This week Peacock premiered their three-part series Eat Slay Love which follows Nivea, Eva Marcille, Tammy Rivera and London Hughes on a three city tour across Vietnam to celebrate Nivea's birthday and find the peace and fulfillment they're seeking.



BOSSIP Sr. Content Director JaneƩ Bolden chatted up Eva, Tammy and Nivea ahead of the series debut this week to discuss their experience, starting with why they chose Vietnam as the perfect destination for soul searching and sisterhood.

"Why not?" Nivea told BOSSIP. "Seriously it was just somewhere that was so kind of foreign to us, as being not explored, we have never been. It's quite a large place and we wanted to experience the culture and you know, why not?"

"Nivea is a maverick, she is a unconventional and not to go against the grain, but she beats to her own drum and she makes amazing music so that melody slaps," Eva added. "She is her own thing, so Vietnam it made sense it was it was very Nivea, it was very like, 'Let's go explore!"

"And it was hard to find a place that none of us have ever been to, there's a lot of places that we've been, so it was like narrowing it down was tough," Tammy continued.

"I must say it was even more shocking once we got there," Nivea explained. "Like - this was perfect. We didn't expect to give what we got out of it and inside and out. Just to the experience and what we got to see and do, it was just perfect."

Both Nivea and Tammy Rivera have experienced high profile divorces - [Nivea was married to singer/songwriter producer Terius "The Dream" Gesteelde-Diamant, previously known as Terius Nash, from 2004-2008 while Rivera is the former spouse of rapper Waka Flocka Flame, aka Juaquin Malphurs. They were married from 2014-2022.] Throughout the episodes, the women are there to support Eva Marcille, whose 2023 divorce from attorney Michael Sterling was very fresh at the time Eat Slay Love was filmed.

"The Big D!" the three ladies chimed, nearly in unison, when asked about divorce being the common thread they share and what it was like doing a girls trip while healing.

"I keep using the same word but - cathartic," Eva Marcille told BOSSIP about trekking Vietnam after ending her marriage. " It was very healthy for me. I'm a person where I don't like to lie to myself so I'm not going to lie to others and this was a very difficult time, but to deal with it and to try to get through it I had to be honest."

"I was actually shocked by your level of openness," Tammy Rivera interjected.

"Me too," Nivea added. "I just didn't think you was gonna be that open either. She was ready to pour it out and share with us.

"Because it's either that or don't come because this is my life, this is what I'm going through," Eva continued. "And I was like I was going to be way more private but then I realized that you guys have been through some of my reality. It was an exchange going on. I mean exes, who are like very famous, you lived your life in the public before divorce and raising children, yeah so I feel like if anyone could actually relate to what I'm going through and then try to help me reconcile these feelings it was Nivea and Tam because they just they get it."
