00:00Previously on Bell Collective.

00:02I'm having a birthday party.

00:03I'm celebrating my thriving 45.

00:07What up, fam?

00:08Cedric lost his brother, and that death

00:10brought us back together.

00:14We're taking things slow.

00:16Happy birthday!

00:24I have rekindled things with my ex-husband.

00:28And I also have a friend I've been seeing for quite some time.

00:33Let's go, Mari.

00:34I like him.

00:35What in the poly is going on here?

00:38I went to a wedding venue.

00:40And before we go down this aisle,

00:42I always want to make sure we on the right track.

00:46I don't even know where the hell to start.

00:47I cannot go into this marriage without communication.

00:52Right.

00:53How do you feel about the reconnection

00:54of Latrice and Leticia?

00:55Oh, God.

00:56Douglas, in my deal.

00:58What?

00:59What?

01:01That's a girl.

01:02Amanda's my girl, and Tisha's my girl.

01:06So where do I go from here?

01:07God, let's go, let's go.

01:08Oh, my God.

01:09What?

01:10We have to go.

01:11Whether you start to the front.

01:14We have to go, I'll show you.

01:15We'll be right back then.

01:16Oh, my God.

01:17Let's go.

01:17Oh, my God.

01:18Go, my God.

01:20Go, my God.

01:22We will be right there.

01:23We're going.

01:24Hit this right.

01:24It's great.

01:25I'll show you.

01:26The light is fine.

01:27I'll show you.

01:28I'll show you what I'm doing.

01:28It's great.

01:29I'll show you.

01:30I'll show you what I'm doing.

01:31I'll show you.

02:01How you doing, ma'am?

02:02Welcome to Monty's.

02:05Table for two, please?

02:06Yes, ma'am.

02:07We have a table right over here for you.

02:08Oh, perfect.

02:14This is Letitia Pearson, your bail bondsman from yesterday.

02:17I just wanted to call to give you an update

02:19on your next court date.

02:22The people always want to know, what's going on at Letitia

02:25Pearson's Enterprise, OK?

02:27It's more than brunching.

02:28I am a paralegal.

02:30I'm a bail bondsman.

02:31I have a mentorship program.

02:34I'm literally a Jill of all trades.

02:37I can file your divorce for you, honey,

02:40and go over here and bond you out of jail.

02:42Stop playing with me.

02:43Living my best life 24-7.

02:46Yeah.

02:47All the pressures applied, you should feel threatened.

02:53OK, thank you.

02:54I'll talk to you soon.

02:55Bye.

02:56Hey, my girl.

02:57It's giving.

02:58It's giving.

02:59It's giving.

03:00Um, Whitley Gilbert.

03:01Yes.

03:02Jasmine.

03:03Yes, girl.

03:05I'm super excited to see my girl Carrie today and catch up,

03:08not just on the mess that happened at Marie's party,

03:11but to talk to her about an upcoming event called the Relunch

03:15Social that I want to collaborate with her on.

03:17Girl, can we hear?

03:18Can we what, girl?

03:19Can we what?

03:20Can we what?

03:21Can we what?

03:22Baby Jackson showed out last week when I saw y'all.

03:25So I want to ask you.

03:26So what did you think about the party?

03:28Like, what did you think?

03:30I had a great time.

03:31I mean, I thought it was Jackson.

03:36It wasn't giving coastal vibes.

03:37Well, oh, not the shade.

03:39Here you go.

03:40Not the shade.

03:42Now, Carrie, you my girl and all,

03:44but you know how to throw some shade when it comes to Jackson.

03:47If you want to be a part of this collective,

03:49you're going to have to tread lightly, OK?

03:51We don't play over here.

03:53I guess everybody was stressed out.

03:54There was some tension.

03:55Mm-hmm.

03:55There was some tension.

03:56I could feel it.

03:57I think it was, I don't think it was a lot of tension.

03:58I think it was confusion.

04:00How you doing?

04:01Oh, you look amazing.

04:03Good to see you.

04:05Thank you for the invitation.

04:06Absolutely.

04:07Hello, Jess.

04:08I'm good.

04:09Because I was like, what is going on?

04:11Like, is this a love triangle?

04:13Like, OK, here's the thing.

04:16I invited Martin first, and I invited Cedric,

04:19but Cedric said he wasn't coming.

04:21So, Marie, you mean to tell me they don't even

04:23know anything about each other?

04:25Well, Cedric is aware that I had a white friend guy.

04:30I do not know, honestly.

04:32Two plus two is definitely not giving four,

04:34so I don't know what this is.

04:37Watching Marie juggle this love life triangle thing,

04:41with Cedric and Martin.

04:42I'm concerned, because you're putting your heart out there

04:45on the line, and I do not want you hurt.

04:48So you've got to figure this out.

04:50Now, you know, I'm trying to get back to my purpose,

04:53which Bruncher has always been a part of.

04:55So we're talking about a relaunch,

04:57and it's a social to introduce Women Brunch

04:59Mississippi is coming back.

05:00OK.

05:01Bruncher is not going anywhere.

