I've seen Gary talking about cheating on her and making jokes of it... the adult kids aren't talking to him because he did their mom wrong. She's only snapping now because his comment makes it seem like he doesn't know why the kids are upset and like he's done everything or like they need to come to him.....As a father who broke up the family is on him to fix. She was simply saying she's tried to help, he isn't some innocent bystander.

[@camilogomezkeep2324]

I know Claudia has his own personal history with Gary and his ex, but at the end of the day. the guy cheated and betrayed the mother of his kids.... People need to understand than when one does so, the children also feel the pain and sometimes even worse.

[@MichaelJones-yx4zv]

He went on tv and did a full interview insulting her and the kids. Then be mad that they not talking to him. Trust and believe there's more to the situation then the one side he says

[@CourageUnderFire87]

The father NEEDS to do more AL! It is not Kenyas job to fix a broken relationship between his children! Gary needs to fix the relationship!

[@waltermitchell768]

What else can he do he trying he paying for stuff and being told not to even be involved or what not .. The man is not a deadbeat dad ... he wants to be there... he admitted to his faults that's all he can do ..right he never said Kenya did him dirty

[@nellie15]

He has tried and in this instance THE MOTHER made it worse. He had to legit spy on his kids from far to just see them. We didn't forget that SHE was the one who went on the net and made it messy. He has been clear that the marriage wasn't working and tried to leave a couple of times, he took accountability on his cheating.

[@joannebaker4925]

How can he fix it when she is using her relationship with these young people against him. There's only so much you can do.

[@angelaeniola2513]

Please pray for healing with this family period! ❤️❤️

[@muzikmistic]

Because of Gary's job, he was largely an absentee Father. Kenya was raising the kids on her own. When the kids found out he cheated on their Mother, they asked why he had time to cheat but not time for them. He didn't have answer and that was the beginning of them questioning him as a person and as a Father. (Allegedly)

[@waltermitchell768]

But .. the man was making a living so the kids didn't have to struggle that said ... The man is trying to be a father including one he didn't father . Outside of that all he said is he wants to be a dad that's all

Ima say this cheating not good rather it’s a man or woman if a woman cheats on me I’m not going back to her and no I never cheated then with him the money and fame went to his head and he seen attention he got drawn to it and he feel into temptation but even when i get up I will never cheat on my girl bc she with me while im down and women like dat is hard to come by especially in my generation unfortunately but if a man finds a good woman and with him thru ups and downs thru financial ups and downs not just when a nigga up but when a nigga down as well bc many wanna come when y alr up and treat a nig like 💩 while he down and it’s lame but overall all im saying is cheating is unacceptable and uk if u feel like u can’t be faithful just have an open marriage, open relationship, a poly , or be fwb so nb won’t get hurt

It’s weird ..that Gary . Family ..mother ..father ..stepfather …and now his ex ..wife and kids are not talking to him ..Gary you the common dominator …

[@ebbyc1817]

this is very unfair, throwing his dysfunctional birth family into the mix, that's like saying if someone is born into a poor family, and ends up creating a poor family, they are the common denominator.. He's responsible for his kids. His parents are responsible for him.

[@private9260]

This whole segment is trash and sickening. His children are adults. They were raise primarily by their mom due to his work and schedule. He betrayed their entire family unit with the cheating. Putting it out there that they dont speak to him was a subliminal to blame her. She is not keeping them from him. They were hurt and betrayed. She helped build him up, and then gets treated like yesterday's trash.

[@talishak100]

That part, they saw what happened and didn't like it. Kenya can't make them sit down and talk to him. He has twins now I think it may be a little longer for reconciliation ijs

​@@mbembaleba Maybe....you're at the wrong spot.

@@daynaram381 maybe, but explain to me how a father cheating is a "betrayal" to the kids when the said father provides for them?

