The creators of the Black Love series, Codie & Tommy Oliver, gathered Season 2 couples Devale & Khadeen Ellis and Ryan Michelle Bathe & Sterling K. Brown together to highlight clips from the season and share their own personal stories behind the on-camera moments.
“I had to stop talking to her because I loved her so much, I couldn’t stand to be her friend.” – Sterling K. Brown.
In a clip that didn’t air in the series, Sterling K. Brown & Ryan Michelle Bathe detail when Sterling — very awkwardly — told Ryan he loved her, even though they were just friends.
Ryan & Sterling not only with her family not liking him, but with Ryan needing to reconsider some of the ideology she inherited growing up, in order to have a happy marriage.
The wives, Ryan , Khadeen Ellis, and Codie Oliver discuss the ways in which their husbands have helped them grow as people. Devale & Khadeen Ellis also examine the role tact plays in marriage communication.
Q&A | The audience gets a chance to pose questions to the couples. Topics include expectations, love languages, accepting each other’s differences, and evolving relationship.
