The popular reality series Love After Lockup season 5 premiered a new episode on Friday, September 20, 2024. This episode showcased the former incarcerated cast members adjusting to life outside of prison, with hopes of beginning fresh chapters alongside their partners. Unfortunately, not every participant managed to achieve a healthy lifestyle amidst these challenges.
During the latest episode, tensions flared between Joey and Kim when Kim discovered that Joey had been in communication with his ex-girlfriend for an extended period. Furious, Kim confronted Joey about the situation, but he refused to provide an explanation, opting instead to leave in her car.
In an earlier episode, their relationship faced a financial dispute when Joey used Kim’s debit card to purchase $1700 worth of car rims without her consent. Given these recent events, many Love After Lockup viewers urged Kim to reconsider her relationship with Joey. Fans took to X to express their disapproval of Joey’s impulsive actions and encouraged Kim to end things with him.
“Kim needs to dump Joey and raise her boys! You can be better! Cut off his phone!”a fan proclaimed.
“First off Kim, get your debit card back from that dude, return those rims, and second, cancel the engagement party and send Joey to his mom’s house,”another fan suggested.
“Kim, dump that loser. He’s so ridiculous,”a netizen tweeted.
A significant number of Love After Lockup fans criticized Kim for allowing Joey into her family life and around her children. They expressed their disapproval of her decision to marry him and deepen their relationship.
“So you know he’s cheated with everyone he’s ever been with and yet you’re eager to marry Joey? Hi, king, he hasn’t changed. Yeah, Kim, you’re delusional,”one user reacted.
“Kim knows Joey is messed up and still has him in the house with her kids,”another commenter stated.
“Damn Kim, what is your brain telling you about this little boy? He isn’t marriage material because he’s not working or making mature decisions. He’s not bringing anything to the table. All he’s doing is taking away. Leave Lil Joey Boi alone until he grows up,”another fan expressed.
“Joey’s angry at her for being sneaky… Kim, you gotta protect your kids, girl,”a user tweeted.
Meanwhile, some Love After Lockup enthusiasts called out Joey’s reaction once his deception was revealed.
“Joey really cussed out Kim, snatched the phone she paid for, drove off in the car she paid for, and told her to have a good engagement party… This is unbelievable,”one viewer remarked.
“Joey’s only interest in her is spending her money,”another netizen commented.