05:03Well, you've got to get some sponsors.

05:04Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

05:05That's your first step.

05:06And I've been doing this on my own.

05:08That's the thing.

05:09So is it going to be like a sit down,

05:11or it's just a chill, air body mingling, social type?

05:14Um, no, it's the socials.

05:15It's not a sit down brunch.

05:16It's not a brunch.

05:17OK.

05:18But we're going to have brunch food.

05:19I want to have an intimate party called the Relaunch Social

05:24to announce the upcoming tour of Women Brunch Mississippi.

05:28And Kerri is a good partner to help me on the Relaunch Social

05:32because she is a social butterfly,

05:34and she's good at hosting events.

05:36So hey, it works.

05:37She is perfect.

05:39I've been doing this on my own.

05:41Not anymore, honey.

05:42Good.

05:42I got you.

05:43As long as we got our mimosas, baby.

05:45Yes, mimosas queen.

05:46Ha ha ha ha ha.

06:06Good morning, Jessica.

06:07Good morning.

06:08How you doing?

06:09How about yourself?

06:09Good.

06:10I'll be with you all shortly to begin our meeting.

06:12OK.

06:14Good morning.

06:15So how you been?

06:16We really hadn't talked since the party.

06:19We have not.

06:20But first, real quick, I've updated and revised

06:24Hamilton Davis mental health, the opioid treatment

06:26clinic policy, as well as the mental health policy.

06:31OK.

06:32Business is great.

06:33Hamilton Davis is doing exceptionally well.

06:37Currently, we are renovating a 26-bed facility

06:40for some of our patients.

06:43Overall, Hamilton Davis is thriving.

06:46How's your health?

06:48I'm feeling OK.

06:49For the most part, I'm doing well.

06:50I'm doing well.

06:51I had a great report in Birmingham last week.

06:55So everything is moving right along.

06:58Good.

06:59God got you.

07:00God got me, so.

07:01Yeah.

07:02Currently, Essie is traveling to and from Alabama

07:06for her lung transplant.

07:08And in spite of what Essie's going through,

07:10she's pushing through.

07:13I want to have a conversation with you

07:15about a conversation I've had with you previously.

07:18OK.

07:20H.D. Hamilton Davis is doing phenomenal.

07:23Yes.

07:24And I am so proud of us, of how far we have come.

07:29Mm-hmm.

07:30We have planted the seeds, and we are reaping the harvest.

07:34With that being said, it'll be great for me to retire.

07:38You know, I've been an entrepreneur for 25 years.

07:41I've put in a lot of work into building the Hamilton Davis brand.

07:45And there's pretty much nothing else I can do when it comes to health care.

07:51I've put in the work, and I feel like it's time for me to retire.

07:54No, you cannot retire right now.

07:57Give me another year.

07:58You said that last year.

08:00Yeah, give me another year.

08:01So we can't hire another executive director to do what I do.

08:05No.

08:06Nobody's going to do it like you do.

08:08So 12 more months.

08:0912 more months.

08:11And I say, OK, Ri, you can go.

08:12I'm sorry.

08:13I can't do it.

08:14If you stop trying to juggle all these men,

08:16you will have time to do it.

08:21Yes.

08:22No the didn't say that.

08:23Yes.

08:25And see, with the mess, she never stops.

08:28Like, I'm living my life.

08:30The difference between me and others

08:32is I'm being upfront with what I'm doing.

08:36The party I thought would be a disaster

08:38when I saw Martin walking in.

08:41And if Martin had been a different person

08:43or Sid had been a different person,

08:45it would have been some stuff thrown, some furniture moved.

08:49And then, Hesla, you out here dancing with both of them

08:53just like.

08:53And I was shooting some rolling with both of them.

08:56I'm like, I'm going.

08:57Good.

08:58Look at that.

08:59I'm like, what is she going to go?

09:01I'm like, yeah.

09:01I'm going to get you.

09:06I'm like, oh my god.

09:07.

09:09Even though the party was fun, I'm conflicted.

09:12Honestly, it's a lot for me to process,

09:15because like, you know, I love Cedric.

09:18Mm-hmm.

09:18And, you know, I like Martin.

09:22People think that Martin is a fly-by-night,

09:24oh, I'm just doing something to pass time.

09:26But actually, I have grown to care about Martin.

09:30I do.

09:32That man had me on the back of that jet ski,

09:36ride me from one side of the ocean to the next.

09:39I would not have never did anything like that ever.

09:44Yeah.

09:45So, you know, he just.

09:46He just brought something different.

09:47He brought something different into my life

09:49and just showed me a different way of life,

09:51a different culture.

09:52And I like that.

09:53Mm-hmm.

09:54You know, I really enjoyed him.

09:56So I'm wrestling.

09:58I have not heard a word from Martin for two weeks

10:01since he been out of town.

10:02And now I'm at a crossroads as to, you know,

10:07how am I going to proceed with him in my life?

10:11I do love Cedric.

10:12I do.

10:14But then on the other hand, you know, I was having fun.

10:17You need to get your stuff together, baby,

10:19because you got too much going on.

