OK, OK.

There's a particular song that I've never performed.

It's very special to me.

But Karlie, could you please join me on the stage?

- I can't do it. - This is so beautiful.

- My sister, she's going to donate her eggs.

I don't know if you and I are going to work out.

See why I didn't have time and didn't answer that phone?

I love this new, new vibe, just...

- Way.

- Out having fun with your man.

- Yeah. - He good for you.

It's like you so much yourself.

- I am. Like, I'm so not nervous.

But I just don't want to just jump into something

just yet because I keep going

from relationship to relationship.

All of this ruckus is going around about Sierra

keep a mangate, of course, because

they caught a little glimpse of me and my friend

kissing in the kitchen.

Yes, I have someone that I'm seeing.

But like, I'm keeping this relationship

as private as possible.

And we just be rocking out.

We be--it--it's like a-- a vibe.

And I like that for me. I really do.

But the reason why I like [bleep] with Zay

is because Zay have been trying to get with me

since we was 16 years old.

He loved me for me. He liked the fat Sierra.

He liked the Sierra with no lip injections.

He liked Sierra with no money.

And that's why I [bleep] with him.

And that's why I respect him.

- I love that for you.

- In the past, I feel like

I had to tuck a lot of my emotions

to the back of my head and I really didn't get a chance

to vent and talk about it because I didn't want

to sound like the little girl who cry wolf.

You know what I'm saying?

So it's like, I'm not going to lie.

It was, like, a bit difficult.

No, it's OK.

That's why I'm always talking about it,

because it makes me emotional.

- But you got to talk about it, though.

- Yeah, but like,

I went through two other crazy public relationships.

So it's like, oh, Sierra just being crazy again.

But no, like, I almost lost my mind.

Like, this time,

I'm just really not listening to nobody but myself.

- It's over with now. - It's over.

My divorce finalized.

And I've been such in a better space.

You know, I just feel like I learned

so much about myself,

to really take my time, to really love on me.

I had to go through it to grow through it.

And I'm just so glad that I had the strength.

- What's going on with you and Zay, like--

- You look like you [bleep] glowing or some [bleep].

- Well, so you know how when we was in Canada,

I wasn't really feeling good and stuff?

- Yeah.

- I think I need to take a test.

So I am feeling sick.

I am a little late.

And I'm kind of adding up like when I started feeling sick,

and the type of sicknesses I have

and also the type of grown folk stuff I like to do.

So it's just a real moment like, what's going on?

- My--my nerves be bad. Come on.

Let's go get some food.

I'm hungry. - [laughs]

[knock at door]

- Come in.

- Oh, you sick.

You don't want to get the door.

- No, I don't want to get up. - How are you feeling, boo?

- I'm OK, baby. Oh, thank you.

- And I pay attention to detail.

So I heard some of the stuff that you like.

Today, I'm checking on Jessica.

The scare in Canada, when she left the group

while we were in the slopes,

I didn't know it was that serious.

So I'm here to love on her

and see really how I can support her.

I've been thinking about you, girl, since the trip.

- Oh, my God.

- First off, health-wise, how are you feeling?

- Uh, you know, I'm recovering.

- OK.

- I was really sick.

I have stage IV endometriosis.

It's like every single month, you have severe nausea.

Your cramps, nothing works.

Can't eat.

You're now dehydrated.

And you can't catch a [bleep] break.

I don't really like to talk about it any longer

because I first don't want sympathy about it.

- OK.

- But when I do feel good,

I kind of get, like, you know, real, real free-spirited.

Because most of the time, I'm always constantly in pain.

The big 10-centimeter cyst that was removed last year,

now it's growing back.

And it's 4 centimeters already.

And now that cyst there is hurting,

which is causing more nausea.

This is something that I deal with every 28 days of my life.

I can't continue living like this.

But how did you enjoy the trip?

- It was cool until you messed up my damn hair.

The fact that I had a girl do my face--

[both shouting]

- I'm about to kill Jessica.

- I'm just thinking we in a pool and let's have some fun.

I didn't think it was that big of a deal.

And Zell and Bambi said something

about reading the room and I'm like, really?

- The pool vibe was we was chilling.

It was giving shoulder-below wet.

That's the reading the room part.

- Amy, look at these hands of mine.

- Let me look at them good.

- I've been on this Earth over 200 times.

The one thing I'm not going to do

is come back as Jessica White, and this is my last life--

- And talk about--

- And [bleep] talk about hair and lashes.

