am lying.
01:08No, you not.
01:09Because you showing out right now.
01:10You came in here with something.
01:11I didn't come in here with nothing other than to drop my daughter off.
01:13Did he not?
01:14Don't bring her into it.
01:15She don't even know nothing.
01:16She don't know nothing about me.
01:17She don't know nothing about you.
01:18Oh, Marquez.
01:19She met you four years ago.
01:20She don't know you.
01:21No, you don't.
01:22You don't know me for real.
01:24We keep it moving.
01:27All day, all night.
01:29Yeah.
01:30Ain't no stopping us.
01:32Drop that.
01:33Stop it.
01:35You know, you know.
01:38We keep it moving.
01:43All day, all night.
01:45Yeah.
01:47Yeah.
01:48All day, all night.
01:50Yeah.
01:51Ain't no stopping us.
01:53Yeah.
01:55Yeah.
02:00Up in the club.
02:01Up in the club, you know we got you mouncin'
02:03Up in the club, you know we got you mouncin'
02:05Up in the club, you know we got you mouncin'
02:07Now we got you mouncin', mouncin', mouncin'
02:09Now shaking like you're tryna get the crowd
02:11I said shaking like you're tryna get the food
02:13Now baby tune it up and boot it up
02:15And run it back down
02:16Tune it up and boot it up and run it back down
02:18Run it back down, baby, run it back down
02:20Now I'm sure...
02:21Hey, what's up?
02:23Yeah, what's going on?
02:25Should've known you was gonna be dapper though
02:27Bro, listen, this dude coming out with a t-shirt
02:29I'm like, bro, you know it's cold out there, right?
02:31I just got off the road.
02:32So after all the drama and with Marquez and the chaos he caused with Sharon,
02:39we just need a little break.
02:41Definitely.
02:41So we're meeting up with some of our friends, Kimmy and Maurice.
02:45And I think they've been through similar situations, you know.
02:47So it'll be good to get their insight and try to figure out how we can fix our issues.
02:51So what's going on in you guys' world?
02:53We just recently finished renovating our house downstairs.
02:57So we're at an Airbnb.
02:59Oh, man, I don't like staying nowhere but at home.
03:02Got to know each other a little bit better.
03:05Oh, yeah.
03:06Right.
03:07So I know y'all came to the party, the backyard party, y'all see me.
03:11For the most part, handled myself, you know, kind of well.
03:15When you're not present, you allow me, the outsider guy, to build a relationship with you not being there.
03:21You don't feel like you owe me anything.
03:23I feel like I'm compensating for you didn't do.
03:25But from your perspective, like, I guess you was in a situation with the divorce.
03:32So Marquez, at some point, this has to get resolved.
03:37I don't like going back and forth.
03:38I don't like arguing.
03:39I really don't like even being angry.
03:41Like, it takes me to another level mentally that I just don't like being.
03:45So I reached out to him for 30 minutes, of course, as a shouting match.
03:49Yeah.
03:49But Fanny was like, you know what?
03:51I'm going to make sure that at the end of this conversation, we're on good terms.
03:55And by the end of it, we were good.
03:58But it's like Marquez, it's one of them situations where it's so frustrating because we will have really good moments.
04:05And then he'd do what he did the other day.
04:07So the other day, Marquez said he's going to go get Zaria.
04:11I was at the house with my friend, Sharon.
04:14So he comes to the house.
04:15He came bursting through our door, uninvited.
04:20Was Ken there?
04:20No.
04:21So listen, as Trish and Ken are talking about Marquez just walking in, I don't even know if there can be two sides of a story on that.
04:31Like, how are you just walking in to these people's house?
04:34He felt comfortable enough.
04:35You know, he's now stepping up.
04:36He's taking care of the kids.
04:38Maybe he just got comfortable and just decided that he should walk in.
04:41He came in there while Sharon and I was talking, and he immediately got hostile with her.
04:47With her?
04:48Does he know her?
04:49No.
04:49That's what she told him.
04:50She said, I've been knowing Trisha for four years.
04:52I have never seen you in my life.
04:53What was the initiate for him getting hostile?
04:56I don't know.
04:56He just came in there with a chip on the shoulder.
04:59He came in there, like, immediately just upset for no reason.
05:03I literally just gave him a whole rundown because he asked me.
05:08He was like, man, how do you get along with her so well, man?
05:10And I literally told him, I was like, listen, bro, you have to learn how to compromise sometimes.
05:15Like, sometimes talk a little lower, change your tone a little bit.
05:19Stop being so aggressive in your speech.
05:21I was just bringing my daughter to the house.
05:22He talks real aggressive.
05:23I was like, you didn't even know to bring your daughter to the house until Xavier told you.
05:26It's difficult to give advice to Kid and Trish about the Marquez situation because you got
05:32to tread lightly when there's children involved.
05:34But my experience with Kiowa and Kimmy.
05:37You act like you haven't given me a reason to have an issue.
05:40You keep acting like I came up with this by myself.
05:43What have I done to you?
05:44All of this stuff?
05:46What have I done to you?
05:46Why do you keep saying that?
05:48What have I done to you?
05:49Kiowa, you have been ill towards me from day one.
05:53If you don't have to have contention, don't have it.
05:55If you can foster a good relationship, do that.
05:58You know, ultimately, you guys are still parents, and you're going to have to co-parent for the
06:02rest of your life.
06:03So it might as well be a good relationship.
06:06So he hasn't been stepping up, but he stepped up in that situation, right?
06:10Well, yeah.
