@@NL-hu2ud thank you so much! We are not but we have two boys and they are thriving I'm still learning. Haha. I have new music out on all platforms, "When Stars Collide".
@@michelecleansup I do try to follow her technique. I have not been using jars but considering it again haha. I went back to school and now have osap debt unfortunately. Believing to pay it off soon.
I like how Gail worked right around the person not trying and went straight to the person putting in effort with the extra reward. This girl is a tad immature but I feel really bad for a wife whose husband can’t even use what he’s actually trained in to do something for her. If anything ever screamed ‘I do not value you’ that was it. Heart breaking
UGH this guy is so self-centered and always looking for a reason to bail. He won't even help her make a video to help her with her own career because, he says, he can't do it like a full-blown music video? What a child.
him refusing to make a music video of his wife's talent was disgusting. get over yourself. it isn't about you, it's about your WIFE. your career isn't going to be hindered because you filmed your WIFE singing at a piano.
@@momof2momof2replace the word "wife" with girlfriend so that you can understand. The point still stands. He doesn't want to support her despite being with her.
Bonnie you’re so beautiful!!! I hope the years have been kind and you’ve found someone who values and appreciates you. I’m obviously a total outsider and this is a 20 min reality show but I can’t for the life of me see the appeal of Mick AT ALL. He seems quite cold, old & distant from this brief glimpse and with Bonnie’s beauty and charisma she could definitely be thriving in an entertainment career with just a little support. I know this was a long time ago but I really hope it worked out for Bonnie.
I think so too. But he's a camera and film guy so there would be opportunity for him to film her if she has a "gig". That way if he's so jealous he could still keep tabs on her. Maybe she got to be a good artist and left him.
I’m self employed, doing various gig work (sewing, Uber, transcribing/editing), and I set aside 25% of my gross income for taxes. I just started this year, since my life was different before. At the end of this year, I’ll have over $5,000 to pay my taxes. Likely with deductions I’ll owe less than that, and so I’ll get a “refund” from my savings account. Not to mention I save it in a high-yield savings account, so it earns interest too. Not a ton; last month it earned $11. But hey, $11 is something, and it’s working for me, not an interest-free loan to Uncle Sam!
Thousands of musicians with zero budget have made interesting, high-quality music videos. Visuals matter in the music industry, and Bonnie is lovely. A video of her original music, with her beautiful voice and face, would be an excellent calling card. It saddens me that Mick wouldn't film the video for her. It wouldn't affect his career at all - her name would be on it, not his! How could he not support her like that, especially with his lighting expertise. Even a simple performance video would have sufficed. Anyhow, it just makes me feel very sad. I really hope that Bonnie was able to pursue her dreams and continue with her music.
I can't say he's a narcisist, but I'm 100% certain he's putting on an act. He cries when it's the perfect time to cry, and takes blame when it's the right time to take blame. BUT he won't do anything that is asked of him, and he won't do anything that benefits anyone other than himself. He is perfectly fine not getting the money, because his aim was always to make himself look better.
She's breathtaking! The talent, the kindness and drive...I hope she reaches the stars! Side note, him saying that he can't do it, and that it is counter productive to help his WIFE just hit me the wrong way. He said it hinders his career rather than augment it. No. You lift one another. You don't step on the other.
So sad..hes full of excuses and no actual follow through. They both have made mistakes obviously...i find his actions, lack thereof, based in disrespect and thats never ok
Bonnie seems like a very loving and hardworking 12:35 mom. She’s out trying to get an income with a newborn! Not to mention the unpaid family stuff she does. This guy is a complete jerk, so selfish and unsupportive. What a horrible non-partner.I hope she’s doing well without him now.
Right? His excuse is that it wouldn't add to his portfolio. Well then put in that added value that sells you and your skillset because going on TV complaining and doing the bare minimum sure isn't selling himself.
I saw that one of my favourite You Tube video creators started his channel with his friend holding his phone while he told true crime stories. His "studio" was a camper that he had on the road. He traveled around the country with his dogs. Now he is doing really well. Like Bonnie, he has the talent.
These two are both with the exact opposite people they should be with. You have two leading men, each with no supporting person. They won't last. They each need someone that enjoys the grunt work that is left over from being with an artist.
No matter what people say, just do your thing Bonnie! In the end, one comes alone to this world and will go alone from this world. Live life to your max!!
I don't understand why people spend so much money on electronics. Due to depreciation and freefall, a $2000 keyboard is now worth $10, and same goes for a $3500 laptop.
