Sweet Tea’s time on Married 2 Med hasn’t been easy.
The last couple of seasons of “Married to Medicine” have been very controversial due to Phaedra Parks, Lateasha “Sweet Tea” Lunceford, and Dr. Gregory Lunceford joining the cast. Some fans feel like all three are being targeted for storyline reasons. Phaedra received a lot of flak from the group while helping Dr. Jackie Walters plan the Med Gala.
Phaedra departed the show after Dr. Heavenly Kimes invited Apollo Nida and his wife to the couples’ trip. Interestingly enough, Phaedra and Apollo’s tension wasn’t the only source of drama. Quad Webb clashed with Sweet Tea and Greg while drunk. This happened while the group played a game that required the couples to answer intimate questions.
On the upcoming episode, the exchange between the exes will lead to Gregory and Quad’s boyfriend King getting into an altercation. It has since been confirmed that Gregory pressed charges against King.
Fans who have been keeping up with Sweet Tea’s debut on the show know it’s been a messy journey for her. On YouTube, Heavenly admitted to asking Sweet Tea to do the show for shady reasons. She told her followers she wanted Sweet Tea on the platform for laughs and so Quad could “read” her. On other occasions, Heavenly said she wanted Tea there to give Quad a storyline. She said Sweet Tea saved Quad’s job.
The friendships Sweet Tea thought she formed before the show have fizzled out.
Jackie also talked Sweet Tea into joining the cast. She now no longer likes Sweet Tea. During her latest “Watch What Happens Live” appearance, Jackie said Sweet Tea needed to “apologize” for her “existence.”
Toya Bush-Harris and Dr. Simone Whitmore also aren’t in a good space with Sweet Tea, despite wanting her on the show originally. During Sweet Tea’s YouTube reviews, she expressed frustration with Toya and Simone. In her opinion, both have downplayed Heavenly’s actions too much despite their past conflicts with Heavenly. And she thinks this is strange.
Then there is Quad. Before Tea and Gregory joined the cast, it seemed like there was no bad blood. Quad even congratulated Greg and Tea on their engagement on Instagram. So Sweet Tea was taken aback by Quad mocking how she speaks and throwing shade on IG Live and interviews.
As it stands, Sweet Tea is only on good terms with Phaedra and Dr. Contessa Metcalfe. Contessa and Phaedra have expressed similar sentiments about Heavenly. They believe the ladies enable Heavenly because she does their dirty work.
Toya Bush-Harris is done with Sweet Tea.
Sweet Tea’s latest YouTube video has been making rounds online. In the video, she said the way she’s being treated is bizarre. At this point, it just feels like bullying.
“Like Toya, she really wanted me to go to war with Gregory’s ex when I didn’t know her. She wanted me to go to war with Gregory’s ex when I didn’t know her. I was like I don’t understand why ‘cause I don’t know her. Why would I be upset? There’s no reason to be upset and there’s no beef. It’s just strange having these people try to get me on the show and come together, and hey, open the door with open arms to welcome me, and all of a sudden just flip a switch randomly…just to invite me on to bully me,” Sweet Tea said.
She added, “I feel like I was just a pity to them. I was just a dollar sign.”
Sweet Tea feels completely used by the people she and Gregory were hanging out with before joining “Married to Medicine.”
She said, “It’s very disappointing because these are people that I’ve had at my house. I’ve never seen so many desperate people with jobs, with jobs, careers, professions like being doctors that desperate for a storyline.”
At this point, Sweet Tea wasn’t even certain she would attend the reunion.
“So everybody wants to ask if I’m going to the reunion…I really don’t know. I mean I still gotta talk it over with Gregory on how we’re going to show up, if we’re gonna show up.”
Toya clapped back on Instagram Story. She wrote, “Please don’t lie on me!!! I rebuke your kind of crazy…these sob stories are A LOT for all of us. #married2med @therealsweet_tea Baby Girl…Just distance yourself if everyone is so horrible to you…✋ #itried.”
The reunion is being filmed today.
“Married to Medicine” is having a casting issue.
Sweet Tea isn’t the only person who expressed these sentiments about being on “Married to Medicine.”
Audra Curry was on the show for one season. Fans probably remember the altercation she had with Toya. When Audra discussed not being asked back, she said it seemed like new cast members are always set up to fail on “Married to Medicine.” She felt this was especially true for younger women.
She said, “But if you wanna know how I really feel about the show, I feel like it is their show, like the OGs, I feel like it is their show. And I feel like when they bring in new people, they bring in new people because they want it to be a younger show. That’s what they’ve always said, we want it to be younger. We wanna show the beginning of medicine because my husband had just graduated, like just graduated residency. So we wanna show the progression of how it is instead of towards the end when you already own 40 practices and you’re about to retire…but then they don’t really create an environment for that to flourish.”
Quad discussed how the cast will ice someone out of the group after she was the target during the previous season. She told Carlos King that the situation made her understand how Mariah Huq must have felt when she was iced out of the show she created.
Toya is very fake. She will act like she supports someone to their face but it’s the opposite behind their back. Simone too. They did the same thing to Mariah. So I believe Sweet Tea. The reason this show isn’t good anymore is because the cast has become so fake and contrived. They are trying to produce themselves instead of letting drama naturally happen like they used to. I’m also tired of them ganging up on people and icing out anyone who won’t kiss their butts. They are all way too old to be mean girls. I just don’t have to watch anymore. I’m tired of all the OGs. Sweet Tea needs to leave so she can focus on getting pregnant in peace. This show ain’t worth the stress.
Sweet Tea came in as a bully and when she said she wanted access to the money, I think that did it for all of them.
