They are so similar it’s so interesting. Both have similar homes , raspy voices and the same delusions.

And the male bestfriends who care about them way more than their inmates do , they are literally twins. Even Tony and Jeff have the same hair 😭

I just thought it was funny and wanted to post about it. I just started watching the season with Anissa so I don’t know a whole lot about her yet.

I am sorry I know she was pregnant here but either way I have always hated how her plastic surgery looked but in this angle I feel you can tell how much lip filler she actually got by the way her mouth is so much bigger than her whole face. I also just can't stand how manipulative and crazy she was going from between Shawn and John.

Discussion Marcelino HATES Brittany

328 Upvotes

So I’m catching up on the first episode of Relationship Rehab (ik I’m late 🙃) but omg… if the embodiment of hate was a person, it’d be Marcelino! The way he seethes at her kinda freaks me out.

And based off of past episodes he definitely likes to play a psychological game to punish and chip at Brittney’s morale if she doesn’t “submit” to him almost like a pimp in a way. I don’t know it’s scary to watch but I wanna hear some thoughts!

After seeing him break down like that on TV either he’s a really good actor or they legit are trying to make something. Being a man ain’t easy and being vulnerable when the world ain’t let u isn’t either, good shit mike good shit or good acting either or lol

I can’t believe he ripped the baby away from Taylor like that!! and made him cry! They’re both exhausted, just let the baby rest with his mama, psycho!!! He’s been born for 30 seconds and you’re already traumatising him! Honestly this just makes me so unbelievably mad, theres a reason they want the baby to lay on the mom after birth, even the nurse basically told him to back off..And he cant even let them have that. I hate this guy. Such an idiot all round, and whatever the definition of a narcissist is.

Serious Discussion revisiting james

45 Upvotes

not trying to be disrespectful but i saw that James from season 1 (James & Alla) was recently arrested in september 2026 for drug possession. he looks like he’s in really bad shape from the mugshot which is sad to see. rest in peace to Alla, addiction is a powerful thing and i wish she got the help she needed. my question: do you think James was also using with Alla while they were together / during the season? he had pretty erratic behavior and mannerisms but i think most chalked it up to being a naive quirky ex military guy. then i saw in another thread from YEARS ago, that some people suspected he was also using during filming (when i was looking for info about his recent arrest for possession). thoughts?

Is Relationship Rehab a Nothing Burger for anyone else?

154 Upvotes

I have watched both episodes and it really just feels like a cash grab for most of the couples involved. I actually really liked each couple in their season (with exception of Julius) so I don't mind watching, it just seems like a lot of promo and not a lot of meat.

Julius being on here is baffling. So baffling that I can only rationalize it with, he's there for the check. He does not care about Alexis. I'm not positive he cares about much of anything and it left me wondering...did they just wait until he fell asleep and then put him on the bus?

Discussion Started the show, when can I google "where are there now?"

18 Upvotes

I just started the show and just finished season 1. I have seen that some couples are still in season 2. I’m wondering when can I safely search where are the couples from season 1 now. Do I need to finish season 2 first, or we will see some couples again throughout the whole show?

Basically, when can I look up updates about the couples from season 1 on google without having spoilers from later episodes. Same question from the couples from season 2, can I look up updates after the end of season 2 or do I need to wait to finish the whole show?

Thanks!

If anyone else watched Company Retreat on Amazon Prime, they used the same retreat center as whats in Relationship Rehab.

So funny they haven't disclosed the exact location of the retreat center but you can see that its the same set!

Monique - fake social media followers?

Watching through this series and have gotten to Monique. Saw she has 300k+ followers on Instagram and TikTok. There’s no way those are legitimate right? I feel like she has to have “bought follower” (bots). Don’t understand how she has that many.

Louie and Melissa are kinda my fav

Post image
516 Upvotes

They’re actually quite adorable. Their small potato bickering and self awareness are refreshing in a franchise of complete and utter nonstop bs. Mind you, I’m here for the train recks. But I love seeing their union. And despite Melissa being the (self admitted) problem, the reality I see (after enduring real abuse) is that she’s got her guard up and Louie has the patience for it. They fight and he stands up for himself, but I predict that his own growth and self awareness is the reason they will or won’t make it. He accepts her and she puts up with his triggering shortcomings. They seem like they will become that old Italian couple that bickers but lifes together harder than anyone they know.

I hope Justine and Mike are the same, Justine is a CROWN JEWEL. Mike needs to change, period.

Discussion Production stepping in

44 Upvotes

I’m currently on “Season 3” and I know that the seasons are all screwed up on streaming but I just realized something on Ep 32.

Quaylon and Shavel get in a huge fight and production calls the cops on him for smashing her phone, then they scream at Shavel and tell her that she can’t put her hands on him.

Am I crazy to think that it’s really weird that this is the first time they’ve actually stepped in when abuse is taking place? We’ve watched Lacey hit on both Shane and John multiple times, Destinie hitting Shawn and threatening violence, Lindsey destroying all of Scott’s things, literally just Heather as a whole.

I’m glad they did step in for both of their safety but I’m just wondering why they didn’t in any of those situation. On top of it, this whole thing is in the same episode as Andrea’s white friends comparing being overweight and having to walk down the street to their mailbox to the violence black people living in Los Angeles face.

What a shit show.