I cannot believe he would not help her make a music video!!!! To me, that means he is not supporting her at all in her career in her life.... If anything making a music video would help his career because it would show his range and what he is capable of and maybe he could make more money doing videography on the side... I worked 20 years doing wedding videos and parties. I would have loved to had made a really cool video for her. It would have been amazing. And her husband/boyfriend should have done it for her. Unbelievable!. No wonder he doesn't want to talk about it.
I think she is suffering that she can’t see her adorable kids more often.. or even that they do not live with her. And he knows what a beautiful woman she is.. and he also knows that she is too much for him… I really can’t believe that he couldn’t take a video of his wife singing….
He can’t put his name on something his wife is doing to help their family with finances? Or even just to support her with her passion/goals in life? Very telling.
On the low he really does not believe you that you found your purpose & passion. He has a lot of EXCUSES and his tax situation is only GETTING WORSE BY THE DAY. I am sure in the industry he is in he could ask some of his connection DO THEY KNOW OF A GOOD ACCOUNTANT/CPA and a TAX EXPERT THAT CAN HELP HIM WITH HIS WITH THE IRS. Better yet keep BETTER TRACK OF HIS MONEY AND INVEST IN QUICKBOOK
Free Lance I bet that's why the tax person hasn't come after him because he has his own business. His wages aren't garnished as a own business freelancer so he gets tons of tax write off he's just being lazy 😥 We All Need To Pay Taxes accounting 101 DUDE.
Why was he acting SO WEIRD about the video. I might be way off, but it almost felt he was jealous of her and didn't want any more attention on her. It might be my imagination, but something was strange.
I mean, I do get that he's a lighting technician, not a camera op, so he probably isn't "trained to do that." But in that case, who gives a rat's ass if his name is on it? Nobody is gonna be like "wow this guy sucks at cameras, we shouldn't hire him as an electrician." It's just doing a favor for his wife and he couldn't manage that. What a jerk.
Wow, financial issues are the least of their worries. The boyfriend's attitude about not helping his girlfriend with her music video. What a selfish self-centered jerk. I'd be packing my bags. There's no way that relationship lasted. The writing was on the wall. I never understand when smart and talented women choose a$$holes for partners.
i dont think they learned much. they fell short on everything. neither of them seem to be grounded in reality. they need money and they need it now. she couldn't even bring in $250/week. she's not going to make money singing anytime soon, so she should find a hustle that pays quick, like cleaning houses/apartments, doing daycare, walking dogs, etc. this guy certainly is a dbag. he didn't file his taxes and he couldn't even hold a camera and record his wife singing and edit a quick music video. full of excuses and no follow through, it's always someone or something else to blame. ultimately, something tells me neither of these two learned much and they continued to slide further into debt.
“I went through a divorce so I went on a shopping spree”…. Ill never understand this mentality, some people are so entitled I went through a divorce and it made me save and restructure for the kids, she just worried about herself
Um no . I had severe depression, anxiety , and mick was mentally emotionally never available . I’ve let the past go, but he made decisions on the money . Most of the footage of me shopping is all staged . I don’t shop, in a thrifter . We just splurged a lot . Please don’t assume with reality tv ever . They tell you where to go and set you up for failure
dude how is making a lofi video of your talented girl going to harm your career , yeah it wont look super professional ... but when the viewers see the credits they will understand
Mick's attitude stinks. The music video doesn't need to be 'Thriller'. Everybody starts somewhere, and talent speaks for itself. Even if somehow somebody found out you filmed it, and it hurt your career (doubtful, you rig lighting, you're not a director for God's sake so its likely more about your ego, at least from what we, the audience, can see), why wouldn't you make that small sacrifice to help your spouse, the mother of your child? I used to work nights, and work up at 6 AM on my off-days to drive my fiancé to her teaching job in the Bronx, since she also had night school in the evening and was doing 14 hour days. God did it suck. We were both exhausted constantly. lol But she came into my life and she became my world. Sacrifice and compromise is a significant part of love. When your spouse loses, you lose. The kids lose. You're a team, and you can't be tearing a hole in the uniforms before you even get on the field. (To Mick's credit his stepson and Bonnie actually spoke up in the comments here, and said he was a good stepfather who really cared about them although Bonnie and him have broken up; Sad it couldn't work out but I wish the family all the best, God be with you!)