- Now look at mine.

- You haven't been here that many times.

- I haven't been-- - They soft.

- I be room reading.

- But let me mother you then.

- But mother me dry. - [laughs]

- Sis, where you been?

And--and what did you come back as?

Like, I don't know.

If you've been here 200 times as a Black woman,

then you know when you see this wig on,

specifically a frontal,

you knew not to dunk me in the water.

But I'm just glad that Jessica is feeling better.

So your IG story?

- Well, you know, I'm about to start in vitro.

- How are you feeling about that?

- In a couple of weeks, I go in for my first treatment.

I want children.

And if you know Jessica White,

I'm going to keep [bleep] trying.

I have been posting on my social media in vitro journey.

And I'm here to be really honest

and to be vulnerable and tell the truth

and to make space for other people

to feel comfortable with telling the truth.

It just gives me more hope.

- My situation, you're actually--

you'll be the first friend, not family member,

that I've ever shared this with.

And you being open about this is really an inspiration to me.

[sighs]

[soft dramatic music]

I have something medically

that I've been running from for years,

even me naturally having a baby.

As a teenager, I received some bad news

about my reproductive health.

There's a canal in my vaginal area

that looks very thin, very fine.

And that is causing me to not menstruate regularly.

And I may not ever carry my own child naturally.

The worst part about all of this is

I was with Mazi for six years, and I never told him.

It's been such a secret.

I do feel guilty sometimes not fully, you know,

disclosing my medical situation with Mazi.

Because when me and Mazi were a couple,

we definitely were planning on having kids.

So although Mazi and I are not together,

I think that he deserves to know the truth.

- What you've got to do is get rid of the emotional guilt.

It's never going to be easy, Amy, because you feel--

you feel less of a woman.

- I do.

- Especially when I was with a man that

was able to get everybody pregnant but me.

- Same thing. I think of that with Mazi.

- It really [bleep]-- that [bleep] hurts.

I've gone through so many different emotions

to get to this point where I'm like [bleep] it,

I am about to do this.

And if I have to do it alone, I'm going to do it alone

and raise the best [bleep] child that I possibly can.

I am going to carry my child next year.

And no devil in hell is going to stop that.

- Got it.

- I think that you're going to be able to carry your baby.

And I touch and agree with you that that happens.

And I promise you. - And same for you.

- Yeah, seriously, seriously. - Thank you.

- It's going to happen.

- It's going to happen for you, too.

- It's going to happen.

- Coming up on "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- You've been actually acting a fool on social media lately.

- You know, it's a lot that's been going on.

- His ex? - He has one of his exes.

- Who was there for you when you were at your lowest point?

Was it me or was it Erica?

- I don't want to play no games with you.

He had me bring out the three best rings I had.

- I don't like him. She's not happy.

- Returning from Canada,

I hoped that I'd be able to snap my fingers

and wash away all that this year has been.

- I feel that we are in a dark place.

If this is going to be, if it's not,

then you got to let it go.

- Letting it go is not an option.

- You gotta be willing to put the work in.

- I'm dealing with my husband that doesn't feel loved,

doesn't feel like I prioritize him or the kids.

And it's been hard.

- Hello.

- How was school?

all: Good. - It was good?

At this point with Keisha, I can't turn back.

But I don't want to lose my marriage because of that.

- I don't feel like we in a relationship.

- What is it that you need?

- Pay attention to the love that's needed in this house.

- I really want to do what I need to do for Keisha.

But I also want to make sure my husband feels valued and heard,

because I cannot lose him.

So listen, I have to go to Erica Banks' release party.

- Um, I don't think he's coming.

Part of me feels like I want to still make decisions

because I am my own person.

And I don't want to feel penalized for doing that.

But I have not lost hope in my marriage.

And I am going to keep fighting.

- No, Santana and one of his exes.

[bell rings]

Two [bleep] with BBL, and wigs, and--

- Was that fake to aggravate you?

- I think he feels like it's going to get under my skin.

Santana is the one being difficult.

He just kept antagonizing me on the internet,

even though I'm out doing my own single thing right now.

I'm not posting [bleep] on the internet

trying to, like, do [bleep] to make you mad.

That's weird.

You're weird.

- I think it's both of us just being, like, stubborn.

But I'm not going as far as linking with a ex.

They look like Mr. and Mrs. Potato.

- I haven't seen it.

