Nicole’s “issue” with her half sister is what many experience in our community, where some family members blame the child for their FATHER’S actions instead of asking the right person the right questions.

[@IamT.L.Chappel]

Exactly!!!…I don’t do half sister or brothers…They are My Siblings Period!!!…Nicole is appears to be mean girl and reminds me of Tamar and not in a good way!!!…Too Me🙋🏽‍♀️

[@aaroncohoon5603]

U hit the nail on the head with this one ❤

[@misses9896]

Give Granny some time and leave her alone. I can see how she could easily feel pressured they keep bringing it up every 15 mins...😮

[@tyrasworld5675]

@misses9896 that's the red flag! What do you keep pressing me for??! As if you don't have your own funds/resources

[@wordsbygemm]

I agree! Plus Granny already said she wants to sell the land and split the money between her kids

[@MindsetOfMarge]

I love how OWN is bringing these shows that everyone can watch. My family and I use to love watching the Saturday evening like up with Sweetie Pies , Flex and Shanice, and that other show with all the kids lol

[@psychattack3381]

I am just so impressed with these women. This is some black excellence. Ima say this after every episode (hopefully!).

[@UchgbQkttz]

Chris is a great dude any person on planet earth would be lucky to have him as their spouse and friend Quita should remember that fact

[@paul734]

Facts!!!

[@latenahobbs6064]

😊

[@thelonetravelr]

The comment ice queen Nicole made about Chris was a low blow. Chris is just as much Quita’s family as they are. He’s her husband; furthermore, they have children together. If anything, he should be the closest person to his wife.

[@tyrasworld5675]

Nicole better work about HER husband

[@aliyaheubanks4477]

No it wasn't I get what she said yall just bent outta SHAPE she has a point

[@tiishaedwards8414]

Chris is not an employee. He is a contractor with limitations.

[@deelo111]

Please leave Granny alone about the land. It goes to G1, they worked hard to help their parents and deserve the inheritance

[@christina9095]

Your spouse is your family, just like your blood family can be gone just like a spouse. Her logic is odd to me.

[@Shayoyeye4525]

Exactly, they sure got that twisted.

[@misswages317]

She made me feel so type of why, I hope when I get married I want to be in love with my spouse and he be in love with me.

[@leandra5248]

​@@misswages317 I hope that for you too sis. What Nicole said was rude and toxic and that lady sat there allowing them to disrespect her husband like that. Her husband is her number one and is her family and it's sad that she sits there and let them say that awful thing. Yes family will be family.. but her husband is family.. they have a child together.

[@leandra5248]

Yes exactly and very rude and toxic. They really disrespect her husband. I feel they look down on him.

[@melissadiamond1268]

Y'all really be champions for husbands. I've noticed this with black women who don't have an obsession with married blk men

[@karlissaann]

I'm exhausted by this land selling sitch already.....

[@keishatowns9600]

That granddaughter trynna make sure to get a piece of that pie

[@sltgirl219]

I’m just tired of Jermesha talking about it. Like let Gma decide and talk then.

[@akimat418]

Me too

[@briteyesboyd4089]

She is exhausting gma keep talking about it

[@teeburdtalks]

I’m liking this show! I just hope it doesn’t turn into LAMH

[@ah4038]

lol it’s a good show so far , great cast

[@itsallgoodnewbusiness8168]

We all praying it doesn’t 😂😂 so far I’m liking it . I think as long as they show them working the business more than the family issues it won’t. As long as the family issues don’t consume the show.

[@vyxenthemua]

It will! I've noticed this is the new formula. They sell us on black love and black excellence and then the drama comes and takes over. It'll be 4 to 5 seasons of it going downhill. Just think about the last couple of shows like this. It never fails.

[@teeburdtalks]

@@itsallgoodnewbusiness8168 Yes, if they keep it a healthy balance of family issues and working the business it’ll be good hopefully. 🤞🏾

[@teeburdtalks]

@@vyxenthemua if they think these type of shows going to last with dark family drama without balance of the family business and resolutions they’re delusional. They should see we as viewers do not like it.

[@simplymejourney998]

That granddaughter needs to leave granny’s business alone, it’s for her five children. Point blank!

[@leandra5248]

I would love a tour of Nicole's house

[@sewblue187]

[@tonyawilson5714]

😂😂😂 I couldn't have energy like that so early myself. 4am hair appointment 😦... Absolutely NOT.

[@ayesierramist]

I’m with granny. Keep it for the kids.

[@pnice0610]

Same! It makes sense to me. She gives it to her kids then her kids can do as they pls.

[@kuronroland4211]

That hairstylist was doing to much 😂

[@virginiapurvis3917]

Queeta is right, they’re wayyyy too damn sensitive and Nicole is rude af

[@tebsm4783]

Granny is the absolute cutest! These G2s need to leave her alone about this land! It’s her land, her decision!

[@themadmillionaire]

There is a solution where they all would win G1 can get their inheritance now but also allow G2 to keep the wealth in the family, develop the land and increase the value for the family shares held in trust.