I just received a comment from one of this mother's older sons and he is offended by my question. I don't blame him at all. What he might not have done is follow my conversation with his mother. I can so identify with his mother. I also have two sons, nearing 50 now, but I had a hard start also. I wish her and her family the very best. Life is hard. And she woke up! Like I woke up! She will know what I mean.
I saw your conversation with his mother and you were offensive. The questions you asked were intrusive and none of your business. You questioned if she was too lazy to work and if there were drugs involved. You also wanted to know why she did not have full custody of her older 2 boys. Those questions were offensive so the son's response was probably totally appropriate. Then you went from critical, condescending and judgmental to "understanding" when it came out that Bonnie's ex was abusive to her, because suddenly you could "relate". You come across as self-centred as Mick did in this video.
Lots of hate for the man in the comments, as there always is with these. But she’s no prize, either. She isn’t bringing in any money at all. And yes, I get she’s a mom, but she has one child to look after. She was tasked with bringing in $250/week. I could do that easy-yes, even back in 2007 when this was filmed. And yet she can’t… but she can shop….
There were 2 kids there full time and then the other 2 who visit. She would need an at home job (like the piano lessons) since daycare for an infant is crazy and a toddler won't be much better. Personally, I feel if you are in debt you simply don't keep making kids so these 2 with him are just money sinks at this point. I'm guessing they are paying child support on the other 2. He is an ass though. Refusing to help his wife to be able to get something put together that would have taken him a few hours because he didn't feel it was fancy enough? Wow. Way to support his spouse.
@@AutumnMoonlight95 Agreed, he’s an ass and a loser. My point was that she wasn’t doing anything to help the family, and was wasting what resources they did have.
@@AutumnMoonlight95 I doubt she pays child support since she has no income - in the US , he wouldn’t be responsible for kids not his. But my alarm bells went off immediately that she didn’t have custody of the older boys. That’s unusual.
1. I’ve seen lots of these videos where the commenters were absolutely laying into the females because they deserved it. Way harsher than what this guy is getting on here. 2. Have you ever been the primary caregiver for an infant? That’s not a 6 year old who’s in school half the day. Whatever she does has to be at home and worked around the infant’s schedule. It’s unlikely she has the support to just leave him somewhere to make $250 when daycare for a week is $500+. That’s no easy task. 3. Home based freelance businesses take time to grow. The biggest growth engines for businesses like that are word of mouth. Especially in 2007 without all the platforms we have now like Angie’s List, Upwork and Fiverrr. It’s highly unlikely someone is going to pay a complete stranger hundreds of dollars for lessons when they’ve never even heard of them. Not to mention, where, in that tiny attic apartment, would someone feel comfortable coming for lessons? 4. Yes, she’s immature spending all that money knowing they haven’t paid his taxes and they have only one income but they’re both spending and that’s why they’re on the show. What I think a lot of people are reacting to in the comments is he not only actively threw away money (he lost $3k from Gail due to his stubbornness) he also in a very clear way expressed his lack of care for his wife. If my husband had a specialized skill set and refused to use it to help me make something for me, for my well being, and threw a whole tantrum on top of it - I’d be on my way to the divorce lawyers office. If he doesn’t value her after a kid and slogging through his back taxes with him (because they are his and his responsibility) he never will. That’s abuse in my eyes. That’s y he’s getting it in the comments. Everyone on here expects a shopping addiction. No one expects an emotionally abusive partner. And if you want to see it go in the other direction- find the one where the woman was threatening to leave her husband every week for nothing. She got it good in the comments as well.
What kind of question is that ? Lol and why would I have to do that ? I work in healthcare as a psw frontline , 12 hr shifts in mental health and palliative care . Some of y’all are just cruel. Do you believe everything you see? This show was completely staged . None of numbers correct
Haha I agree. Because people are lost and this culture of men don’t want to marry, nor do the woman. I wanted marriage and was married before . Big fail. Sad culture we live in. Thankful God woke me yp
What’s more stupid is that you think married parents can’t be stupid financially. What does being unmarried with kids have to do with a budget show. Oh yeah nothing you are just stuck in the 60’s.
@@mirrorimage9224 I had to use it for daily living, but since then I work in healthcare, serve on the side, and perform live music. I have worked 3 jobs ever since that show. That was just my mat leave . The show isn’t accurate, no reality show is .
