When her voice cracked after “wife and a mom” knowing how many years she sat on that same set and denied herself of that, now seeing her become those very things is so incredibly beautiful. I’m so proud of her growth, always keeping it real, and never apologizing for the girl she used to be.

Jeannie really went through so much during this show, she ended a 10 year long mariage, had to endure racist comments, spoke on her sexual assaults and now she is happily married with a baby girl. Wow. Please keep up with her on "Hello Hunnay with Jeannie Mai"

I always thought Jeannie was the most open one and the realest as long as sharing her personal life. And I just adore her and her growth.

I wish Loni could’ve been there in person. This show means so much to me. And to my mom. We started watching it together from the test season and it was something we talked about almost daily. This AND Wendy. “Did you see The Real today? And I was laughing when they said “X”. Both shows are ending and I feel like a chapter of my life is closed. My mom and I bond over a million other things, but this was something that was in our lives daily. I truly appreciate EVERYTHING you ladies have given. Know that you have touched so many people.