10:22My heart is leading in a certain direction,

10:25but I need to have a conversation with Martin.

10:28I need clarity at this point.

10:31Now, I need to know who to root for.

10:33Both of them.

10:37Coming up on Bell Collective.

10:39Communication is key.

10:40Sometimes you be moving like you my boyfriend,

10:43not my fiance.

10:44The way you got me is the way you need to keep me.

10:48I have not heard from you.

10:49I have not seen your butt.

10:50Like, my friend seems like she a little distant.

10:53I've been in my pillows.

10:54I ain't going to lie.

11:00You know, I really like you.

11:03I'm so sorry.

11:05Go ahead, pop another bottle.

11:07What?

11:08Because I'm stepping on the scene.

11:10Oh.

11:11And we about to celebrate, yeah.

11:13We about to celebrate me, yeah.

11:16Why you tripping all the time?

11:18I be tripping all the time.

11:19I be getting to the paper.

11:21You know I'm against mine.

11:22I be putting in that work, yeah.

11:25Baby, I'm going to make it work, yeah.

11:31Ri, what you cooking in there?

11:33It's a surprise.

11:34It's a surprise.

11:36Stay tuned.

11:37All right.

11:38You're going to love it.

11:40Mm-hmm.

11:41Mm-hmm.

11:43Say it.

11:43Yo.

11:45What do you think about my birthday party?

11:47It was lit.

11:47It was nice.

11:48It was nice?

11:49I'm glad you came.

11:51Oh, yeah.

11:52I had to.

11:54Look, I'm still torn between Cedric and Martin,

11:58but had a date night with Cedric,

12:00and one thing led to another, and here I am.

12:04Did you enjoy yourself at your birthday party?

12:06I did.

12:07I enjoyed myself.

12:09Um, you know, I felt at first uncomfortable a little bit.

12:15Why were you uncomfortable?

12:16I had, you know, you were there.

12:19I had you there, and then my friend showed up.

12:23Well, I told him, you know, my name.

12:27I told him that we have a daughter to go.

12:29Marie and I have a 12-year-old daughter.

12:31Yes.

12:32And then, uh, I've been married before.

12:35Yes.

12:36We had two children, so, yeah.

12:37Okay.

12:38So that's 17 and 19.

12:39Oh, that's great.

12:40Yeah.

12:41Oh, okay.

12:42But it felt awkward, though.

12:44Here you are, dancing with this guy,

12:47and you're trying to dance with me, too.

12:50Come on!

12:53It's my birthday!

12:55It's my birthday!

12:56I felt like a sucker.

12:58I just felt unsettled.

13:00I was unsettled, too, because you know what?

13:02Think about this.

13:03Just like I said, I felt uncomfortable having you there

13:06and having my friend there.

13:08And I don't ever want to be in that position ever again.

13:12The reason why I think that I'm right for Marie

13:15is because I got unconditional love in my heart.

13:19Why?

13:19Because we got so much of history together.

13:21We got a whole baby together.

13:23We done built our family around each other.

13:25You know, we're taking the one day at a time, Marie.

13:29But that moment made me feel like maybe this is not

13:35right now for us.

13:37I get it.

13:38But, like, just bear with me.

13:43I'm working through it.

13:44Yeah.

13:45I'm here with you.

13:47Yeah, that's true.

13:48Okay, I could have been over there with him in his bed.

13:50I'm here with you.

13:53Marie, in terms of that guy, your friend and everything,

13:58you know, what I do want you to know is that it'll

14:01mean the world to me for you just to be happy.

14:04Mm-hmm.

14:06I'm going to wait until you communicate with me

14:10that you are settled.

14:11All right.

14:13I like Martin.

14:14I really like him.

14:15He's a great person.

14:17But I love Cedric.

14:19It's complicated.

14:22I have had so much on my plate.

14:28I have been one busy mama.

14:41My daughter Skye has a baby on the way.

14:43Then, also, I want to do the all-white event in honor

14:46of my son, Quincy Johnson.

14:48I'm trying to see if it's the right spot for my event.

14:50This is like my baby.

14:51Right.

14:52You know, this is memories of my son.

14:54The last thing I need to deal with is these communication

14:57problems I have with Mike because it has gotten worse.

15:00And right now, Mike is getting the solid treatment.

15:02So I guess you can say I'm having communication issues now.

15:06Look, pop a label on my jeans, uh, but these one-on-ones

15:08rock them like I'm getting the real design

15:10and got it out the mud.

15:11You know, this is memories of my son.

15:13You know, this is memories of my son.

15:15You know, this is memories of my son.

15:17The last thing I need to deal with is these communication

15:19problems I have with Mike because it has gotten worse.

15:21And right now, Mike is getting the solid treatment.

15:23So I guess you can say I'm having communication issues now.

15:27Look.

15:28Pop a label on my jeans, uh, but these one-on-ones.

15:31Rock them like I'm getting real design and got it out the mud.

15:35What the hell wrong with you?

15:53When you was out of town, you didn't answer that phone.

15:57That's one thing.

