*Today, the ladies of “The Real” discuss the need for prenups and non-disclosure agreements (NDA) in certain relationships, especially for those who are up-and-coming in their careers.
Co-host Loni Love reveals why she made boyfriend James sign an NDA and co-host Adrienne Houghton wonders if all the hosts should have signed one, too, knowing that Loni has a memoir being released soon.
Loni Love: In certain relationships, and you know if you coming up, that you need to make them sign an NDA. Because…
Amanda Seales: What does NDA stand for?
Loni: Non-disclosure agreement.
Jeannie Mai: Non-disclosure agreement.
Loni: I don’t care whether you on television or not. If you know you’re coming up in the world and things are happening- ‘cause you notice how all of a sudden- like, Jessica Simpson and all of them are writing these books? And they’re telling their side of the story and everything?
Jeannie: Everything.
Loni: Possibly, if they had an NDA, they couldn’t do that. ‘Cause that could ruin your brand. Somebody making false- I’m not saying what she’s saying is false…
Adrienne Houghton: But, just in general.
Amanda: But, your perspective is different.
Loni: In general- You know what I’m sayin’? It could really hurt your brand. It could hurt, you know, you as a person.
Adrienne: That’s a great point!
Loni: You might consider that.
Adrienne: So, if you’re doing prenups or agreements contractually before moving in together, maybe before going into a serious relationship, you should consider an NDA.
Loni: Yeah. I mean, I’m just sayin’. I have one, you know. I made James sign one.
Jeannie: It’s not gonna stand…
Tamera: You did? Whoooa… You made James sign one?
Loni: Yeah. Because the NDA isn’t for him. It’s because of the people around him.
Tamera: Ah!
Adrienne: Question. Question. You wrote a book. Should we have signed an NDA?
Tamera: (Laughs)
Loni: Yeah, you should have.
(The Real audience laughs)
Adrienne: That’s why she’s saying it! That’s why- she just put us- a warning out there… But the warning for us is a little too late.
Amanda: Not for me.
Loni: But, I did not say anything ba- (To Amanda) No, you’re not in the book, yet. ‘Cause that’s another chapter.
Amanda: Yet.
Adrienne: Yet.
Loni: But, I did not say anything, um… defamatory… about you. You know what I mean? I wouldn’t that. See, that’s what I’m saying. It depends on the person, too.
Tamera: Yeah.
Loni: You get with a person- I know James isn’t gonna, you know uh, “She’s a freak.” Uh, yes I am.
