The Bizarre Offer Tami Roman Gave Her Husband Reggie Youngblood

In 2014, Tami Roman was 44 years old when she met Reggie Youngblood, who at the time was 27. Unfortunately, they had a miscarriage the following year, according to TMZ. Roman was three months along. That wasn’t the end of their family planning journey, however. Roman and Youngblood appeared on “The Doctors” in 2016 to gain a better understanding of Roman’s chance to conceive and carry a child. Dr. Tina Cooper Smith offered Roman “a great variety of choices,” including natural conception, surrogacy, or even adoption as possible avenues to expanding their family.

Unfortunately, by 2021, Roman and Youngblood were still struggling to create their family. While appearing on “The Real,” Roman surprisingly revealed that she’d told Youngblood that he could have a baby on his own. “I feel like I’m at a point where my career is starting to do and reward me for all of my efforts and the time that I’ve been in this business, and a baby for me right now would just not be the thing to do,” shared Roman. “So, what I offered [Reggie] was an opportunity for us to take a break for a year or two and let him go find someone to have a child with. And then when he has his baby, we could get back together,” she continued. Youngblood, however, wasn’t fond of this plan, expressing to her that he loved her more than his desire to have children.
