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 you’re gonna get your meal paid. You know we’re not married or anything…”
Marlo sided with Sheree, “I was about to say y’all 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 myself…any of you guys. Typically when it’s a birthday party, people chip in.”
She added, “People can chip in when you’re the birthday girl, especially when you don’t 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 didn’t…”
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 didn’t 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 before…you’re not 5 years old. I’m not gonna run to the store to go buy you a gift. You’re grown.” She continued, “I paid for y’all to eat at Ross’ birthday party. I didn’t ask y’all 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 shouldn’t 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 aren’t in Sanya and Ross’ tax bracket so they’ll never understand how the wealthy move.
Oprah’s Wig!
Bullseye!
Yes so true
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 mess😂🤣 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!!!!
I came here for the comments Sis and you are spot on. The only thing I will add is Sheree seems to ignore the fact that the house is leasing from his friend has been sold. So how does she figure he can afford a $1500.00 meal while trying to demand child support from Mel. He is not even making money with his Sutter House wine? It is truly giving desperate.I would have left and not dropped one dime for dinner. Then Sheree had the gall to tell Santa that she should have bought her a gift and that it was expected that everyone pay but her since she was the birthday girl???? Ain’t nobody got time for that.
You just spoke volumes about Sheree, pertaining to Martel, TRUST ME SHE’S DEFINITELY GOING TO F..K AROUND AND FIND OUT HOW, NARACCISTIC HE REALLY IS SMDH, BOTH OF THEM DESPERATE, BUT WTF AM I TO JUDGE, JUST MY OPINION THOUGH
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 don’t have any chemistry. They don’t like each other.
I agree Queen!
It’s one big mess across the board.
All of this. The season is trash because none of these women are friends.
Exactly
I agree! It’s turned into a lot of black women sniping and saying nasty, denigrating things to and about other black women. It’s gotten be be really embarrassing at this point.
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!
“Stop Sanya, Sheree is cheap, and Martell is broke.”
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS REPLY SO TRUE AND TO THE POINT
Agreed, and you said nothing but facts. Sheree wants everything to be about her just like Martell.
A short time boyfriend shouldn’t have been expected to foot the whole bill, and I bet if you asked any of those guys to be honest about, they wouldn’t assume they were supposed to pay that whole bill under Martell’s circumstances either. It’s these petty women, always looking for some way to shade and slight somebody. This is nowhere near a real friend group. It’s obviously all for our entertainment only type. Too bad that and things like that on movies and tv is the only representation of who black people are and act is that a lot of millions of people ever see.
You just spoke volumes about Sheree, and Martel, yes you definitely did, and Shree believes her own lies, she’ll lie right 2 your face and switch it around to try to make her casket faced AZZ look revelant, her and Martel deserve each other BOTH are NARACCISTIC, CHEAP AND ALWAYS WANT TO BE THE CENTER OF ATTENTION, SAD BUT DEFINITELY TRUE
I know Sheree’s relationship with Martell is fake but she really sounds pathetic here. She dates bums so she has no idea what it’s like to have a man provide and pamper his woman.
AMEN, AMEN, CHURCH. SAY IT AGAIN “V” FAKE FAKE FAKE SHE APPEARS TO BE A SLOW LEARNER. HOW MANY MORE MEN IS SHE GOING TO BE ENTANGLED WITH BEFORE SHE LEARNS SOME COMMON SENSE. D@@@ IT APPEARS THAT LIFE HAS NOT TAUGHT HER ANYTHING, OR SHE IS DUMB, WHEN IT COMES TO MEN?????????????? MARTELL HOLT IS A SERIAL CHEATER SHE SHOULD KNOW THIS. SHE CANNOT CHANGE HIM
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.
The plastic surgery trying to look young is giving doe like features to her face..Stop before it’s too late to turn back She by whatever Sheree!!😄
I’m in awe of whatever she did to her face. Sheree was so naturally beautiful. I just can’t understand it. 😯
I’m like damn the dinner.. wtf is going on with her face. She’s unrecognizable almost.
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 wasn’t 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 ‘s sleeping with him. It now shows who kept Martell’s 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 to🤑😜😂👀🍾 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. Hahahah🤣🤣🤣
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 wouldn’t 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 child’s party…maybe since it was last minute person didn’t have time to go out and shop for gift! All these people are messy ! Also Kendra did not offer too pay for Drew lawsuit…she was just talking out side of her neck….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 that’s the only type of man that’s attracted to her! Stop giving off thirsty vibes maybe you’ll attract a man worth your time!
sanya that rental ain’t going to pay! Sheree you trying too hard but he is faking you! He just want a 🍑
And they all look like Bob Whitfield 🤭. Sheree definitely has a type.