- I'm definitely talking trash out of hurt.

They're picking with me.

So I'm going to say whatever to hurt or to hit back.

I'm just like, hey, I'm focused on my fashion show.

But I wouldn't let that overshadow...

But he was a great lover and he was a great friend,

Let me tell y'all something.

- And I want to apologize.

- You was acting crazy too when Amy dropped you for her man.

- I want to apologize to Amy, because I let a lot of things

come between our friendship.

And it was just like a lot of misunderstandings.

And Momma Dee was real upset with the way I acted.

As far as your party, I apologize.

- I'm trying to figure what made her come sit down

with me and you talking.

I didn't say anything about Erica.

I don't know if it's because the fact

that my father is on life support.

I just been in a daze. - Yeah.

- You have been the only person

But I'm excited.

And I'm very appreciative and thankful

that this situation has happened with Zacc

and the type of man that he is,

because I'm looking forward to actually, like,

growing a family with somebody in a very healthy way.

I think this is just like the perfect time for me

to, you know, experience being a mom again.

I get to experience it with somebody I love.

And I've been on this healing journey, as you know.

I feel like I'm a better version of myself.

Everything we've gone through these past couple of months

just as far as healing and facing traumas,

I'm in a better space mentally, emotionally.

So I think, like,

everything is happening how it's supposed to happen

and right when it's supposed to happen.

Well, I don't think we should tell the kids and stuff yet.

But I'm going to call Sierra.

[soft upbeat music]

Where are you at? - Renni...

I just got done eating.

You looking all glowy and dewy.

- You know, me and you been kind of talking about

how I ain't been feeling good and stuff?

- What the [bleep]?

Oh, my God, you are pregnant!

I am a auntie!

Oh, my goodness. - [giggles]

- Oh my God, this is about to be our little baby.

I got to get on my rich auntie duties.

That's it.

So now I'm thinking about the baby shower,

I'm thinking about the push gift.

I'm thinking about the maternity pictures

and how, like, can I--

can I be in the maternity pictures?

With her and her baby daddy?

- I'm excited.

- We got so much [bleep] we got to do.

- [laughs]

- You pregnant, bitch! - [chuckles]

- Coming up on "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- I went to a doctor.

And the news that they gave me, I was scared to hear.

You've been asking for years.

- You know, after talking to Jessica

about my infertility issues,

it has been weighing on my spirit heavily.

You smell those treats, don't you, buddy?

Jessica definitely gave me a confidence boost

that I don't have to be embarrassed.

I am not alone.

I don't have to feel like something is wrong with me.

And I need to let it out.

Sit, Algebra.

- Oh, look at you go.

[upbeat music]

- I asked Mazi to meet up with me

so that I can finally be able to tell him

about this secret burden

that I've been carrying around for years.

- Come on. [clicks tongue]

- I really want closure with Mazi.

And now I'm starting to realize

whatever Mazi's issues are, at the end of the day,

I probably was projecting

my own personal thoughts and secrets

and fear about my own body on our relationship.

- How was your trip?

- Ooh, let me tell you, it was better

than I thought it would be.

Me and Renni hit it off really good.

- That's good.

- But the other day, I pulled up on Jessica.

And she just shared with me something that almost felt

like, boom, if you need another sign

that you need to talk about what you're going through--

I'm already choking up thinking about it.

Truth of the matter is when I was in high school,

I went to a doctor.

And the news that they gave me,

I was scared to hear that I possibly

can't have children naturally.

I've honestly been in denial about the news

that I may never conceive.

I definitely did everything to avoid that,

which included not going to my appointments.

I did not want to believe that this was my reality.

So you're not shooting blanks.

You've been asking for years.

It was me.

- Like, damn.

- I--I just don't want to accept that

none of that is my future.

So I just decided to never share it with you.

I just thought you deserved to know.

- Just to hear this, it's like [bleep].

I know this is devastating for Amy.

I wish I would have knew some of this, you know?

Because I would have been able

to carry some of the weight with you,

because you know you got this on your mind,

you got this on your mind, and this on your mind

that can cause a relationship to collapse.

And now I see it may be more than just me.

- That's hard.

I can't even believe I just said it out of my mouth.

I got to face it, and I got to accept it.

Like, instead of why would God make me like this?

Instead I could be like, it might be a bigger reason

why this is happening to me.

But I'm actually ready to face the music.

- Well, I'm behind you. Let's face it.

