00:01Previously on The Single Life,
00:03we have so much in common.
00:05We do, yeah.
00:06We converse very well.
00:07Yeah, we do.
00:07And it's been like that from the beginning, too.
00:10Wayne is so cute.
00:11This legit might be my person.
00:13We got to do this more often.
00:15I know, definitely.
00:16But do I really want to invest my time and money
00:19to go over to another country to have my heart broken again?
00:25We are in Hollywood.
00:27Oh my god, look who's here.
00:29Yeah.
00:30I can't wait to spend time with Natalie again.
00:32And I'm going to meet her daughter, Bella.
00:34I'm surprised I'm meeting you today.
00:36I didn't expect that.
00:37Well, I'm surprised you're even here, to be honest.
00:40Yeah.
00:40I know how close Natalie and Bella are.
00:43And if there's going to be any chance
00:45for our relationship to work, I'm
00:47going to have to win Bella over.
00:51So first of all, Cole wants to apologize.
00:54Maybe if you two were together alone for a few days,
00:58you could work this out.
01:00I'm not going to be one of his options in his love triangle.
01:03It's like you had me, and you lost me.
01:07I feel a little bad for trashing Colt to his mom,
01:10but I need to be honest with her.
01:11There's no world where I'd get back with Colt.
01:14I'm done.
01:16Like...
01:20Do you mind if I grab a dance with my girl?
01:21Are you serious?
01:22You said that you don't want to dance.
01:24If this is how he's acting in the middle of a freaking dance class,
01:28we might have even bigger problems than I originally thought.
01:31I'm just, like, really done with this .
01:47Good morning, beautiful.
01:49Good morning.
01:50How are you feeling this morning?
01:52I'm feeling good.
01:53I'm feeling good, too.
01:55That was one wild, crazy night.
02:06That was pure madness.
02:08How'd you like your lap dance?
02:10Ah, the lap dance was amazing.
02:12Good, I'm glad.
02:14Last night, Natalie took me to a strip club in LA,
02:17and we had an amazing, terrific time.
02:20Both of us were, like, hot and sweaty by the time it was done,
02:24and we were horny and excited to, like, have some real fun.
02:28I unleashed the beast last night.
02:31You were a wild and crazy man.
02:33The sex was so much better than the first time.
02:36Seeing this freaky side of Natalie took all my anxiety away.
02:41I had no problem throwing my hat off and getting down.
02:45So, yeah.
02:48So, what are we going to do today?
02:51Plan for the day is to meet my family.
02:53Do you know where we're going or anything?
02:55It's a surprise.
02:56But we need to get going because the reservation's coming up soon.
02:58OK.
02:59Let's hit the road.
03:01Today, Gino and I are meeting up with my daughter, Bella,
03:04and my brother, Nick.
03:06Do we have a car picking this up?
03:07We're walking.
03:09Are we walking?
03:09We're walking.
03:10Oh, my goodness gracious.
03:12Bella is skeptical about Gino because what's happened in the past.
03:16But I'm hoping everybody can have fun,
03:19just let their guard down.
03:20Because my feelings for Gino are only getting stronger.
03:24And I really need for everybody in my family,
03:27especially Bella, to be on board.
03:29Nick.
03:31Nick.
03:32Oh, hi.
03:33How are you doing?
03:34Hey.
03:35How are you?
03:35I'm doing good.
03:37Oh, nice to meet you.
03:38How's it going?
03:38This is Gino.
03:39How are you doing? Nice meeting you, finally.
03:41Nice meeting you, too.
03:42This is my twin brother.
03:43Twin brother.
03:44Yeah.
03:44Yeah.
03:45She's a pretty twin.
03:46Yeah.
03:48No, I think you're the pretty twin.
03:50I can see the resemblance.
03:52The first time Nally dating Gino, everything went to crap.
03:56Everything was a nightmare.
03:58She was calling me, crying all the time.
04:00And I mean, he broke her heart.
04:02So when Nally told me she was dating Gino again,
04:05I thought she was crazy.
04:06This is going to be a whole huge drama mess,
04:09like every other relationship she's been through.
04:12We're going to see some entertainment.
04:14Have you ever seen a drag show before?
04:16Drag show?
04:17I haven't.
04:17I've heard of them, but I've never seen one.
04:19You're in for a treat.
04:20Oh, yeah.
04:21Is Bella there already?
04:22Have you talked to her?
04:23I haven't seen Isabella since yesterday.
04:25You haven't talked to her?
04:26Not since yesterday.
04:29I'm just going to text her real quick.
