WeTV’s popular reality series Love After Lockup keeps fans hooked with its intense drama, and Season 5 is no exception. In episode 52, Indecent Proposal, which aired on December 20, the spotlight was on Tia and her partner Rob, who is currently incarcerated.

The highlight of the December 20 episode was Tia's growing suspicion over the post-release living arrangement that Rob enters with a woman named Evelyn. Initially meant to be a one-month stay, it has turned into what seems to be a six-month arrangement.

The situation is of concern for Tia as well as the show’s dedicated viewers. It draws attention, with Tia revealing she had earlier shot down a request Rob had made to move in with her and her daughter.

Fans take to social media to react to Love After Lockup’s Tia’s decision not to let Rob move in with them

On social media, viewers have praised Tia for her cautious approach, especially over the safety of her daughter.

“At least Tia has a little bit of common sense to not bring a stranger in the home with her daughter.” A fan tweeted.
“For the first time in love after lockup history, a woman won't move a man in with her kids. I knew I liked Tia.” Another fan wrote on X.
“Okay Tia may have a smidge of sense not bringing Rob to move in with her and her daughter” A fan posted.

Fans also expressed skepticism about Rob's situation, echoing Tia’s sentiments on the same.

“Rob already lying and still in prison so I know his ass is going to be a mess once he gets out into the free world Tia not going to stand a chance” a fan tweeted.
“Rob u telling stories my guy.” A fan posted on X.
“Is Rob's living situation making sense to anyone?” a fan reacted.
“Rob went from staying at his homie's house for a month to staying there for three to six months.” Comennted one fan.

What happened in the latest episode of Love After Lockup?

The latest episode revealed the complexities of Rob and Tia's situation during a conversation with Tia's sister, Tiffani.

Rob's over here trying to convince Tia that he's got this totally innocent housing situation with Evelyn (you know, his friend's girlfriend), who's supposedly just subletting her place while she crashes at her mom's. Simple, right? Well, hold onto your prison ID cards, because it gets better.

Enter Tia's sister, the tarot card reader (and apparently, tea spiller extraordinaire), who's not buying what Rob's selling. According to her crystal ball – or cards, rather – Evelyn's not exactly planning on being MIA from her own house. Plot twist!

While Rob maintained his innocence, insisting to Love After Lockup cameras that he "would never do anything to disrespect Tia," his changing timeline has raised suspicions. The initial one-month stay morphed into a potential six-month arrangement, leading to heated discussions and growing distrust.

Tia's not playing around though – she's got her mama bear instincts on high alert. With a daughter to protect, she's not about to let some sketchy housing situation slide. And honestly? The fans are here for it. Finally, someone on this show who's putting their kid before prison romance!

During separate conversations with producers of Love After Lockup, Rob attempted to clarify the living situation, revealing that while Evelyn owned the house, she would only have access to her room as needed.

However, this admission only seemed to complicate matters further, as it contradicted his earlier statements about having the house to himself. Meanwhile, Tia's suspicions continued to grow, particularly after discovering the extended timeline through a subsequent phone call.

Let's be real – maintaining trust when one half of your couple is behind bars is about as easy as smuggling a cell phone in a cake. But with Rob's story changing faster than prison meal schedules, Tia's got every right to raise an eyebrow (or two).

As one fan noted, "Rob went from staying at his homie's house for a month to staying there for three to six months," highlighting the inconsistencies that have left both Tia and viewers questioning Rob's transparency.


Love After Lockup airs at 8 pm ET on Fridays, only on WeTV.
