Monique and Derek from 'Love After Lockup' talk trust issues and infidelity.

Although Monique and Derek have had their issues in the past, the couple said that they’re only centered at the long run at the present time. Monique addressed her guy’s critics, noting that viewers simplest see “the person Derek was when he first were given out of prison,” versus who he is today.

“They have been just saying like, I'm still with this man that cheated on me and made some of these mistakes," Monique told us. “This was literally the first couple of weeks he got out of prison. Like, that's not the same man that I'm dealing with now.”

Since the cameras stopped rolling, the couple said that they’ve gotten a chance to “learn each other,” and rebuild trust. But according to Monique, moving forward meant “a lot of forgiveness” on her part. “It took a lot of growth on both ends for us to fully understand each other and get to the place that we're at right now,” the Love After Lockup star shared.

Derek said he doesn’t blame Monique for her trust issues and takes “full responsibility” for the hurt he caused her in the past. “I knew what I where I went wrong,” Derek admitted. “Now that I'm doing better and treating her better and being faithful, we don't have to worry about that no more.”

When did Derek cheat on Monique? The ‘Love After Lockup’ drama explained.

Just days after Derek got out of prison, he reconnected with an old friend … a friend that he also happens to have sex with from time to time.

Although Monique and Derek saw a rift in their relationship after Monique discovered Derek’s texts to this other woman, they try to work things out in “Fresh Out Glow”. But, before they can make amends, Derek has a sit down with Monique’s sisters.

In an exclusive Love After Lockup clip obtained by Distractify, they press him for the truth. Understandably, their questions make Derek defensive. “She probably told y’all her side of the story, now y’all wanna hear my side of the story,” he says in the clip.

He goes on to assert that he’s not the only one that’s been misbehaving in their relationship. “We was going through it with my sisters and y'all all arguing and then she started disrespecting me [and] I started disrespecting her,” he told Monique’s sisters.

Monique admitted that she had called Derek a “b---h" on multiple instance. “But I wasn’t cheating,” she added.

Derek then shared that he had previously instructed Monique that he used to be speaking to someone else … he just didn’t inform her that any person was another girl.

“She's doing bulls--t too, she lying,” Derek went on.
