This is probably the best interview I have ever seen. Co-parenting , co-existing ... is easier said than done. These parents need an award, a medal, something. Shout out to Rome and Jess for sharing their story. Amazing work Breakfast Club👍
Yes for sure. However when they can't or won't stay together this is commendable responsible maturity. Parents go their separate way for many different reasons. Kudos to these 2.
Powerful interview! I'm a clinical therapist specializing in trauma, and I must say, you have already started your healing process. God ahead and move forward. Praying you will see it through.
@@TSM-tv8hyI can't stand my bd ( he can really kiss my whole family ass) and im pretty sure he can't stand me either but when u are mature enough and live long enough..... U'll understand that not everybody " men"are bad or running game. It actually is some good men out here. And one day, eventually u ( not saying u personally) but u can have a adult conversation.
I said the same thing ; he remind me of the kid that getting bully in school ...even though he seem ok with he not;; that's just my opinion we really have to love on our men ; never know what trauma they facing inside; obviously sex is not the answer! he searching,,🙏…I ❤️ Rome&Jess
To have your baby's father on your show reminiscing about how yall got together, first dates and allat while pregnant by a new boyfriend is nasty work 😂
say this to my “mom” all the time, the reality is that they really hate themselves which in actuality causing them to hate the version of self that they see in us.
Then he added “I’m 20 yrs younger and still want & have time to change. You’re still doing the same shit at your age!” Baby if this isn’t the final nail in the coffin I don’t know what else qualifies as such 😢
@@Slim25-r2l they see the part of themselves they dislike reflected back to them & can’t stand it. But somehow expect their kids & everyone else to tolerate their flawed ways
MAAAAAN THIS ACTUALLY BOUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES...I SINCERELY FELT ROMES PAIN....AND IM SO GLAD THEY HAVE EVOLVED IN LIFE AND NOW STAND IN MATURITY AND IT'S BASED IN LOVE!!!
I wasn’t expecting to cry ever watching the show but when he took those glasses off & apologized it was sincere & I pray Rome gets the help he needs to heal. & thank you Jess for being there for Rome. Beautiful black love. 🙏🏽
@@tressamorgan1128no that was Narcissistic game, he knows Jess weak spots, and Lil shades off BS was some pulling heart strings BS 😂😂 Rome think he slick😂
@@mistahjay8598it could be narcissistic I guess. He’s played women all his life. I noticed he kept saying he’s young & has time but no one knows when they will leave this earth & the true judge ain’t accepting no excuses. I do believe he’s messed up though from his dads parenting to his mothers death. Hurt lil boy becomes a manipulator, cheater, liar, alcoholic, toxic, depressed hurt lil boy.
I love that he’s being so vulnerable and holding himself accountable. I feel like a lot of BMs and BDs can benefit from these conversations. It’s about the kid first and these relationships can be healthy✊🏾
If you ever decide to have a kid its not about you anymore. Its not about him anymore. Its about the child. Its obvious alot of parents dont care about the kids because alot of them grow up with only one parent. As long as nobody is abusive both need to stay for the child it can always work. People give up to easy
@@rzwitdauncut You’re so right. Do you feel like sometimes it’s also not being able to control your emotions enough to put your feelings aside and focus solely on the child? I feel like that has something to do with too
@@rzwitdauncut I tell my nieces this all the time - don’t be out here having a baby if you’re not done being selfish because once you bring a life into this world, it’s not about you anymore. Your focus is the baby - period✊🏾
Pregnant or not, Jess is so great because she brought him on the show knowing he can get extra help to continue his healing and show their community that positive co-parenting is possible.
My mom and dad are similar to them. They were never married, had 4 kids together, and a on and off relationship.. no it wasn’t all good but they grew to become best friends, and they’re really close in a friendly way. It feels good to see that
These are the type of interviews I love from the Bfast Club! As a black man, Rome's vulnerability and willingness to improve as a person is very admirable.
One of the best interviews, seeing a man being so vulnerable and serious about the situations he has been through. That’s a big deal. Most celebrities wouldn’t come up there and be this real. This is an eye opener for most men. Not wanting to be alone is a real feelings most MEN feel but won’t admit.
This one of the realest Breakfast club interviews ever!! BIG Shoutout to Rome. He spoke a lot of our truths. Black Men are better because this testimony! BIG Shoutout to Charlamagne too for offering a great therapist. Please take him up on that King ✊🏾👑
You gotta watch their old TH-cam series its hilarious.... One time she said he was drinking while driving with their son in the car, he said I wasn't drinking and driving, I was drinking before I came to pick him up and had to drive to come pick him up 😂😂😂😂
One of the best interviews y'all have ever had. Rome struggled to look Jess in the eye the whole time. Guilt, shame and anger are whooping him, but he was incredibly articulate and vulnerable. This convo was necessary.