16:00Communication is key with any type of relationship.

16:03Sometimes you don't act like you know her.

16:05You be moving like you my boyfriend, not my fiance.

16:09How?

16:09What move when?

16:10Oh, you talking about when I be going to do stuff?

16:12Yes.

16:13You're supposed to tell me that.

16:17I don't know what changed, but he used to tell me everything.

16:22And I think he's probably getting a little comfortable.

16:25And I'm like, baby, no, don't get comfortable.

16:28The way you got me is the way you need to keep me.

16:31It can be so easy, so simple.

16:33I mean, you can be so easy, too, if you be talking and don't walk off.

16:37Now, Michael, when I'm talking, you be walking off.

16:41So you really need to meet the Pearsons.

16:44They don't been through hell and back.

16:46So they're the right couple to talk to.

16:49Next week, Latisha is setting up an outing for Mike and I

16:53to help us with our communication problems.

16:56I feel like it's going to help.

16:57I mean, it's, it can't do any worse.

17:03Coming up on Bell Collector.

17:05Well, wait a minute now.

17:06Since all y'all up in my business, let's play a game.

17:09True or false?

17:10Oh, we can tell you that you all experienced infidelity

17:13in your marriage.

17:15They all up in my business.

17:17Want to know, you know, about Martin and Cedric.

17:20OK, I said, well, let's play a game.

17:21I want to know what's it.

17:27I want to take this underground like you've never seen before.

17:32Stand you around, make you want more.

17:34Show you something that you've never seen before.

17:36Never seen before.

17:37Never seen before.

17:38Never seen before.

17:39Never seen before.

17:40Oh, it is so pretty.

17:43How you doing?

17:44Girl, how you doing?

17:46Oh, my God, it's so pretty.

17:47You guys are so excited.

17:48Yes, yes, yes.

17:50Today, we are at my relaunch.

17:52We are so excited.

17:53Yes, yes, yes.

17:55Today, we are at my relaunch social of Women Brunch Mississippi,

18:00the platform for female entrepreneurs to network.

18:03So my brunches are more than an expensive hobby.

18:06My brunches allow women to really come together

18:09and collaborate and be successful.

18:11And we're here to celebrate and to announce my statewide tour.

18:18Oh, I'm sorry.

18:19I get so passionate talking about my brunches.

18:25I know that little flip, that little hair flip.

18:37Hi, yay.

18:38Hey.

18:39You got your ponytail to the side today.

18:41Girl, I'm doing my little genie in a bottle thing, girly.

18:44It's just one little hair.

18:58And then it happens to be gray.

19:00Do my neck back here.

19:01OK, I see you're going to find the band.

19:02Oh, everybody's going to find the band bra.

19:04Hi.

19:05Hi.

19:06How you doing?

19:07I am so excited to show up to support my girl,

19:10Latisha for her relaunch.

19:11And I hope Latrice shows up, because I just

19:15want to clear the air with her, because I was supposed

19:17to be the bar manager at Taste.

19:20And unfortunately, something's happened.

19:24All right.

19:24Hey, everybody.

19:26Thank you all for coming this evening.

19:29Hey.

19:30Good evening.

19:32I'm here at the relaunch social today

19:34to support my girl, Latisha.

19:36But when it comes to Amanda and Glenn DMing her,

19:39I'm still kind of conflicted.

19:41You know Glenn's saying my DM.

19:43Glenn!

19:44Finding out about the DMs has definitely made me uneasy,

19:48especially when it comes to me and Latisha's friendship.

19:50And quite frankly, I'm not exactly excited

19:53to see Selena either.

19:54We still have unresolved issues.

19:56She ghosted me on becoming a bar manager at Taste.

20:00This lady right here has been a trailblazer

20:04in the business community.

20:06We're happy to work and partner with her on expanding

20:09the brunch series.

20:10I'm going to turn it over to you, Latisha,

20:12to tell us about your vision.

20:13First, I just want to say thank you all so much for coming.

20:17Women Brunch Mississippi is a platform for female entrepreneurs

20:21throughout the state of Mississippi,

20:22where we provide economic development.

20:26And also, we promote entrepreneurship.

20:28So it's not just about brunching and looking cute

20:31in your Louboutins, but it's actually about making a change.

20:33It is important for me to give back to Mississippi

20:36with my brunches because my dream started here in Mississippi.

20:40Connecting women around the state who can actually come together

20:44and collaborate and build legacy.

20:46I want to inspire every girl that's in a community,

20:50a rural community around the state of Mississippi.

20:52I definitely want you guys to be empowered.

20:55And my goal is to create a platform for over 3,000 women

20:59in the state of Mississippi before the end of this year.

21:02So thank you all for coming.

21:03And let's work the room.

21:06Thank y'all for coming!

21:08Coming!

21:09Hi!

21:10It's very refreshing to feel and see the collective operating

21:14as a collective right now.

21:16Women are collaborating.

21:18The Brunch is a hub for entrepreneurs

21:20to get together, women, and really, really say,

21:23girl, you got that, you got that, you want to do that,

21:25let's collaborate.