The only bullies on the show are Quad and Heavenly and they’ll get what they deserve one day!!!!!!!
Girl what? Yeah Toya is getting on my nerves now. Toya and Quad get ganged up on the most but they’re enjoying it happening to Sweet Tea. That says a lot about their character or lack thereof. The way they gaslight Sweet Tea is the biggest reason why I stopped watching full episodes.
I think it’s very disturbing to go out of your way to fake support a couple just to get them on a show to humiliate them. Married to Medicine really sucks now. I quit watching because I value my time and mental health. I used to love this show but it gives me the same dark energy LAMH did. They lost me.
Sweet Tea makes six figures from her real life job. She’s also a military veteran. This is the biggest source of income for Toya, Quad, Heavenly, Jackie, and Simone. That’s why they all act so desperate to keep the show on the air and why they hated on Phaedra (she’s wealthier than all of them). Tea doesn’t need this show. I think she should quit to protect herself and marriage.
First of all Greg should have never wanted to come back to the show but I guess he figured he would parade his new wife in front of Quad as if she cared a real manly man wouldn’t have come back he never showed his face all the time he and Quad was separated his plan backfired Now Quad brought her man on Greg can’t take it and T. always running her mouth jumping in where she doesn’t fit needs to get her husband straight Stevie Wonder can see it in Dr G eyes that he wants Quad
You sound just as delusional as Quad! Greg and Sweet Tea were hanging out with these people more than Quad was before they were on the show. Quad only comes around when the cameras are there. For goodness sake Greg golfs with the husbands! That was before he was on the show! He’s not parading anyone around, he’s just living his life. Quad has mental illness and thinks everything is a competition and everything is about her so Greg just getting married again offends her! She needs real help! And he wants Quad? Are you insane? Greg cheated on her and kicked her out of his house! That is NOT how a man treats a woman he loves! You people need help right along with Quad!
Admittedly I only read the articles and comments and have not watched this show in a while. They are an embarrassment to the medical community as doctors. A bunch 9f grown mean girls. Who is Jackie to question anyone’s right to existence? Perhaps her life has to fall in on her again. Contessa Sweet tea take your marbles and get off this platform. You dont need the negative energy or the stress. Screw that reunion. From what I’ve understood and know from a Clinician perspective you’ve been bullied and lied too by older women who should have protected your humanity as a black woman but choose to protect their purses. Shame on them all. They will get theirs. Move on
Toya’s response is really disappointing but not surprising. The only person she’s ever shown any loyalty to is Simone. Toya and Eugene will be bullied again after Sweet Tea leaves. And I won’t feel bad for them since they’re fine with it happening to Tea and Greg.
Sweet tea is a Gold digger.She should be on a show with people her age , who are looking for old men who they think are looking for Young Diggers.
Toya is a gold digger. Quad is a gold digger and only married Greg to get on the show. Curtis is a gold digger. And? Anyway, you didn’t care about Quad and Greg’s age gap so why fake care now? Who cares? Women have been marrying men for money and opportunities since the beginning of time. Y’all only have an issue when black women do it. Sorry we’re not all breaking our necks to marry and take care of broke men. Next topic. 🙄
This show didn’t even exist or was thought of when o married Greg. wtf are u talking about?
Girl what? How do you not know Greg and Quad literally got married before they started filming the first season? They were together WHILE Mariah was developing and pitching the show. I bet you don’t even know the real mugshot story either. Or who Quad was with before Greg. Quad didn’t marry Greg out of love baby. That’s old tea.
You sound so foolish Sweet Tea has a very well paying JOB. More than you can say about some of those other hags on the show. This show has gone to its lowest level with these so called professional black women So So Sad .
Toya is full of sh-t. It’s clear as day Simone, Toya, Jackie, and Heavenly fake befriended and BEGGED Sweet Tea to be on the show so they could get under Quad’s skin and kick her off. When the majority of the fans sided with Quad they then backtracked and now have a fake issue with everything Tea does. It’s the same TIRED bs they did to Mariah and they have done it to so many black women since. If you don’t kiss the wanna be fab five’s a-s, they will make your life miserable until they run you off the show. Married 2 Med has run its course. Sweet Tea was one of the most authentic people to join the show in years. They’re too full of themselves to make good TV anymore.
Well said. They’re trying to make everyone hate Sweet Tea but for me she’s the only real person on the show at this point and they want to run her off. It makes no sense. The show was stale until Sweet Tea.
Toya has been forgettable this season. Honestly, this show can go away. It’s so toxic and boring. I would rather watch RHOSLC and RHOBH now. Sweet Tea makes a lot of money at her real job and so does Greg so she’ll be okay without this show. The beginning of the end was when Mariah was fired and they started pretending like Heavenly was some breakout star (she’s actually ruined the show though).
Toya fell and landed on her head. Sweet Tea is right Toya and Simone are acting like Heavenly’s behavior is normal. It’s not normal, they just glad that she’s not going after them, right now. Jackie is the fakest woman on that show. She throws rocks and hides her hands and uses Heavenly as her attack dog. The fact that Sweet Tea, Contessa and even Phadrea are not taking their bull has them shook.
I personally could care less if Sweet Tea and Greg come to the reunion
Gregory and Sweet tea should not come on the show with quad because he is still in love with her and Sweet tea know she could not have children when she got on the show she use Gregory to get on TV l don’t believe Quad can have children because she would had a baby with Gregory she didn’t want a divorce untill Gregory ask for a Baby that’s my opinion Don’t mean I’m Right Both wives use him
Boring, a bunch of old, tired mean girls. I can hardly believe real doctors are that hungry for $$$ that they’d show the world how ignorant they are. They’re an embarrassment
