The love triangle between Kate, Hunter, and Kaleigh in Love After Lockup

During her conversation with Leah and Ryan in Love After Lockup, Kate revealed the details about her role in Hunter’s life while he was incarcerated. She explained that, initially, she hadn’t supported him financially. She said that she did help him with a website that connected him with potential friends and women who could offer financial assistance.

However, Kate was reportedly blindsided when she learned that some of these women were also romantically involved with Hunter. She disclosed that, during a video call with him, she saw another woman on the screen.

It is worth noting that the other woman was Kaleigh, Hunter's fiancé. However, Kate stated that Hunter told her he was willing to end his other relationships for her once he was released from prison.

In a confessional, Hunter spoke about the differences between the two women and said that he was attracted to Kaleigh's personality.

"She turns me on. She likes to have phone s*x a lot. Katie does not. She's very against all that stuff," Hunter noted.

Kaleigh, Hunter's fiancé, also became part of the equation when she called and confronted him about not being financially independent. During their call, Kaleigh expressed her anger but still believed in Hunter’s promises to take care of her once he was out.

Amidst all this, Kate’s friends questioned why Hunter didn’t end things with the other women if he truly wanted a different life with her. The latest episode of Love After Lockup ended with him calling Kate and her walking away from her friends to talk to him.