06:11Okay.
06:12And I felt good.
06:13I said that was great.
06:14He did one good and one bad.
06:16A lot of the key to getting along is getting along.
06:20So, to me, I think that...
06:22Not to cut you off, but the thing about it is, is we're there every day.
06:26The kids live with us.
06:28Go to our school and ask the principal who they know.
06:30Go to the teacher and ask the teacher who comes and sits in their class.
06:33They don't see them, they see me.
06:35No matter what, he's going to be your children's father, right?
06:39Good, bad, or indifferent, he's going to be the kid's father.
06:41It's how can we make sure that we do whatever it is that we can do the best possible way.
06:49And what's the best way to move forward?
06:50As a profession, I have to look at both sides of the coin, you know what I mean?
06:55Because at the end of the day, there's something that has him, you know, acting the way that
07:00he's acting.
07:00He still has to learn how to be respectful to me.
07:03Like, everybody wants me to respect the boundary as far as him being their father.
07:07It's like, when do you respect the boundary of, you know, now this is, I know it might
07:11sound weird, but it's, those are your kids, but this is my family now.
07:15And I was like, dude, I'm not trying to eliminate you as their father, you're doing that yourself
07:20by not being there.
07:23Like, it's weird, it's very weird to think that sometimes people would rather their children
07:29not like you than to like you.
07:32For them to actually like the step-parent turns out to be a problem.
07:38I don't feel like I'm doing anything wrong, but I'm constantly trying to fix the problem.
07:42I'm the one that's constantly reaching out.
07:44I'm the one that's constantly letting you throw low blows and letting you say what you
07:49want to say and not saying nothing back.
07:51Can't stop this, cream of the crop, can't top this.
07:59I'm the best of the best, number one spot on your hot list.
08:02What you think this is, it's not a game, but I play to win.
08:06Might be insane because I'm crazy rich, so queer, the straight jacket never fits.
08:10Kiss the ring, because I'm royalty.
08:14Kiss the ring.
08:15Hi, welcome in.
08:16Hello there.
08:17I am looking for, I guess, some dining room furniture, living room, and a couple bedrooms.
08:24Okay.
08:25Well, we do have a really great dining table over here.
08:27Okay.
08:28So today I'm meeting Destiny.
08:30I shared with her that I'm going to the furniture store.
08:32I need some furniture for my investment property.
08:35Arianne's talking about moving in.
08:36I think it shows that I'm committed to her.
08:39We've made plans in terms of, you know, growing our lives together.
08:42This is a live edge table, so it's going to have a lot of great character to it.
08:47Yes, I see that.
08:48I'm going to just look throughout the store.
08:50Okay.
08:50And if I need some assistance, I'll holler back at you.
08:52Yeah.
09:01Hey.
09:01What's up?
09:02Hey, what's up?
09:03You're trying to find some stuff.
09:04Good to see you.
09:05Good to see you, too.
09:06I got some nice pieces up in here.
09:07It just depends on what one would be looking for.
09:10I got some...
09:11I need some things.
09:12You know, Jerrica's doing my space.
09:14Oh, really?
09:15I moved downstairs.
09:16Downstairs to where?
09:17So, remember when you came to the first location upstairs that you...
09:20You or your friend Lance was supposed to help.
09:23I know it looks like a storage.
09:24It looks like...
09:26It looks like a storage.
09:27But it's such an eclectic building.
09:29Every time a new place opens, people are converting them into boutiques, hair salons.
09:33Mine is more of a workspace, and I haven't decided if I want to open it to the public yet.
09:38But this is where I'm creating all my products.
09:40Oh, so you got like a little storefront.
09:42Correct.
09:42Oh, that's what's up.
09:44What you looking for?
09:45So, moving Arianne and my son and her daughter into my career.
09:51I'm sorry to say what?
09:55Coming up on Love & Marriage Huntsville.
09:58I would like for my brokerage office to be done first.
10:00On getting your brokerage office done?
10:04Yes.
10:04Yeah, I mean, I thought it was going to be pretty soon.
10:08The thing is, you got to see what you've done in this thing.
10:12What did you do?
10:14I didn't leave a long time ago.
10:15My dad told me on the day that we were getting married that it won't last five years.
10:21What you looking for?
10:22So, moving Arianne and my son and her daughter into my career.
10:28I'm sorry to say what?
10:29I'm moving her into my investment career.
10:33Oh.
10:34Yeah.
10:35Oh, okay.
10:36What?
10:37I'm like, wait, y'all moving in together?
10:39No, we can't live together until we get married or something like that.
10:42Oh, you're going to do it right.
10:43So, you gave her a ring?
10:45We're not engaged yet.
10:46Okay.
10:47You said yet.
10:48Yeah, not yet.
10:49I mean, we're looking forward to all of that.
10:50Okay.
10:51You know the steps to it.
10:51You been looking at rings?
10:52A little bit.
10:57A little bit.
10:58So, I would definitely say Arianne, she is wife of material.
11:01And that's the only reason I've been pondering on that.
11:04Because she does have those qualities.
11:06Um, in terms of, you know, the respect is there.
11:10The taking care of me is there.
11:12Um, the simple things.
11:15The cooking.
11:16Making sure the family is good.
11:18I pay attention to all of that.
11:19Um, to a person that I want to make my wife.
11:23Because all that is important.
11:25I thought when a man knows, he knows.
11:26Like, it just...
11:27Oh, yeah.
11:27But you still got to take steps.
11:29Especially when you're 43 years old.
11:31And when you've been married before.
