Roommates, Richard Jones and Jill Scott are cuttin’ up this week with some nostalgic acting. Some actors can play a role a lil’ too well, making viewers hold on to character grudges. That’s definitely the case for Richard’s character, Mike, and how he treated his wife-to-ex, Sheila, in the ‘Why Did I Get Married?’ films.

Richard Jones & Jill Scott Open ‘Why Did I Get Married?’ Scars
So, here’s a brief recap of Mike and Sheila’s messy marriage in the first ‘Why Did I Get Married?’ There’s a heartbreaking scene in the film when Mike tells Sheila she has to drive to their couples’ cabin trip rather than fly on the plane. He gives her a few dollars and flies to the getaway with another woman. Later, at the dinner table, we learn the woman is actually his mistress. In response, Sheila smashes a wine bottle on Mike’s head.

In an Oct. 18 post, Richard T. Jones shared a selfie video of him shaking his head while sitting on a plane. The video had the text, “POV: I had to make Sheila drive again.” Meanwhile, he captioned the post, “IYKYK.”
The scene is 17 years old, y’all. But The Shade Room’s roommates weren’t feeling Richard’s jokey joke. Throwing salt in our movie wounds!

@coopdajuice joked, “The ladies will never forgive him for that.” And @marty_sandiego added, “This is why we still don’t like you.”
@imitationbyjerell dropped a wine bottle GIF in the comment section, while @theonealsway said, “They do got a good sale on Shutter Home Wines today.”
Ms. Sheila, AKA Jill Scott, circled the block with the perfect response to Richard, though! Filming from her car, Scott called Mike out for leaving Sheila hanging again.
“I can’t believe it. I cannot believe that Mike would do this to me again. Well, I’m gonna get up this mountain. I’m getting up this mountain,” Jill Scott said with a lil’ emotion in her voice.
