Welp! The Sedation Has Worn Off Mama Joyce

April 6, 2014 by tamaratattles 55 Comments

Kandi Burruss Tucker

That didn’t take long. Mama Joyce is already out giving interviews about Kandi’s wedding to the press. She recently gave an interview to toofab’s Brian Particelli where she admits she wants to write a tell all book (Oh Lawd) and says she can’t wait for us to see how great she (Mama Joyce) looked at the wedding. The Tuckers

She talks about how Todd allegedly danced around signing a pre-nup right up until the last minute telling Paricelli, “I got a little pissed at the bridegroom the night before this wedding. He kind of held up on signing the prenup and didn’t come to the rehearsal dinner because he didn’t want to sign it. His mom said she didn’t see no reason for him to have to sign because they were in love. He was the one who didn’t have a damn thing, but that’s another story.”

Mama Joyce admits that he eventually did sign the pre-nup and that the whole drama was for storyline.

When asked if she was happy for Kandi, Mama Joyce replied, “Long as she’s happy, that’s the one that has to be happy.Doesn’t make no difference if I’m happy or not, she’s the one that has to live with him. I  did everything I could do. If she’s jumping in the river with sharks, she’s gonna get chewed up. It’s not about me, whether I’m right or wrong. People show you their best when you’re dating them, so if she’s seeing the best now, the worst is yet to come.”

Congrats on your marriage, Todd. You may also win the worst mother-in-law in the world contest.  Let’s hope some of this is just to stir up publicity.

    I think that Kandi should tell her mother that if she writes a book about her she will have to look for a new place to live and she is cut off from the Kandi money train.

        I kind of think it’s very hard to be “tit for tat”. First, Kandi has taken care of her mother for decades. I would be shocked her mother received alimony for life, plus social security monies! Since her mother EXPECTED to live in Kandi’s 2nd house (things got ugly and very public by then). So Kandi gives her OWN home paid off where she lived for years. Seasons ago, Kandi had a conversation with Kim that she OWNS her home, Kandi gave her mother Kandi’s home. Then her mother re-decorated the home to make it “her own”! Kandi’s own home was beautiful! So where does her mother think she’s getting money? On the reunion show, Kandi found out about her OWN mother opening credit cards, gambling, etc! At this point, Kandi has supported and let her mother control her life, speak poorly to Kandi’s daughter! Kandi has tolerated YEARS of dis-respect her for YEARS. Unlike her mother respecting her daughter, nor thankful for ALL her daughter has done for her mother for YEARS! Poor Kandi, hopefully continues with counseling whereas the counselor can help Kandi to understand that she can “show respect” to her mother AND NOT CONTINUE THE FUND and pay ALL her living & social expenses! If a “tell all” book comes out – it better be worth hurting her own child & grandchild to the core. Just like Kim’s parents —ALL the nasty press, court papers, etc. It hurt & humiliated the grandchildren, destroyed their relationship with their OWN daughter, no relationship with their son-in-law and NEVER seeing their 4 other new grandchildren! Kandi’s daughter is much older, sees exactly what her “grandmother” is/was doing (plus many, many, many private issues that haven’t made public yet).

        If there is ever a ‘tell all” book; I certainly would never even borrow it, let alone pay money from a woman who has lived off her daughter for years, given a paid off home, money to redecorated. I wouldn’t make a nasty, controlling, threatening nasty “mother/grandmother” make even MORE money! With a gambling problem, she will be out of money earned quickly! At that point, there are “homes” or very least Kandi should hire someone to pay just enough minimum livable bills to live & not a penny more AFTER any book sale money runs out! Even at that cut-off point, maybe her “mother” would learn her daughter does NOT owe her a penny and maybe a slight chance learn to be thankful! Me, if a “tell all book” at my expense ever came out! Not a penny more would ever be given to her again! There is NO reason her mother couldn’t be working a JOB! If she can gamble and on home shopping club — her mother needs a job to support her ‘fun” money! Her daughter doesn’t even HAVE to give her a cent but she has been emotionally abusive for years–that us why ‘no one else can let it roll off like she can”. Kandi is very talented, works very hard, smart with many profitable businesses that should be left and/or spend on Kandi’s children! Her mother doesn’t/shouldn’t be “taken care of”; worse, expects/demands to be supported, who would hurt her own daughter/granddaughter at any length and gets more vicious when in her mind a “threat” to her money. Then she attacks, wants to set up, screams at her friends with threats of violence! Sadly, no one deserves it. Of course, Kandi, who earns, works for everything doesn’t deserve it –worse, they way her own mother destroys her friendships, love life, granddaughter!