21:27Hey!

21:28This is your girl.

21:29This is your girl.

21:30This is your girl.

21:31This is your girl.

21:32She looks like Marie.

21:34When she walked in on the side, she gives Marie.

21:36She gives Marie.

21:37She gives Marie.

21:38You cut my hair.

21:39I don't know how Monroe going to feel about that.

21:42I am so grateful right now in this moment

21:45that the Brunch is going great.

21:48Smiling faces.

21:50People are networking.

21:53Bitch, my feet hurt at this point.

21:56So look, I was so excited to meet my fellow Brunch Nista.

22:00All right, yes.

22:02I missed you last week.

22:03They said that you were at work.

22:05Yeah.

22:06Marie's birthday party.

22:08It's nice to meet you.

22:09So I was trying to figure out, like,

22:10who the hell is this lady?

22:12Baby, it's me.

22:13It's me.

22:14I have nothing bad to say about Kira, honey.

22:16Kira is very dramatic, very talkative.

22:19But I absolutely love her.

22:22Anything extra to me is always welcome.

22:25Listen, I heard about the event last week.

22:29So how did it go?

22:30It was a mess a whole little time.

22:32Come on, y'all.

22:33Let's open up.

22:34OK.

22:34Oh.

22:36You're looking good, honey.

22:37You're looking good.

22:38Oh, my girl.

22:39I know.

22:40Oh, my girl.

22:41Oh, my girl.

22:43Why are you like?

22:44This why you wanted to come in fashionably late?

22:46You were on a whole spaceship navigating.

22:49You got, look, you got on your space outfit now.

22:53Let me tell you something.

22:54Marie comes in late 8 AM.

22:58You will never see me doing that to one of my girlfriends.

23:00Never, ever.

23:02Baby, I can see the natural BBL in this.

23:04I got the natural BBL.

23:06I can see the natural BBL.

23:08Girl, she had it.

23:09This is cornbread thing.

23:11Get cornbread, y'all.

23:12I was literally just talking about you.

23:16What's going on?

23:17What's going on?

23:18I missed your birthday, so I wanted to know, like, what happened?

23:20Who missed you?

23:21I know.

23:21I know you don't have to tell me that.

23:22Look, Marie, they keep talking about BBL, honey.

23:25It's BBM.

23:26It was bad bitch Marie that night, honey.

23:29It's your birthday.

23:31She busy.

23:37Look, ladies, I'm a single woman.

23:39I'm a single lady.

23:40You single?

23:41Because I was confused.

23:42But wait a minute now.

23:43Since all y'all up in my business, let's play a game.

23:46True or false?

23:47True or false?

23:48Tell me if you all experience infidelity in your marriage.

23:52You know, the BBLs, they all up in my business.

23:55Want to know, you know, about Martin and Cedric and Marie.

23:58This and your this and your that?

24:00OK, I said, well, let's play a game.

24:01True or false?

24:02Have any of y'all ever experienced infidelity

24:04in your relationship or your marriage?

24:06I want to know what's T.

24:10Coming up on BELL Collective.

24:12And when I walked through the door,

24:13I didn't hear you with a little bug.

24:14I dropped in my ear.

24:15You were trying to shake the hell out of me.

24:17Let me make a little joke.

24:18Yes, it's giving everything that it's supposed to give.

24:21This not.

24:22It got to go.

24:23Well, I am working.

24:24Bye, bye.

24:25Bye, mama.

24:28How many of y'all experienced infidelity in your marriages?

24:33Ooh!

24:34These are all up in my teeth.

24:35We can't help but be in your teeth,

24:36because the teeth was right there, baby.

24:37It was a hot teeth.

24:38Marie, are you serious?

24:39All of your relationships have had infidelity,

24:40so why try to bring up another woman's situation?

24:43The question was true or false?

24:44Oh, man.

24:45I said false.

24:46We're boring.

24:47And where the hell did this come from?

24:48It's all this.

24:49I just want to know.

24:50I want to dibble and dabble in y'all this.

24:52I'm a single lady.

24:53Okay.

24:54That is something that I have a question with,

24:55because I have been so confused.

24:57The last time we all hung out as couples,

24:59Martin was your boyfriend.

25:00Yes.

25:01Martin was your boyfriend.

25:02Yes.

25:03What happened when Martin became a friend

25:04and Cedric became my man?

25:06When did that happen?

25:07So let me explain.

25:08Cedric is my ex-husband.

25:09You know, death, wrong, right?

25:10Can't you tell me that you have a friend?

25:11I'm a single lady.

25:12I'm a single lady.

25:13I'm a single lady.

25:14I'm sorry.

25:15I'm sorry.

25:16I'm sorry.

25:17I'm sorry.

25:18I'm sorry.

25:19I'm sorry.

25:20You're sorry.

25:21I'm sorry.

25:22I'm sorry.

25:23I'm sorry.

25:24I'm sorry.

25:25I'm sorry.

25:26I'm sorry.

25:27OK, it's my ex-husband.

25:30You know, death brought us back together.

