A Deadly Love Affair | FULL EPISODE | Dr. Phil

The kids. Lives wrecked by immature selfish people. The poor kids.

[@marumaruu3115]

She blamed, even scolded, the widow, who is her victim. Her husband blamed the man he murdered, that is, his victim, for his own death. It is clear to me, that they both are shameless psychopaths of the worst kind.

Too many people grow to need and alot of the time they use the one they're cheating on so they do want to leave.

[@carlacraig7400]

I think they're both victims of a man who was totally selfish and his selfishness ended up hurting so many others in the process.

[@dawnchetty1497]

Only one or them is a victim. The other is a cheater and a liar

[@phil6899]

People need to break out of a relationship before they make out with another person.

[@teresa55808]

When I found out about my husband's affairs I never "blamed" the women. My issue was with my husband not them. When after a few years of leaving him, while at a gathering one of his mistresses came and introduced herself to me I loudly answered.." O I do know you, you had an affair with my husband". The whole room heard this even her husband. Well now his issue is with his wife.

[@Katie-sf7jt]

Kandi Hall went on to be arrested for felony grand theft and was sentenced to 14 years in prison. She embezzled from her employer. That is what kind of person she is. Her poor children.

[@violetbarrios-gl9zd]

Then she thinks she's a victim.

[@kellyewhiteside3475]

Kandi was fired from her prior employer before Emmett for stealing from her boss and is also a felon

[@FreeBird_6791]

Kandi tries several times to make herself out to be a victim but she's an equal participant who got the ball rolling on destroying a marriage, a family, including her own which makes it strange why her own husband doesn't blame her.

[@Claire-gv7pi]

She didn’t get the ball rolling the dead husband did-he hit on her

[@holyspiritfire8268]

Ths is a cold, calculated, narcissistic, psycopath, and she should be in prison as well as the husband. If there was video evidence of the shooting I'm sure she would be. These types of psycopaths are incapabel of feeling guilt, shame, sorrow, and they see themselves as the victim even after doing something so horrific. To look at the woman that she did this to and speak to her like she is the victim and the young mother is the evil one...I dont think Ted Bundy had as cold a heart as this woman does.

[@Amarieethepriest]

If you knowingly date someone who is committed in a monogamous relationship, you're a bad person. Not if you were dating someone and found out they were married/dating, but you know and continue on with the affair. Bad person. I know its hard for the widow to go through this, but I wouldnt claim him ever. He no doubt has had many affairs. I know thats easier said than done but her saying that he was hers made me mad for her. Deserves better.

[@tynnaoneill5139]

Oh Ashley has certainly rebounded .

[@fayezakamal3778]

I feel terrible for the children on either side.

[@Zanzibee]

Not sure why she doesn’t hold her husband responsible for being a cheater. He’s the one that betrayed their marriage and broke their marriage contract. The other woman was one of many. She has focused all her hate and anger on this other woman, but in reality, her husband was a complete loser.

[@Katie-sf7jt]

She has given many interviews. She does hold him responsible. He treated she and the children horribly. A bad guy. The adulteress is just so darn unlikeable and pretends to be a victim. I would make sure the whole world knew what kind of woman she is.

[@BizQAC]

I agree. I understand she was the one who had the husband that shot him but it could have ended up being any. It’s also normal for people to block out bad memories, watching your husband shoot the guy you’re cheating with is pretty traumatic. As odd as all of this is that’s legitimate imo

[@clb8242]

He was a lost young man, she was way mature than him. She should have guided him but she blames him for cheating as if she was not cheating😂😂😂😂

[@edenbarton-bh4ns]

Exactly. The guy was probably cheating on her from the very beginning of their marriage. She is very angry at herself and her husband and taking it out on the other woman.

[@breezeh1127]

She is the one left alive. There is no one left on earth to blame. She is 50 percent responsible but will get 100 percent of the anger because it had to go somewhere.

[@Vegan4life11-11]

the woman he had the affair with is a trip. she said there was nothing good left in him so why was she so in love/obsessed with him. Why would you sleep with someone you think of that way?

[@dawnchetty1497]

Because she was a cold woman herself

[@perfectlyimperfect9129]

12:23 Listen to her acting like what she did was not absolutely disgusting!! She is trying to play it off like she didn't do something unforgiveable ! She's not Special if it wasn't her it would've been someone else because that's what type of guy he was . 16:46 It wasnt his wifes fault for what he did! 20:15 The cheater is REALLY SOMETHING ELSE! 21:19 Horrible things happen when you mess with someones heart and head,She was the cause of her husband doing what he did !! She didnt have to cheat with someone elses husband, Shes far from THE VICTIM 25:21 You dont have to remember what you have said if your telling the truth you have nothing to try to remember!! Candy is awfuly worried about what Ashley is doing !! ? 🤔 Emmitt didnt force Robs wife to cheat with him.

[@PamelaLyness]

It’s actually possible that she can’t remember the event because she’s blocked it out. This is a trauma response to a traumatic event and it’s very common.

[@Katie-sf7jt]

@@PamelaLyness Are you talking about the adulteress? She knew exactly what was going on. A woman without ethics and decency. She didn’t block anything out.