Nah, you’re just making excuses for bitter baby mamas who intentionally stand in the way of their kids having a relationship with their dad. She married a white man but she is hell bent on her kids have the cliche black experience of the father being separated from the kids even though he wants to be there. She’s selfish and messy.

Didn't he admit he cheated?? He deserves to get dragged. He can't say anything about her because HE CHEATED. Smh you guys are very biased, didn't mention the cheating AT ALLL.

[@relientkenny]

he never cheated. he said he wasn’t in love with her anymore and they separated and he went and got with someone else and she’s got upset and called it “cheating”

[@teedee643]

Yes he admitted he cheated multiple times actually!!! Market 11:06 exactly and admitted to running from her as if it was a game to him in order to avoid being served in Cali so he didn’t owe her 50 percent. Also his kids are older. He is laughing and basically mocking how he was and the divorce. The interview was disrespectful of how he acted. He even texted her that he wanted a divorce as the servers were on their way. The only reason he didnt go in social media was because he was ducking from being served and blatantly said this in this interview. Of course she was pissed during this time. She was blindsided!

[@cynthiadavis9917]

Claudia conveniently made this story about her

[@Michelle-cn9zp]

I can understand why Gary’s ex wife assumed that her cheating man was cheating with another woman he had lunch with. What a peculiar scenario.

[@brianmiller5955]

None of Claudia's comments actually addressed the topic. What she is upset about has nothing to do with Owen and his kids. Kenya lashed out when things first happened, but she has been silent ever since. And she wasn't wrong to take things public because she was a stay at home mother and Gary was playing games with the money. I don't blame her for that. What I can say is that she didn't even trash him in her tweet. She said she offered suggestions on how he can repair the relationship with his children that he hasn't taken and that he hasn't respected their boundaries. Gary is going around making light of his stepping out on his family and he's surprised that his kids don't want to have anything to do with him? Perhaps, if he were building bonds with his children rather than galivanting with other women around the globe, he wouldn't have lost his kids when is marriage came to an end. That's on him. Not his ex. That said, Al is dumb and so is Armon. There's nothing new there. Armon is a terrible addition to this show and it's getting harder and harder to maintain interest in it.

[@munab3666]

Sorry wait WHAT? He cheated on her and she is the one who needs to do more to help him access his kids???? He. Cheated. On. Her!!! Come on guys. She doesn't have to do jack. And Claudia's position is more about what happened to her than that.

[@yayits1990]

These kids are grown. They don't want to see him. End of story. The kids are grown. If they don't want a relationship they don't want one. People act like the kids don't go through the problems or the divorce with the parents.

I think Claudia and Al are wrong. 1st, Kenya responded to what Gary said on Club Shay Shay. It wasn’t just he wants to see his kids. 2, those kids are GROWN and their mother can’t force them to see their father. We don’t know what she has said to them and she is NOT to blame. 3, HE CHEATED and betrayed the family and purposely made the divorce difficult by trying not to give her anything(his admission). 4, it is completely on him and upto him in repairing the relationship with his kids. 5, Gary played in Kenya and his kids face with his interview in Club Shay Shay! Period.

[@Moneystayswithme]

They don't have children & don't know what that dynamic is like for either parent or the children. Speaking on things they know nothing about.

[@selinakyle2368]

Taken out of context? You did an entire rant about it? Obviously this had struck a nerve with you.

[@imani6938]

I disagree. CLaudia is ALL LOUD AND WRONG. Talking about how you don't speak to your kids... IS TALKING ABOUT YOUR KIDS. They don't want to hear how their father makes attempts to speak to them when they are not ready. Stop brining up your kids, PERIOD. KENDRA IS RIGH! SHE PROBABLY TOLD THIS MAN TO stop BRINIGNG THEM UP on public platforms! Gary was wrong, and here comes another woman WITH NO KIDS, talking about how he didn't do anything wrong.