04:34Yesterday, when Bella dropped her mom off at the hotel,
04:37she was really cold to me and had an attitude.
04:41I can't help but wonder if the reason is because of me.
04:45OK.
04:47I texted.
04:48All right, so we're good to go?
04:50Yeah, let's go.
04:51We're going to miss the show.
04:52OK.
04:53Stop worrying.
04:54I'm not.
04:54Yeah, don't worry about anything.
04:56It's not good for that pretty face.
04:57Stop.
05:09How's everybody doing today?
05:11Woo!
05:13Are you all ready to get started?
05:15Yeah!
05:16Yeah!
05:17Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the stage, Penny Ridge Rapper!
05:25I have never been to a drag queen show before.
05:29Being here in person is freaking amazing.
05:39And they're putting their in my face.
05:48This is what I love about Natalie.
05:50She brings me out of my shell or even out of my comfort zone.
05:55She can do that to me.
06:04Yeah!
06:05We all had a good time with us today?
06:07Yeah!
06:08Yeah!
06:09Yeah!
06:09Yeah!
06:10Yeah!
06:11Yeah!
06:14After this show, it really clears out, doesn't it?
06:17Yeah.
06:17Man, I wish Bella was here.
06:19She's not responding to me.
06:21Really?
06:22That's weird.
06:24She's not a company.
06:26She texted you?
06:27Yeah.
06:31Bella arranged the whole thing.
06:33To come here.
06:34And at the last minute, something just went off.
06:36She just doesn't like Gino.
06:38She doesn't trust him.
06:40All she wants to make sure is her mom is happy.
06:42And she doesn't think Gino is that person.
06:46I'm sad myself because I wanted to get to know her a little bit.
06:49It seems like she doesn't want to meet you.
06:51You think so?
06:53She's told me she does not like him.
06:55And that's the reason why she did not come.
06:57I mean, you're still married.
06:58Your ex attacks Natalie.
07:00That's ridiculous.
07:02We came to where she lives so that she could see we've gone past it.
07:07But she hasn't gone past it.
07:08That's the problem.
07:10We don't have to deal with Jasmine anymore.
07:12So take Jasmine out of the equation and everything has been progressing really good.
07:17Like, we are having fun together.
07:18So have you filed for divorce?
07:22Um...
07:28Bella has a lot of anger towards me.
07:31And Nick, he's kind of questioning if I'm the right person for her as well.
07:37So everything I did to rebuild my relationship with Natalie is falling apart.
07:43I mean, I don't blame Isabella.
07:45You're still married to another woman.
07:47And she doesn't want to see her mother hurt.
07:50I get it.
07:51She wants to look out for me.
07:52And I love her and I appreciate that.
07:55But I still would like her to give him a chance.
07:58You're just going to have to show her it's not like the other relationships that you had in the past.
08:05She comes first.
08:07She comes first.
08:09Bella has never seen me happy with a man in my entire life.
08:13They are toxic.
08:14They're liars.
08:15They're not honest.
08:17I had an ex that was a serial cheater and I knew it.
08:22So when it comes to Gino, Bella has her guard up.
08:25I think she is very protective and very leery of his intentions.
08:31You're going to have to win her over.
08:34She's the hard one to win over.
08:35Yeah.
08:36And don't piss her off.
08:48Six, seven, walk her through.
08:50We go one, two, we go forward, tap.
08:54What the ?
08:55I just don't freaking get it.
09:02I'm so happy.
09:05I'm so happy.
09:06I'm so happy.
09:07I'm so happy.
09:11I'm so happy.
09:11I asked you if you want to dance and you said no.
09:13So then I told you I'm going to dance with somebody else and I did.
09:16And then you interrupted me in the middle of the dance.
09:18I felt the point though.
09:19I wanted you to have fun and I wanted you to come into my world.
09:22I was having fun.
09:22I was.
09:23I enjoyed the dancing.
09:24I was having fun.
09:25So what's the problem then?
09:26I mean, we just talked about coming to his class, learning how to dance.
09:32And social was out of nowhere.
09:34And all of a sudden we talk about that.
09:36And then you storm off, find some Vin Diesel guy or actually a guy who looks just like your ex.
09:40And you're just having a good time.
09:42Are you kidding me?
09:43So here's the thing.
09:44You're going to Ibiza in a couple of weeks.
09:46There's going to be many socials in Ibiza too.
09:48And there's going to be many socials in Croatia as well.
09:50So you think I'm going to go cheat on you with a guy in Ibiza?
09:53What I'm trying to say is if you're going to dance with random guys, what's going to happen?
09:57And they want to have a good time.
10:00They want to have a good time.