11:33And that seem fresh.
11:35And you got children.
11:36You got to make sure that you don't just make any...
11:37What seems fresh?
11:39My divorce.
11:40I'm still trying to shake off still, though.
11:42You know what I'm saying?
11:43Because I'm reminded in terms of having four children by her.
11:45Every day.
11:46Are you still stuck?
11:48No, I'm not stuck.
11:49I'm not even thinking about my...
11:50You think about it every day.
11:52That's stuck, bruh.
11:54It's more of...
11:56I keep suggesting you go into therapy.
11:58And, like, working with various people.
12:00So you can get through that.
12:02Oh, there's counseling.
12:03Because you don't...
12:05That's why you're still stuck, bruh.
12:06No, I ain't stuck.
12:07You didn't have a conversation with somebody.
12:09So for me, it's difficult to know when to...
12:11To stay and fight.
12:13Or to give up.
12:15But out of everybody, I would definitely think that Destiny would know.
12:18She would know about all this.
12:20Because, again, she's going through some of the same things that I'm going through.
12:23Well, somewhat.
12:25So what happened with Lance?
12:27I feel like I gave him an open book test and he failed.
12:29Oh, damn.
12:30Just like a man.
12:31I ain't failed a few of them.
12:33Did you, like, break up with him?
12:35It just kind of fizzled out.
12:37You date to try to figure out if it's going to be more.
12:39And it never became more.
12:40So are you going to be dating anyone else?
12:41If somebody piques my interest and they ask me out, I'm going to say yes.
12:45I think Lance is an old soul.
12:47But I also think he has a lot of things going on in his life.
12:52And as far as relationship goes, I don't know if he was really ready for that.
12:55But, like, dating life is good.
13:00Great, actually.
13:02And I think Lance is a nice guy.
13:04Just not the guy for me.
13:06Yeah, you need to let me coach you so you can get you a man.
13:13What?
13:14I'm serious.
13:14You probably did.
13:17No, thank you.
13:17Purchasing 10 acres.
13:44Up a 200-foot elevation.
13:46On the opposite side of a limestone rock quarry.
13:51Not understanding that you have to blast boulders the size of trucks.
13:57We put about 500 cubic yards of concrete.
14:01But when we got 18-inch steel I-beams.
14:06So, no.
14:07Scott Manor is not a house.
14:10Scott Manor is definitely a mansion.
14:15Here comes the boss.
14:16Hey, girl.
14:18Woo!
14:19Is that the top of the house?
14:21How tall those beams right there are?
14:23That's going to be the top of the roof, maybe six inches down.
14:27Oh, wow.
14:28We've been building on Scott Manor since 2019.
14:32It has been a very long process.
14:34I feel like I've made plenty of sacrifices for this particular home.
14:39I'm happy we're starting to see something because the last time we was here, it was just this right here.
14:44This wasn't up.
14:46None of this was up.
14:47Last time I was here, this wasn't here.
14:49Y'all sitting to see something now, but it takes less time to do this than it does to prep the ground.
14:53All right, it took us years to prep the ground.
14:56But look at this view.
14:57Look who we're walking out to.
14:59Bruh.
15:01We have three kids sharing one bathroom.
15:03So, I'm so ready to move into Scott Manor.
15:07It's just so funny seeing how our kids are growing up and the personality they're taking.
15:11I'm super happy.
15:12They have, they're well-rounded.
15:14They're just intelligent.
15:15They're all 4.0 students.
15:17MJ's about to be 18.
15:19Ship your boy off to college.
15:22You excited about where he's going to go?
15:24No.
15:25I want him to go to Michigan.
15:27I'm sure.
15:28That's where he wants to go.
15:29I want him to go to Michigan.
15:29He's not ready to face it.
15:31MJ wants to go to college in Michigan.
15:33And, of course, Marceau is okay with that because Marceau is from Michigan.
15:38However, I'm not okay.
15:40It's too far away.
15:42I need MJ to be a little bit closer.
15:44I need to better get in my car and reach him.
15:46I'm happy that, you know, just to see, like, where we came from to where we're at right now.
15:52And this is, like, still the beginning of everything.
15:54Like, it's not even, like, we haven't even reached our peak yet.
15:58We're doing some stuff.
15:59We're finishing up the house on Whitehall.
16:01Yeah.
16:01And I hope we're finishing up Jordan Lane, Kimmy and Reese's project in a second.
16:05Man, I tell you, they've got to get on the same page because Kimmy will tell me one thing,
16:10and then I'll come talk to Marce, and he'll tell me something totally different.
16:13You probably should listen to Kimmy because this is her main project.
16:16I know, but it's so hard communicating.
16:21Well, I'm sure Kimmy has it very clear.
16:23No, they don't.
16:24Oh, s***.
16:24Because you've been working hard on Jordan Lane.
16:27Like, I passed by the other day.
16:28I've been working for everything.
16:29I saw it.
16:29It's looking really good.
16:30I'm a hard worker, teacher.
16:32I never said you wasn't.
16:33I would like my brokerage office to be done first.
16:37On getting your brokerage office done?
16:39Yes.
16:40Yeah.
16:40I mean, I thought it was going to be pretty soon.
16:41We hit some hiccups as far as HVAC concerns.
16:52We had to move the unit.
16:54So I got the guys to move the unit from there and put it in a whole different location.
16:58Okay.
16:58It's kind of centered the floor now.
16:59Do we have a time frame on that?
17:00You should be done in 30, 45 days?
17:0430 days.
17:0530 to 45 days.
