‘Married to Medicine’ Recap: The Group Calls out Quad + Phaedra Denies Ever Dating Dr. Greg liennhi

During part one of the “Married to Medicine” reunion, tension between the group and Quad comes into focus. But first, the ladies confront Phaedra.

Not only does Phaedra deny ever dating Greg and asking for money from him, Phaedra claims she distanced herself from Quad because she grew closer to the other women, calling her friendship with Quad “the titanic.”

Speaking of Quad, the group feels Quad wasn’t supportive of her when a video clip resurfaced of Dr. Jackie disparaging her patients. This leads to Dr. Simone screaming at Quad for her behavior.

Phaedra defends her decision to dump Quad. 

Andy talks about Phaedra’s rookie season in the group. She once again denies that she ever dated Gregory. And she also denies his accusation that things ended because Phaedra allegedly asked him for $4000 a month. She says her purse cost $10,000 anyway, so none of this makes sense. 

When Quad says it seems like Phaedra dumped her when she found out the other women were mad at her, Phaedra doesn’t exactly deny it. She didn’t want to attach herself to the “Titanic” when she was just getting to know all the ladies. Toya laughs at his. 

Gregory is once again brought up. Quad and Sweet Tea maintain that Gregory said he dated Phaedra in the past. Phaedra denies this again and says they never had anything romantic or intimate. She doesn’t recall ever kissing him but she may have held his hand once. 

Andy questions if there’s any chance Quad and Phaedra can mend their friendship, the ladies hope they can. But Phaedra was told by Heavenly that Quad was talking badly about her behind her back. So the trust isn’t there just yet. Quad says she doesn’t recall ever dragging Phaedra behind her back. But Heavenly says Quad went all the way in. 

The group confronts Quad for not defending Jackie.

Next up is Toya’s venture into the wine business and the Med Gala drama. 

Toya admits she cares about material possessions so much because she grew up in a very modest household. And she thought it was wrong for Heavenly to blast her for not donating $1000 because she donated cases of wine. That should have been enough. 

Jackie’s controversy is the next topic. Andy reads aloud the comment Jackie made when she appeared on Heavenly’s YouTube channel a couple of years ago. When answering why black women die from childbirth in such large numbers, Jackie says black women often “cry wolf” to the doctors and medical staff. 

She breaks down in tears and says her past comments nearly ruined her entire career. The cast reached out to her except for Quad. Andy grills Quad for not publicly supporting Jackie. Quad’s defense is she sent a group text in private but didn’t say anything publicly because she was going through her own thing. 

Quad is called a bad friend.

Simone asks Quad why she didn’t just call Jackie to check on her versus asking Heavenly, Quad says Heavenly told her not to call Jackie because it wasn’t a good time. At the time, the other women suspected Quad had something to do with the video resurfacing on social media. So Quad didn’t call.

It’s at this point that Simone screams that she supported Quad during some dark times but Quad wasn’t there for her. When Andy asks for an example of one of these times, Simone says she reached out when Quad’s niece recently died in her swimming pool. Quad breaks down in tears and Phaedra consoles her. 

The cast breaks for a moment and Quad takes this time to talk to Jackie. She tells her she would never do anything to hurt Jackie and she’s devastated that Jackie had suspicions. Jackie tells Quad she was really in a dark place then and suspected the worst. But that’s on Quad for ruining her connection with the other ladies. And she’d “rather lose a friend than lose herself.”
