It’s Season 7, Episode 1 of Love After Lockup, and the snark squad is watching a fresh batch of women trade their sanity and savings for a collect call. The premiere introduces Emily, a legal sex worker struggling to balance her "professional" life with her partner’s prison-bound jealousy, and Kaylee, who has somehow funneled $42,000 into her inmate husband’s commissary while lying to her family about the massive dent in her bank account. While Goddess tries to ignore her family’s (very valid) warnings about her boyfriend's intentions, Monique is busy packing her life into boxes to move across state lines for a man, Titus, she’s never actually touched. From idealized fantasies to the harsh, expensive reality of "sending a bag" to a cell block, these ladies are proving that love isn't just blind—it's incredibly costly.
