Sheen Magazine recently had the pleasure of sitting down with Lateasha “Sweet Tea” Lunceford, the dynamic new star of Bravo’s “Married to Medicine.” In our in-depth interview, she candidly discussed the most pressing topics from the current season, offering insights into her personal experiences and relationships within the cast.

Navigating Tensions with Dr. Heavenly Kimes

Throughout Season 11, viewers have witnessed ongoing tensions between Sweet Tea and Dr. Heavenly Kimes. Dr. Heavenly has previously made disparaging remarks about various aspects of Sweet Tea’s life, including her struggles with endometriosis, her marriage to Dr. Gregory Lunceford, and unfounded accusations of gold-digging. In our conversation, Sweet Tea opened up about these conflicts, sharing her perspective on Dr. Heavenly’s behavior and questioning whether such actions should be tolerated by both the cast and the audience.

The Love Story with Dr. Gregory Lunceford

Sweet Tea and Dr. Gregory Lunceford’s relationship began in a modern way: she confidently reached out to him via Instagram following his divorce from ex-wife and fellow cast member Quad Webb. Their connection quickly blossomed, leading to an engagement in 2022 during a memorable vacation, and culminating in a beautiful wedding in Atlanta in April 2023. When asked how she managed to stand out in Dr. Gregory’s direct messages, Sweet Tea emphasized the importance of authenticity and genuine connection. She also addressed the curiosity surrounding whether other women continue to approach her husband online, providing candid insights into their relationship dynamics.

Addressing Age Differences and Public Perception

The couple’s 23-year age difference—Sweet Tea is 32, while Dr. Gregory is 56—has been a topic of public discussion. Critics have unfairly labeled her as a gold digger, questioning the sincerity of her love for Dr. Gregory. In our interview, Sweet Tea responded to these accusations with grace, articulating her genuine affection for her husband and challenging the stereotypes associated with age-gap relationships.

Looking Ahead: Family and Future Plans

As they settle into married life, Sweet Tea and Dr. Gregory are excited about their future together. She shared their hopes and plans, including the possibility of expanding their family. Despite facing challenges, including public scrutiny and personal health struggles, Sweet Tea remains optimistic and focused on building a fulfilling life with her husband.