17:05I hit 30 days.
17:0730 to 45 days?
17:07Can I give a yes on 30 days?
17:0930 to 45 days?
17:09Like 30 days.
17:11Wait, 30 business days, yes.
17:1230 days.
17:13Business days.
17:14No, no, no, no, no.
17:1530 days.
17:16Mark my calendar for that.
17:17You got yourself a husband, bro.
17:18Thanks, babe.
17:19You got yourself a hug or not?
17:21Okay, so Marceau thinks that I'm joking about completing my project, and I'm not.
17:25Scott Realty Buildout has been pushed back so many times over the past year.
17:302024 was a rough year for me.
17:33I lost a lot, a lot of family members.
17:36And I just want Marceau to hurry up and complete my project because 2025 is my year.
17:41I'm claiming it.
17:42This year, I just want to just celebrate.
17:44Like, celebrate the big things and small things and just life in general.
17:49What are you thinking about?
17:50I don't know, but I do want to involve my mom in it.
17:54She got her food truck.
17:56Like, it's been taking her a while to get that off the ground, so she got the food truck going now.
18:00Wait a minute, if we're trying to celebrate life, why would you invite your mom?
18:05Because that's a huge accomplishment for her.
18:07It's something she's been working towards.
18:09She has it completed now, so...
18:11I thought you were talking about some positive stuff.
18:12It is positive.
18:13She's been celebrating life and got me all excited.
18:15Then you're going to bring your mom in.
18:17Is that what this...
18:18Is that what you...
18:18Is that what the whole thing was food?
18:19And I got to bring her up here so I can show her where her room is going to be.
18:22No.
18:23No.
18:23Yes.
18:23We do have room for a mother-in-law.
18:26We have ten full acres.
18:29Now, I would say watch out for snakes and things like that.
18:32I haven't seen any, so she should be safe out there.
18:35And for food, we have plenty of wildlife.
18:39Dang.
18:39Trust me, she could talk a deer to death.
18:44Her room is going to be right here.
18:46She's going to be like, why y'all putting me in the corner?
18:47Her room is going to be over there somewhere, over the mountain down there.
18:52Coming up on Love and Marriage Huntsville.
18:55So you believe the whole time that she didn't want to get divorced, right?
18:59That's not.
18:59I gave her to Ken.
19:01I think we do need to set boundaries, have another conversation about boundaries.
19:09We should have set boundaries two, three years ago when y'all started talking.
19:13We didn't need to.
19:14He was out of sight, out of mind.
19:15Go.
19:32Yo, Maurice, what up?
19:33How you doing?
19:34What's going on, my guy?
19:36How you doing, bro?
19:37Me and Kimmy, we had a chance to catch up with Ken and Trish.
19:40And there was a lot of conversation about Marquez.
19:43So I felt like he's not gotten his just due.
19:46I need to have a one-on-one with him.
19:48Our dinner with Ken and Trish made me think about Marquez's side of the story.
19:51And the truth is, going through divorce is two sides to each coin.
19:55And I'd like for Marquez to, you know, share his side.
19:58How long are your time, man?
19:59I'm here as much time as I need to.
20:01Absolutely. That's what you're doing?
20:03Yes, sir.
20:04That's what's up?
20:04Man, honestly, I'm glad that I'm here because I wanted to talk to you about how my divorce kind of is playing out.
20:11When I went to go sign the papers, it said that we didn't have no minor children.
20:16You know, when I went to the choir house, they told me that if I had signed it, that I would have to prove that we had children.
20:21So I didn't sign it yet.
20:25Hmm.
20:25Neither one of you guys have fraternities?
20:28No.
20:29Yeah, well...
20:29You got somebody good for me?
20:30Well, I mean...
20:31You?
20:32No, I don't do that, bro.
20:33What type of...
20:33Okay.
20:34When it comes to, like, matters of the heart, you know, I don't usually get involved in stuff like that, brother.
20:39You can't ever win in situations like that.
20:42Usually what people do, they spend money, the lawyers get paid until they're out of money, and then the court decides.
20:49Yeah, no. We don't want to do that.
20:50No.
20:51So the main thing to you is your children, right?
20:54The main thing is the children, but the main thing is also to resolve this issue with me and Trish.
20:58Until we resolve that, our children are still going to be infected.
21:01She's done a lot of different things to make it difficult for me to see my daughter without me having to force myself on her.
21:08Mm-hmm.
21:08Like, last week I stopped by the house to take Zaria home, and I walk in, and she's having a conversation with her friend and a guest about me, and it turns into a whole situation where this lady don't even know me, but she's already getting these opinions.
21:20So my main thing is figuring out how to work with Trish, because me and Ken have been, we've had a conversation.
21:25Mm-hmm. Did you reach out to him?
21:27No, he reached out to me.
21:28Ooh.
21:29He reached out, and I ain't gonna lie, I feel like he has some motives, but then, you know, hour one, hour two, hour three, I'm like, hold on.
21:38And then next thing you know, I understand why Trish loved him so much, because she's just like her dad, everything she ever wanted.
21:44And that's not me, and that's what we got to work through, man, is she always wanted me to be her dad, and I'm not him.
21:49I don't really think Marquez is an introspective guy.
21:52However, he lets on to be.
21:55But I think there's more to the breakdown of Marquez and Trish's marriage, especially more than just, you know, he wasn't like her father.
22:05There's always multiple sides to a story.
22:09The thing is, you gotta see what you've done in this thing.
22:12What did you do?
22:14What did I do?
