On paper, Jessica and Maurice seem like they are meant to be. But the woman is starting to have her doubts.

In this week's episode of 'Love After Lockup', we see the couple meet with each other outside of prison for the first time in the four-and-a-half years they have been dating. One can see she loves him but her confessional paints a different story. Jessica believes that she has been the only one in his life ever since they got married but he was seeing another girl who was sending him money. "You have to be married to get conjugal visit rights. So, maybe Maurice has been using me for these last four-and-a-half years for sex," Jessica said. 

This was the exact situation Jessica's parents had predicted. Her father feared that he would con him and her sister cut ties with her. However, her mother was supportive of her decision to marry a former inmate. When Jessica was being attacked by her parents, she shut them down by saying she was confident of Maurice and that he is a good man because he is a father to a daughter. But is that enough to keep him out of crime? Only time will tell. 

Meanwhile, fans seem to be certain that Maurice will not only use her for sex but also rob her of money and push her into the world of crime. "Jessica b***h Maurice is about to run your pockets scam you and have your a** doing criminal activity. #LoveAfterLockUp," a fan commented. Another shared, "We grew up totally different. He was a compton crip — that's the gang he was in. Best believe maurice bout to ruin jessica's life and make her do s**t she normally wouldn't bc she dumb a** hell."

"The fact that she thinks that he is no longer in a gang proves that she is green as hell and is about to be taken for a ride," a user tweeted. "She won't be able to buy a pair of socks on credit when he finishes with her," a viewer expressed.
