Bride & Prejudice: Forbidden Love

An interfaith couple from Baltimore, a gay couple from Boston and an interracial couple from Houston face opposition from family members and friends who disapprove of their decision to get married.

Briana's cousin refuses to be involved with any interracial marriage; Eugene suggests that Samantha convert to Judaism; Chris and Lou must make a decision about a wedding ceremony kiss.

With only three weeks to the weddings, Eugene takes Samantha to his family's old neighborhood to help her understand their point of view. Lou and Chris receive a $14,000 florist bill, which magnifies the lack of family support. And when her cousin raises the issue of Adam's Father's racist past, Briana is torn between her family and the man she loves.

With only two weeks to the weddings, Chris's mom comes between Lou and Chris, and the boys split up. Briana pushes Adam and Ashlyn together...but chaos erupts. And Samantha considers converting, but brother Alex is still on the warpath.

With only days to the weddings: a difficult meeting between Samantha and a rabbi causes a rift between Eugene and his brother. And when several of Chris' family members don't show for the rehearsal, Lou calls off the wedding. Adam goes face-to-face with Ashlyn, leading Briana and Adam into a fight, which might destroy their relationship.

In this special 2-hour season finale, it's wedding time. But family pressures have driven the couples apart. Chris tries to re-convince Lou to marry him. Briana and Adam call a pre-marital counselor to try to help them overcome their issues. While Samantha convinces Eugene to make one last ditch effort to change his brother's mind. Will the weddings take place...will family prejudice tear the couples apart...or can love truly conquer all?

Three star-crossed couples are ready and waiting to get married, but unfortunately, all face opposition from their families. Over the next four weeks, the couples will work with a relationship expert to help find common ground with their parents who have been dead-set against their unions from the start. By the end of this social experiment, if they cannot get their families’ approval, each couple will have to decide whether to get married, or fulfill their parents’ wishes, and break up.

The couples confront their skeptical parents and shock them with plans to get married in a matter of weeks. Relationship expert, Pastor Calvin Roberson, meets the couples' parents for the first time and hears their concerns about their child's choice of partner, resulting in verbal fireworks and hurt feelings.

Blair and Chris confront Blair’s head-strong mother about her apparent prejudice leading to a shocking revelation about her own husband; Willi and Cameron face even greater resistance from their respective families over religion; and Kareem’s mother rejects his dream of adopting Kee Kee’s son.

The couples get together socially and press each other on their progress. Willi finally gets enough courage to ask Cameron for what she really wants, but doesn’t get the answer she was hoping for. All of the families sit down with Cal in one room for an explosive session with everyone in each other’s business. Are our couples one step closer to their happy ending or are they opening a Pandora’s Box of new issues.

When the parents are tasked with figuring out what it will take for them to give their blessing, Michael and Leah decide to confront Cameron about his unwillingness to convert. Kelly pushes boundaries and interrogates Chris only to be met with resistance. While Marvaline goes to extreme measures to know whether Kareem can be trusted, causing him to question whether his relationship with Kee Kee is worth the trouble.

Cal instructs the couples to bring their families together by hosting a dinner with both sets of parents. But the meals all end up leaving a bad taste in their mouths: Blair mistakenly thinks Korean BBQ might help Kelly understand Chris better, Willi and Cameron don’t want to talk about kids over dinner, and Kee Kee and Kareem’s moms unite in their disapproval.
