Debbie xx I feel for all but especially her parents. They will never get the bone with her she's grown now. All that time they've been going crazy and stressing probably fighting each other should have had a lawsuit against the hospital.
I feel bad for him she thought that he was her father, and didn’t like that he was never there for her, in reality he had no reason to be “there for her” because she wasn’t related to him at all.
My heart goes out to the biological parents who have missed out on raising their daughter. The pain and suffering with sleepless nights they must have endured.
Her biological father was in prison when she was born because he was an adult and Alexis mother was a minor. He's a gold teethed druggy looking guy in interviews. The family that raised Alexis is a far better family than Alexis biological family. Not that that made the kidnapping right, of course.
Dorene Mellene I will literally kill that bitch who kidnapped my kid I don't care if my kid wanted her more then me imagining all those years in pain what a horrible person
drServitis the woman who kidnapped her was also a career criminal, she had a long rap sheet, also, her pertner, who is the father was also in prison.. you have no right to judge people without knowing all facts. its their child, they were not even given a chance to raise her, how do you know if they werent going to be better?
Me Wendy she stole someone else’s motherhood before they were even given a chance. There are people who make it out of the ghetto and make a better life for them and their kids. There is no excuses for that lady’s actions.
Yes she will. I hope she will be ok. My heart just breaks for her and when that time comes I hope she will allow her natural mother to be there with her and for her it will be hard for the both of them but I believe it will be necessary for them to heal as a family.
You are right, but the woman seemed to have done a great job raising her loving her..it's still unforgiving what she did. I don't think she will ever hate her even when she will have her own.
Green Eyes Chavis first of all she is/was 18 years old then, and she can clearly understand it. Second, if you found out ur parents were not ur reals ones and u were stolen what would u think?
Y'all aren't looking at it in the right fucking way shes 18 !!!! THIS WOMAN AND MAN R THE PARENTS SHE KNOWN HER WHOLE LIFE. THEY MADE A FAMILY SHE WAS LOVED AD THEIR OWN. the stole her she knows that and she knows it bad but is she bout to be like omg I hate you so much for stealing me I I never wanna talk to you ever again. NO CUZ THAT HER MOTHER NOT HER BIOLOGICAL MOTHER BUT HER MOTHERRRRRRR
Brittany Daniel first of all I would like to say you are a beautiful black woman are you married? First of all imagine this you gave birth to a baby girl somebody comes around when you're asleep hours later and still your baby. You don't know what happened the hospital tells you that someone stole your baby this is the most traumatize experience that you would have in your life I know some people would commit suicide. This woman stole your most precious thing in your life and deprive you of the chance of raising it for 18 years. Could even be longer if she did confessed to the crime. This woman have committed a hideous act that cannot be for forgot or forgiven my first analysis of death penalty is over reaching but life imprisonment would be better suited for this person. Because death penalty would be too easy for her to get out from the wrong that she did she need life imprisonment so she can think about it for the rest of her life that to me is a better torture for this woman.
Brittany Daniel Sweetie, schools do not check authenticity of documents. That happens when you apply for jobs, that is why the mom told her the truth. All information would come back as invalid.
It doesn't not matter weather the mother looked like a junkie was ghetto or whatever else fact still remain THAT WAS HER BABY that she gave birth to and loved and she wanted her child back
The dad looked and still looks like a junkie crack head and the mom was and still is loud and ghetto. I hate to say this but her life would have been worse with her biological family.
Marlee D how can you say that based off appearance ? anybody can look some type of way .. it doesn’t matter , you can’t take somebody’s child without giving them a chance to care for her .. 🤨 if they were both at the hospital & not leaving her there or acting like they didn’t want her then they were most likely good damn parents .. you can’t judge a book by its cover
Every single time I hear this young lady say "I still love my Mom. I am not mad at her and the love I have for her will never change regardless". Oh!! my heart literally breaks for her biological parents. Especially her Mom who was 16 years old when she lost her new born baby. She probably never ever really got over losing her child. Then to get her back and hear her long lost baby say such honorable things about her abductor. 💔😥
It's almost like she has a chip on her shoulder as in, yall would have raised me in the hood, they gave me everything I needed, how can I turn my back on he attitude. It's a sickening sad. The girl will not evening bring herself to say the woman was wrong. Like did she even acknowledge it ever?
Rachael Rojo nothing complex about this case at all this is a criminal that's stole a baby at birth from her biological mother this is a criminal who stole the love that she should've gotten from a biological mother this is a crime there should be no sympathy at all for this woman. No sympathy I don't feel sorry for this woman one bit
There is nothing complex in regards to the kidnapper, it is complex when it comes to Alexis aka Kamiyah. Of course in legal terms that doesn't matter, the kidnapper will be punished, but Alexis is definitely going to be messed up for life.