[@lisamoonstrike5613]

Exactly

[@BriteEyes1]

Gary states he wants a relationship with his GROWN kids. His ex wife says, hey I’ve given you some suggestions as to how you can do that. PLUS I’ve been cool with you. SO if Gary hasn’t tried the things Kenya suggested, is Gary REALLY trying to forge a relationship? Or did he say what he said to Shannon Sharpe as a ploy to gain public sympathy. Claudia I understand being mad Kenya drug you into their mess, BUT you going on and on about it will cause people to give you the side eye 👀.

[@BimRen246]

His post was about him and his children not about her.

[@thatgirl4567]

I like Gary Owen, he’s hilarious, but what’s not funny is going on a divorce tour from podcast to podcast, talking about running from the process server so you don’t have to give kenya half and laughing about cheating on kenya. I remember on one of the podcast Gary went on he spoke about times, he was supposed to be meeting up with his kids, but because he was avoiding the process server, he had to lie to them and reschedule the next time they would get to spend time together… so he had an opportunity to have a relationship with his kids but he chose his money over quality time with his kids. Classic case of opportunity cost. Gary chose to run around the United States and leave the country To dodge the process server, and it cost him his relationship with his kids.

Once again they obviously didn’t listen to his numerous interviews after he stopped running and lying (Admittedly ). He admitted he cheated multiple times. Timestamp 11:06. He also admitted to running from her as if it was a game to him in order to avoid being served in Cali so he didn’t owe her 50 percent. Also his kids are older. In this interview he is laughing and basically mocking how he was in the marriage and during the divorce. The interview was disrespectful of how he acted. He even texted her that he wanted a divorce as the servers were on their way after leaving for a gig and her thinking everything was ok. The only reason he didnt go on social media was because he was ducking from being served and blatantly said this in this interview as well. Of course she was pissed during this time.

Claudia should not want nor need an apology no one believes that as HIS friend that she didn’t know that he was a cheat.

Armon is missing the point...gary has been instructed not to bring this to the media and he keeps mentioning them and making him look like an innocent victim. Kenya is right. Stop mentioning this man. Didn't Gary say he didnt cheat? Now he is saying he cheated? But he is still a victim? If I was his child I wouldn't want to be involved either. Why would he drag her? He was the one who cheated throughout and left her for the other woman. Also, tread lightly, remember your show almost got cancelled for the bashing of black women and yall replaced the old gay with a new gay. Leave Kenya alone, she has every right to addresses someone who mentioned her children

[@alexc.8344]

Gary's kids are grown! After a certain age it's no longer parent and child relationship, it's adult and adult. And as an adult, if you break trust, act immorally, and display a lack of integrity I have a right to go no contact with you! Gary proved he is all the above and if his grown kids don't want to communicate with him they have the right to do so.

[@carmellem6813]

Isn't it possible that the kids don't want to see, given the fact that he cheated on their mother 🤔 It's not her job to facilitate a relationship between them.

[@Ellew9837]

So he states he lied until the divorce was completed so why wouldn’t she think he’s lying about Claudia or her friend . Messy ,loud and wrong to tell her she’s wrong. The children are old enough to make their own decisions about their father regardless of the mother makes an effort to reconcile w the father.

[@poeticpoems1234]

Claudia if you were his friend or at minimum a mere acquaintance, you would mind your business publicly. There is a way to speak on this Tea in a less "Karenie" and personal fashion. Seeing how you speak on someone whom you claim to know, family and former wife with such personal disdain and disrespect, I can see at minimum why his adult children do not wish to engage with him as HIS connections seem to be awfully messy for them. Not trying to insult you, I, for the most, like you but you may be revealing inyou, something you may not want to. Js.❤

[@TruthTarotReadings]

[@AprilHatten-hs4mh]

The caption of the video says he speaks about his infidelity in his marriage, yet that's not what was discussed. Yall found a way to shame his black ex wife. Friend or no friend he cheated on this woman and laughs about it.

