Episode 66 of Love After Lockup Season 5 has sparked controversy as viewers respond to Brian's questionable actions toward Brooklyn, his girlfriend. Concerns regarding Brian's genuine motivations were raised throughout the show as it became clear that he was dependent on Brooklyn for financial support. Fans think Brian might be abusing her generosity and readiness to assist him in getting back on his feet, even if she is committed to their relationship.

Brooklyn has continuously provided Brian with financial and emotional support as he transitions to life outside of prison. However, there are concerns about his lack of initiative to become self-sufficient. Supporters criticized Brian on social media for allegedly using Brooklyn as a safety net without making an equal contribution to the partnership. His contemptuous demeanor and refusal to recognize her sacrifices only exacerbated her annoyance.

As Brooklyn opened up about her trust fund in this week's episode, viewers were left wondering in the episode if Brian's charm was manipulating Brooklyn's loyalty. Many took to social media to call out Brian for relying on Brooklyn for money.

A Love After Lockup viewer posted,

"Brian is clearly using Brooklyn for her money!!"

Another fan shared on X,

"Brian loves that money girl..he is gunna drain her dry ladies and gents!"

A netizen questioned,

"So Brian Only found Brooklyn Interesting once he went to jail ??"
"No surprise that Brooklyn has sent Brian some money, the only question is how much has she actually sent?" a tweet read.

A netizen wrote,

"Brooklyn you BETTER NOT have told Brian about that daggone trust fund..."

Other Love After Lockup fans called out Brooklyn for being upset at other girls that Brian has been talking to.

A person shared,

"Brooklyn was mad at the girl Brian was talking to instead of being mad at Brian."
"These fools always get upset with the other woman. Brian's got this fool right where he wants her," expressed another X user.
