    Jay Williams - Iyanla Vanzant - StraightFromTheA

    It was just a few days ago that I revealed in a ‘not so blind’ item that Oprah Winfrey‘s OWN newtork would be pulling the plug on their ‘baby daddy’ themed show (click HERE if you missed that).

    [FLASHBACK: Newsflash! Jay Williams (Father of 34) Gets OWN Reality Show? ]

    The show was to be focused around Jay Williams, the Atlanta resident with 34 kids and 17 baby mamas that bared his baby mama drama on several episodes of Iyanla: Fix My Life.iyanla vanzant

    The goal of the ‘Untitled Jay Williams Project’ was to follow Williams as he worked to put his life and relationships in order with the help of spiritual life coach Iyanla Vanzant holding him accountable every step of the way…. but things didn’t turn out as planned.

    Jay Williams - Iyanla Vanzant - StraightFromTheA

    Having multiple baby mamas seems to be the norm nowadays and drama that comes along with all those mixed relationships would make for perfect ‘real life’ reality television.

    shawty lo all my baby mamaRapper Shawty Lo tried to bring his situation to mainstream a few years ago with ‘All My Baby Mamas’ (click HERE to watch) but his story was banned from tv after thousands signed a petition stating it was too stereotypical.

    [READ: Meet The Woman Behind The ‘All My Babies Mamas’ Petition… ]

    That being said, a rapper with several baby mamas is an issue but apparently a well spoken father of 34 isn’t. (insert side-eye!)

    Jay Williams from Iyanla: Fix My Life, the guy who had fathered 34 children from 17 different woman is now getting a shot at bringing his real life problems to the small screen.

    Williams story (which you can watch in it’s entirety?HERE) sparked several ‘Fix My Life’ follow ups and many suggested that it was his intent all along to secure his own show.

    Well… his plan worked.?Details + press release below… Continue Reading…

    Jan, 20 2015 | Written by ATLien

    skins
    Last night, The Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN) aired Bill Duke’s ‘Light Girls’ documentary, the filmmaker’s follow-up to his exploration of colorism, Dark Girls (January 19, 2015).

    Duke explores the pain, privilege and prejudice of light-skinned women in the new documentary, ?Light Girls,? which is a spin-off of ?Dark Girls.?light-girls

    [FLASHBACK: The Shade Debate: Are ‘Dark Girls’ Treated Differently? (WATCH FULL VIDEO)]

    The Black community once again addressed ‘colorism,’ and Life Coach Iyanla Vanzant was there to lead the way as she detailed how hurtful words and name calling affects younger people as they move into their adulthood.

    Diahann Carroll, Kym Whitley, Essence Atkins, Raven-Symone (who once proclaimed to Oprah her desire to not be ‘labeled’ any color) and more opened up about their harsh experiences as light-skinned black women.

    ?When I had my own show, I used to tan three or four times a week in a tanning bed to get darker. I did,? Raven-Symone revealed in the new doc in reference to her show, ?That?s So Raven.?

    Did you see the episode of ‘Fix My Life’ about the father with 34 kids by 17 women?? Well I’ve posted all 3 parts for those of you who missed it! I’ve also posed a letter one of his daughters wrote, speaking out about being on the show!

    [FLASHBACK: Bob & Sheree Whitfield Appear on ‘Iyanla: Fix My Life’ + Oprah Shares Thoughts on The Show… (FULL VIDEO)]

    Jay Williams a successful video producer in Atlanta, appeared on the season 4 premiere of ‘Iyanla: Fix My Life’ and the world just can’t stop talking about his story.

    Williams appeared on the show, revealing that he’d fathered 34 biological children with 17 different women. His oldest daughter is 26 and his youngest is 3.

    “I probably would have 200 kids if I didn’t use condoms,” he says.

    Williams says he never considered getting a vasectomy, either. “I don’t want one,” he explains, still holding the 14 dolls. “I don’t have a problem with what I created.”

    Iyanla traveled to Atlanta to help the father “Fix” his life and several of Williams’ ‘baby-mamas’ appeared on the show, as well as a few of his older children, to confront him about the situation.Iyanla Fix My Life - Jay Williams 1

    Amina Mosley, one of Williams’ adult daughters who appeared on the show, recently penned an open letter to Iyanla about the issue and asked me to share it. It’s a long read, and it’s clear that whatever ‘fixing’ to be done isn’t over yet.

        Simon Guobadia has filed a motion to dismiss the f Simon Guobadia has filed a motion to dismiss the federal defamation lawsuit he previously brought against his ex-wife, Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams.

The lawsuit, originally filed in November 2024, stemmed from Instagram posts made by Williams in July 2024 that Guobadia claimed falsely implied he suffered from erectile dysfunction. According to court filings, Guobadia alleged the posts were directed at him and caused reputational harm, emotional distress, and damage to his professional standing amid their very public divorce.

Court records show that on Friday, January 23, 2025, Guobadia filed a Motion to Dismiss the case in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. No ruling has been issued at this time, and the matter remains pending.

Guobadia and Williams married in November 2022 and filed for divorce in February 2024. Their split has continued to play out publicly through court filings and social media, drawing widespread attention.

Kenya Moore is still in eviction court, the Hair Spa isn’t generating business, and the questions are stacking up.

No eviction yet, but also no clear exit plan.  So why hold on so hard?

Is this about a potential Bravo return?
Or is it just cutting losses vs. storyline protection?

So when folks said it looked like a content creation space… were they really “haters,” or just early? 🤔