[@louisehancock324]

You have to be in the middle of this type of situation to understand the relationships of child and parent, especially adult children. Mothers or fathers don’t have to brainwash children against the other parent because actions speak louder than words or money. I was really angry with my X, but tried to keep that anger away from them. His actions were what caused the distance between my youngest son and his dad. I always made my son call his dad for special occasions and just call and talk, try to spend time together, but when time spent together is minimum, seeming lack of interest and how my son perceived the treatment of his mother, no matter how much I and my oldest son tried, it took ten years for my son to rebuild the parent child relationship. Just because Mr. Owen’s did not talk about the break up, doesn’t mean there was not negativity happening on his side as well. Nobody knows what’s going on behind closed doors.

The adult children do get to choose to be in or out of relationship w their dad. HOWEVER, mom shld have explained to the young adults that if you don't want a relationship w dad, you don't want a relationship w his financial resources. Now, let's figure out how to handle this tuition without him.

Gary is going to cheat on this new woman and will have a repeat relationship with his babies, the twins. Gary is a sociopath and makes it seem like he's the victim.

Al IT IS NOT A WIFE'S JOB TO "MEND", "FIXED" or "FOSTER" WHAT SOMEONE ESLE BROKE!!! All she can do and should do is leave the lines of communications between the father and the child open! THAT'S IT! I see too many men expecting the mother to "make" the kids talk to their father or rearrange her schedule so that the dad can see his kids! You cannot "make" kids love their absent parent! THE WOMAN IS NOT THE ONE WHO BROKE THE MARRIAGE when a man cheats! All Gary can do is keep reaching out and keep trying to build a bridge and his ex-wife needs to stand down and remove herself from a man's relationship with his kids!

[@lisamoonstrike5613]

He doesn't have to drag her, apparently. He can obviously drag her by lying about not knowing why the kids aren't talking to him. They're not speaking to him because he lied to them about being "on the road" yet got time to cheat. On The Breakfast Club, he said he lied to his daughter about not being able to see her because he was trying not to get divorced papers served to him. He admitting to lied about everything but acting as if he doesn't know why they won't speak to him. Apparently no one gives a flying f☆☆☆ how his ex feels however he need to at least stop lieing about not knowing why the kids are hurt and refrain from dragging their mom by talk about his fake SSA concern for his children...

[@msworthy_27]

I went to his show this weekend and he clears your name Claudia. He went into greater detail regarding their split, but it’s on his kids at this point to accept his olive branch. I’m sure her bitterness is a factor in them choosing to ice him though. He now has a set of twins, and he is not trying to Brian McKnight his older kids. Just keep trying Gary.

[@user-pf9ud8hj6p]

as an adult, in my early 20s I highly doubt their divorce has to do with how the kids have cut him off. He must have been a trash parent. If it was just the cheating im sure they wudve mived on by now. Afterall they are now adults who know how relationships work. He either did something to those kids or he was an absentee father. So in their minds they mind want him to stay absent. Children won't have a bond with an absentee father so its easy to cut him off now that the he left their mother. He needs to respect their privacy as Kenya suggested and stop crying to the media about his kids. He starting to sound like Cryrese. They dint have to talk to him if they dont want to. Like you said they're grown and its their choice. He needs to stop forcing the issue and leave them alone

Armand laughter and grinding when Claudia was ranting about Gary and his ex-wife made this segment funny even though the situation with Gary's children is really sad.

SHE STILL MAD..... IT'S TIME FOR HER TO MOVE ON!! THOSE KIDS ARE GROWN!!!!!!!!!

[@therealbomiangel]

Hmm 🤔💭... Can the same thing be said about Brian McKnight, because the Roots of his problem with his children stems from his divorce and disagreement with his wife. And I I understand why the same energy isn't giving to Owen like McKnight. Lastly I think Queen Claudia was a little hard and kinda harsh and went too off on Owens wife, while also admitting she may not know the full story. But when it comes to Brian McKnight this same playbook used in judging Owen was thrown out of the window. I'm not supporting Brian McKnight but I just know, something must have been done to him or some kind of betrayal that makes him so bitter, but people are busy judging without at least considering some parts of his reasons for being mad.

