Basketball Wives‘ star (and arguable centerpiece) Jennifer Williams recently stopped by the VH1 Digital office and sat down with us to give us the scoop on the show. In clip above, Jennifer talks at length about her troubled marriage with former NBA player Eric Williams. We talk about the “dysfunctional” (her word!) lifestyle that she leads, his infidelity, whether she describes her marriage as “open,” why she’s still with him and how she feels about having shared all this information with the world via reality TV.
Below, she gets into the more fun side of the drama and explains why she doesn’t think she, Evelyn and Suzie are mean girls for the way they’ve treated Royce…

Hi Mrs. Williams I wanted to stop by, and chat for a moment about your relationship the problems you are experiencing. Talk to Mr. Williams the way you talk to your girlfriends, at the end of the day its the two of you that weather the storms. Mr. Williams married you right. You are an intelligent, talented, and sexy sis-ta who has done what the majority of the other women want. Don’t let the pain, and sadness of the other relationship determine your relationship. Times might be different but what a man truly wants remain the same. A man likes the hunt, pursues, and capture his prey. They want three things food, sex, and piece and quit. Turn the tables on Eric let him be the hunter, again. You do the who-do that you did so well to get him. Last but not lease keep our Heavenly Father in your life. talk to him abut the change you want to see in Mr. Williams. Our Heavenly Father can change things trust me. I see something you don’t, Eric said to you “sometimes it takes longer for people to grow-up than others”, you said, ” yea but people don’t have time to wait around for change.”(Key word) he said,”But I’m not with other people, I’m in this with you”. One sis-ta to another, all women want what you have. PRAY ABOUT THE CHANGES YOU WANT TO SEE IN ERIC, WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT MR, WILLIAMS SPEAK POSITIVE THINGS FROM THIS DAY FORWARD. Trust me it works. Stay Blessed
I can’t believe the way Jennifer and Evelyn act. They are such lying, back-stabbers. They tell Royce of the things that Gloria said but yet they talk about Royce behind her back. I don’t like the way they treat Royce. They act like they are better than her. I can’t believe the way they acted after leaving Gloria’s house. Jennifer and Evelyn acted like it was beneath them to be in Orlando. Who do they think they are? Just because they have money does not mean they are better than anyone else. The only reason Jennifer doesn’t want to leave Eric is because she doesn’t want to give up that kind of lifstyle. They need to get over themselves!
Hello, like to start by saying I like the show.Seeing others problems make you feel better about yourself. First I would like to say Gloria keep doing your thing girl don’t be like the rest of those backstabbing, lying, trouble making hoochies. They talk about groupies cause they all was problaly one therselves. And I thought the show was called Basketball Wives is it me or the ones causing the most drama ain’t and never will be a wife your EX’S.And why can’t anyone mind their buisness. And Shawnie is not Queen why is everyone answering to her. Furthermore Royce girl RUN………….. You is a pawn girl they are fake wait till you look back on this you and Gloria could of been friends but because of a rumor everyone judged and pointed fingers but remember before her they were talking about you. Suzie go get a face lift and some braces. And Jennifer stop talking to your fake barbie’s and talk to your man. Marriage is a foundation not an group event you got married alone deal with it alone. All of the ladies but Gloria need to get a life and seek God cause all things are possible through Christ. Love one another and stop all that running off at the mouths does everything these days our people put out have to be negative most of you guys have children act like it the world revolves for just more than you. Stayed Blessed.
Can ANYbody tell me where Jennifer got that gorgeous white maxi dress she was wearing on her fabulous frame on at the beginning of Episode 6? I’m going to a White Party and it would be great!!! ANYBODY???
I don’t like you at all personally, your a stuck up ~_##*(+_^$^$!)~*# point blank period.
Please Jennifer STOP discussing your marriage. have more respect for yourself- You are beautiful and dont belittle yourself to other’s standards!!!
I hope Jennifer stops whining…..same ol same ol!
come on Jenn….the only words that we heard was I am not sure if I should stay married…but not ready to file papers…stop…stop..stop…I would stray too! you are Uber boring……find a new subject matter and keep other chics out of your marriage! the only two people in it are the two of you, if you fear a divorce it will come…if you see a long marriage with children that will come too…it is up to you, you are the one wearing the ring, grow up and deal with it!
You are putting your man on blast, be loyal first and foremost!
Besides Gloria, Jen seems to be the only one who has a relationship. Yes they have problems but all marriages have ups and downs. It just depends on how much you are willing to go threw with the other person. Marriage is commitment and she is really trying to honor the commitment she made before God. Like she said she knows how divorce affected her. She obviously loves Eric and wants a family. He needs to grow up and appreciate the beautiful woman God blessed him with before she is gone.
