*On Thursday, May 9, the ladies of The Real discuss whether new mom Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex should feel obligated to reconcile with her estranged father and half-siblings so that her newborn son can develop a relationship with them. Also, when the co-hosts bring up a recent behind-the-scenes challenge Adrienne reveals her fiercely competitive side.
Then presidential candidate Senator Cory Booker visits to talk about what drives his passion for gun control, his proposed bill to combat maternal mortality and whether his girlfriend, actress Rosario Dawson, is up for being First Lady if he wins his bid for The White House.
Later, actress Lorraine Toussaint (pictured above with the ladies) stops by to chat about her television series The Village, her psychic abilities and her thoughts about doing nude scenes at the age of 60.