It is a complex case. Yes the kidnapper should be punished but IDK about LIFE imprisonment, ppl should consider her miscarriage and recognize her mental health issues that needs to be dealt with.. also consider her relationship with the child, yes the child needs to develop a relationship with her biological parents but don't take away the mother she grew to love and leave her with strangers (Ik they're more than this technically).. tbh Idk how they would really sort out the problem
Eon PaHRaye this should have never been a relationship from the beginning if this kidnapper didn't take her for birth this woman deserve the death penalty in my book. I don't care about her miscarriage or anything that doesn't matter to me just she commit a crime. Don't Give me a sob story because I don't give a shit you need to go to jail for life. That girl missed out 18 years of life growing up with her biological parents I don't give a fuck if they was poor just because you live better don't make it right to be fucking stealing someone's baby you piece of shit
I feel bad for her real mother who now has to listen to her daughter (who was stolen from her) talk about how much she loves this woman and her feelings won't ever change and that is still her mother and she had the best life ever. Like it I was her real mother that would really fuck me up. Another time she was like "i mean ill give them a chance" in reference to her real family. That would really suck to hear as her bio mom.
Its sad that some people judge others based on their appearance..being ignorant. They might be hood or ghetto as u say.But some of the greatest achievers came from the hood.Jesus Christ grew up in the hood and had no flaws.He gave his life for us all..even the foolish..Walk a mile in their shoes ..bet you will change that tune
Her bio is causing more pain for herself. People can't stop loving someone because they find out it was all a lie. Her bio need to stop voicing her hurt publicly with such bitterness for Kamiyah. At the end of the day Kamiyah wasn't part of the plane to be kidnapped!!! Her bio wants her to stop loving her kidnapper. That will probable never happen.
I bet she targeted this women so she would feel less guilt... like taking a baby away from a stable home would have crushed her... but taking her out of the ghettos, away from a teen mom and incarcerated father, made her feel better about her decision.
Brand Factory Media yea so you are saying nobody cares in the hood about older men being with young girls??? Check yourself because that's false we have good and ratchets in ever race. I'm guessing with your comment you are part of the nobody's who do t care... ratchet low class
"She made 1 mistake & I was loved " . im crying real tears this is sad. ! I would loose my mind. When she has her baby. I hope she realized what she went through.
That lady needs to do Life in jail. The premeditated act does not go away because she was "nice". The parents went through hell wondering about their child. I have no sympathy for that woman.
Exactly!!!!! The premeditated act does not go away. I mean, that’s like saying, “I robbed a bank, but I took my kids to Disneyland.” Ummm...you STILL robbed a bank. Or, “I stole your car, but I drove a group of nuns to the beach.” Seriously? The absolutely wonderful, positively fantastic way (being sarcastic, of course) she raised that STOLEN baby does not erase the fact that she STOLE a baby!!!! OMG!!!!!
Sorry (not sorry) can’t let this go. She stole that baby. She ‘raised’ her, sure, and ‘gave’ things to her. But what about all that she ‘took’ from her. A completely different upbringing with different possibilities and missed opportunities. A whole lot of stolen what ifs, and maybes. So many lost chance encounters, crossed paths never to be realized with different turns of events. If the good Lord had meant this path for her, that evil being would have given birth to her. But He didn’t and therefore she didn’t. Hope this makes sense...
I can understand how the girl feels still loving the women that kidnapped her but I feel like she's not thinking of how it effected her biological parents
PLW I understand she still loves Gloria because that’s the person that raised her, but I don’t think she she’ll understand the pain her birth mom has until she has her first born.
The only victim is the biological parents. 18 years of not knowing if your child is dead or alive is hard. I'm sure the girl was advised to keep quiet until she turned 18 so she couldn't be forced to live with her bio parents. The abducter is a sick woman and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
To be honest.. she shouldn't be. What would you rather do, live a life of poverty, crime, prostituin with a teen mom and a felon of a father... or a women who could afford to give you a good life?
Galaxy Cat yes she should. That lady needs to spend a very long time in prison. It’s good she raised her however she stole someone else’s parenthood before they were even given a chance. I honestly feel more sympathy for the birth mom I can’t imagine what she’s been going through these past 18 years or even now.
Amen Tracy. What she did was wrong and now the girl is a psychological mess! She wasn't loved. That woman is selfish, ignorant and needs to be locked up to feel the real mother's pain. She can't control the girl anymore, so now she's sorry. Give it a break woman!
