Women Of “The Real” Discuss How Jeannie’s Divorce Turned Messy & Vincent Herbert’s Sabotage
How do you decide what you want to share on the show?
Adrienne: There are actually moments on the show where we don’t plan on sharing it and somehow the conversation just goes there and we forget the cameras are running. And it’s like, ‘Damn, should I have said that?’ And then you kind of just say, everything that comes out of your mouth—like I look back at other seasons, and I’m like, ‘Who was I then?’ I had different opinions then than I do now. And I just appreciate that I shared where I was on my journey.
Jeannie Mai: In the moment, in the heat of what I’m going through right now, for anybody who knows what divorce feels like, it effing sucks. It’s terrible and you wake up with a rock in your heart and you just feel like you can’t really make it through the day because it just feels so heavy, especially when finances get involved, especially when people change.
It just erupted in me and it made me realize Adrienne when you said, ‘Girl, I forgot you were going through divorce.’ And it’s because as a good ole Asian person, we suppress ish and we just focus on working.
