In a heated Married to Medicine episode, Dr. Simone Whitmore clashed with her son Michael over paying for his law school and a $60,000 credit card bill. The 22-year-old pushed back against claims of entitlement in a family livestream. Despite the drama, they've reached a compromise and upgraded his ride to a Tesla.
Oh honey, the tea from Married to Medicine is piping hot! Dr. Simone Whitmore's son Michael, the 22-year-old gearing up for law school in fall 2026, just spilled on that viral family blowup. During a dinner hosted by Michael and his brother Miles, things got messy when Michael expected Mom to foot the bill for tuition, citing her solid income. "I don’t feel like I should be footing the bill for anything other than the roof over your head," Simone fired back, reminding him she hustled with scholarships and loans for her doctorate. 😤
Michael didn't back down, pointing out generational gaps: "Their parents pay for their way for everything, then they get out of college debt free and are millionaires!" Hubby Cecil agreed they're "blessed" enough to help, leaving Simone feeling ganged up on. She stormed off, calling Michael "so f*g entitled" and declaring, "I’m done! I don’t owe you a motherf* thing from here … I’ve given you everything I have to give!"
The $60K credit card bombshell? Michael was shocked: "I never knew I spent $60K," he admitted. In a later confessional, Simone confessed it was painful to watch, wanting to "choke him out" over his entitlement. But cooler heads prevailed—Michael will take loans for school, with Simone offering conditional support. No more wild spending, she insisted on Watch What Happens Live.
Fast-forward to the family's IG Live recap: Michael shut down the mooch narrative, noting he's worked since 16 and is "very aware that I’m blessed." He clarified it was a miscommunication—he just wanted some help, not all. They didn't speak for two to three weeks, but now? "We were just in New York having a blast," he said. And that Jeep upgrade? "I drive a Tesla, so BOW," Michael declared, flipping off the haters. Passionate family vibes intact. 💅 So, is this just Whitmore passion or a sign of bigger boundaries ahead?