I also was on mat leave from working a hospital job here as a medical clerk. None of what is said is true . I worked at st Joseph’s healthcare for 10 years and have a pin to show for my 10 years of service . Do your research before you point a finger
@@BonnieHamilton Thank you. That was not explained in the show. Now, I am interested in why you do not have custody of your older kids. Probably none of my business. Best of luck.
@@suetipping4841 we didn’t have an order . My Ex just took them from me. I was only 21 and he was much older . Abusive relationship that for years I couldn’t fight. Now my older boys have been reconciled to me, my parents helped me out. I was so young and taken advantage of . My story is whacked tbh . Years of domestic abuse starting at the age of 18 years old with my first husband. I have since stoped the cycle and found freedom as a follower and disciple of Jesus. My church family have supported me and helped me get back on my feet. The cycle is broken finally !
@@BonnieHamilton See, now? i can relate to everything you told us here. I have a similar background. Cycle broken and Jesus saved me and my sons who are now close to 50-. I have been blessed. God keep you.
And by the way...I was cleaning film sets at the time. Thank you. Lol I did make money performing music after the show. Love you all!!

Right?? "It certainly doesn't help me in my career." Sir, it is not about you. It's about your partner and *her* career.
Jealousy! I was married to someone like that. She sounds fabulous. He wants her to stay home and have some more babies.
You are so right. I am sure that he could have borrowed the camera he felt he needed. He wants her to stay home.
Not married. It shows 😢

@@BonnieHamilton so you were spending more than you earn? It was life style?
@@janebaker4912 Mick and I just went out and spent when he was off work because he loved to spend and go out. That was the story lol.
@BonnieHamilton
Did you get to use the $2000 gift that Gail gave personally to you? Or, did your husband cash it in and use the money?
Is Gail a nice lady like she's on tv Bonnie?
She was nice but she flirted with mick the whole time
If he was good at his job he would be able to highlight her talent without money.
dude how is making a lofi video of your talented girl going to harm your career , yeah it wont look super professional ... but when the viewers see the credits they will understand
Doesn’t help him in «his career»? The audacity of this man
He was selfish
He is selfish
Mick's attitude stinks. The music video doesn't need to be 'Thriller'. Everybody starts somewhere, and talent speaks for itself. Even if somehow somebody found out you filmed it, and it hurt your career (doubtful, you rig lighting, you're not a director for God's sake so its likely more about your ego, at least from what we, the audience, can see), why wouldn't you make that small sacrifice to help your spouse, the mother of your child? I used to work nights, and work up at 6 AM on my off-days to drive my fiancé to her teaching job in the Bronx, since she also had night school in the evening and was doing 14 hour days. God did it suck. We were both exhausted constantly. lol But she came into my life and she became my world. Sacrifice and compromise is a significant part of love. When your spouse loses, you lose. The kids lose. You're a team, and you can't be tearing a hole in the uniforms before you even get on the field. (To Mick's credit his stepson and Bonnie actually spoke up in the comments here, and said he was a good stepfather who really cared about them although Bonnie and him have broken up; Sad it couldn't work out but I wish the family all the best, God be with you!)
Mick is the worst
Why doesn't a stay at home mom have custody of her children?
I just received a comment from one of this mother's older sons and he is offended by my question. I don't blame him at all. What he might not have done is follow my conversation with his mother. I can so identify with his mother. I also have two sons, nearing 50 now, but I had a hard start also. I wish her and her family the very best. Life is hard. And she woke up! Like I woke up! She will know what I mean.
I saw your conversation with his mother and you were offensive. The questions you asked were intrusive and none of your business. You questioned if she was too lazy to work and if there were drugs involved. You also wanted to know why she did not have full custody of her older 2 boys. Those questions were offensive so the son's response was probably totally appropriate. Then you went from critical, condescending and judgmental to "understanding" when it came out that Bonnie's ex was abusive to her, because suddenly you could "relate". You come across as self-centred as Mick did in this video.
Lots of hate for the man in the comments, as there always is with these. But she’s no prize, either. She isn’t bringing in any money at all. And yes, I get she’s a mom, but she has one child to look after. She was tasked with bringing in $250/week. I could do that easy-yes, even back in 2007 when this was filmed. And yet she can’t… but she can shop….
There were 2 kids there full time and then the other 2 who visit. She would need an at home job (like the piano lessons) since daycare for an infant is crazy and a toddler won't be much better. Personally, I feel if you are in debt you simply don't keep making kids so these 2 with him are just money sinks at this point. I'm guessing they are paying child support on the other 2. He is an ass though. Refusing to help his wife to be able to get something put together that would have taken him a few hours because he didn't feel it was fancy enough? Wow. Way to support his spouse.