10:01So because they want to have a good time, I need to be punished.
10:04And I'm going to be.
10:05Punished?
10:05And I'm going to be.
10:06Yeah.
10:06So you're trying to accuse me of something that I haven't even done yet.
10:09So you have freedom of reigns to do whatever you want and dance with whatever you want.
10:11I just don't understand, Tony.
10:13Because it's like a vacation.
10:14Listen.
10:14I danced with a guy after a dance class after you said that you don't want to dance.
10:17And now you're accusing me of dancing with random guys in Ibiza and potentially cheating on you.
10:22You just said you wouldn't.
10:23Well, like you're literally putting words in my mouth.
10:26I never said that.
10:27I'm putting words in your mouth.
10:31He knew I was a dancer when we started dating.
10:34He knew I was a dancer when we were friends.
10:37I feel like at this point in our relationship, he should trust me.
10:40He should know who I am.
10:42He should know what I stand for.
10:43He should know that I would not do anything to disrespect him or put our relationship in jeopardy.
10:49Tony is projecting his own insecurity on me.
10:53And I'm really hurt by that.
10:54I don't think I deserve it.
10:57You don't see a problem here at all.
10:59You're not even looking at it from my perspective at all.
11:01What is the freaking problem?
11:02I think the problem is actually us.
11:04Because you look at it as, hey, this is my everyday life.
11:07This is what I've been doing for years.
11:08This is my passion.
11:09I see it as this is not appropriate for a new relationship.
11:12That's the problem.
11:13So you're stopping me from being who I am because I'm in a relationship with you.
11:17No, I think there's compromise.
11:18There's compromise.
11:19We're not having it.
11:20We're not having compromise.
11:21This is unbelievable, Tony.
11:22No, it's not.
11:23It's compromise.
11:25You ruined everything.
11:26So I hope you're happy.
11:28I need to go find my freaking phone.
11:30I'm taking an Uber home and this is it.
11:31I'm done with this .
11:36She's been single for a very long time.
11:38She still does things her own way.
11:40I'm concerned that sometimes Vanya may not look at the big picture of when you're in a relationship, it's about
11:45compromise.
11:46And to me, dance is very sensual.
11:48Dance has a lot of feelings attached.
11:51And, you know, it's very easy to fall in love with your dance partner.
11:54You just gonna storm off again?
11:56No, I just, I'm done, Tony.
11:57I'm calling an Uber and I'm going home.
11:59I brought up concerns about her traveling and dancing with other guys in other clubs.
12:03And she completely said, hey, that's my prerogative is to have fun.
12:07Hey, by the way, Tony, just trust me when I can't even trust her when I'm watching her and with
12:11her.
12:12So that's it.
12:13That's it.
12:14She's gonna storm out again.
12:15Yeah.
12:16Really?
12:17Yeah, I...
12:17There's no compromise.
12:18There's no resolution to anything now, is there?
12:20What compromise is there?
12:21Really?
12:22You're accusing me of being somebody who has nefarious intentions in mind.
12:26And I don't.
12:26She said you can do whatever you want.
12:27You said I can have fun, I can dance with whoever, and that's...
12:30What's...
12:31What do you want me to do?
12:32Then just stay in my hotel room the whole time I'm there?
12:35Maybe you should enjoy.
12:36Enjoying Visa.
12:37You know.
12:38We'll see how it works out when you get back then.
12:42What?
12:42Is...
12:42What?
12:43Now you're threatening me.
12:44What?
12:48You obviously don't trust me and I'm going home.
13:07I'm not going to be told what I can and cannot do.
13:18Will you go watch me?
13:22I'm capable of having a dance with someone and not have sex with them.
13:26I mean, what else do you think is going to happen here?
13:29This is really making me worried about our relationship going forward
13:33because if this is how Tony is acting when we're together,
13:37I cannot even imagine what he's going to be like once we're apart for two weeks.
13:41It's really scaring me.
14:16Now, what do we need these for?
14:18What do you want? Avocado?
14:19We're on a diet.
14:21Okay. Put them off.
14:22I'm going to put them back.
14:23We're on a diet.
14:25Yeah.
14:37I'm going to get a cabbage.
14:39I'm going to make some cabbage rolls.
14:42So I talked to Colt.
14:43Oh, my gosh.
14:45Where is he at?
14:46He's in Brazil.
14:47He went to Brazil?
14:48Yeah, to see the other woman, yeah.
14:52For the last month, I haven't been in touch with Colt because I needed a break from that dumpster fire
14:57of a relationship.
14:59But he called me out of the blue this morning from Brazil.
