Shay Johnson and Iyanla Vanzant had problems on “Iyanla: Fix My Life.”

Shay Johnson and Iyanla Vanzant clashed on “Iyanla: Fix My Life.” Although Shay and her brothers came on the show with the intent to hash things out with their mother, Shay didn’t anticipate that she would be called out, too. Turns out her mother wasn’t the only one who felt as if Shay’s mouth was a problem. Both her brothers Emjay Johnson and Dr. Joe Johnson said that Shay could be flat out disrespectful at times.

After they expressed this, Shay called them out as well. And Iyanla wasn’t happy about this because she asked Shay to not say anything back and just listen to what her siblings had to say first.

Iyanla and Shay would end up clashing over this. And before Shay left the session, she told Iyanla, “F*ck your process!” Iyanla then decided she would not sit down with Shay, again. But Shay’s family was able to continue. Shay would later be brought back to hash things out with her family, but Iyanla refused to be there.

So Shay took to Instagram Live to address the situation. And she said that she feels like Iyanla doesn’t “own up to sh*t” and she has a “smart a*s mouth.”

Shay Johnson calls out Wendy Williams.

Wendy Williams asked Iyanla about this when she appeared on her talk show. She said, “Shay Johnson, who I believe was Buckeey on Flavor of Love, remember? She says that you abused your power.” Wendy continued, “She ran away from the house and then you brought her back, and then she ended up going on social media immediately and saying horrible things about you and the show and you and you and you.”

In response to this, Iyanla said, “Not true, I did not put her out. She left, that was very clear because I think she wasn’t in control of the process and she…it’s very clear. We don’t use a script and we tell a story. And she left on her own.” She continued, “And she has her version of what happened and I have mine. But here’s the bottom line, every guest gives me an intention. Her intention was to get healing for her family. That’s what she said, that’s in the show. And that’s what happened. She left but her family got the healing.”

Shay was not happy about this. So she called out Wendy on Instagram.

She posted the clip of what was said, and in the caption, Shay wrote, “Messy @wendyshow ? ??‍♀️. My “LIVE” you’re referring to was my opinion with my experience on #FixMyLife …I did not say horrible things about @iyanlavanzant ?… I spoke my truth and that’s that have a blessed day ? (P.S. @wendyshow you should go on the show! We all know you need to “FIX YOUR LIFE”) could help ??‍♀️