This was one the most honest, most vulnerable, and most transparent interviews thus far. Thank you Jess and Rome for allowing this interview to be a safe space for people who are currently going through this, and a great reflection for people who have gone through this and are choosing to grow... ✨💛
@@idivas_TriciaWhy get pregnant? Why deliver the child? What's the protocol that led to the decision even to have sex other than your mating impulses being appealed to?
See how much better it can be when you take the fake hate out,take the fake attitudes out,take the bullshit drama out and just coexist and make the best of a situation with the person you once loved ? Anger takes more energy than happiness,especially when y’all fake angry
Some of us may be able to empathize without being able to fully relate, especially if we haven't experienced a broken home, an abusive father, a complicated family situation, or baby mommas. While I appreciate Rome's honesty and openness, our experiences are not the same. So yeah, some of us can empathize, but NOT relate. 👍🏾
I cried when he apologized to herrrr but this was the funniest , best interview in a minute ! One thing about it , I love their coparenting relationship 🔥
I love love love when black people heal. It's beautiful. Shout out to Jess and Rome for showing their vulnerbility and sharing their story. Much love to Rome for his honesty and growth.
This is a real conversation. A lot of black families do stuff like what Rome is talking about to their kids, nieces, nephews etc. A lot of black (American/West Indian mostly) Gen X and Baby Boomers sabotaged their kids and whenever the younger people try to speak to them to fix it privately, they deny, lie, cry etc. It's sad and this is difficult to say but we need to forgive them and do better in our own lives. Jess is a good woman for giving him the space to heal and share his experiences on these public platforms.
Co Parents are the first healthy village for their children. Parents CAN get along and be there for one another as well as creating a safe space for their children. I LOVE it.
I love their relationship. I use to watch their TH-cam series. This interview gave exactly what it was suppose to give. I cannot wait for the book, because I am going to purchase it.
Maybe this can help some of yall miserable babymamas and daddies instead of complaining look how to black people can co exist and raise a a child together with no drama THIS IS WHY THIS IS NEEDED WHY WOULDN'T HE BE ON HERE JESS IS GREAT FOR THE BREAKFAST CLUB
@@302ecumm, married people with kids get divorced and go through difficult custody battles all the time! The issues they went through doesn't just apply to people who have kids and not being married.
The way some people judge!? (Comments) Open your eyes, see the beauty in this segment! The smiles between them shared as they each throw a jab (joke) while telling their tale! The fact that they have a child that at the small age of 11yrs old (assuming that’s Ashton’s age) gets to experience both parents in times where so many children don’t! Especially my people, 🤦🏽. Are we rebuilding our community or helping to tear it down?? Just let me know so I can decide 😅
This was a really great convo. I agree with them. I think once feelings are not involved and you really want what’s best for the child, you can have a good co-parenting relationship.
I hear you. I also think its important to realize this is happening communally. I can't take on a man's pain one-on-one. I'm not built for it. But when he expresses so in a safe communal space. It is powerful and SEXY! We can take a new chapter back home where we discuss how to move forward. I cant emphasis enough how much I need for my home space to be non-toxic - its too much of a trigger from my own childhood pain
When he said he was the original Jodie🤔🤭🤣. I was like…. if I remembered correctly, the character Jodie from Baby Boy is not the claim to fame. 😂 Kudos to them for having each other’s back & co-parenting lovingly. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I wish it was longer! I learned so much! Amazing interview, with so much transparency:). As a black man who grew up without my father around I felt his pain very deeply. But it's so awesome that he is trying to write his own narrative and be the father to his kids that he never had. Shout out to Jess and the BC for making this happen!!!
His Mother died and his Father betrayed him. This is so Sad but I can relate. My Mother spent all my College Money that I saved from age 12-17 and the MONEY my Dad gave her for my College Fund. I got a full academic scholarship and left and never looked back. My Father and his Family supported me. I graduated and she tried to keep my Diploma after my Graduation Dinner. She took pictures holding it up. When she got ready to leave, she picked up my Diploma to take Home with her. I was not rude but I told her, I earned this without your Help and this is Mine. She was shocked and I took it out of her hands, hugged everybody and they went home. I had my own apartment, state job and car. She did not help me do anything but she helped her Other CHILDREN that did not do anything with their lives. They were not my Father's CHILDREN. My Mother had Dementia and she only wanted me and my CHILDREN around her. I took care of her until she died because the ones she favored stole everything she had.
