However, this season, the star has gone too far. The season kicked off with an update on Heavenly and Lateasha "Sweet Tea" Lunceford's feud that had started the season prior. Heavenly took aim at Sweet Tea for being a gold digger, for dating older me and made horrible comments about Sweet Tea's issues with fertility, claiming, "My mama got a better chance of having a baby than she do in hell!". Heavenly's mother passed away in 2022. While Sweet Tea did make allegations back regarding claims of infidelity made against Heavenly's husband, Damon, her comments were often in response to Heavenly's attacks. In response to Sweet Tea making the infidelity claims against Damon, Heavenly then went after Sweet Tea’s husband, Dr. Gregory Lunceford by calling him an abuser and making nefarious innuendos about him and his practice on social media, even going so far as to call him a pedophile, a comment that she has since publicly recanted.
Dr. Heavenly Is Too Comfortable Taking Cheap Shots
Contessa’s mother passed away in 2010 and the star has been incredibly open about how her mother's passing has impacted her life and has contributed to the work she does advocating breast cancer research, including opening up about her decision to undergo a double mastectomy during Season 6 of Married to Medicine. During the heated argument, Heavenly yells to Contessa "Yo mama stupid", further escalating the situation as she continues to double down on her remarks as Contessa reminds Heavenly that her mother had passed away, and the two nearly come to blows, with poor Jackie being caught in the middle and thrown to the ground in her attempt to try and separate the two.
Dr. Heavenly's Behavior Is Only Getting Worse
While Heavenly brings shock value, and there was a time when it felt intriguing knowing that you never knew what was going to come out of her mouth, it has now become difficult to watch. There is rarely ever remorse shown on Heavenly’s part, and she never seems to take any accountability or ownership, apart from a quick “I shouldn’t have said that”. She certainly isn’t learning from any of her behavior, as it continues on season after season and only seems to escalate. Having a wild card like Heavenly on the cast can be entertaining and does bring some necessary drama. She needs to reign in the insults and stop going for the jugular immediately at the sign of any argument developing and remember that these women are her friends, or at the very least are human beings that deserve some level of respect.
Married to Medicine is available to stream on Peacock TV in the U.S.