25:32Unfortunately, he came back into the picture

25:36while I was, I guess, trying to figure out things

25:38between me and Martin.

25:39And I'm just trying to navigate.

25:43In my book, you know, everybody got somebody.

25:46And you deserve somebody.

25:47I'm working on my love life.

25:49I never portrayed to have my personal life in order.

25:52Even though I am a brilliant-ass businesswoman, I'm human.

25:57Well, let's have a conversation, y'all.

25:59Let's mingle some more.

26:01I got a fit.

26:02Me too.

26:03Bri, we got a fit.

26:05God damn, we are so bad.

26:07Oh, my god.

26:11What's going on, Bri?

26:13Nothing.

26:13This is what I'm trying to see what's going on.

26:15I have not heard from you.

26:16I have not seen your butt.

26:18Like, Selena was supposed to be the bar manager.

26:21It tastes.

26:22Listen, this is Selena.

26:24This is our bar manager.

26:26Yes.

26:27And when I had the grand opening, Selena was not there

26:31to help me at all.

26:33I actually want to have a conversation with Selena

26:34because y'all just felt like she left me out the drive.

26:37So it's just all sorts of things that's going

26:41through my head right now.

26:42I know I'm supposed to be working at Taze.

26:44But then I had my car accident.

26:46I wasn't able to work.

26:47So I had to recover and all that.

26:49And I'm just like, my friend seemed like she a little

26:51distant.

26:52I was in my feelings a little bit about you not working

26:54at the restaurant because I felt like it was an excuse.

26:56And yeah, I felt I did feel some type of way.

27:00I wish we would have had a conversation early on.

27:02Like, honestly, I should have called you and been like, hey,

27:04Selena, you know, I feel some type of way about you not working

27:06at Taze and you not being vocal and letting me know you just

27:09not showing up or whatever.

27:11OK, because my feelings was my, I've been in my feelings.

27:14I ain't going to lie.

27:15You know, after the accident, I lost my dog.

27:18And my dog that died, that was my son's dog.

27:21I'm like, that dog was there when my son was murdered.

27:25So I just felt like I lost another part of my son.

27:28It's like a hit after hit after hit after hit.

27:31I apologize for not letting you know.

27:35OK, so we good?

27:37Because I miss you too.

27:38I miss you, Brienne.

27:40I'm very appreciative that Latrice and I got the opportunity

27:44to connect, because I do value our friendship.

27:47We've been friends for over a decade.

27:49So I don't want her to think that I abandoned her.

27:55Let me talk to you.

27:56Come on.

27:57So big.

27:58So how's everything going with you?

28:00Girl, it's good.

28:01I've been doing all this back and forth to Jackson.

28:04I'm thinking about how I can expand my presence up here.

28:07Yeah, yeah, yeah.

28:08When I walked through the door, I didn't hear you.

28:11But a little bug got dropped in my ear.

28:12You were trying to shake the hell out of me

28:14when I walked in here, talking about I

28:15look like I came from space.

28:17No, it's a futuristic outfit.

28:19It's silver.

28:20You're looking good.

28:21You were on a whole spaceship navigating.

28:24You got on your space outfit now.

28:27OK, you were going on a journey.

28:29And I said you had your spaceship ready.

28:30But I mean, like, that's how I talk.

28:32Like, I love to make jokes and puns.

28:34OK.

28:35But I mean, girl, look in the mirror.

28:36You look fabulous.

28:37Listen, you're beautiful.

28:38But this drop stream ponytail, it got to go.

28:41But, like, I'm telling you a bad girl.

28:42This grandmamish?

28:43No, no, no, no, this is timeless classic.

28:46Who was that?

28:47What do you mean?

28:48You got to be hazed in, girl.

28:49You can't just come in here and be throwing shade

28:51everywhere like you an OG, baby.

28:53You got to take baby steps.

28:54You need to kind of take some steps back.

28:56Yes.

28:57It's giving everything that it's supposed to give.

29:00This not.

29:00That's giving grandma old school, old fashioned.

29:03It got to go.

29:04It's giving Sunday morning worship.

29:06It got to go.

29:06Bye-bye.

29:08Bye, mama.

29:09Paging Dr. Marie, please come back to Earth, honey,

29:12because you are clearly in a whole nother universe than us.

29:15Because you and the Martian hairstyle,

29:17it was time for y'all to fly away.

29:18Well, Latisha, this was amazing.

29:20And congratulations on everything that you're doing.

29:23OK.

29:24Y'all have amazing things going on, all of us here.

29:26You're right, Latisha.

29:27I would like to invite the Bells to something.

29:30What's happening?

29:30I'm doing an all white affair in memories of my son.

29:34I want to build like a safe space for people

29:36who is dealing with grief.

29:38They don't have anybody to turn to.

29:40I love that.

29:40So yes.

29:41I want to invite all of the ladies

29:44to my all white event in memories of my son, Quincy Johnson,

29:48in a week.

29:50Because losing a child is the worst feeling in the world.

29:54And it's something you would never get over.

29:56But I have to start somewhere.