[@teeburdtalks]

Agreed

[@awalker8371]

Great idea. 👊🏾

[@mnm_7even79]

@themadmillionaire that's a great idea! I just checked out your chanel too, great content. I think you should review the show, it's on brand with your money topics ❤

[@Tasha-c2e]

Love it

[@psnnieshamarie2383]

G1 is refusing to sell to G2 specifically, which is weird. If all they want is their mortgage paid then what’s the problem? G2 should just buy the property and let G1 devour the money as they intended. It’s weird to want to sell but not sell to them.

[@stretchcitywellness]

So much fun. Thank y’all for having Stretch City Wellness a part of y’all ladies' night.

[@tyrasworld5675]

They talk about the g1s almost like theyre not apart of the family, like the "competition"

[@kevinparisinternal2032]

Feel sorry for Chris

[@virginiapurvis3917]

Why is she so rude to her hairstylist?

[@ImaniDMoses]

Looks like she's just generally rude...

[@ayandakhumalo8692]

She beautiful but cold

[@TheMwendaa]

Very cold

[@psychattack3381]

I don’t think she’s cold. She’s reserved and serious but she laughs when something funny is said. And her hairstylist was doing way too much and talking way too much at 4am. She said this was her time to relax and get herself together and the hairstylist was acting like she had ADHD. Too early for all that-just do my hair and be quiet lol.

[@keylacmckemp1309]

I personally am not my best in the morning. I need quiet for a bit. The stylist is family but being paid. Provide a professional service. That being said, she might just have a cold affect ingeneral.

[@tyrasworld5675]

Please dont try to sway Granny in any way about her property, the queen has spoken.💁🏽‍♀️ Nicole(i think thats her name) is hella extra, but shes interesting 🙃 Dont let this tv thing mess yall family up

[@WomenofDandy]

This is a great show I love it but why they be on Chris like he suppose to work for them lol it seems like he independent

[@hopesdaughter5947]

🤷🏽‍♀️ Ok I gave it 2 episodes, deciding not to watch more. I will mention though that Nicole is cold for the lack of wanting to go deeper. And she straight gaslighted her half sister with that fake crying. Everytime she speaks it's never pleasant.

[@akimat418]

She seems like she wants everyone to cater to her. Everyone!!

[@AmaKedador]

Nicole can’t take a joke 😂

[@nkhen_c357]

That is nuisance. Your husband comes first before anyone. It is that twisted mentality that ruins marriages. No one can speak about my partner like that...they wont even try it.

[@BritBrat444]

It’s the family group economics for me! I love it! I’ve been following Nicole’s career since I watched her on the Black Wealth Renaissance KZbin channel. Oh and she’s my soror. Oo-oop!

[@autobotdiva9268]

our g1's let the family property go to the city to despise us. it goes to private auction in october

[@pumpkin03]

Sorry to hear that. It's typical of selfish Baby Boomers.

[@mssunshne1962]

@autobotdiva9268 Im sorry to hear that. Did any of you G2s not want to buy it?

[@autobotdiva9268]

@@mssunshne1962 yes, my brother wanted it but the G1s with their forever complaining selves had lots of vitriol. i printed the packet for my brother to take to have it filed to stop the private auction. the house is delapitated after squatters etc and will need demolished. property taxes are $4000 behind. the G1s will find out after his name is put on the land. guess there will be more vitriol when that happens. built in 1890 33 X 115 LOT 75, 2 family house. hope probate goes good for him! im the paperwork/research/investing G2 out of the gang, lol.

[@keepupwiththejones1759]

I think its cool what they want to do with the property but leave yal granny alone she said what she said

[@TyishaYoung]

It’s okay show

[@ob2be1]

I wonder what are the G1s planning to do to continue to build the legacy and have a greater inheritance to give to their children. To me the G2s idea seems like a no brainer. What they’re proposing stands to benefit everyone greater for long term…why wouldn’t you want that 🤔

[@misunderstoodkj]

Um I agree with granny. She is supposed to give it to the next generation which is her kids. Then her kids can give it to their kids (the grandkids).

[@keylacmckemp1309]

Do they never stop talking shop? Do they sit down and talk about their lives, children, etc? Just about increasing their wealth even when they are relaxing as a family.

[@bippityboppityboo2u]

Seems like the show is more about them being a family empire so we will likely see more of the "shop" talk

[@briteyesboyd4089]

So y is nicole included and Keisha not was there dad married to her mom and had a affair but if so its still awkward that is a wall up because if the dad raised them both then whats the issue even tho they had separate moms

[@pumpkin03]

The G1's are all over 50 & most over 60. Why aren’t their mortgages near paid? They should allow G2's to develop the land.

[@leahgoddess8157]

The average mortgage is 30 years.

[@pumpkin03]

@leahgoddess8157 And most of them are 60 & up. Theoretically, they had these houses since they were in their 30s. Matter of fact, most Baby Boomers first homes were in their 20s & their second home came in their 30s or 40s. They at least 20-30 years in on those mortgages.

[@bippityboppityboo2u]

Might have taken out heloc loans over time, depending on the current value may still owe, could've been a big loan..who knows but them

[@jenbunny1984]

Nicole doesn’t have a beauty room, I feel doing the hair in the kitchen is unsanitary. 😬
