    You have so much strength. Everyone always believes when women say they’re being abused but when men try to stand up for themselves they’re shut down. Thank you for speaking up and I hope you heal and hope this shows other men they can stand up for themselves.

    Point of correction
    Your career isn’t dead
    It is just beginning.
    She might take your car and your business and your joy not allowing you earn a livelihood how you are used to…but she can never take your spirit
    Your spirit will rise like it has always done, you’ll stand and you’ll be happy once again
    You’ll do well
    Give it a year… the algorithm will start pushing your videos to the right audience.
    You’ll be back better than before
    You’ll prosper and
    You’ll be fine
    We love you ❤

      @@summerbreeze7832 I absolutely disagree!! Why can’t Jamie speak about what he’s been through, because it shows Nikki in a bad light? The truth is always freedom! Why should he have to hide how he feels about his life with his family, and she gets to go on like nothing happened. I think you need to check yourself because there’s definitely a double standard here. As an abused person I totally understand how Jamie was trying to protect the kids. Nikki needs to own up to her actions and get help, for herself and the girls. If it’s never happened to you how can you speak louder than the one that’s been through it.

    Jamie the best advice I have for you is, when you speak to her, be emotionless, do not discuss anything outside the kids, don’t be nice, don’t be mean, don’t show ANY emotion!
    People like this feed off your emotions and use this as a way of controlling you. Please do this. It’s called stonewalling and it works! You are a kind person and deserve way better than this but don’t give her anything she doesn’t deserve. She don’t deserve ANYTHING from you.

    Nikki was a toxic parent and that phone call he recorded was her alienating him from his kids bc of her insecurities and abandonment issues. Thats the true reason why he got 50/50 custody. Judges don't play those games anymore and he documentated everything. The drama she caused the kids, i can only imagine. I'm no longer a fan of Nikki. I hope time heals all and parents these days need to realize it took two people to get the kids here and it will take two parents to raise them. Thank you for telling us your story.

    I'm glad you're finally speaking out, Jamie! I hated that all of the negative assumptions were about you as people speculated what happened to your marriage all these years. I always suspected it wasn't you. You deserve to say your peace! As a woman, I fully support fairness and you've shouldered being the victim, the secret keeper and the public relations representative for both of you. You've protected her and it's cost you your peace. Being silent and diplomatic has left you heartbroken and broken in so many other ways, evidently. No more. Your children are beautiful and I want them to grow up loving both their parents dearly, but fair is fair. Speak your peace! I know you love her so I won't say what she sounds like on those phone calls. Whatever Nikki is going through, I pray God change her heart and have mercy on her because she's wrong wrong wrong.

    I’m glad that you are at least at a place where you can speak your truth and gain your power back. No one deserves to be prevented from seeing their children, especially in the way that you’ve detailed here. And no one deserves to be abused.
    I hope that you can continue to have the resolve that you displayed over the years in order to be in your babies’ lives. They WILL know what you’ve done. They WILL understand the love you have for them and they WILL love you back.
    CONTINUE TO BE VULNERABLE, especially if it is helping to heal you. At any rate, this content is SO necessary for others to see so that at least they know they aren’t alone.

    As a woman, I walked away from an abusive relationship. I paid child support, I help to pay the mortgage on a house I was not living in... I did this because of my sons who were still in the house. It hurt for years emotionally being away from my sons. Thankfully, my younger son now lives with me. I had to fight in the courts away and pay out a lot of money. Well, God restores. I am remarried, happily and God is blessing me in many ways. I lost it all, but God Restores. After 14 years of divorce, God has restored and given me back the years that were stolen.

    I’ve always thought Nikki’s silence about the reason for the split was suspicious. As much as I loved them as a couple, Nikki is the type that wanted to be treated like a princess 24/7. That perfect life she always portrayed was questionable. I’m so disappointed & hurt for you Jamie. You’re strong, you’re a real man. I truly pray that Jesus heals your heart.
    I also pray that Nikki heals for the sake of true peace between both of you.
    This is really sad. Y’all had so much potential. This is heartbreaking as you can never avoid each other because of the kids. It sounds like Nikki wanted to be a wife that is 100% financed which is fine. But that wasn’t for Jamie & it sounds like Nikki was determined to emasculate him till he gave in. Although she came from humble beginnings, she somehow had it in her mind that Jamie was obliged to give her fairytale lifestyle according to her terms & only her terms.
    Very shocked at how vile she is. Social media is the fakest thing ever!

