So nice , a step mom is being credited like that!

[@marybethjordan8520]

He wasn't joking when he mentioned bringing a 25 yo into the marriage

[@elsamyqueen6302]

I felt it too, he probably has one already.

[@Kuttie03]

He sure wasn’t. Smdh.

[@ultimatelym]

He's checked out. She's his sugar mama. Poor lady.

[@suade9940]

He is comfortable and taking advantage of her because she is reliable and responsible.

[@goodchick88]

Sounds like he's going through his midlife crisis.

I know he's not out here making jokes on people's appearances 😒

[@karenleftwich2357]

She is a beautiful mature women she deserves better and I'm sure she can get it to

[@mickeyj6921]

That step-son gets it. His loyalty is to what's right and not to the person who gave birth to him. She said, "Thank you for standing up for me Jake." Jake said, "Someone had to." That broke my heart because it further explains how far the father has stepped away from him marriage for his comedy side hustle.

[@erikaflowers6055]

Oh NO! The joke about her breasts??? Many women are sensitive about their bodies especially concerning weight or age. He knew better! Oh my goodness I'd be absolutely crushed! All trust and intimacy would be shattered for me. He's taking her for granted for sure.

[@mogsonmushrooms]

If he backed it up talking about his own saggy balls it might have not been so bad.

Narcissists know they hurt people's feelings. She could get up there and talk about his droopy man's parts and scruffiness....I mean, EW... And he's thinking he is all that, and he is all that and a bag of sh*t.

[@faitaccompli3350]

Thank you!!!

[@sunnydered5545]

She's funnier than him from what I saw from this episode, she should start writing material. There's a way to talk about your SO and experience with them without resorting to the cliché of "wife bad" with no nuance to it.

@@d820m if you need to make jokes at the expense of someone else, you're a loser and you're not funny. she doesn't need to develop anything, especially because i'm sure if she starts joking about him being ugly or fat or bald or having erectile dysfunction, the jokes won't be funny anymore. grow up

A comedian??? What did you think was gonna happen???

[@devonlovemusic]

Comedy is tough! He doesn't have youth on his side but he could still be something. That needs to be something he does on the weekends until things blow up more & she shouldn't be doing everything alone that makes people resentful of your dreams.

[@asjames32]

he needs to pack up and go, there is so many women out here leaving their marriage to pursue their careers and happiness. he had a good job for a long time so he wasn't no bum. go live your life so

[@thesweetlifeofgbaee]

a lot of comedians have this story. who knows might be famous in a few years and they aren't together. life happens sorry there relationship had to suffer

[@arayaklove]

He’s now a bum. Girl run

[@bennystone5281]

Funny ass family 😂

[@tearapowell3780]

They can go they separate ways if they are not going to support one another. People grow apart. Let him go live and I go live no one has to deal with that. If u stated he was working hard and u was working hard but ur one son spends 5000 that’s absurd! Nobody wants to be apart of the jokes and being made of fun of but I also know all comedians throw the family under the bus unfortunately. Let it go and move on to the both of them. He probably is going through a mid life crisis but at the same time if u want to go try things that’s your right everybody isn’t going to understand. They talking about the old man immature but all these grown ppl living off them

[@karenjones7794]

Let that dude go live in a van

[@jadriangarner6374]

[@sunshine123221]

Work it out guys we ❤you sir if the comedy not working out move to preaching more family time divorce is not the answer 😢

[@DidNotMean2OffendYou]

Mmm mmm... i think they've just grown apart 🤷‍♀️ and that's okay. It seems he's just at that point in life, where he wants to enjoy the rest of his life while he still can. Tomorrow isnt promised to anyone. So you can plan all you want, but God has the final plan 🤷‍♀️ I mean it sounds like he's been responsible for a good majority of life, he's had the career, marriage, kids, and now wants to enjoy his life. Maybe do certain things, he always kept tucked away and never had a chance to do before. I dont know, i dont think he's wrong in anyway, nor do i think she is either. I think they just want two different things in life at this point . Sidenote; She only mentioned adult kids, and there are no little kids in the picture. So im a little confused, is she working to provide for the "adult kids" or na? I mean the two of them could possibly downsize, get a nice cute condo, and enjoy the rest of their life together. But hey, ive never been married 🥴

[@raphael6808]

She’s pretty uptight

[@JamesCraigWhoop]

MEN just know if you come on the show, do not come up light on money 💸💰 Judge Star will show you a level of respect that a cockroach under a shoe would look down on

[@tinajackson6875]

Comedians are there to make you laugh, stop being uptight. If you can't handle the jokes then don't go. It's just jokes, I actually love comedians. They talk about their life experiences. Duh!!!!! Wow, that's sad that he wants to give up everything to chase comedy. he should follow his dream but never leave your family. That hurt to hear, he's trying to recapture the youth he didn't have.

[@tyrellarnold8635]

Judge they are not perky they are what they should be for her age and if they are it’s the support from the bra. Let’s not act like something is what it isn’t to make someone feel better about themselves. She know they’re not perky but it’s not a problem it’s him making a joke about them to fathers for laughs. I was with her all the way u til that last statement. Judge Star be lying to women to make them feel better, enough, or worthy and that’s dangerous. You give people a level of confidence that will be demolished and cause them more harm internally when someone else tell them a hard truth.

[@RosalynnAnne]

I think The rest of us are aware that she meant for her age lol.

Nah! Tell them BOTH to get it TOGETHER! FINANCIALLY first! (Get new material)

[@Novakane78]

A motivational speaker that spoke for women once said that she had a man approch her after a conference. He asked her why didn't she speak on men. She said women are her focus and they have issues. He told her something that made her start focusing on men. He said "see my wife and daughters over there; they'd rather see me die on my white horse than fall off of it". That line about her putting into the retirement being hers, would not have flown if it were a man saying that. We men, can die on our horses but never fall off of them.

[@perfectlyimperfect9129]

You don't know all women to say that ! I actually love and respect my husband and I would do whatever I had to for him and our family.

[@Novakane78]

@perfectlyimperfect9129 I did 0 generalizing. I was speaking to Judge Jones and the most experiences we men have had. Not every woman would, but I, in my lifetime, have had several women treat me this way (the rather see me die on my white horse than see me fall off of it).

[@marcusmelancon3426]

Well I’d be complaining to if one day my husband leaves his good job for comedy and now I have to work two jobs just to keep the lights on because he’s not bringing in any money

[@JamesCraigWhoop]

Should the dad drop a day job for a night gig, no. Until he can get Chris Rock crowds its 9 to 5 and they agreed. I think Judge is dead wrong when she says the wife makes the money and therefore should have the priority and control. NO even when a man makes the majority, its considered the couples money. For some reason a working woman is seen as going above and beyond while a working man is seen as being bear minimum. Double standards for a day and age of pushing for equality

[@thegills21able]

Man if the 👠 was on the other foot y’all be understanding why she did what she did Mang that judge need to be removed she act like the problem happened to her and she stand on sister hood man put her in the 🗑️

[@Novakane78]

Agreed

[@JamesCraigWhoop]

I totally disagreed w the Judge stance on money. When either contributor makes the money it goes to both of them. She said the husband had no say when the bank was dry by the son ordering the DoorDash. So much for equality