@@AutumnMoonlight95 Agreed, he’s an ass and a loser. My point was that she wasn’t doing anything to help the family, and was wasting what resources they did have.
@@AutumnMoonlight95 I doubt she pays child support since she has no income - in the US , he wouldn’t be responsible for kids not his. But my alarm bells went off immediately that she didn’t have custody of the older boys. That’s unusual.
1. I’ve seen lots of these videos where the commenters were absolutely laying into the females because they deserved it. Way harsher than what this guy is getting on here.
2. Have you ever been the primary caregiver for an infant? That’s not a 6 year old who’s in school half the day. Whatever she does has to be at home and worked around the infant’s schedule. It’s unlikely she has the support to just leave him somewhere to make $250 when daycare for a week is $500+. That’s no easy task.
3. Home based freelance businesses take time to grow. The biggest growth engines for businesses like that are word of mouth. Especially in 2007 without all the platforms we have now like Angie’s List, Upwork and Fiverrr. It’s highly unlikely someone is going to pay a complete stranger hundreds of dollars for lessons when they’ve never even heard of them. Not to mention, where, in that tiny attic apartment, would someone feel comfortable coming for lessons?
4. Yes, she’s immature spending all that money knowing they haven’t paid his taxes and they have only one income but they’re both spending and that’s why they’re on the show. What I think a lot of people are reacting to in the comments is he not only actively threw away money (he lost $3k from Gail due to his stubbornness) he also in a very clear way expressed his lack of care for his wife. If my husband had a specialized skill set and refused to use it to help me make something for me, for my well being, and threw a whole tantrum on top of it - I’d be on my way to the divorce lawyers office. If he doesn’t value her after a kid and slogging through his back taxes with him (because they are his and his responsibility) he never will. That’s abuse in my eyes. That’s y he’s getting it in the comments. Everyone on here expects a shopping addiction. No one expects an emotionally abusive partner. And if you want to see it go in the other direction- find the one where the woman was threatening to leave her husband every week for nothing. She got it good in the comments as well.

Beautiful commented well point by point,
Explaned FACT🤔💯
I wonder if she pays child support? Doubtful since she doesn’t work.
What kind of question is that ? Lol and why would I have to do that ? I work in healthcare as a psw frontline , 12 hr shifts in mental health and palliative care . Some of y’all are just cruel. Do you believe everything you see? This show was completely staged . None of numbers correct
Why do people have children outside of marriage smh. So stupid.
Some of us want children & not a financial & emotional mess later in life. Feel free to keep your judgemental ass opinions to yourself k pumpkin
Haha I agree. Because people are lost and this culture of men don’t want to marry, nor do the woman. I wanted marriage and was married before . Big fail. Sad culture we live in. Thankful God woke me yp
What’s more stupid is that you think married parents can’t be stupid financially. What does being unmarried with kids have to do with a budget show. Oh yeah nothing you are just stuck in the 60’s.

@@mirrorimage9224 I had to use it for daily living, but since then I work in healthcare, serve on the side, and perform live music. I have worked 3 jobs ever since that show. That was just my mat leave . The show isn’t accurate, no reality show is .
Are there drugs involved here? And why didn't she get custody of her two older sons? Too lazy to work? Drugs?
… um because we share my older two duh . Unbelievable how mean people can be
I also was on mat leave from working a hospital job here as a medical clerk. None of what is said is true . I worked at st Joseph’s healthcare for 10 years and have a pin to show for my 10 years of service . Do your research before you point a finger
@@BonnieHamilton Thank you. That was not explained in the show. Now, I am interested in why you do not have custody of your older kids. Probably none of my business. Best of luck.
@@suetipping4841 we didn’t have an order . My Ex just took them from me. I was only 21 and he was much older . Abusive relationship that for years I couldn’t fight. Now my older boys have been reconciled to me, my parents helped me out. I was so young and taken advantage of . My story is whacked tbh . Years of domestic abuse starting at the age of 18 years old with my first husband. I have since stoped the cycle and found freedom as a follower and disciple of Jesus. My church family have supported me and helped me get back on my feet. The cycle is broken finally !
@@BonnieHamilton See, now? i can relate to everything you told us here. I have a similar background. Cycle broken and Jesus saved me and my sons who are now close to 50-. I have been blessed. God keep you.
