Momma Dee Reveals That Her Husband Ernest Has Relapsed

"I thought Ernest had beat those demons, but obviously he's succumbed to them once again."

Momma Dee may be a no-nonsense type of character, but even the toughest people we know sometimes need a shoulder to lean on.

As Mommma Dee recovers from her cosmetic surgery, KK decides to come over and comfort her with a little TLC. And because KK is the plug, she brings over the hottest nurse any recovering mama could ask for. Heellooooo Nurse Bae!

As they catch up on things, Momma Dee reveals that her body isn't the only thing that's gone through a dramatic change recently. This also applies to her living situation with her husband Ernest. After he'd missing for four days, she discovered it's because he's gone back to using drugs again and is now living with his mother. None of this makes sense to Momma Dee, since Ernest had been clean and sober for 22 years. "I thought Ernest had beat those demons, but obviously he's succumbed to them once again." KK encourages her to talk to Ernest and try to work it out, since she's obviously not ready to throw in the towel on their marriage just yet.

Will Momma Dee be able to get through to Ernest, or is she better off letting sleeping dogs lay? Find out what she decides when Love & Hip Hop Atlanta returns next Monday at 8/7c.