    I've been following your journey for years, from the beautiful moments you shared with Nikki and your lovely daughters to the heart-wrenching struggles you've faced during this messy divorce process. It's truly disheartening to see a relationship that was once admired by so many end in such turmoil.
    I want you to know that I respect your decision to finally speak out and share your side of the story. It's evident that there are truths and perspectives on both sides, and as someone who believes in fairness and empathy, I won't be taking sides or assigning blame.
    Relationships are complex, and sometimes two people simply aren't compatible, no matter how much love there once was. It's a painful reality, but it's also a necessary one if both parties are to find peace and happiness in the long run.
    I want to commend you for your bravery in finally speaking out and sharing your truth. It takes immense courage to open up about the painful truths and the emotional toll this has taken on you. It's clear that you've been through a lot, both financially and emotionally, and my heart goes out to you.
    It's unfortunate that divorce can often bring out the worst in people, leading to hurtful accusations and using children as pawns. It's a situation no one should have to endure, especially when children are involved.
    I want to encourage you to stay strong and focus on moving forward, even though I know it's easier said than done. Healing from such a traumatic experience will take time, but it's important to remember that you are not alone. There are people who care about you and are here to support you every step of the way.
    I admire your courage in being open and honest about your experiences, and I hope that by doing so, you can find some closure and begin the healing process. It's not easy to move on from such a significant chapter of your life, but I believe that with time and self-reflection, you'll emerge stronger and wiser.
    It's important to remember that your daughters are watching and absorbing everything that happens, both online and offline. As they grow older, they may struggle to reconcile the public narratives with their own memories and experiences. That's why it's crucial for both you and Nikki to be mindful of the content you put out and the impact it may have on your daughters' well-being.
    I urge you both to prioritize open communication and cooperation when it comes to co-parenting. Your daughters deserve to have a healthy relationship with both of their parents, free from resentment and animosity.
    Please know that as a subscriber to your channel, I am here to offer my support and encouragement, no matter what decisions you make. You deserve happiness and peace, and I believe that with time and healing, you will find it again. Keep your heart open to love and know that brighter days are ahead.
    Take care of yourself, Jamie, and know that you have a community of people rooting for you.

I know there are 3 sides to every story and that I also can't tell others what to do. However, I strongly suggest you not try to get even, and get help.

    Honestly, if you read the content of the message between Jamie and Nikki whilst he begs her to work, it just seems like two different people with different views on what makes life great. I can totally see why she didn't want to work. The rent was fully paid. She was in school to secure their future and already working doing TH-cam as a part-time job. It doesn't appear that Jamie really needed to work 14 hour days. Perhaps he needed a regular 8 hour job instead. At the end of the day, she was not wrong to feel he was money hungry and over doing it with work. And he was not wrong for wanting more money to build a future for them. Everyone who wants to marry should realize something important: No matter your attraction for each other, at the end of the day you must have the same values and goals--or else it won't work! I refuse to think of her as a bad person. As a married woman, I can easily identify with her struggle and perspective. This is why it's also important for married couples to hang out with other married couples...you. begin to notice patterns and realize, "hey, my husband does this too, my wife does this too"--just like yours....and it creates more patience within us towards our spouse....

    Jaimie, this is actually your best content in years since the break up. Because it's honest, it's genuine and truthful. You've made enough family videos that'll help any single dad out there struggling with the same issues. So you've made your contributions in that area, and that was great, but now you're done. It's now time to change directions and move to new heights. Honesty and transparency will bring the healing, freedom and breakthrough that you need to take you to the next level. So I definitely encourage you to continue making this type of videos because this is how you"ll be able to regain your lost identity and be your old wonderful self again. With regards to your ex, don't be bitter, be wise and cautious around her, while we join our prayers to yours: that God will help, heal and restore her, and give her direction! Oh, by the way, I also had a lot of social anxiety due to isolation, but driving Uber this summer for a few months, helped me heal and be my old self again.

I can only hope that for the sake of the girls that you and Nikki find common grounds for co-parenting and totally peace to move on in life in a positive way.

    This is really sad and I know women can be particularly evil when there’s a divorce in play. My brother is currently going through it. I will say that Nikki sounds like she has undiagnosed bipolar or other mental health disorder. She had been through a lot very early in her childhood so I truly hope she gets the help she needs before it’s too late. Kids deserve to be protected at ALL costs and not to be causalities in a parent’s pettiness. Focus on healing Jamie, it’s hard but you need to show up for yourself so you can in turn show up for your girls. They need a health and healed version of you. If your heart is pure karma will deal with her. Praying for all involved especially the girls.

I took him for child support, wrote post, tried to turn everyone against him bc my ego was broken. It took my mom may her soul rest to tell me that if I’m doing things out of spite nothing good will come out…there is a thing called karma. My kids were the ones hurting, I changed this man life. my kids father was basically homeless & couldn’t renew his driving license & jailed bc he was behind child support! I dropped the child support & we worked something out on paper. I pray things will change for u. 😮

    All stories have two sides. Everyone, even someone kind, can be provoked to the point of acting impulsive/violent. It looks like she wanted to invest in her career and Jamie wanted her to record makeup, or other type of content that the female audience was asking, it could bring money to the family and Jamie would be less stressed and work less. It looks like both did wrong, disagreed in many aspects and could not solve the issue as a couple.

It broke our hearts when it came to an end. Mental health is real and the children can feel when things are not going right. Your parents was an integral part of the family and show the family as a whole. The is now broken and it's harder to put it back together as they get older. They missed what they had with the whole family but they will understand that the love they have from both of parents are still good i pray that you will feel better soon.

    I hope your kids know how wonderful of a father you are and the efforts you made to be in their lives because the average man would have said it’s too much and left

      That’s what I’m saying, why would you want to stop your baby daddy’s bag?? That’s taking food out of your kids mouth, it’ll hurt them surrounded by a bunch of adults that are now just only scraping by.

    You poor guy 🥹. I’m so glad you have told the truth. I followed you for years and never knew anything like this was going on. You can still find a way to follow your dreams. Take one day at a time.
    Parents should NEVER use their kids as weapons in a break up (or ever). You both love them.
    You Jamie deserve a better woman. It’s so hard to leave an abuser when you love them but you did and did so with incredible strength x