[somber music]

- To see him respond in such a compassionate way,

honestly, I'm looking at him in a much different light.

Because I expected the response to be, you're a liar.

What about all those times

where we talked about having kids,

and why haven't you gotten pregnant yet?

Like, he didn't talk about any of that.

I just feel like so much weight just got lifted off of me.

- So you ain't gotta just get down on yourself

or beat yourself down about it.

- [sighs]

- And I know you're a strong woman.

You know what I'm saying?

Like, I done seen you overcome a lot of stuff.

We ain't come this far for nothing.

- Well, I feel so much lighter.

- You should. I'm glad that you told me that, though.

- Mm.

- I know that was a big one.

- Coming up on "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta"...

- Come here.

Come on one minute. Let me talk to you.

- Where are we going?

- A lot of action over here, so step over here one sec.

- OK.

I'm really shocked that Kai showed up.

We've just been in a weird space, you know?

I didn't invite him.

- You know, I came here for real-for real

because I really felt like I owed you more than an apology.

You know, you put something in my phone, way out of pocket.

This is the first step to me accepting accountability.

- Oh, thank you.

Kai, thank you. Thank you so much.

- You know my man Wafi, I think you know my jeweler.

The second step is me not only

professing my love and my trust for you and understanding

that I don't want to play no games with you.

I want to go all the way live with you.

and let you choose which one you like.

- Come on, Mama.

- Oh, Karlie.

- Come on, Mama, no, no, come on, come on, come on, Mama.

- When Kai showed up with the ring, I'm shocked.

And when I get shocked, I fall.

- It's not that. It's just that I see a ring and fall out.

I--for some reason, I couldn't stand up anymore.

I just had to get to the ground and just pray.

It wasn't about me falling out. It was about me praying.

- Come on.

- Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.

- No, we ain't gonna do that.

- Karlie, this is too much.

The acting, the falling on the floor.

That is a clear sign of the answer is no.

- We ain't gonna do that. We ain't gonna do that.

Mama, Mama, let me talk to my lady.

I told you I always got you.

- I don't know what this whole charade is about.

But what I do know is I don't trust him.

I don't like him.

And I know a user when I see one.

- We don't have anything if we ain't got trust.

And ain't nobody can take my place.

And nobody can take yours.

So we're going to do what we do.

We're going to go down to Wafi, make sure that ring size right.

- For Kai, this is a really big deal.

I've been wanting Kai to change for some time now.

And I really love Kai.

So if he's ready for the next step,

I'm ready for the next step.

I may fall for a ring, but I never turn it down.

- Which one you like?

- 12 carats, 10 carats, 12 carats.

- How about that one? Yeah.

- This one. - OK, fair shake.

- You bring your lying ass,

make a whole scene with some fake-ass rings?

Seriously?

Kai is not buying any of these rings.

Kai not even driving his own goddamn cars.

He driving Karlie's car.

I support anything that you do, but I got to get back.

- You OK. You all right.

- All right. Is she OK, though?

- Of course. Big love. There's love over here.

- Big love, polyamorous love?

[tense music]

- I have no idea what you're talking about.

Have a great one, though.

- Jessica opinion means a lot to me.

That's my best friend.

But she's telling me something

because she had to deal with it

in her previous relationship.

I get it, because even though Kai gives me this ring,

he's claiming me.

But he might still have bitches.

The problem is this.

I still love Kai.

- Yo, [bleep] is in there getting proposed to,

flowers on the ground, all types of [bleep].

I don't even know what's going on.

this fake marriage.

And go Ame, Ame, you hurt?

What the [bleep]? I am so confused right now.

Because there's been a lot of stuff going on in the streets

with Karlie and this guy, OK?

Kai, you got 25, 28, 30 other women,

and now you want to propose?

Make it make sense, brah.

- What did he do yesterday? - [bleep].

Did some wild [bleep] yesterday.

No, he is not the one, I'm sorry.

Karlie is just blinded by the moment.

I think that Karlie is over his bull[bleep],

to be honest with you.

And he can feel her slipping away.

And what does a narcissist do

when you're not feeding their ego?

They [bleep] go crazy to try to bring you back in.

You didn't ask me to marry you. You just showed me rings.

Is a proposal coming next?

I mean, like, how-- how do I explain it?

It's not right.

- 'Cause you know I'ma take the ring.

No, I didn't get down on one knee, because guess what?

I ain't got your trust yet. Let me earn your trust.
