"I come from strong parents and we've always had honest conversations," the former First Lady of Empowerment Temple A.M.E. Church said of not being afraid to say exactly what she means. "If you're somebody's real good girlfriend, you got to have an honest conversation and you have to call them out."

Although they are constantly at each other's throats, the love between the two is evident. "If she needs me or I need her, we have each other's backs," Bryant said of their years-long friendship. "She's been there for me and with my kids so it's just like real auntie fun."