29:59OK, so Carrie, you have a restaurant in Biloxi,

30:03Gulfport, in Alabama, and Mobile.

30:05Carrie is really that girl on the coast.

30:07You are that girl.

30:08And that's my point.

30:10That's why you got her.

30:11Carrie, tell me you can dress how you want to, baby.

30:13Thank you, thank you, thank you.

30:15Like, I don't want to look the same as everybody.

30:19We made it through Letitia's relaunched social

30:24without any drama.

30:26We survived.

30:27I am proud of the collective.

30:30I think we have arrived.

30:34Coming up on Bell Collective, when you ghost me,

30:39I feel like you ghost me and you stop communicating with me.

30:43Sorry!

30:44Saw.

30:46So, something happen in the meantime.

30:49With your heart.

30:50Saw.

31:21All my little children.

31:24Who is that?

31:25Who is that, EJ?

31:26I'm stopping by to visit my girls today, especially Skye.

31:30She has a baby on the way.

31:31And while I'm here, I might as well talk to them

31:34about the issues Mike and I are having.

31:36Keep pointing.

31:37Keep pointing.

31:38Keep pointing.

31:39Keep pointing.

31:40How did the doctor's office go?

31:41Let me see one.

31:42We still haven't started dilating.

31:44You and your nine months, but how many weeks are you?

31:4638 weeks.

31:47So we need to be going running.

31:49That's what they mean.

31:50I told her.

31:51Run.

31:52Bounce.

31:53Bounce.

31:54Because you didn't see it.

31:55Bounce.

31:56Bounce.

31:57Bounce.

31:58We got some more boys added to the family.

31:59It's a lot of girls.

32:00It's a lot of girls throughout the whole family.

32:03Boy, you all going to take a nap.

32:05Come on, baby.

32:06Seeing my daughters have children,

32:08it was actually something I prayed for.

32:11I do have health issues.

32:12And I'm just so grateful that I'm here to experience this.

32:16Like, who doesn't want to see their children start their own family?

32:21But let me update y'all.

32:22Me and Mike, we had a conversation.

32:24Ew.

32:25Ew.

32:26But yeah.

32:27So we were just talking about the problems before I walked down the aisle.

32:33OK.

32:34When it comes to Mike, what frustrates me the most is his communication skills.

32:39He gonna buy him another, what, box truck?

32:42Uh-huh.

32:43An 18-wheeler to get back on the road.

32:44Mm-hmm.

32:45OK.

32:46I found out, but he told me after the fact.

32:48Mm-hmm.

32:49Just like the boat.

32:50I'm in my feelings still a little bit, even though.

32:52We get it.

32:53Because it's just like, you ain't go and get no TV.

32:56Yes.

32:57You ain't gonna get a whole vehicle.

32:58A whole.

32:59And it's not a regular vehicle.

33:00It's an 18-wheeler.

33:02A big vehicle, OK?

33:04I grew up in a home.

33:06My grandmother was always talking.

33:08We always had communication.

33:11So with Michael, he would say a couple of words and expect me to understand.

33:16No, honey, I need you to talk to me.

33:19I'm trying to walk down the aisle.

33:21I'm trying to be his wife.

33:23When me and Mike met, you know, this was during the time when I lost your brother.

33:30And so in the back of my head, sometimes when we have, like, disagreements, I be thinking,

33:36did I make a mistake?

33:38I mean, I love this man.

33:40I can't see myself with nobody else.

33:42But then I'm like...

33:43You feel like y'all started too fast?

33:45I don't think we started too fast.

33:47It's just I was in a very vulnerable state of mind.

33:51And he just did all the right things.

33:54He said all the right things.

33:56Everything was perfect.

33:57In 2020, my son was murdered.

34:00And that took a toll on me.

34:02And I'm still not over it.

34:03And that's why I want us to start communicating more.

34:06It's not just him.

34:08Sometimes I get in my feelings and I don't want to talk.

34:11And I should, but I don't want to feel like I'm bothering him.

34:15When Quincy passed, like, I mean, you was grieving, but we were also grieving.

34:21And so, like, when it came to being there for you, it just gave you a different type of comfort where we couldn't.

34:27Yeah, we like Mike.

34:29He helps out a lot, and he doesn't have to.

34:31And then when it comes to y'all two, I just feel like y'all really match each other's, like, energy.

34:36I know y'all love him and Deb.

34:38I love Mike, too.

34:39We just got some issues we gotta work out.

34:42We love Mike, but it's not over your happiness.

34:44So we just want y'all both to do what's best for both of y'all.

34:48I mean, it would be wrong of you to get married and then y'all going into the marriage having problems.

34:54I just want to make sure when I get married this time, it's for the long haul.

34:58They'll do his part.

34:59That's what I want.

35:00After talking to my daughters, I don't really think I'm getting anywhere because they love Michael to pieces.

35:08But to me, I don't want to go into a marriage with all these problems.

35:11We have to get over this hump.

35:13If not, there's not gonna be a wedding.

35:28There you go.

35:29All right.

35:30Can I get you started with something to drink?