[@vickikay54]

Well Kandi, it actually does define who you are.

[@joannturner1453]

Emmit (although he is no longer here, he felt he was right ruining his wife and kids life), Rob, nor Kandi are taking responsibility. The three of them represent what this country is about, putting the blame on others.

[@vb9043]

What a victim card Kandi throws. What a classy wife

They both did. Ppl have affairs a lot. And guess where they meet? They don’t call it work husband or work wife for no reason.

[@melilunera]

Emmet is dead and now he is a Saint. Both were cheaters and liars.

[@barneydegourlay5181]

Exactly

[@hellokitty5971]

Kandi should just get over it and expect to be shamed for as long as Emmet isn’t around to be a father and husband, that’s how I feel about that 🙃

[@Katie-sf7jt]

Agree that she should be shamed for her role. Let’s be honest though, that cheating husband didn’t care a whit about his kids. If he did, he would have been an honest good man to his wife. What he did harmed his entire family. He let his lust destroy his life.

[@dancingfirefly7761]

I agree with you. She also failed to understand that this was a very public case because it was a murder trial. She acts like no one would've known anything about it if the widow just kept quiet! And the fact that she believes that she is a victim, too, is absolutely ludicrous.

[@brendaskywatcherb3613]

I really feel bad for the widow and her children. Such a horrible situation. I couldn’t imagine how it would be to hear a cop say your husband was shot dead and he was having an affair. It would be shocking. Pls God help her and her children find peace.🙏💔😢

Of course, Kandi wants to "move forward," she's indirectly responsible for a death of man, and the wrecking of a whole family's lives. Sorry, but "four years" isn't going to cover that up.

[@sarahm8695]

Honestly the fact that they got married 5 months after meeting is a red flag. 5 months is not enough time to get to know someone enough to know whether you should marry them. That's my opinion, at least.

[@quirkya909]

My Aunt (mom’s best friend) & Uncle met at 17 & 19. My Uncle told his brother “that girl right there is going to be my wife” & one month later he asked he asked her out on their first date. 3 months later she turned 18. He asked her parents for her hand in marriage….her father was okay with it, but asked that they make it at least a year first. Her mother said ABSOFUCKINLUTELY NOT & did NOT want to hear anything more about it (my aunt was the baby of the family). Little did anyone know, 5 months later their oldest child would be born. After the baby arrived, they married, 35 years later they are still married, still just as in love as they were at 17 & 19. In their grandparent era, and still act like two teens having their first summer love. My Uncle still to this day showers my Aunt with love & still to this day, tells the story of the day he fell in love and knew she would be his wife for life 🫶🏼 and she still tells the story of their first date and how she knew that night, if he ever asked she would say yes. All of their children, have happy healthy relationships with their spouses! That whole family is lucky in love 🫶🏼

The DEAD HUSBAND is the real culprit. He does cheats, he the one who initiated the cheating. So it's not right for her to only blame the mistress....what he has told her before he drop dead, no one knows...yup, candy also to be blamed coz she is a cheater too...but why don't blame your DEAD HUSBAND, Ashley???? Like he is so damn good as a faithful husband? To ASHLEY, JUST MOVE ON. WISH THAT YOU CAN FIND SOMEONE MUCH BETTER THAN HIM. 😊😊😊

[@Katie-sf7jt]

The widow did not let her husband off the hook. He is gone now though so she took the opportunity to address the adulteress. The cheating husband and the big horse of a woman he cheated with, would have deserved each other. He could have gone on as an ambulance chaser and she could have greeted new clients while wearing short skirts that were meant for younger girls. What a team that would have been.

[@cynthiaconway2114]

She is remarried.

[@nicolebiggs2566]

She says he initiated the affair, but we only have her side. I personally think she's an awful human being . If he did make the first move, she could have said No and she didn't she took part in it and I don't believe a word the disgusting woman says. Yes he had other affairs and he is at fault but so are the woman who had affairs with him.

[@hannahwhite2776]

It takes TWO to tango Hun. It's Kandi and Emmett. If you can't see that then you are crazy. If you look into this, she holds her HUSBAND accountable tons of times. Smh.

[@Katie-sf7jt]

The widow does blame her husband. She has given multiple interviews. The adulteress also deserves to be put in the spotlight because of her bad behavior. Dr. Phil provided an opportunity for the wife to confront the adulteress. This is just one piece of the story.

[@rayaofwakefield]

The cheating husband never really belonged to her. The moment he started to cheat on her, she lost him. It seems like she still puts him on a pedestal. He was a cheater and a lyer. Of course he didn't deserve to die, but I don't understand, why everybody only blames the other woman.

[@daisy1239]

I can never understand why the other woman is always the one to blame!!!! How about the husband and assuming that she came on to him, say "NO" I am a married man, I love my wife and I am not interested in you. Even if the husband is the aggressor the other woman is the one to blame.

[@freyamccauley]

It was the devil. We don't fight against flesh and blood. It's a horrible case of lust. The cheater is a cold hearted horror.

