90 Day Fiancé Star Memphis Opens Up About Her Journey To Find Love

What has that been like, just knowing that, or at least when you were going through the filming process, like, "Oh, I could be leaving the States." What was that like to even think about?

So I have two children previous to dating Hamza and so I have a commitment to them first and foremost. And so just making sure that I stay true to that and being a mother, that comes first beyond anything else.

Yeah. And how old are your kids? Do you mind me asking?

My daughter is 14 and my son is 7.

Okay. And what do they think about all of this, about you going on the show?

Okay. So my daughter was not quite ... She thought it was a little different, but once she'd seen how everything was going, she was like, "Okay. I could get with it." But my son has been away from the whole scene, so he hasn't really been able to really see it, so.

And 7 is still really little.

Yeah, but he's very intuitive and a very smart boy. Yeah. But now that everything is coming out, his father has talked more about it, so now he is like, "Oh, okay. My mom's going to be on television." So now he's kind of like, "All right."

And I know that obviously dating comes with getting your friends and your family involved. So what has that been like for you throughout this journey? Have you gotten support from your friends and family? Did they put some hurdles in your way? What has that been like? Because you're in a very unique romantic situation.

Yeah. Very.

One that's very different.

And that is true, especially for the African-American population. I haven't seen us really [dive] in that type of different culture, you know what I mean? My mom, we haven't really had a really good relationship. It's been off and on. So she likes Hamza as a person, but the fact that he is Muslim is a problem for her. So I think she battles a little bit with that. But at the end of the day, because of our hurdles with our relationship, I really don't ... Her opinion really doesn't matter to me.

I've been on my own anyways. But some of my friends, yeah, I care about their opinion, but at the end of the day, no one's paying my bills, you know what I mean? And I feel like I'm a pretty good judge of character and especially when it comes to my children, I'm not going to bring anyone in their lives that I feel is going to possibly harm them. I mean, not that we ever think anybody will, but I don't know, just the way that he is when he is video chatting them and everything like that just shows a different side to him.

Absolutely.

So basically, my friends and family, I'm like, whatever, you know what I mean?