22:16I didn't leave a long time ago.
22:18When was the long time ago?
22:22After the first year, when I knew we weren't supposed to be together.
22:26Gotcha.
22:27So what was it?
22:28I felt sorry for her.
22:29My dad told me on the day that we were getting married that it won't last five years.
22:33You wanted to prove him wrong?
22:34Yeah.
22:35And I really think that that really drove me, because when that five-year mark came and I made it, I just was like, yeah.
22:41It lasted more than five years.
22:44Seven, ten, twelve.
22:47You know, I think year ten, I really didn't want to be there.
22:49But then we had these situations with her family members, and I couldn't leave her.
22:54Like, I understand she felt like I left her, but I couldn't leave her, bro.
22:57The thing that doesn't make sense to me, though, if you're working a job, and you don't even want that job, and you are putting in your two-week notice, right, and then they said, you know what, we really don't want you, why would you still want to be there?
23:11Well, Trish never said she didn't want me.
23:17That's what divorce papers are.
23:20Yeah, but I filed a divorce.
23:22She don't want to divorce me for real.
23:23She also filed.
23:24She filed because Kim made her file.
23:29So you believed the whole time that she didn't want to get divorced, right?
23:33Of course not.
23:34I gave her to Kim.
23:39If I wanted her back, I could have her.
23:40It's not about that.
23:41I got a chance to hear Marquez's side of this story, and the truth is, Trish doesn't want you the way that you think she does.
23:51And the sooner that he's able to realize that, he'll be able to move on.
23:56Like, I lost my best friend, to be honest.
23:58You know, I still love her, but not in a way where, like, I want to be with her, but I'm going to always be there for us.
24:04In the ideal world, divorce finalized, my son moves with me, my daughter continues.
24:11You know, on her journey in dance, me and Ken, we continue to build our relationship, me and Trish build our relationship, and then we take a vacation.
24:19One big happy family, maybe I'll have a girlfriend.
24:24Am I setting unrealistic expectations on what my relationship should be?
24:28Oh, I believe so.
24:29I believe so.
24:30What does it look like with your ex?
24:32Do y'all hang out?
24:33Do y'all talk?
24:33We don't really hang out and talk.
24:35Even if you graduate to the point to where you're cordial and everything's good, that still ain't friendship, like, to the point to where you're talking about.
24:43Best friend?
24:47Yeah, no.
24:48Yeah, I think you might want to find a new girl.
24:51No, we can already get said that.
24:53I'm going to find my new best friend.
24:54Yeah, I think that you might want to find that in somebody new.
24:57Coming up on Love and Marriage Huntsville.
24:59You don't get no cool points for doing what you're supposed to do.
25:02And you don't get no cool points for being the boyfriend and doing what you're supposed to do because you live here, my guy.
25:08I'm going to tell you, the only way we're going to be able to go forward is by holding yourself accountable.
25:12Yeah, you are the cause of all this.
25:14You are the common denominator, right?
25:33How's your birthday?
25:35Uh, besides school, it was fine.
25:37I cannot believe, MJ, you're getting so old.
25:42He's not my little baby anymore.
25:44I can't believe it.
25:46Today is MJ's 18th birthday.
25:48And I really just want to spend as much time with him as I can before he goes off to college.
25:54He's not a little boy anymore.
25:56And time spent with mom is getting very, very small.
26:00I was 25 years old when I had you.
26:03Hmm.
26:03And you're graduating in 2025.
26:05Isn't that crazy?
26:07It's almost like you planned that.
26:08This is just not another birthday.
26:10Like, this is like your 18th birthday.
26:12And it's like a big birthday.
26:13Like, you're legal.
26:15Like, you can vote.
26:16You're graduating high school.
26:19You want to go to, you're going to college.
26:20But you want to go, like, away.
26:22Why do you want to go so far away from me?
26:24There's a possibility you would never live in Huntsville again.
26:27You know, the thing is, when I left home to go to college, like, I never went back.
26:34I never moved back home with my parents.
26:37If you go to Michigan for real, MJ, I'm going to get me on townhouse, like, around the corner
26:43from your campus.
26:43I don't think so.
26:47Why?
26:48I don't think they allow parents within a certain radius to the school.
26:51They don't care who purchased land outside of the campus.
26:56I'm not going to be on campus with you.
26:57But I need to come visit you at least once a week.
27:06Okay, every other weekend.
27:09Do you think that's too much?
27:10Yeah.
27:11You're not going to miss me?
27:12I always get to call Mom Elise weekly, though, so, you know.
27:15Oh, you're not going to be calling me weekly.
27:17You're going to be calling me every day.
27:18I don't know.
27:19I'm going to be FaceTiming you every night before you go to sleep.
27:21He's excited to go off to college and fly, and I want him to fly, but I also want him
27:28to know that Mom is still right here.
27:30I'm touchable, so.
27:34Are you worried about, like, leaving me?
27:38Nah.
27:39You're not at all?
27:41Nah.
27:41Why?
27:42Are you going to miss your dad?
27:44Probably.
27:46I'll just miss him a little more, Mom.
27:49Dad's kind of, like, a pillar for me.
27:53Okay.
27:55Okay.
27:56So what am I to you, then?
28:05Hmm.
28:07Probably, like, a line that just keeps me straight.
28:11Nobody sees all the work that we as moms have to do to keep the house flowing.
28:15Marceau allows the kids to get away with a lot that I do not.
28:20I have to enforce the rules.
28:22I have to enforce and make sure things get done around the house.