15:03Did he go back to Canada when Gabby and Tony were there?
15:06No, I guess he went straight from Florida to Brazil.
15:09Oh, my gosh.
15:11Yeah.
15:11Seriously?
15:12Yeah.
15:12I thought Colt went to Canada to live with his mom.
15:16I found out the whole time he's been in Brazil with Diana, the woman he's been sending videos to.
15:23Okay.
15:24They're saying the ligaments in his knee need to be replaced so he has to have another surgery.
15:29But he said he's found a doctor here that will accept the insurance and stuff.
15:34Here?
15:34Yeah, in Orlando, so I guess he's coming back.
15:37He's not staying with us.
15:38He's not staying at our place.
15:39No.
15:40No.
15:40Oh, okay.
15:42Oh, my gosh.
15:43One thing we've learned from this experience is there's no stranger that's going to stay at our house again, ever.
15:50It's not going to happen.
15:51It's not going to happen.
15:53Is he still in the wheelchair or is he?
15:55Yeah, well, I guess the doorways are small there, so he's been using crutches because the wheelchair and walker are
16:00too big.
16:00How's he going to get around?
16:02Yeah.
16:02He can't drive.
16:03No, I said I'd go pick him up and, like, help him get situated in the hotel.
16:08Picking up Colt from the airport is going to be torture.
16:12You know, we had a really strong connection.
16:14There's still some type of bond, which is maybe really dumb, but I feel responsible for him.
16:21Does he want to try to get back with you?
16:23I don't know what he wants.
16:25Don't let it happen.
16:29He's not going to be faithful.
16:31Yeah.
16:32Yeah.
16:32No, I think he's going to lie and keep lying and lying and lying.
16:35Right, right.
16:35I don't trust him, so it's like, how can I be with somebody I don't trust?
16:39When you keep lying about stuff, you're not sincere.
16:45Yeah.
16:46I don't see any sincerity at all to this.
16:48No respect.
16:50I mean...
16:51Leave our daughter alone.
16:52I mean...
16:53Bottom line.
16:55Well, if it was me, I would be over with it, but it's you.
17:02I think you're strong enough, but when he casts that fishing line and reels you back in, and you know
17:08he's going to try.
17:11Don't revolve your life around him.
17:13No, no.
17:14Because he could care less about you.
17:16I know.
17:16He's just using you once again.
17:18I feel he can't use me because I'm offering help.
17:21I'm offering to do this for him.
17:22I want to do this for him.
17:24So it's like, he's not using me.
17:25It's like, he's not playing me.
17:26He's playing himself.
17:28But then how far are you going to take this?
17:30I just want to get him from the airport to the hotel.
17:33Right.
17:34Okay.
17:35Set boundaries.
17:35Like, all the crying and stuff I've been doing, I think it's just, like, feeling sorry for him.
17:40Like, he might be permanently disabled, so I cry more about his leg than about him dating other women.
17:47I know my parents are worried about Colt breaking my heart again.
17:51They see that he still affects me.
17:54And, like, the truth is, I don't know what I'm going to feel when I see him.
17:59We had such a deep, intense connection, and you can't just turn that off.
18:05I feel like Colt has some type of crazy power over me, and I don't really trust myself with him.
18:10Life is way too short to be putting up with that.
18:14Fill your life with happy things.
18:16Yes, I will.
18:17You want the donuts?
18:19No.
18:21No, I think I need the wine.
18:23The wine.
18:25Oh.
18:32Yay, stockings.
18:33Here, you can hang your own stocking up, son.
18:37All right, boom.
18:41Okay, there we go.
18:42Beautiful.
18:42Look at that.
18:43Look at that.
18:44I have something here.
18:45You already have stuff in your stocking.
18:47Is it candy?
18:47Oh, yeah.
18:49I got to get one.
18:50Okay.
18:52God.
18:53It's been in there since last year.
18:56I've been naughty, I've been nice.
18:59Santa's daddy brings me everything I like.
19:01Hello.
19:01Milk and cookies, want a bite?
19:03Want a bite?
19:04Give me little, I want a shingle, fill a knife.
19:07Here we go.
19:09Grand Illumina.
19:10Hey!
19:11Whoa!
19:12It actually looks pretty good.
19:13Do you remember this monkey?
19:14Grandma bought this for you, so I'll let you hang that.
19:17Just hang it back near her picture.
19:19Put it.
19:20Yeah, it's cute, huh?
19:22Christmas is in a few weeks, and I'm really, really excited because it's my favorite holiday.
19:27Everything's all sparkly, everybody's just nice, and it brings back so many happy memories
19:31of my mom and my sister and previous holidays.