Sounds to me like these grown ass people need to stay off social media. If my guy cheated on me yet took care of his kids I’d let it go. I wouldn’t have a relationship with their father but I wouldn’t prohibit him from having a relationship with his kids. My daughter father is a dog yet I don’t discuss that with her; he’s the opposite regarding me. My daughter is grown and is dealing with his mess.

[@mik2627]

I will NEVER stop loving my kids and trying to see/be there for them. It takes some broken people to tell this father to just give up. May you be the last of your generation.

[@jaye5490]

I like Kenya, idc idc idc. We don't know what that lady went through in her marriage.

[@brownmol7]

how do you know that she is not doing that?

[@AngelDollGypsyy]

no 👎🏿

[@chrisw.5823]

@claudiajordan was wrong in this segment. That woman was betrayed. The children chose to side with their broken hearted mother. She didn't know what or who to believe. Not sure how this segment became about you. It's funny how youre mentioned in a few scandals tho. Is everybody lying?

[@shurondaadkins5944]

I agree because I think a lot of the times it is the mothers doing when they want to sock it to the fathers because one they probably don't want to be with the mom and she can't accept that so she hits it where it hurts and that is to take the child and that's not fair because it took both of you guys to make that baby so it should take both of you to raise that baby or the children

[@yayits1990]

BS you got men out here who would use the kids through the process and lie to or on the mother. Throughout the whole relationship, ain't done crap for the kids or spent time with them, then come break up I want my kids! Men are a joke. So far as Gary's situation, Those kids are grown. They made their decision. Kids go through divorce too. You'll act like the mom is the sole communicator of all issues as if kids can't tell or feel. Apparently, he cheated and the kids were hurt, How would you feel if your dad is your guy and he disrespected your mother and broke up the family? Let's be real. It ain't always the momma.

[@shurondaadkins5944]

@@yayits1990 okay yeah you got a point I can agree with that because it's true it's not always the mom's fault

[@brittanybritten-padilla3246]

Ya claudia, love you girl but you were wayyyy to defensive in this segment. Kinda suspicious. Gary effed up! I like him but he did his wofe and kids dirty point blank.

[@bradleymarshall6717]

Yall don’t know what conversations have been had in the back end and for all we know this statement he made to the world for her was him gas lighting her. I think Yall are being bias and one sided!

[@Myopinionmattersthemost]

I think a parent should let their childen know they do not have to oick a side ans our marital relationship iw not the same as the parental relationship. Claudia is defending Gary because hes her friend, if this would have been a boqck man who wasnt her friend she would be all on the ex wifes aide.

[@natashalyons5488]

Claudia , AL and Armond are all wrong. Gary is wrong period. Claudia's girlfriend probably was pushing up on Gary. Let them handle their family business, the kids are grown and can't be fooled by wack excuses

[@wealthadeakings8840]

Thank you Queen for speaking the truth about Gary Owen. He stayed in the marriage for his children. He loves his adult children, his two biological children want nothing to do with him. His stepson is in communication with him.

[@CKB-vi8nw]

Stop taking up for Gary Owens he was the problem obviously. Cheating is a serious problem in a relationship. It’s like bringing other people in a marriage. And the reason Gary couldn’t say anything because he was cheating. She doesn’t have to do anything it’s up to the kids they are adults. Kenya is not wrong. We don’t see what is behind closed doors.

[@Wordalways]

I've never liked him and don't agree with the black pass we give him.

[@j.m.5620]

Claudia you were & still are too involved in someone else's marriage problems. Gary is classless and Kenya was always too good for him. Claudia let your man talk about your relationship problems with another woman, and see how you like it. Shame on you. Boundaries please. Respect other women.