28:25With Marceau, they laugh and joke and play games.
28:27So, yeah, I would want that cool father, too.
28:30I'm always going to be worried about you.
28:32You're always going to be a concern of mine.
28:34Like, just because you're away in college don't mean that you're not my child anymore.
28:38You're still my child.
28:39This is to death do us part.
28:43You're always going to have home.
28:45No matter where you go, how far you go away, there's always going to be, like, a place for
28:49you in our household.
28:50You always have a safe place.
28:52Okay?
28:57And I know I always have a place to go visit.
28:59Coming up on Love and Marriage Huntsville.
29:04Or you're going to get the out.
29:06Ken.
29:07How about that?
29:07I'll put you out.
29:08Y'all better, bro.
29:09Y'all better do what?
29:10Better do what?
29:11Get out.
29:13Get out.
29:13Man, bro.
29:29Oh, yeah.
29:33Getting it all ready.
29:34Trying to.
29:35Let's watch Zarya dance tomorrow.
29:37You got everything packed?
29:39I got it together this time.
29:41We're getting ready for Zarya's first competition of the season.
29:45It's very hectic because there's so many little details that goes into each costume, each dance.
29:52But I'm excited to see how it goes.
29:54I'm tired.
29:55You're tired.
29:55What you got going?
29:56Apple juice.
29:57Okay.
29:58You all right, though?
30:01As I'm going to be, yeah.
30:03So I decided to sit in on this conversation with Marquez and Ken.
30:07And I also invited Sharon because I feel like Marquez owes her a much-need apology.
30:12We do need to clear the air.
30:13I think he definitely owes Sharon an apology.
30:16I felt like, you know, after all the conversations me and him have had, we had a better understanding.
30:21But obviously, we don't.
30:23And I'm willing to hear him out maybe just this one more time.
30:26But I think this is about...
30:28I still feel this is not going to go well.
30:30I don't think so.
30:30No.
30:31I know you're frustrated, but we got to set up some boundaries and some, you know, make
30:40sure people understand their roles in this situation.
30:44So I just want you to be open to listening.
30:49And I feel like we never really have an issue until he comes around.
30:55So, you know, we got to nip that in the bud and make sure that, you know, everybody, again,
31:01understands their role.
31:03Yeah.
31:04Before I go from zero to a million.
31:06Yeah, we don't have to do that.
31:08With Marquez, we've had a conversation or two about boundaries.
31:11But I don't know if I've always been as direct as I need to be.
31:15Like, in his mind, you know, that's my wife.
31:19Those are my kids.
31:20I can do what I want.
31:22And that's just realistically not how it goes.
31:24That's dumb I've ever heard.
31:26And not how it's going to go with me.
31:28I mean, he does have some points that we need to listen to.
31:32I'm not saying that all of them are valid.
31:34But we still got to, you know, allow him to express himself the way he feels.
31:40You want me to get that one?
31:48Well, come on in.
31:51Hello.
31:52We don't get to open the door?
31:54This is crazy work.
31:56What's up?
31:57It's cold.
31:58You all right, man?
31:59Did you say come in?
32:00Baby.
32:01Come on, come on, come on.
32:02Oh, man.
32:04What's going on?
32:04You all right, boy?
32:06I'm good.
32:07What's going on?
32:08Man.
32:08So, I mean, you know why we're here.
32:13Can I hold my turn down?
32:14Can I get a drink?
32:16Asking Ken where his drink is, he gives you this ass energy.
32:22I know him.
32:23He's going to give you this soft, weak link, but then he's going to get under your skin and
32:28try to piss you off.
32:29Here comes this little hot dog.
32:31He's going to piss me off.
32:32I was gone the other day when the whole little incident went down.
32:39I think it's kind of frustrating for me because we've had conversations about, you know, trying
32:44to do better, being better.
32:46And I feel like that situation kind of put us backwards.
32:49But I think we do need to set boundaries, have another conversation about boundaries.
32:55Set boundaries?
32:56We should have set boundaries two, three years ago when y'all started talking.
33:01Matter of fact, it should have been boundaries before anybody came into the picture, and
33:03that's my fault.
33:04Yeah, you're right.
33:04We never had that conversation.
33:05No, we didn't need to.
33:06You was out of sight, out of mind.
33:08Oh, I'm...
33:08You were out of sight, out of mind.
33:10Okay, so recently, you know, I picked up Zarya.
33:17The day that I came over, when I walk in, it's automatic hostility and animosity.
33:22You came into my house uninvited.
33:25Marques and I are getting a divorce.
33:27Ken and I live here.
33:28You don't live here.
33:29I mean, it's not rocket science.
33:31You just don't barge into someone's house, especially when you don't live there.
33:34Okay, how about this, Ken?
33:35Ken, boundary set, now what?
33:37Boundary set, I'll make sure I call.
33:39I'll make sure that I knock on the door.
33:40Now what?
33:41Now what are we doing now?
33:42I mean, hold on, hold on.
33:44What are we doing now?
33:45But here's the thing.
33:45This is why this conversation has to...
33:47What are we doing now?
33:47Go get that.
33:49This is why the conversation has to be had, because Marques, you're saying, you're speaking
33:53as if somebody is asking you to do something that isn't, to me, already understood or...
33:59Like, bro, I just wouldn't walk in your house.
34:02Bro, I did not walk in the house, Ken.
34:04You gotta understand, that's my daughter.
34:05She opened the door, bro.
34:06What is you saying?
34:07I'm not gonna let her walk in with two drinks and three bags, bro.
