Chapter 5: What is the reality show 'Meet the Burns' about?

87.714 - 104.702 Narrator

And like Ronnell goes out and buys her a new Maserati and they're all posting about it on Instagram. But at one point, this is all not enough. And they want to raise their online profile even more. So they try and self-produce their own reality show called Meet the Burns. And they shoot a whole promo for it.

104.922 - 109.264 Keianna Burns

America, you ain't gonna want to miss this. This is my wife, Kiana.

0

109.684 - 116.587 Narrator

Mrs. Burns. And of course, in this show, they make sure to portray themselves as the successful business owners they are.

116.687 - 119.469 Keianna Burns

Man, we gotta move fast, baby, because it's time for big business.

119.609 - 143.466 Narrator

And so these two seem to be doing really well. They're like the ultimate influencer power couple. Until... Here's the thing. Ronnell and Kiana project a lot of success online. But behind the scenes, things are different. They're actually struggling financially. In fact, almost all of their business ventures are failing. The only semi-successful ones they have are her hair salons.

143.686 - 168.699 Narrator

But apparently that's just not enough to keep them afloat. Mostly because they've been spending a lot of money on stupid shit in order to flex on social media. And soon enough, all this spending catches up to them. And they've racked up over half a million dollars in debt. Debt that they're just not able to pay back. So then, boom, they file for bankruptcy. And this really sucks for them.

168.979 - 190.757 Narrator

But of course, they don't post that part on social media. No, no, they keep flexing and projecting that image of the ultimate entrepreneur power couple. And they act like nothing is wrong. In fact, two years later, despite their financial troubles, they decide to move the whole family to a bigger city. One where they'll have even more business opportunity. Atlanta.

191.017 - 215.602 Narrator

And of course, while they're there, they keep flexing online and they just keep spending money. And they rent a huge 5,200 square foot house with five bedrooms and seven bathrooms. And they allegedly tell their followers, not that they're renting it, but that they bought it. Now, despite them projecting all this success online, again, behind the scenes, things are different.

215.822 - 239.857 Narrator

The big move to Atlanta just doesn't seem to be going great for them. And it's been particularly hard on Kiana, who's been having some really bad days since she moved there. And to make it worse, at some point, life just drops a bomb on her. She finds out that Ron L has allegedly been cheating on her. Similar to what he had done to his previous wife, now he's doing it to her. No!