19:34When I do stuff like this, it reminds me of grandma because this was like our thing, and
19:38my grandma, it was like our thing was to like decorate, you know?
19:41So it's going to be our thing now?
19:42I think so, and I think we should include Larry in this as well, because he doesn't
19:46know any of our stuff.
19:46He doesn't know anything.
19:47You want to call him?
19:48Yeah.
19:50Christmas is all about family, and this Christmas is even more special because my family just
19:55got bigger.
19:57My relationship with my son that I placed for adoption is just getting better and better.
20:02We video chat all the time, and it's really become a special part of my life.
20:07Hey!
20:09What's up, y'all?
20:10What's up?
20:11How are you?
20:12I'm doing good, man.
20:13It looks like y'all in the Christmas spirit.
20:15Yeah.
20:16I'm really excited to talk to him today and show him my Christmas decorations, but I also
20:20have some news to share with both him and Jamal.
20:23So we thought we would call you and get you in the Christmas spirit with us.
20:27Yeah, for sure.
20:28So Jamal's going to carry you around.
20:30Let's go for a tour.
20:31All right.
20:32Look.
20:32So this is my little tree.
20:34I like bling.
20:35You know I'm all about the glitter.
20:36I love the sequins and stuff.
20:37So this is, instead of doing a star, I do a top hat.
20:40Isn't it cute?
20:41Isn't it cute?
20:42Yeah.
20:42I don't know about that.
20:44It's so cute.
20:45And then I do stockings.
20:48Am I going to get a stocking?
20:50Yes, you're going to get a stocking.
20:52Of course you are.
20:53There was never a holiday, a birthday, or any other day in 35 years that I did not think
21:01about Larry or my daughter.
21:03I always wondered, like, what kind of life they had, how they celebrated their birthdays,
21:09how they celebrated their holidays.
21:11How's my hair?
21:13It's a little flat.
21:16I'm so grateful to Larry that he gave me the chance to make up for lost time.
21:22I'm really glad that you can enjoy some of this with us.
21:25Yeah, for sure.
21:26So, yeah.
21:27And I'm glad that we have communication, especially now.
21:29I think the communication's a lot better now that I've been.
21:32I agree.
21:33I'm free.
21:33So speaking of that, I told you guys about the guy that I've been talking to in England,
21:40and I'm going.
21:41He invited me to come, so I'm going to go and meet him.
21:44I mean, everybody deserves a chance at love, so I don't see why you wouldn't take it.
21:50Just don't get your hopes up.
21:51No.
21:52You know what I'm saying?
21:52A little bit.
21:53Just a little bit of hope.
21:55No.
21:55Let's just stay neutral.
21:56I mean, just go over there with an open mind.
21:58Yeah.
21:59I like him, but I'm not doing what I did with Usman.
22:02It's a totally different thing.
22:04I've learned from my mistakes.
22:07Don't look so skeptical.
22:09No, I am.
22:10I can't help but naturally be concerned when you take these trips for men that you haven't met.
22:15You're going to fly by yourself.
22:16You're going to be there by yourself.
22:18I remember even when you go to Nigeria by yourself, you would call me and be like,
22:22I wish you were here.
22:23Why don't you go with me?
22:24What are you doing?
22:25No.
22:26Why?
22:26Is that not too much?
22:28Why don't you go?
22:28You don't have to meet him like the first day, but maybe you should go with me.
22:32Go, Jamal.
22:33You should go?
22:34Yeah, you should go.
22:35You should definitely go.
22:36I do wish I would have went to Nigeria sooner.
22:38Me too.
22:39Because maybe I could have helped in that one faster.
22:42The men you've met, they're so nice to you in the beginning and they trap you because you get stuck
22:47and you fall fast.
22:48Yeah.
22:49So luckily when I'm there, maybe I'll be able to talk to her and be like, just remember to not
22:53give too much in the beginning.
22:55Yeah.
22:55Because you do that all the time.
22:56Yeah, for sure.
22:56For sure.
22:57Yeah.
22:58In the past, once my mom really starts to like a guy, she starts believing whatever they say.
23:04So I really do hope Wayne is this nice guy that he's been telling her that he is, because my
23:10mom's heart cannot take much more.
23:12I feel like now everybody's in place.
23:14I'm working on myself.
23:15It's time for me to go and find love.
23:18Well, I think you've had a lot off your shoulders.
23:20Yeah.
23:21It's helped.
23:22Like telling you about your sister and everything.
23:24Telling me about him and telling him about her.
23:27Yeah.