To borrow a couple quotes from the movie (Unfaithful), "A mistake is something that happens accidentally. Cheating and lying are not accidents, they are choices!!" & "Someone falls in love, and it always ends disastrously. They (affairs) always ends disastrously!!" THIS story is a prime example.The older lady looked BAD in this episode and said a few things that made her look worse (not human). BUT both her and the gentleman that passed away, played equal roles and share the blame.

[@caterinalopez5297]

What stupid comment

[@estherakinola9432]

what a senseless death. Resist the devil

[@Jennifer-jn2qw]

I understand the pain she's in. I was young and it was easy to blame the other woman, and to ridicule myself. But as an older woman, I realise it only takes one to cheat. But her husband was killed. That's a bitterness and a pain that will never leave her. She's pitiful and I only hope she finds healing. The other woman wasn't expecting her husband to murder him. But that's what affairs lead to. She shouldn't feel she had the right to deflect blame to the widow. She has way too much attitude for the one who helped this mess come to be...

[@sarazink2237]

The nerve of that woman to come out defensive and confrontational. She keeps turning it around to place pity on herself even though she is one of the reasons this all went down. Unreal!

The "wife" blames EVERYTHING on the "mistress" Emmit and Kandy were doing their dirt but, Kandy wasn't in control of what here husband did. Kandy and Emmit are to blame for their affair but, not for everything wrong with Emmit and Ashley's marriage. Ashley is is full denial. Ashley is blaming everything on her instead of their own problems.

[@hannahwhite2776]

Some of you need to learn how to look into things. Sheesh. It takes TWO, it was Emmett and kandi BOTH!! this is only a tiny clip of something. Ashley did hold her "husband" accountable and has moved on! This is absolutely both of their fault.

[@KH-br3ge]

There is just so much wrong in this whole scenario....my guess is kandi and husband cheated on each other(idk why i think that, but i do), the dead husband basically lived a double life because he could (wife very naive and trusting) and the wife RUSHED into another marriage without any retrospect of the consequences of doing it the first time?? Dear Lord, they are all just messy! Kandi did this for her own reasons, but the dead husband is the one who made the commitment to the wife. There will always be "kandis" lol Edit: just got to the part where rob cheated...I KNEW IT!! LOL

[@Claire-gv7pi]

The widow is remarried!! Who is she to sit on stage acting like a victim allowing her new husband to drive her old husband’s truck! That’s weird

[@Katie-sf7jt]

She was not doing that at all. The widow is a lovely dignified woman who went on with her life. I saw an update on her life and it looks like she has found happiness with a new husband. Of course she is going to have some resentment. Funny that you are attacking her. She was head and shoulders above the adulteress who was a woman beyond her prime dressing like an 18 year old. No ethics or decency. She is the one who needs to be criticized.

[@TriggerTravels]

You ruined your husband's life too.

[@justinterested9537]

22:27 did officers not have body cams at that time?? That's just one of the reasons officers should wear those cameras, so nobody can lie and say they didn't say or do something in the presence of officers. What's bad tho is officers can turn them on & off anytime they want and i've seen them mute them many times so if something was said and then later the courts depended on that footage and it was muted then what's the point if the camera if someone admits to something they said or heard or did etc and then there's no proof they said they did/didn't etc. once an officer clocks in for His shift his camera should be turned ON and it should stay on FULL VIDEO & AUDIO until he clocks outta his shift (obviously except when they're using the toilet)

[@amberwavs5421]

Kandi and Rob blame everyone but themselves. They both seem to think of themselves as victims; which is psychologically fascinating to watch as they take very little or in Robs case zero responsibility. Some advice for Rob, unless your lawyer believes he can successfully appeal your case, you are only hurting your chances for parole to continue to blame Emmet. Parole boards what to see you own your assault and take full responsibility. However it looks as if Kandi and Rob are 2 peas in a pod and will never take complete accountability without adding a "but" to it.

[@Zooeee915]

She doesn’t get to move on.. Regardless of his previous behaviour, the reason he died was because your husband found out… You have to live with the consequences….. sorry the fall out is to much for you 😮😮😮

I profoundly dislike Kandi, but I've got my suspicions about Ashlee: "I didn't know Emmett were having an affair.". Yes, right... Also, the fact that she moved on so quickly, hmmm...

And also keep going on what she has been through whilst making a new life with another man.

[@cg9616]

Victim blaming is shameful. Ashlee had just had a baby - so why would she suspect him? Sounds like a lovely girl who kept blaming herself but spread herself thin to please a cheating husband

She strayed and broke up her marriage and someone elses marriage

[@nicolettemoore7711]

Sounds similar to Abigail story in Bible she was married to a selfish arrogant fool and he died and she became King David's wife. Kandi gets no say or opinion on her finding a good man and how fast God places our steps and that was a God send

[@suziewong5305]

The widow is now remarried and should draw a line under her cheating husband and enjoy life with her new one. Sometimes holding onto the past isn’t a good thing. The new husband can’t feel great about it either?! I understand she was humiliated and hurt but it’s over and she’s got a good man now, just move on! Simply…Just don’t sleep with married people and none of this sh1t will go down!
