Season 8 of Love After Lockup introduced us to New Mexico couple Joynomi and Redd, who have been together for seven years.
They started talking online, but never actually met in person. And because of the distance, their relationship has struggled at times. As Joynomi has previously revealed, she cheated on Redd and it resulted in the birth of her son Sway. Joynomi isn’t actually sure who Sway’s biological father is.
Fortunately, Redd has forgiven Joynomi’s infidelity and has agreed to step in as Sway’s father figure. However, that’s a huge thing to promise a partner whom you’ve never met in person. Will Sway and Joynomi’s relationship last in the real world? In an exclusive clip of Love After Lockup obtained by Distractify ahead of the Oct. 27 episode, Joynomi and Redd finally meet for the first time and it seems like they might just be able to make this work.

Joynomi admits she hasn’t kissed anyone in forever and hints that it's a little awkward. “We feel like we’re brand new to it. We don’t know what we’re doing but we’ll learn together."
As for how Redd feels about Joynomi, he is over the moon.
"This is my baby right here. I love her," he says to the cameras, claiming Joynomi is the "missing piece of my puzzle." As he hugs her, he teases: “I’m trying to get married today.”
