Sheree Whitfield defended Martell Holt’s refusal to pay her birthday dinner bill.
“Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Sheree Whitfield has a lot of people talking about her romance with Martell Holt. On the recent episode, the “Love & Marriage: Huntsville” cast member was discussed. Kenya Moore was updating Shamea Morton and Kandi Burrus about Sheree’s recent birthday dinner. She went on to say Marlo Hampton and Sanya Richards-Ross told her that Martell refused to pay the $1500 bill. Instead, he asked everyone in attendance to chip in via Cash App. So this had some of the ladies questioning Martell’s finances and the legitimacy of his relationship with Sheree. To no surprise, this was brought up as the cast reflected on the episode during the After Show.
Interestingly enough, Sheree called out Marlo and Sanya. Both denied telling Kenya that Martell didn’t want to pay. But this didn’t prevent Sanya and Sheree from having a heated exchange about what happened that evening. And Sheree took issue with Sanya not showing up with a birthday gift.
Sheree said, “At the end of the day, it was just a little much for anybody to come and think that they were gonna come to my birthday party and not bring me a gift. And not do this and not do that and then you think youâre gonna get your meal paid. You know weâre not married or anything⊔
Marlo sided with Sheree, “I was about to say yâall have not been together for that long for him to pay the bill that we have for that whole table.”
Sanya Richards-Ross responded to Sheree Whitfield shading her for not arriving with a birthday gift.
Sheree went on to explain why she felt Martell wasn’t wrong, “I have not been to dinner with anyone whose guy paid for me period by myselfâŠany of you guys. Typically when itâs a birthday party, people chip in.”
She added, “People can chip in when youâre the birthday girl, especially when you donât bring a gift.”
Sanya chimed in and admitted she did think Martell would pay for everyone. But she now understands they haven’t been together long enough for that. But she wanted to clarify why she didn’t have a gift to give Sheree.
“The thing is Sheree when we first heard about the dinner I thought it would just be me, you, and Ross. I didnât⊔
And Sheree responded with some shade, “But when you got there and figured it out, you wanted your meal to be paid for when you got there and didnât know, empty-handed?”
This resulted in the conversation becoming tense as Sanya didn’t think Sheree should have been bothered about not receiving a gift.
The conversation became really tense.
Sanya said, “Empty-handed? I literally found out about your restaurant party the day beforeâŠyouâre not 5 years old. Iâm not gonna run to the store to go buy you a gift. Youâre grown.” She continued, “I paid for yâall to eat at Ross’ birthday party. I didnât ask yâall to chip.”
At this point, Sheree assumed Sanya was calling her cheap. Sanya assured her she doesn’t believe Sheree is cheap. But she just expected Martell to pay because husbands usually do that when she’s with her girlfriends. But it only got messy from there.
Sheree then said, “Yeah, he did pay for me. But why would he pay for you and your husband? Ross shouldnât even want a man paying for him and his wife.”
Sanya eventually asked Sheree, “You never been to a couples date where the man takes care of your dinner⊔
After Sheree said this has never happened to her, Sanya breaks down how it usually goes.
“Ross went to go pay and the man told him it was already paid. I was in the club with Kandi and them and Todd paid. When I went to⊠remember that time? Todd⊔
Sheree dismissed this and said this only happens when it’s 2 or 4 people. Sanya responded, “No, no, no! It was like 8 of us!”
Marlo eventually intervened as Sanya and Sheree were yelling over each other and she told them to drop it. They then hugged it out.

Sheree and Martell arenât in Sanya and Rossâ tax bracket so theyâll never understand how the wealthy move.
Sheree…..Sheree….SHEREE!!!!! Girl….u will continue to allow yourself to look like a desperate fool trying to defend Martel…If he was the one the arranged this “Birthday Dinner” and invited everyone,then it’s either him or u that should have paid the bill….or the both of u paid it together. But tell people to Cash App their portion of the bill is a funny messđđ€Ł I feel y’all should have told the people in advance they would be paying for their own meal…Just say he didn’t have the funds girl!!!!