34:10I don't care if it was my house, my granny house, her house, somebody else's house.
34:14I'm not letting her walk in with two drinks and three bags, bro.
34:17I apologize.
34:17You should have stayed in the doorstep.
34:18Now, okay, well, guess what?
34:19You should have handled it differently.
34:21No, I shouldn't have.
34:21You should have been more mature.
34:22Yes, you should have said...
34:23What?
34:23Because you came already on the rip, and I don't even know this lady.
34:26Because...
34:26This lady came in...
34:27You have never done it before.
34:29Hold on, hold on, hold on.
34:30No, the energy...
34:30No, Sharon...
34:31Would you like to introduce me?
34:32Sharon cut off my energy.
34:34How you doing?
34:34You have never been to see you again, Marquise.
34:37I would like to apologize for the energy, because I felt like I don't know you, right?
34:40And when I came in, because I thought we were in a better position, right?
34:43Because I didn't want my daughter to walk in with these bags.
34:46Okay, that's my mindset.
34:47Hear me out.
34:48You still should have...
34:49Hear me out.
34:49Okay, let's get past that part.
34:50Would you like to sit down?
34:51Please, thank you.
34:52Come on, here you go.
34:53You want something to drink?
34:54No, I'm good.
34:55Okay, can I get something to drink?
34:56Because I'm kind of thirsty.
34:57I'm sorry, I didn't bring nothing because I didn't know.
34:59Okay, but next time I'll bring a bottle.
35:01So what made you feel like you can impugn my character?
35:03What made you feel like you had to demean me in front of this lady that you said is your
35:07close friend, right?
35:08There's no need to express anything that happened in the past.
35:11The past is past.
35:12Let's live in the present.
35:14Let's do what we got to do for the kids, and let's keep it moving.
35:16How can we...
35:17Hold on.
35:18How can we get past that?
35:19Hold on, hold on.
35:20Because I really don't care.
35:21But you should care.
35:23If you really cared about the kids, you should care.
35:25No, I care about the kids.
35:25Because you don't care about...
35:27Hold on, hold on.
35:27Because if you cared, you wouldn't be doing all this.
35:29Bro, you're broken.
35:30Let me say this.
35:31Here's the thing, Marquez.
35:32I would like for both of you, like, because I tell her this.
35:36Stop bringing the kids in the middle of situations that the kids...
35:39No, kids are affected every time.
35:39Listen, listen.
35:40No, they're not.
35:41Yes, they are.
35:41I'm going to tell you.
35:41I'm going to be 100 with you.
35:42We're being honest with each other right now.
35:44These kids aren't traumatized about nothing.
35:46Do they miss you?
35:47Does Xavier miss having a certain relationship with you?
35:50Yes.
35:51But are they going through some traumatic situation where they're just so hurt?
35:55No, they're not, bro.
35:56Your mother is traumatizing them, bro.
35:57No, no.
35:58Listen, bro, listen.
35:59What do you mean?
36:00No, they're not.
36:01They not, bro.
36:01First of all, me and my kids have our conversations.
36:05Y'all don't know what we're talking about.
36:07No, you can't assure me anything when it comes to my children, Ken.
36:10Okay.
36:10Well, you can't assure me anything when it comes to my children, Ken.
36:12You want to know how I can?
36:13The conversations that we...
36:14No, you can't.
36:15Because I'm active.
36:15You can't.
36:16I'm the active one.
36:16Bro, I'm active, bro.
36:17Hold on, hold on, hold on.
36:19You're letting my emotions.
36:20We can't go back here.
36:20It's not going back.
36:22The reality of it is...
36:23It feels like it's going back.
36:23Listen to me.
36:24This is the reality.
36:25Those are your kids, right?
36:26Correct.
36:27You can agree to that, right?
36:28Absolutely.
36:28But right now, this is my family.
36:30It's my family.
36:39This is the reality.
36:41Those are your kids, right?
36:42Correct.
36:43You can agree to that, right?
36:44Absolutely.
36:44But right now, this is my family.
36:48It's my family.
36:51It is the family.
36:52No, you're the boyfriend to Trish.
36:53No, it's my family.
36:54And you're the bonus guy, like you said, right?
36:56You're the bonus guy.
36:57But it's still my family.
36:58It's still my family.
36:59What does family mean?
37:01Family.
37:01We live together.
37:02What's the definition of family?
37:03We do everything together.
37:04Guess what?
37:05I take Zaria to dance.
37:06I pick her up from dance.
37:07Her competition, are you going to be at her competition tomorrow?
37:09I'm so f***ing newly.
37:10Did I not give you money?
37:12Bro, you gave me $500.
37:13You know how much f***ing it costs?
37:15Like, you get no cool points for doing what you're supposed to do.
37:18And you don't get no cool points for being the boyfriend anymore.
37:22You're doing what you're supposed to do because you live here, my guy.
37:24I'm going to tell you, the only way we're going to be able to go forward
37:26is by holding yourself accountable and being real with yourself.
37:29Bro, I've been holding myself.
37:31Being real.
37:31Yo.
37:31Because at the end of the day.
37:33Trisha, you need to be real with yourself.
37:34At the end of the day.
37:35I got you.
37:35You need to be real with this conversation.
37:36You are the cause of all this.
37:38You are the common denominator, right?
37:40I don't have to do this.
37:40I don't have to take accountability, but it starts with you.
37:43And if you're not ready, then he's not going to be ready.
37:45Then I'm not going to be ready.
