Deb meets with Bow Wow’s dad.
At a restaurant, an apologetic Deb sits down with Bow Wow’s dad and the episode ends before the conversation begins.
What are your thoughts on the episode?
That Amy is shady. How can you want someone to meet your dad when they won’t even claim you…am I missing something
I don’t get it either. I think Ayana should move on.
Reginae is probably one of the brattiest children ever.
So Toya claimed she gotta check Reginae for talking sh*t about her but instead tells her she gonna throw a party. She sure told her! Smdh now I see why that lil girl is the way she is. Everytime her scenes come on I gringe with irratation!
Ayana has wasted two years of her life. If someone still isn’t sure about you two years I’m, it’s time to let go.
Toya doesn’t know how to discipline Reginae.
