Love After Lockup season 5 released episode 52, Indecent Proposal, was aired on Friday, December 20, 2024. The episode highlighted Rob and Tia's challenges as suspicion grew in their relationship. While Tia was excited to meet Rob outside of prison, she was also concerned about his living situation after release.
Tia became suspicious of Rob's intentions after finding out that he planned to spend up to six months of parole at Evelyn, his friend's girlfriend's house. He informed Tia that he needed that time to make some other arrangements. However, Tia remained unconvinced, wondering why he chose to parole with another woman.
The Love After Lockup star's concerns increased when Rob shifted his initial claim of spending one month at Evelyn's place to three to six months later in the episode. As a result, she confronted Rob, questioning his intentions and demanding to know his motives. Regardless of his reassurances, Tia believed he was blindsiding her.
The couple's confrontation escalated and they exchanged hurtful words. While Rob asked Tia to check her "attitude," the latter vowed to break up if she found out he was lying.
Love After Lockup: Tia promises to sever ties with Rob if she discovers that he has been lying to her
During a conversation with her sister, Tiffani, Tia revealed that Rob would stay at his acquaintance, Evenlyn's house in Brooklyn after his release. When she added that Evelyn and her boyfriend used the house, Tiffani asked her if she knew whether they were polygamous, implying that multiple people could be involved.
"It's the 21st century, honey," Tiffani said.
While speaking to Rob on the phone, Tiffani asked the Love After Lockup cast member to explain where his parole address was located. Rob mentioned that the house belonged to his best friend's girlfriend, Evelyn, who was subletting it.
He added that Evelyn would stay at her mother's while he occupied the place. However, she could still access her room as she pleased.
"He don't live there. She's not going to be living there neither. But she's still going to have access to her room," Rob said.
Tia struggled to believe Rob's claims and mentioned that her cousin, Toya, told her that Evelyn and her boyfriend would cohabit with Rob. Hearing that, Rob revealed that his friend was not a permanent resident there since he was also in contact with other women besides Evelyn.
The Love After Lockup cast member assured Tia she had nothing to worry about since the accommodation was a temporary one-month parole address. Regardless, Tia struggled to believe him and confessed that she was "not okay" with his living situation.
Later, during another conversation, when Tia asked how long he planned on staying in Brooklyn, Rob said:
"Probably three to six months, give or take, you know, so. But I'm not a 100% sure yet."
Tia was caught off guard when she heard he intended to spend almost half a year there. Although he explained that he would need that much time to find another place, Tia refused to believe him. She wondered why he kept changing his claim.
"Like what is it? Is it one month, two month, three month? Like, what are we doing?" she asked.
She wondered if he was lying so she would not leave him. Tia demanded that her Love After Lockup partner be honest and upfront about his intentions since she knew nothing about Evelyn or his relationship with her.
While speaking to the cameras, Rob expressed his frustration over the situation. He wondered why Tia acted that way when he had always been truthful to her. He added that he was fully committed to her and had no ulterior motives.
Despite his explanations, Tia was suspicious of Rob and threatened to sever ties with him if she discovered he had lied to her.
"Watch your f**king attitude. Like for real," he said.
Tia slammed her phone on the ground and walked inside her house, refusing to talk to Rob or deal with "liars."