    Kandi has had to take a lot of grief over her mom. I just can’t see her going along with a storyline like this. I would think her wedding would be too precious for a bunch of made up nonsense. Regardless….I hope those two are off the charts happy. They deserve it.♥

    I said before MJ was acting a fool to guarantee a strong storyline for her daughter. I’m going to stick with that. Now that Kandi and Todd are married I expect MJ to continue with her foolishness, not only for Kandi’s storyline but being seen on TV on a semi basis probably has her ego blown up. I bet her old lady friends are psyched they know a “celebrity”. lol.

    I can’t believe Mama Joyce called out Kandi’s 30 lb weight gain on tv. I don’t think it is made for the show, I think she is really worried about losing her meal ticket.
    Todd was very nice to MJ and explained his job situation. I don’t know any man who could have handled that situation better than Todd did.
    I like Todd and hope they are happy in spite of the drama.

      and then it seems that it was a blantant ass hole statement..I think Kandi has slimmed down considerably since dating Todd… she might gain a little now that the festivities are over and they head into real life, but prior to that, this whole season, Kandi has been svelte…

    I pray that Kandi n Todd REMAIN HAPPY. That said, the Therapist needs to be overseen by a Pyschiatrist. Mamma Joyce is being hateful. She needs help. Let her daughter be happy and hands off her daughters Marriage. Momma Joyce is lookng like an attention seeking asshat Bully. She needs Medication. I will keep Kandi in my Prayers n Todd n Riley…and even Pray that Momma Joyce finds her own life n Man. Shes lonely….and needs something to do besides meddling n making trouble. She has no right even as a Mother to do this to their lives. She needs help and needs it quick.

Todd, seems like he really loves her. I hope Kenya is blessed with Love n a lil Baby too, soon. She really cares. I think shes mean back to the other ladies n puts them in their place. Since, Sheree is gone. Someone needs to check Nene. Shes becoming a Egotistical bl. whar If shes so fabulous darling…she would work hard with the opportunities that shes been blessed with and not make excuses for her failing to followthrough. She needs a trainer and a good diet if she hopes to stay in the entertainment industry. No one wants to see a sweating mean out of shape mess. If she wants to stay in front of the Camera. She needs to tow the line.

I think you outed yourself there in that comment about who I “laughed at” I merely reported on a court case about a site that used pictures that a site was attempting to sell without permission.

      I’ve also NEVER asked anyone to “click my ads” and have admonished my commenters for doing so. Something tells me that your idiocy will only serve to encourage it. Sorry about your blog sucking.

They were unhappy I said he was “the best place online for reality tv gifs” despite that verbage being taken from his tumblr http://realitytvgifs.tumblr.com/ and many links to his blog. That person said “DO YOU THINK HE MAKES THOSE GIFS FOR OTHERS TO USE?” Um yes, dear. That is what he does. He makes fabulous gifs for people to use, as long as they credit him.

    That person also said, “He doesn’t like it when you use his gifs!!!” Which translated to I used his gifs and did not properly credit, so I am pissed you got to use his RHOA on GAGA ones.,..

    I think Mama Joyce having a problem with Kandi’s men is real, but I am not sure her reasoning behind it. Does she have one of those no one is good enough complexes moms usually reserve for their sons? Or is she worried a husband would mean less money to be shared with her? Even though I think Kandi has plenty to go around, I lean towards the latter. I think it is pure greed

    I think we like watching all the Messy People on TV, because well just maybe we can see a portion of their Characters in ourselves or maybe one of our friends or Crazy family members. I took to Twitter n asked Dineva of it was necessary to be ugly n mean 24\7. No response. I get that he brings it because hes a charwcter made famous on youtube. I do believe that he took it too far. But, I digress. We are all imperfect. Its life. It is hilarious…..and each one of us has a bitchy diva in us at times as well as being super nice too. I like em all and I know most of it is probably amped up to bring the Numbers and ratings. If we disagree…that is fine. Having differing opinions is what makes the world go round. 😉 I lost a Cat due to tragic circumstances. I fell to my knees n sobbed uncontrollably when she was ran over. I remember Cootiebug everyday. Funny name for my silly kitty. I know when we all pass on one day…our beloved pets n loved ones will be there to greet us. But, while here on Earth we must live life to the fullest! Thats what will make it all worth it overall. We all face hardships, push them aside and know that there are great things n people in this world. We can be one of them, if we choose to do so.

    Someone needs to help Kandi understand that you can tell your mother to shape up, without being disrespectful to her.
    she is so fearful of being disrespectful to her mother, that she allows her mother to get away with stealing her happiness.
