Reesa Teesa joins Angela Yee, Jordy, and Akeem Woods for a candid conversation about life after her viral 50-part “Who TF Did I Marry?” series and the experiences that inspired her book.

Reesa opens up about the mental toll of going viral, the criticism that came with sharing such a vulnerable story, and why she now believes everybody wants to go viral until it’s time to pay the “viral tax.” She also reflects on the pressure she once felt to get married and have children, how that urgency influenced some of her relationship decisions, and why she had to learn there are worse things than being single.

The conversation gets into the men behind the codenames in her book, including Beavis, a man she deeply loved despite their lack of sexual compatibility, and Legion, who Reesa says admitted marriage was the only way he believed he could keep her. She also discusses dating as a plus-size woman, being desired privately but not always loved publicly, and reaching a point where she refuses to change herself just to be chosen.

Reesa also explains why dating apps are completely off the table, why trust now has to be earned, and how her approach to relationships has changed after everything she experienced. Plus, she talks about adapting her story for television, serving as an executive producer, being involved in the writers’ room, and making sure Hollywood can add its own “seasoning” without completely taking her story out of her hands.

From sex and self-worth to marriage, healing, dating, body image, fame, and learning to choose herself, Reesa Teesa keeps it just as transparent as the story that made millions of people tune in.