I have no words....an absolutely touching, loving, and evolving black excellence parenting and friendship! God bless them both, their child, his children, and her upcoming one! A beautiful bond! 💙🙏🏽♾️
We routing for you Rome! I love their relationship. This was a really great conversation & Im glad Jess used this outlet to share their highs/lows. I’m so happy for Rome for being transparent & vulnerable bc a lot of men can learn from him & Im glad he’s holding himself according. I love how she includes him on every level. I pray that he is able to heal from the trauma of his past.
42 and one of my bffs is my only child's dad. Most everyone I know shouts us out on how we co-parent. And given our young, rocky, silly relationship. We do great by our now grown daughter. He's in a relationship as am, I. So to see them get along like this isn't new territory for me, in any way. I applaud them 👏🏾. We have mad respect for each other and love and take care of our child. 🙌🏾🔥 Keep it up ya, your children will thank you for it❤
I love them. This is how it should be after the relationship doesn’t work. It should never be hate between two people who once loved each other especially when they have a child together. The child should be the first and top priority
Loved the transparency and vulerability of Rom. Many people can relate to his story. He is very emotionally intelligent and I praying for his healing journey. I look forward to reading Jess and Rom's book when it comes out. Awesome interview!
Very good interview, a lot of people can take a page from them. I know a few that have navigated thru co-parenting successfully. Praying the continued success of everyone and beyond.
They have a great relationship. So many people are used the I hate the other parent narrative. So this was a breath of fresh air. Glad to see the love can see exist without a title.

Healthy Coparents are gems! My parents got divorced when i was 6 im extremely thankful that they decided to do what was best for them while also looking out for me. I couldn’t imagine how much differently my life would’ve been if they stayed together and never got a divorce
Jess and Rome are a mess in the Best way... 🤣🤣🤣... This took on a very serious tone, and it's so okay... I'm glad Charla is there to share his experience with therapy... Stay on the path Rome... You're a very likable Spirit.
It's great to see people outside of the entertainment industry on here and have real conversations about what the average family deals with. While we enjoy the peeks into the lives of celebrities, they can't really relate to us. This was an interview that most viewers and listeners could actually relate to.
Wow...I was done watching you all..but tuned in and boy oh boy...this was extremely powerful. Everyone NEEDS TO HEAR THEIR STORY. and the maturity of Jess is out standing.
Jess said my baby was sitting on the floor on a blanket and the cat was looking at him like he wanted to eat him 😂😂😂😂😂

Keep it up ya, your children will thank you for it❤
When Jess told Envy to not talk about houses, I almost died 😂😂
I love them. This is how it should be after the relationship doesn’t work. It should never be hate between two people who once loved each other especially when they have a child together. The child should be the first and top priority
Nahhh
This is beautiful!! Many parents have not & will never reach his type of co-parenting situation. I love this ❤ Blessings y'all
I think Rome needs his own show frfr
Dope and necessary convo!!!! Well done 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
They talk the same yo that’s craaazzyy!! 😂
Edit: “tell da truufth!”
This was important for our people to see and hear. I appreciate y’all’s growth and vulnerability.
If I had therapy I would want 2 therapists. A man and a woman to get both perspectives.
Yup I was just thinking that’s what he needs
This honestly, interview of the year!
that's was one of the best Breakfast club ever
This was actually really good yall!
Loved the transparency and vulerability of Rom. Many people can relate to his story. He is very emotionally intelligent and I praying for his healing journey. I look forward to reading Jess and Rom's book when it comes out. Awesome interview!
This was a great interview
Very good interview, a lot of people can take a page from them. I know a few that have navigated thru co-parenting successfully. Praying the continued success of everyone and beyond.
They have a great relationship. So many people are used the I hate the other parent narrative. So this was a breath of fresh air. Glad to see the love can see exist without a title.
Healthy Coparents are gems! My parents got divorced when i was 6 im extremely thankful that they decided to do what was best for them while also looking out for me. I couldn’t imagine how much differently my life would’ve been if they stayed together and never got a divorce
Baby daddy being ur best friend while pregnant with baby daddy 2 😂😂😂😂

Lol what? Why, what did you find?
@@tere898If only you knew
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Jess and Rome are a mess in the Best way... 🤣🤣🤣... This took on a very serious tone, and it's so okay... I'm glad Charla is there to share his experience with therapy... Stay on the path Rome... You're a very likable Spirit.
It's great to see people outside of the entertainment industry on here and have real conversations about what the average family deals with. While we enjoy the peeks into the lives of celebrities, they can't really relate to us. This was an interview that most viewers and listeners could actually relate to.
I thoroughly ENJOYED this conversation.
Wow...I was done watching you all..but tuned in and boy oh boy...this was extremely powerful. Everyone NEEDS TO HEAR THEIR STORY. and the maturity of Jess is out standing.