I wanted to know where and what’s the brand of the gray sweater/shrug Jennifer wore to Evelyn’s the day they spoke about her marriage? HOT!
I think Jen is great! Its a great show and needs to be a full hour!
What is the name of that cute sweater/shrug Jennifer Williams wore on Basketball wives. Where can I find one??
Jennifer stay strong and try to work your marriage out. The courage it took for you to expose the truth about your situation. Remarkable. Don’t pay attention to plastic surgery she is a hater! You driving the bentley etc. Don’t speak on it anymore. Action speak louder than words. Keep looking flawless and being the class act that you are! Keep putting it in there faces.lol. I love everything that you have worn on the show. Stay strong and prayerful. Put Eric into Gods’ hands. Trust me God will get him right and submissive. Stay a faithful and praying wife. We always have favor with GOD! God Bless U
Mrs. Williams I agree with Veronica Roberts’s comments. You are the spokeman for a lot of BLack Wife in America now. Weather you beleive it or not you are (The other women on your show are not! They are not married U R!). And you are a beautiful DARK AND LOVELY Queen, Lady. Instead of talk and asking for advice from your WANNABE’S, Go talk with the LORD first, and he will directed your path to some real wives that can give you some good advice. AND KNOW THIS NO MARRIGE IS WITHOUT IT’S THORNS! Just like a rose garden. And if you want your husband to change you will have to change first. Because lady we all can’t change no one but ourselves.The only one who can change people and Husbands is our LORD GOD. HE THE MAKER AND CREATOR OF US ALL. Stay in prayer for your married girl. Because if your marriage is grounded in the 3 of you, God the Father, the husband & the wife,Your marriage will never last! Put it in god’s hand and leave it there! AND PLEASE STOP LISTENING TO THOSE WANNNABE’S!!
first off all sandra is right,your husband is just a business partner because he wouldnt want to be known that he is married to a 6ft man! all you are is side kick crap. you need to get your crap straight and grow up.you and your other friends embarrass the rest of the the women of miami. you need a good ~^#)($*!@&@)#+@ whooping from sandra. bet you woudlnt talk crap if you werent with your other male looking !$(%`@)_%!!*++`(@ es. you all need to grow up and vh1 needs to cancelthis ridiculous show.
Jennifer if u decide to get a divorce give Big daddy a call you fine tall beautiful brown suga u are a whole lot of woman and i luv that
Jennifer, Honey, I truly feel sorry for you. You are trying to hold on to something that is not there. I hope that Eric does try to do better by you (for your sake)Let marriage be honorable among all, and the marriage bed be without defilement, for God will judge fornicators, and adulterers. (Hebrews 13:4) You keep doing what YOU are doing,hold on to YOUR marriage, don’t let YOUR “FRIENDS” steer you to do something out of your element. Eric will come around, if not HE will have to deal with his behavior, not you. Don’t do evil for evil to NO ONE. Provide fine things in the sight of ALL men (& woman)(Romans 12:17) In the end your conscience is clear. I hope that I have provided dome insight for ya’.
——————————————————–Now everybody knows that I know why “J” is not leaving her husband! But since she won’t leave, I tell her what she wants to hear!
I love ya “J”
i work evening shift don’t get a chance to watch your show on vacation caught last episode i love fashion i don’t where shades because i have an eye diseased that makes it even harder to see but the shades you had on when you and Shaunie were at the pool who made them will take all my over time to get them they where nice please respond i am all the way in Texas
Jennifer, stop listening to your gurls. they want what u have, a man in their lives. don’t let them come between u and your man. like most of your reader said, basicly, keep your biz 2 yourself and talk 2 your man. only u your man and God can work this marriage out. you did make a fool of yourself on the show as far as i am concerned by acting the way u did. u girls make our black women look so bad. and ya’ll supposedly have so much class… well, i’d hate 2 c u without class! you’d b a disaster.
THE WIVES ON THE SHOW ALSO ACT CRAZY BECAUSE THEY GO AROUND THROWING DRINKS IN PEOPLE FACES.. SO BEFORE YOU GO AND JUDGE AND SAY ROYCE WAS ACTING CRAZY, YOU GUYS WERE ACTING CHILDISH!!!
Jennifer where did u get that gray sweater?
Jennifer!!! you are defiantly my fav on the show. from the little i seen on tv i think your marrige can be worked out. he seemed sincere when he was talking to you. with counseling and time i believe everything will be okay.keep faith and dont let the past ruin your future…