23:27Speaking of sister, I reached out to the adoption agency like we all agreed upon to try to find her.
23:34Well, they sent me a letter.
23:35Her adopted mom had wrote me a letter.
23:38So I have the letter, it's like 10 pages long, and I was waiting for an opportunity to just kind
23:43of bring it out.
23:44I want to see it.
23:45All right.
23:46When the adoption agency told me they had a letter about my daughter from when she was six years old,
23:52I was stunned.
23:53This was dated November 26, 98.
23:59Okay.
23:59It says, to the birth mother of our beloved daughter, R.
24:04She came home with us in January of 93.
24:07She was then and has continued to this day to be a healthy and happy child.
24:14I can't read this.
24:15I can't read this.
24:16I want something.
24:17This is crazy.
24:35I haven't seen Tony since our dance class a few nights ago, and obviously things ended on a really bad
24:42note.
24:42I'm really nervous.
24:44It's not an easy thing to, like, have that huge blow up and then off I go for half a
24:50month.
25:07Tony is coming over to take me to the airport, and it's awful because I'm leaving for a two and
25:13a half week vacation to Europe.
25:15This is not how I wanted to leave things between us.
25:21Hi.
25:28Tony.
25:29I, uh, I made us a little snack, so have a seat.
25:32I'll go grab it.
25:35I haven't seen Tony and his reaction during the dance class.
25:39It has me worried that this kind of jealousy and control is only going to get amplified while I'm gone.
25:46Then it could be the end of us.
25:52So how are you feeling?
25:55I mean, I know you're leaving soon, so I thought we at least talk about, you know, what's going on,
26:03and I just don't want this tension anymore.
26:08So what's, what's, what's on your mind?
26:11I do trust you, but the words escalated, the emotions escalated, and all of a sudden you left, and I'm
26:17like, wow, are we really just throwing it away?
26:22Yeah, I, I agree that that wasn't the best thing to do.
26:26I shouldn't have done what I did, like, stormed out, but I, you know, I was, I was very upset.
26:34But at the end of the day, you, you mean the world to me, and I want to make sure
26:39that when I'm away, that you feel comfortable, that you're not, you know, thinking, what am I doing?
26:44What's going on?
26:45Am I putting our relationship in jeopardy?
26:47Because I would never do anything like that.
26:54I mean, that means a lot to me.
26:56I'm not trying to say, hey, listen, it's either you dance or it's me.
26:59I just really want to make sure that we're on the same page going forward.
27:03And, you know, this upcoming trip, I just don't want it to be about us not talking, a lack of
27:09communication, or if there's tension, I just don't want it to just linger.
27:12I agree.
27:14We're not going to go sleep angry.
27:16We're not going to let the day end with us not having a resolution.
27:21Okay.
27:21I like that.
27:23Okay, I'm just going to put this in the kitchen, and then we can skedaddle.
27:29We both took responsibility for what we did wrong and feeling a little bit more secure.
27:34Vanya, I'm going to help grab your luggage, okay?
27:37Okay, thank you.
27:37All right.
27:39But at the same time, our relationship is just starting to take the next step.
27:43We even started saying I love you to each other.
27:45And now I'm leaving immediately for two and a half weeks.
27:49I mean, this gives us no time together to hug and kiss and just be good.
27:56It sucks.
28:09Baby, I'm going to miss you so much.
28:12Oh, my God.
28:13I can't believe we're here already.
28:17Oh, my God.
28:19I'm going to try as much as possible.
28:21Just keep in touch.
28:22Right?
28:24All right.
28:24Welcome, baby.
28:27Welcome, baby.
28:28Welcome, baby.
28:32Next trip is going to be a together trip.
28:34Absolutely.
28:35Okay.
28:36Okay.
28:36I miss you already.
28:37I miss you too, baby.
28:39All right.
28:40Bye.
28:41Bye, man.
28:42Bye.
28:42Bye.
28:42Bye.
28:43Bye.
28:44Bye.
28:44Bye, man.
28:44I feel like our relationship is so new that there is worry.
28:49The last few weeks, we've had a great foundation.
28:52And I really hope this trip is not going to test it to the point where she's going to realize
28:56that the single life is better for her.
28:57I would be in shambles if I lost Fanyo.
29:00It would break me apart.
29:03There are so many variables that could go wrong on this trip.
29:07And I hope we can get through it.
29:09But I would be lying if I said I wasn't concerned.
29:13Because if he has another meltdown while I'm away, I don't think our relationship can survive.
29:18There's blood in the water.
29:35To the birth mother of our beloved daughter, R.
29:42I can't read this.
