Billy O'Toole and Jess Clare went their separate ways long ago but the couple's kids — Joe and Taylor — have kept them connected. In today's episode of 'Families of The Mafia' however, that last string holding them together has snapped. Jess has moved on with a new man and the kids love him.

They went out for dinner and it was a healthy conversation all along. However, Joe wanted to make sure that his mother was happy and didn't have to go through heartbreak. 

He excused himself for a cigarette break and asked the new guy to join him. As they smoked, Joe told him that his mother and sister have been through a lot and asked him to be patient with them, and not be scared of what they were going through. 

It is obvious for any kid to be bothered about a parent who is trying for a fresh start and Joe is not wrong in being concerned about Jess, who has indeed, seen a lot in her life. He only wants to be a protective kid. 

Speaking of protective, Billy, on the other hand, doesn't like the idea of Jess dating someone new. Is he insecure and wants to get back with Jess? Even if he did want to, Jess made it very clear she wants nothing to do with him and asked him to stay out of her way.

However, Billy cleared it out with her and said she can do what she wants to but he was only looking out for his kids. Meanwhile, fans are supportive of Jess' choice. 

"#familiesofthemafia Jess is laying it all out there when she was doing that, You can see Billy's face went from red to white real quick," a fan wrote. Another shared: "#familiesofthemafia I am glad this woman got a decent bf. Billy is beyond overstepping. His kids are adults and happy for mom."

"Billy needs to get over himself. It's a little late play overprotective dad. #familiesofthemafia," one user posted. "Jess low but highkey shaded tf out of Billy in his face #FamiliesOfTheMafia," another tweeted.