They pick on Drew and Sanya a lot. The funny thing is Kenya and Kandi said Sanya and Marlo are fake friends to Sheree, but Kandi and Kenya are fake friends to Drew. Look how badly they treat her. The show is awful now because these women donât have any chemistry. They donât like each other.
Girl, Sanya! Why are you going back and forth with Sheree about broke Martell paying for anybody. He probably didn’t want to pay for he and Sheree.
He’s not like your husband and you or Drew and Ralph or Kandi and Todd or Monyetta and her husband and even Kenya by herself would have paid the $1,500.00 dollar food bill. Heck Kenya was willing to pay Drew’s lawsuit bill to make it go away.
Stop Sanya, Sheree is cheap and Martell is broke.
As for the gift, it is customary and classy to bring a birthday gift. But, did she bring one to Ross’s party?
IJS, Lawd! Ya’ll are going from bad to worse. Get it together, ladies!
I know Shereeâs relationship with Martell is fake but she really sounds pathetic here. She dates bums so she has no idea what itâs like to have a man provide and pamper his woman.
I agree with all of you! First of all, Martell will NEVER feel about ANYONE the way he feels for Melody. It’s quite obvious. He has five (5) children to support so yes, MARTELL IS BROKE. Have you seen the way he’s living on Huntsville? His house and furniture looks like it came from Rent-A-Center. His clothes are too little, and he’s become a whiney mess. BTW — Sheree looks like Kim Zolciak Biermann in this picture. Just a shade darker!!! I no longer watch the show–very toxic and way too messy. Absolutely NO chemistry among this bunch.
Sheree needs to stop making excuses for this jerk. A real man would not put you in an awkward position of not being able to cover the bill for HIS woman birthday dinner. If he wasnât such a jerk he should have never gone and it would not have made her look bad but she made excuses that they had only been dating a few months. I bet she âs sleeping with him. It now shows who kept Martellâs marriage together. Mel was the best thing that could have happened to Martell.
If she’s okay with him not footing the bill then I’m all 4 it.
Yes Sherre defend what’s yours
Cheri, Cheri Cheri, which ever you wanna call yourself Marcella Loves Melody, you are wasting your time he do not want you. He loves fame and fortune he will leave you like he love, coleslaw girl run for the hills go back to shien for clothing. He loves his wife and his children. He will eventually get them back. You better back off like coleslaw. Did she got some nuts you better get some tođ€đđđđŸ his wand and dried out
We have to excuse Sheree, she just needs a peace of a_s. Martell can’t buy a gift because he is going thru a divorce and having money problems.
That is so true and sad I am just SMH, he really want his family back. I heard that they are no longer seeing each other, I think it happened right after her Birthday.
That relationship was fake,,,just like Shein by Sheree. Shere keeps picking losers that use and embarrass her on camera. If HE planned your last-minute party the HE should have paid for it last minute. She is just too dumb for me! Tries to talk fast and over people all the time like a child! I wish I would have chipped in…me: what? Cash App? Boy Bye!
Martell, did have a $100.00 dollars to pay for the booth at the black expo. Hahahahđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
If Martell planned and invited guest to Sheree birthday dinner then he should have been responsible for the bill unless he made it known that everyone was responsible for paying for their own meal! I wouldnât have accepted invite knowing Martell is broke as fuk ! Sheree low class self wrong for clowning Martell about not being able to afford designer bag! She also wrong for fronting on people for not bringing her a gift this not a childâs partyâŠmaybe since it was last minute person didnât have time to go out and shop for gift! All these people are messy ! Also Kendra did not offer too pay for Drew lawsuitâŠshe was just talking out side of her neckâŠ.she insinuated that the girls cheap in 8 ways to pay Drew lawsuit! Sheree need stop associating herself with low class broke a-s men but I guess thatâs the only type of man thatâs attracted to her! Stop giving off thirsty vibes maybe youâll attract a man worth your time!
sanya that rental ainât going to pay! Sheree you trying too hard but he is faking you! He just want a đ
And they all look like Bob Whitfield đ€. Sheree definitely has a type.