29:44This is crazy.
29:55This letter was not delivered to me almost 30 years ago because I moved around a lot.
29:59I was in the military, so I just never received it.
30:03It's very emotional for me because it's like me getting to know her.
30:07It means so much to get a glimpse into what her life was like growing up.
30:12I got it.
30:15Her developmental skills progressed normally except in one area where she proved exceptionally gifted.
30:22She's very verbal.
30:23I guess she talks like her mama, right?
30:26R's vocabulary is tremendous.
30:28Her thoughts and desires at a level beyond her six years.
30:32We hope to keep her in private school as long as we can afford it.
30:36R's favorite food is pasta, pasta, pasta.
30:39That's her Italian side.
30:40She is also a great vegetable eater.
30:42We have a large vegetable garden.
30:44She loves to go out and pick vegetables for dinner.
30:47She had a pretty nice life.
30:49Wait a minute.
30:51I think reading this letter and finding out these things about her, like now we know her name starts with
30:56an R.
30:57We know she had a vegetable garden.
30:59We know she went to private school.
31:05Sorry.
31:09And it's like a bittersweet feeling, right?
31:11Like, it makes her more real to me.
31:14And it just makes me so happy to know that she was raised so well.
31:20We are indeed thankful for having her in our lives and love her very much.
31:24With best wishes to you and yours.
31:28That's a lot, man.
31:28It's really intense.
31:31I'm really glad that she's had such a good life.
31:33Like, that's why I did what I did, you know?
31:36Because I know I couldn't provide that for you or her.
31:39Like, I can't say, like, I regret what I've done.
31:41I can't say that now.
31:42I can say that the way I handled it was up.
31:45But I can't, like, I can't, like, feel bad for what I did.
31:49You know?
31:51Yeah, and that's why I keep trying to tell you since, you know, day one.
31:54So I'm glad you finally kind of, you know, seeing it for yourself, too.
31:59Yeah.
32:01The decision to place my children up for adoption was the most heartbreaking decisions I've ever had to make in
32:07my whole life.
32:11Now, 34 years later, I can honestly say I'm at peace.
32:15I feel like I did what was best for my children.
32:21And really, at the end of the day, that's all that matters to me.
32:25All we can do now is just wait.
32:28Yeah.
32:29We'll see what happens.
32:31I do have a feeling we're going to find her.
32:33I hope so.
32:34Like, I'm very positive about that.
32:36I hope so.
32:41I'm gonna try calling her.
32:44Hello?
32:44Hi, Bella.
32:45I just wanted to know why you didn't show up today.
32:49I can't stand by and watch you embarrass yourself by associating, you know, with such a troll like Gino.
32:55Whoa.
32:56I care about Gino, but this is a lot bigger than my daughter not wanting to meet a guy that
33:01I'm dating.
33:13Oh, you want to sit down?
33:18Yeah.
33:18For a moment?
33:20Enjoy this beautiful fire pit.
33:24Oh, they got blankets.
33:26This is kind of like camping or something.
33:28I don't know.
33:29We just don't have a tent.
33:30Like this?
33:31Take one step for today.
33:34Take two steps for tomorrow.
33:37Just stand back, let the bow for the lead.
33:42That was rough.
33:44Yeah.
33:45I'm a little bit, I don't know, concerned now because Nick is saying that she doesn't like me.
33:53Well, she doesn't know you.
33:57One of the big reasons that I came to L.A. was to get to know Natalie's daughter, Bella.
34:02But when it was time to hang out, she never showed.
34:08Apparently, Bella's mad at me because Jasmine attacked Natalie last year.
34:14You definitely want to have approval of the family members or, you know, the chances of this relationship working is
34:21not very good.
34:23But I'm going to try calling her.
34:30Hello?
34:31Hi, Bella?
34:33Hi.
34:34It's mom.
34:35How are you?
34:36I'm fine.
34:37Um, I just wanted to know why you didn't show up today.
34:43I just want to say what I have to say, honestly, and then you can do whatever you want.
34:49I love you, but I can't stand by and watch you embarrass yourself by associating, you know, with such a
34:55troll like Gino.
34:58I don't see why you feel the need to extend any grace to him at all after how badly he
35:02disrespected you in Michigan.
35:04You're a grown woman, you can make your own decisions, but at this point, don't expect me to support it
35:09anymore.
35:10What?
35:12And I just think you're just too beautiful and smart and successful to be with such a spineless loser like
35:17him.
35:18And I wish you saw that, too.
35:21I love you, but that's just really all I want you to hear from me.
35:28Whoa.
35:32She does not like me.