35:43Water with lemon.

35:44OK.

35:45I'll be right back.

35:47I have not really seen or talked to Martin.

35:50And after talking to Cedric and Essie about Martin, I need to know what's going on with him.

36:01Hey, Marie.

36:02Hi, Martin.

36:03How are you?

36:04How are you?

36:05How are you?

36:06You're looking good.

36:07Well, thank you.

36:08How are you?

36:09How are you?

36:10How are you?

36:11How are you?

36:12Good.

36:13How are you doing?

36:14I'm well.

36:15What about you?

36:16Yeah.

36:17I'm tired, but happy.

36:18Yeah, what about you.

36:19Yeah.

36:20Yeah.

36:21You want an old-fashioned?

36:22Oh, not today.

36:23Not today?

36:24No, I think a Diet Coke is what I need today.

36:27What you need today.

36:28I'm glad you can come to my party.

36:29So how was it being at the party with my ex?

36:34Well, I just enjoyed myself.

36:35Well, I'm glad you had a great day.

36:37I'm glad you had a great day.

36:38How are you doing?

36:39How are you doing?

36:40How are you doing?

36:41How are you doing?

36:42How are you doing?

36:43How are you doing?

36:44How are you doing?

36:45How are you doing?

36:46I had a great time.

36:47Oh, yeah.

36:48That was good.

36:49Yeah.

36:50That was good.

36:51There you go, sir.

36:53What are we doing, Germany?

36:54Oh.

36:55Post.

36:56Post.

36:57Post.

36:58Yeah, so, Germany, did you enjoy yourself?

37:02Yeah, yeah.

37:03I went with the kids to the mountains for skiing.

37:05I love to see that, because my dad has always been in my life, so I can't even imagine having

37:12somebody in my life who don't, you know, show up for their children.

37:15Yes.

37:17One of the main reasons why I fell for Martin is his love for his children, and that is

37:24what won me over with him.

37:26I love a family man.

37:28After you came back from Germany, when I picked you up from the airport, we hung out that

37:33day, that next day, and then after that, I didn't hear from you for, like, three weeks.

37:38I didn't know if you had gone back, or if you were still here, or what happened.

37:49When I came back, it was like, I was working a lot.

37:52Okay, if I can just be honest, I just felt like the place we were in, we were hanging out,

37:57we were having a great time, new communication.

37:59So it went from that to nothing.

38:03I just felt kind of abandoned, or maybe, I don't know, maybe disrespected.

38:10So it did hurt my feelings, you know?

38:13Oh.

38:14I'm sorry.

38:15That was really not my intention.

38:16That's okay, but I just wanted to let you know that.

38:17Yeah, like, I don't want to...

38:20When you ghost me, I feel like you ghost me and you stopped communicating with me.

38:27It was like my daughter's father, he just somehow just started coming back around,

38:37checking on me, you know, just being nice, and just pretty much just, like, being there.

38:43So...

38:44So something happened in the meantime.

38:47Which means something happened?

38:49With your heart.

38:51Well...

38:55I just feel like I can't see you anymore.

38:59Ah, Marie.

39:01I didn't expect this.

39:02I know, I know, I know.

39:08It's emotional for me because, you know, I really like you.

39:14But then, you know, I have...

39:18My daughter's father, you know, like...

39:21You know, I care about him, I have love for him.

39:24Mm-hmm.

39:25You know, I love him.

39:26I do believe in being transparent and honest and true to myself, for one.

39:32And...

39:34I don't wanna...

39:35I won't lie to you.

39:36So...

39:39Yeah, I'm...

39:41I'm...

39:42I understand your situation.

39:43I knew that the breakup would be tough on me.

39:48I'm so sorry.

39:50But Martin seems to be handling it better than I anticipated.

39:54Not everyone is an emotional type of person, you know?

39:57And that's okay.

39:58So he's handling it well.

40:00I am so sorry.

40:02I am sad to end things with Martin.

40:07But I do want the best for him.

40:10And I can now focus 100% on Cedric and moving forward.

40:18So who's paying?

40:20I would do.

40:21I would do.

40:23Okay.

40:24Yeah.

40:26All right.

40:27See you.

40:28What's...

40:34Next on Bell Collective.

40:36It's now going on five years since my son's life was taken.

40:41I lost my second brother.

40:43It was like I never woke up from that nightmare.

40:46I talked to him that night.

40:51So when you leave, it upsets me when I don't know where you're at.

40:55In the traditional father marriage, people are used to the little wife who dotes.

41:00I'm not that doting.

41:01I know you got a lot on your plate.

41:03But I think I expect just a little bit more effort.

41:05But it's like it's only so much time in a day.

41:07I am throwing a pool party.

41:09Oh!

41:10Have you ever been attracted to someone in the group?

41:13Glenn.

41:14Yeah.

41:15I'm attracted to my wife.

41:16That's bull .

41:17I seen a DM.

41:18The man kept it.

41:19What you mean?

41:20I saw the DM.

41:21You know who the I am?

41:22You know who the I am?

41:23I like this.

41:24I like this.
