The transparency from each couple served as an eye-opener for me in ways that my husband and I can make improvements in our own marriage.
The Fredericks talk this season of "Couch Conversations", becoming NY Times Best Sellers, love, loss, and more.
Although I’ve always known marriage is hard work, a lot of what I expected for my marriage was met with reality.
If therapy has taught me anything, it’s that mental health is a practice. It’s not something you do to get it over with, but rather something you will continue to strive toward as life comes at you.
This accident could have broken them, but they survived as a couple, and found strength they never knew they possessed.
Get all the details on the season premiere of "Couch Conversations," the couples for this season, and our hosts, Kevin and Melissa Fredericks!
There was not a deep conversation about it or a well-thought-out plan. I just knew that I was overwhelmed and burnt out.
Years of therapy not only improved my life as an individual, but it has also strengthened my marriage.
If we had pursued a relationship when we first met, we would not have had our four beautiful children. We probably would've been no good for each other.
“Black Love” returns one last time for our series finale tomorrow at 10/9c on OWN and the Black Love+ app presented by our friends at Target. As the co-creator and director of “Black Love,” it is a bittersweet day, but overall, I’m thrilled to close this chapter right now. Fam, let me tell you why! My husband Tommy and I film every single interview for the Black Love docuseries together, just the two of us and the couple sitting across from us in their home. We intentionally wanted to create an intimate space for these conversations. We didn’t want a large crew or even a production assistant staring at these two vulnerable people potentially creating a distraction or causing insecurity. We fostered a judgment-free zone where we also offered a glimpse into our own strengths and weaknesses and failures and uncertainties as a couple. After seven years and around 250 interviews, we wanted to bow out while y’all still love the product and while we still love doing it.

On the Couch: The Story of Black Love Codie & Tommy on their wedding day. One month after I met my now husband, Tommy, we discussed this idea I had to create a place where Black love stories live. That was Fall 2013 and we started filming Black Love in Fall 2014. We were engaged. We married in 2015, became parents in 2016, and had twins in 2018 — all while fulfilling this incredible dream of capturing and sharing our stories. Our lives require a lot more now than it did in 2015 when we did that first interview (my close friend’s parents in Novi, Michigan) and now we want to see what other ways we can celebrate Black Love — in all of its forms! Today, we run Black Love, Inc. which started with the docuseries you know and love in 2017 and now includes env-blacklove-blstagepr.kinsta.cloud, the Black Love Summit, the Black Love+ app housing countless digital series about love and relationships, Black Love Podcast Network with seven unique podcasts. Y’all watch the show — we are committed to challenging the way people think about relationships, unconditional love, and self work! To have a successful romantic partnership, we have to be paying attention to how we love ourselves and even our friends, parents, and children. We are your hub for all of it. As you watch season 6 of Black Love (and then watch "After Love" immediately afterward), we hope you enjoy every second of it and share with a friend. But most of all, we hope you see something that reminds you there is no one way to do this relationship thing. Alignment with yourself and your partner is what matters and that only happens when we lead with love. That sometimes looks like compromise or setting boundaries or being more patient than you thought you could be or just letting go of your lists. Black Love family, over here, we believe that all of us deserve love. That means YOU! Believe it, claim it, and join us on this journey! “Black Love” and our official after show “After Love” is now available on OWN and the Black Love+ App to stream all past seasons to relive the memories and learn from all of these amazing couples! Remember, the show is ending, but Black Love is FOREVER!
We haven’t figured out if religion makes sense for us, and that’s okay. If anything, I hope we can make space for more spiritual practices that make us feel connected to God.
"Black Love" reminds people that yes, love and marriage requires work, but as with almost anything, if it’s worth having, then it’s worth fighting for.
Marriage has blessed us in many ways. We have been more fruitful partners, winning as a family and in our careers because we are both aligned.
They met on Myspace, and now they’re a viral couple capturing the eyes of Viola Davis and Taraji P. Henson with their powerful story.
It’s taking a risk for me! Pandemic and all, these couples found love (and life partners!) in lockdown on the BLK App.
I'm big on manifestation and then praying over the things that I manifest. And I think now that I've gone at my music career being on autopilot, the only thing that I'm truly missing off of me is the happy ending.
As we’ve grown, so has our connection, and it’s now stronger than ever.
Marriage is challenging enough without the added strain of medical issues. But Dionne and Andre learned to support each other through it all.
Uniquely enough, though our love was cultivated within HBCU culture, our love story did not start at Hampton University.
