WeTV’s rather unusual dating reality series, Love During Lockup, will soon be airing the next intense and dramatic episode. This show is originally a spin-off of another We TV show titled Love After Lockup. Though both the shows deal with similar themes, Love During Lockup is undeniably more exciting, because most of the people the show is about are still in jail.
It was announced to be in production way back in October of 2021 and finally premiered on television by January 2022. The first season made it clear that these couples were indeed communicating beyond bars, with texts, letters, and timed phone calls. Most of the relationships from last season ended on bitter notes, and this season seems to be heading the same way.
Season 2 of Love During Lockup is based on new couples, with only Tai & Hottie, the iconic (for all the bad reasons) couple returning once again. Their relationship has always been toxic and after last week’s episode, things finally seem to be over between them. Two out of seven couples have already broken up, and the number will be increasing as we approach the end of this season.
Love During Lockup: The Atypical Couples
People have always agreed that love is blind but can it be blind enough to ignore the fact that they’re incarcerated? These couples prove that love can be found before, after, and even during lockup. Season 2 features the story of 7 such couples, who’ve met each other through Facebook, PenPal sites, cousins, and many other ways. They include:
- Chelsea & Mike
- Tai & Hottie
- Emily & Dauri
- Melissa & Louie
- Jessica & Dustin
- Justine & Michael
- Mark & Sincer A
Out of all these couples, Mark and Sincer A broke up. Tai, who had always been after Hottie even while having relationships with other men, has now broken off her engagement. Jessica might be heading towards a breakup as well, especially after finding out that Dustin was involved in substance abuse.
Love During Lockup Season 2 Episode 7: Recap
In last week’s episode 7, we see Tai being angry as she had found out that Hottie got engaged to Boston as well. She calls him and breaks the engagement. Considering her past behavior, we can’t be sure if Tai won’t be going back to him. She also burns all his belongings and sends some ashes to Boston. Jessica goes to meet Dustin, but since he was involved in some trouble again, she’s not allowed to meet him.
The married couple, Justine and Michael seem to be doing well until Justine’s family members were skeptical about how Michael was able to buy a car for Justine. He gets mad at her for asking about it, but when Justine has a chat with his sister, she finds out that she’s not the only one who’s received the special gesture.
Chelsea and Pamela, Mike’s mom, head over to a Law office to talk about Mike’s case. He had recently gotten a stroke but was denied proper medical care. The attorney claims that this could indeed be a violation of rights and can be pursued. Chelsea also finds out about many other felonies that Mike had hidden. Due to Mark’s narcissistic nature, Sincer A ends all relations with him, in the presence of his mom.

Love During Lockup Season 2 Episode 8: What To Expect?
In the upcoming episode of Love During Lockup, we’ll be seeing Justine confront Michael about his past relationships, and how he hid the fact that he gifted cars to other women as well. Chelsea is now on a quest to charge the people who made Mike suffer, but inmates cannot be trusted with their words. She tries to meet him to get a better picture of what happened.
Since Jessica was advised by one of her colleagues and friend to stop loving Dustin, she had no choice but to give up on their relationship.