35:38Are you okay?
35:40No.
35:44I want to throw up.
35:47That was a lot of nasty words that Bella was saying about me.
35:51How bad of a person I am, what trash I am, loser, whatever.
35:57She didn't even give me a chance.
35:59She didn't even show up and meet me.
36:01I mean, come on.
36:03Don't judge me based on, you know, what you hear for one incident.
36:08It's not fair.
36:11After all of that, you know, how do you feel about me, I guess?
36:18My feelings for you haven't changed.
36:22However, I would like her blessing.
36:29Okay, so, okay.
36:32So basically, our relationship is kind of like on hold until you get her blessing.
36:39She's my number one.
36:40She's my number one priority.
36:44So what happens if she doesn't change her mind and she doesn't give her blessing?
36:50What would happen, you think, between us?
36:53I need to talk to her.
36:55And then as soon as I get the answer, I'll talk to you.
36:59Are you going to stay over at my place tonight?
37:03I'm going to try to go over to see Bella.
37:06Okay.
37:06It's important to me that we don't end the conversation on a negative note.
37:12Okay.
37:13That's fair.
37:16I get it.
37:18I care about Gino, but this is a lot bigger than my daughter not wanting to meet a guy that
37:24I'm dating.
37:25All right.
37:27Let's go.
37:29Let's go.
37:30Bella doesn't trust my judgment.
37:33She's never seen me in a healthy relationship.
37:36All right, well, let me get packing.
37:39And it makes me feel like a failure as a parent.
37:42That I was not able to show my daughter that I am capable of being in a good relationship.
37:50And I just want to go, and I want to comfort her, and I want to let her know that
37:54I'm okay and safe.
37:56She's my priority.
37:58Okay.
37:59Well, I better get going.
38:01Well, I had a really good time.
38:03Me too.
38:04So.
38:07The last two days have been awesome.
38:10Aw.
38:11Yeah.
38:11I know they have.
38:13Yeah, they've been awesome.
38:16The hardest thing is, what if my daughter never accepts him?
38:20Where would this relationship go?
38:22And I think he knows the answer.
38:25That's something I really don't want to deal with at this moment.
38:31I don't want to talk about this anymore.
38:34We'll have to see each other again soon.
38:37Yeah.
38:38Bye.
38:38Take care.
38:42I thought that this trip would bring Natalie and I closer together.
38:47I could use a drink.
38:48I imagine hitting it off with Bella, and then in the future, potentially becoming a father figure to her.
38:57I've always wanted to be a dad.
38:59So her daughter not wanting anything to do with me, it's impacting the dreams that I had for my life.
39:08And it makes me really sad.
39:10But these eyes won't cry, no fear, I'll fight.
39:21Oh, God.
39:26Next time on The Single Life.
39:29Let me touch it.
39:31Oh, wow.
39:32Okay.
39:34Going into this day, I don't really have any expectations.
39:36He's cute.
39:38His body seems fun.
39:39Like, this is literally one of the reasons I came to DR, to just have fun.
39:42What do you mean?
39:44Like England.
39:48Whoa, is that the Queen of England?
39:50Hello, peasants.
39:52Hello.
39:53After talking to Wayne for the past three months, I am in jolly old England to meet him in person.
39:59Hi.
39:59Oh, wow.
40:00I'm really hopeful that by the end of this trip, I do go home in a relationship.
40:06Now, I have to ask you.
40:07Okay.
40:07Are you dating now, here?
40:12Hey, Natalie, what's up?
40:15After Natalie's daughter disapproved of our relationship, I don't know where things stand.
40:21I was hoping that at some point you would talk to Bella to see how she feels.
40:25Because I know at the time you were saying, if she didn't like me, that, you know, we wouldn't have
40:32a relationship.
40:33Has that changed at all with her?
40:38I mean...
40:41Hey, Courtney.
40:42Good night.
40:44I'm going through a lot of internal conflict right now.
40:47I still care about Colt, and I still have love for him.
40:51Really, it is nice to see you.
40:52But then my mind's like, this lying, cheating, manipulative son of a bitch.
40:57Did you sleep with Diana?
40:59Can't say I didn't do that.
41:02Well, I'm glad you worked for her.
41:07Here we go, Ibiza, bitches.
41:08I'm trying to go with Sanela, listen to some music, and then you send me a message, and another, and
41:14another.
41:14You're ruining my night, but on top of it, I'm there with my cousin, and I'm embarrassed in front of
41:19her all over again.
41:21I need to understand what caused you to do what you did.
41:24If Tony wants to be with me, he's going to have to change.
41:28Fast.
