On Sunday, January 12, 2025, Married to Medicine Season 11 released Episode 7, titled Mean Girls Gala. It showcased the ladies questioning Phaedra's capability to raise $100K for Jackie's Med Gala. Phaedra, who had previously assured Jackie that fundraising would not be an issue, found herself cornered when Heavenly accused her of worrying Jackie with her dubious targets.
Heavenly was convinced Phaedra could not reach the promised target and would eventually have to write a cheque herself. However, despite Heavenly's concerns, Phaedra remained confident in her abilities. She believed she could deliver since she had experience raising funds for other causes. Consequently, when Heavenly pointed fingers at the Married to Medicine star, she replied:
"I'm not sure what she's talking about 'cause baby, I'm more on time than FedEx. I always deliver promptly."

Simone surprised Phaedra by disclosing that Heavenly was appointed as the "co-co-chair" of the Med Gala. When Phaedra told Heavenly that she could take her position if she wanted to, Heavenly refused, saying she did not have the $100K like Phaedra said she did.
"My cheques will cash" — Married to Medicine star Phaedra responds to the cast's doubts about her abilities
When the ladies gathered for Heavenly's son Zachary's going-away party, Toya requested Heavenly to take accountability for her actions and apologize to Contessa for the "mama comment." While Heavenly said she would try her best to make it up to Contessa, she refused to make promises like Phaedra and "then not deliver."
Phaedra listened in disbelief when Heavenly revealed Jackie complained to her about the little help she received from Phaedra regarding the Med Gala. When the Married to Medicine cast member further demeaned Phaedra for promising a high target, the latter said:
"We'll get it and if I have to give out of my own money, I'm not letting no b***hes like y'all be acting I ain't gonna do what I said I'm gonna do."
The ladies got offended by Phaedra's comment, wondering why she looked down on them since they were not only on the same income level but also as qualified. Regardless, Quad insisted they contributed $2500 apiece to help Jackie and Phaedra reach the $100K target.
In another segment of Married to Medicine Episode 7, Phaedra told Lateasha that she was disappointed with Jackie and her behavior. Recalling the events of the going-away party, Phaedra wondered why Jackie gossiped about her to Heavenly instead of coming to her directly.
Soon after, the ladies gathered at Jackie's Med Gala, hoping to have a good time and raise enough money. While speaking to the cameras, Phaedra stated she was confident about having a $100K cheque by the end of the night and proving the cast members wrong. She soon started collecting money at the live auction, saying it was not her "first rodeo."
After the auction, Jackie, Phaedra, and Heavenly headed backstage to calculate the funds raised.
"We need a $100K tonight and b**ch, the math ain't mathing. I think that Phaedra going to have to write a f**king cheque tonight," Heavenly said.
She was confident Phaedra had not reached her promised goal. Heavenly wondered why they hadn't agreed on a more reachable target like $25,000.
Jackie revealed that the ticket and auction sales earned them $53,340, leaving them with a deficit of $46,660. Upon hearing that, Phaedra said, "I got it," surprising both Heavenly and Jackie. When Heavenly mentioned it was "a lot of money," the Married to Medicine star confirmed it would not be a problem.
Jackie thanked Phaedra for contributing the rest and treating it as a "small change." She hoped everyone had a friend like Phaedra. Despite falling short, the group donated $100K, with Phaedra's assistance, to help reduce maternity mortality rates. As Phaedra signed the cheque, she said:
"Like, I told them at the lake house, I got a $100K. My cheques will cash. That's nothing. I have jobs. I guess we're all in a different tax bracket. Let's just say that."
Married to Medicine Season 11 is available to stream on Peacock.