37:46The way he talks to Trisha, he talks to her as if he has that right
37:50to be disrespectful, and he's doing it in my face.
37:54Now, I don't care what nobody else do.
37:56You're not going to disrespect my woman in my face.
37:58You know where I was at tonight?
37:59I'm juggling being here.
38:00I had to go to Alex's football games.
38:03I'm all active, bro.
38:04They see me in the flesh.
38:05And they see me.
38:06Not a text message.
38:06And they see me.
38:07Not a phone call.
38:07And they see me.
38:08They see me in the flesh.
38:09And Zaria saw me.
38:10And Zaria saw me.
38:11You can do this.
38:12I'm here, bro.
38:12I'm in Hunsville.
38:13I'm here now.
38:14We ain't got to see each other.
38:15You can see each other.
38:15I'm here now.
38:16Now, what does it look like?
38:17How do we set up these boundaries?
38:18Hold on.
38:20The divorce, right?
38:21I called the courthouse.
38:23They said we waiting for a court date.
38:24Because obviously, you put on there and said
38:25we had no minor children.
38:26Bro, that's a lie, bro.
38:28We can go prove it, bro.
38:30We can prove that.
38:31We can prove that.
38:33At the end of the day, Marquez definitely knows
38:35that the kid's name on that paperwork.
38:37And it's so frustrating because, you know,
38:39he has the same paperwork that we were presenting to him.
38:42I just feel like the guy just loves picking.
38:44Yeah, he just loves picking.
38:46And, you know, he sees that this is almost, you know,
38:50the end of the road for them being married
38:53and him having that access to her.
38:55And I just think he doesn't.
38:56He's not ready to let it go.
38:57What's the date stamped on that at the courthouse?
38:59September 19th.
39:00And what does it say?
39:01No minor children?
39:03Does it say something about no minor children?
39:04What does it say?
39:05What does it say on there?
39:06Let me see.
39:07Hold on.
39:07Why are you showing it to her?
39:08Who's naming stuff on there?
39:10Xavier.
39:10Why are you showing it to her?
39:11Where?
39:12It's already.
39:13When?
39:13Hey, that's why you got to stop lying, bro.
39:15What am I lying about, bro?
39:16That's why you got to stop lying.
39:18You said that the kid's name went on there.
39:19The kid's name are right there.
39:21We got reassigned because you were testing it.
39:22Who's the judge?
39:23So we got reassigned.
39:24Right because you put on there that we didn't have no minor children.
39:26Wait, you told me it says it right there.
39:28Yes, you don't.
39:28Calm, man.
39:29Get your job, bro.
39:30No, bro.
39:30I'm going to do it.
39:32Look.
39:32It says it right there.
39:33Xavier Burnett.
39:34Zaria Reed.
39:35Exactly.
39:36Man, stop lying.
39:37Relax, bro.
39:38Here's the thing, Marquez.
39:38The energy is off.
39:39Hey, Marquez, sit down.
39:40Just sit down.
39:41Nah, bro.
39:41I'm going to sit down or you're going to sit down or you're going to get the out?
39:46Ken, stop.
39:47How about that?
39:47Or you're going to get out?
39:48Ken, stop.
39:49Or you're going to get out?
39:50Nah, I'm just going to go out.
39:50Point point appeal.
39:51Are you going to get out?
39:51It is what it is.
39:53I'll put you out.
39:54It's black and white.
39:54We can do it that way.
39:55It is what it is.
39:56Damn, bro.
39:57Like, you make this.
39:59It's right there.
39:59Are we moving forward?
40:00It's right.
40:00We can't move forward.
40:01We're going to keep lying.
40:02What do you say, dude?
40:03Bro, are you serious?
40:04We got put the S right here, bro.
40:06That has nothing to do it, bro.
40:07Ken, this is the lie.
40:09This is the lie.
40:09It's right here.
40:10It's right here.
40:12Stop lying all the time, dude.
40:14You're being disrespectful, bro.
40:15What about you and disrespectful
40:16by walking in my house?
40:17Ken, come on.
40:18You just did it again.
40:18You just did it again.
40:19Hey, y'all better have...
40:20Bro, y'all better...
40:21I better do what?
40:22Better do what?
40:23Better do...
40:23Get out.
40:24Get out.
40:24Man, bro, I'm telling you, it's going to be bad.
40:26Get out.
40:26Get out.
40:27Get out.
40:27Get.
40:28Stop.
40:28Stop.
40:29Next on Love and Marriage Huntsville.
40:33Growing up, when me and him were both in the house,
40:36you would always come ask me to do stuff.
40:39I didn't really like that.
40:41Did you feel difference in love?
40:42Like, I love Monster Hunter.
40:44Uh...
40:45What are you going to do
40:47when Marquez pops back up?
40:48You can't get away from this guy.
40:49So, here's the thing.
40:51I'm not dealing with him.
40:52But you do, though.
40:53You guys keep trying to talk and then...
40:54No, no, no, it's not.
40:55I'm trying to cater to his emotions
40:57and his feelings and trying to...
40:59I'm almost treating him...
40:59You ain't trying to marry him.
41:02Lance had mentioned wanting to hang out with Ken.
41:04He had got a call saying he needed to get back.
41:07He had a baby on the way in labor.
41:09When I saw that on social media,
41:11I was side-eyeing you.
41:12I was like, not Neil having him a destiny date.
41:15He had a whole girl pregnant the whole time.
41:19I was actually talking to Jaylen.
41:21He came by...
41:21He actually felt...
41:22He's not asking for help.
41:24He thinks of me like a dad.
