Recently on a T.I.’s podcast ExpediTIously, Mo’Nique and her husband Sydney sat down to talk about what the actress has learned about how to be a good wife with T.I. and his wife Tiny (a couple that seems to have been able to maintain their marriage through more than a few storms).  According those lesson’s came from Sydney’s grandmother that she never met however the lessons came in the stories that she heard about her.

“When I say I had to learn my place as a black man’s wife, and this was the part that was challenging for me because ‘we gon’ do this’. But when that woman sat at that table and said ‘I trusted your father even when he didn’t make the right decisions, I had to let him make those decisions’. –Mo’Nique