I'm reading the comments and it amazes me how no one is acknowledging that a BABY was stolen from a HOSPITAL(where security bracelets are placed on them), video cameras are all over the place. How is it that she was able to walk out with the baby and no one noticed?
Marcia Mullen, Yes which mean inside job! I think I would have been crazy. Someone told that a teenager was having a baby bcz apparently the kidnapper could have any kids.
Cut the bracelet off and act normal. Literally keep your head down so cameras dont catch your face. Hospitals are busy, nobody would blink twice at a woman carrying a baby out.
Opinions are like assholes,we all have them, she has the right to feel how ever she wants, it doesn't make her nice mean. She is you who she is who she is, everyone is different that's what makes us unique. Judge not. Empathize!
NewStyle Modeling We are in no place to judge her. Her feelings are valid. She didn't know that this lady had kidnapped her until she was in her late teens! Both her and her biological mother (along with her bio dad and the dad who raised her) are victims in this situation.
I can't even imagine the suffering the real Mom went through . Carrying a child 9 months , hoping -praying it will be healthy . Finally the day come's .. you go through the pain of labor . Then after all that .. you go home empty handed . No idea what happed to your little girl :(
Exactly!! 1 is too much!! The loss of a child is the most unbearable pain!! And why would you wanna inflict this on someone else? Maybe a better option would have been to seek a surrogate mother to carry your fertilized eggs and give birth to your own biological child!! Seems if she could afford to give this child a better life , she could have afforded this option as well!! This child is confused and living in a state of delusion!! She refuses to see this woman for who she really is!! Her whole life has been one big lie( no fault of hers though)!! One thing I despise most in life is a diabolical liar!! They are very skillful manipulators!! No sympathy for this criminal mastermind kidnapper!! Can’t say what kind of experience the biological mother may or may not have subjected this child to!! I have seen great experiences as well as horrible ones from both sides of the track!! Been living in an affluent suburban area for two decades now and let me tell you”these kids are a hot mess”!! This is just one entire ball of confusion for the child and her biological parents ( they are the real victims as a whole)!! Prayers to them!!
No, it's not. She grew up loving that woman. That is the mother she knew all her life. She's not going to stop loving her/thinking of that woman as her mother. Her biological mother is a stranger. If I found out that my mother isn't my biological mother and stole me, I'm not going to stop thinking of her as my mother and consider the stranger my mother. Doesn't matter how many years I get to know my biological mother. Those early/formative years where I would have considered her my mother if I grew up with her are gone.
@@TheVeriaStarr I agree with you. What people do not get is that Kamiyah is showing real love towards someone who loved her in spite of Gloria's sin. The reason why her bio mom, and her cannot get along is because her bio mother wants her to deny the truth, and Kamyiah refuse to deny her love for Gloria as her mother. Her biological father didn't care about any of that to the extent that he was going to allow what was done affect his relationship with his daughter and he respects her and feels her pain and not just his own. He showed that on" Iylana fix my life". Kamiyah bio mother did not prepare her heart for the reunion of her daughter who did not know her, and this is why she is having such a hard time accepting that her daughter is a stranger to he,r and she is a stranger to her daughter. It is unfair but that's their reality. I pray the mother can get past her pain and do not let what she prayed for all these years to be in vain. For her to let go of the years she lost live for today, and take a friendship with her daughter until her daughter is ready to accept her as her mother. Get the counseling that she needs to move forward towards forgiving and healing.
Let's see..... how does someone have an affair with someone else's husband? Or how is it people can cause someone else to loose their job on a lie? It's all wrong. Children and others suffer as a result of uncaring heartless selfish people. However noone goes to jail because cheating and causing someone not to be able to feed their family is not a crime. The real victim is Kamiyah who lost her idenity for 18 years. People need to let her sort threw this the best way she can. I understand her bio is hurting and was also victimized. However, she must not forget that Kamiyah has the greatest of difficulties to sort through.
@@aprilallen4759 lady you sound foolish comparing this to infidelity .... and you must not understand the mothers the pain the way you sat up here and said however !! No the point is none of this would not had happen had Gloria took her silly ass on else where!! She had no RIGHT to do what she did.
If i was her biological mom, I would not try to force her to have a relationship with me or make her feel guilty about it but I would continue to keep in touch and let her know that I love her. Thats really all the biological mom can do because her child built a 18 year bond with another woman she though was her mom.
I don't know how you can live with yourself if you steal a child from someone, raise her as your own child, living a "out-right" LIE. How can you look at yourself in the mirror, sleep at night, looking at this child that's not yours, realizing the pain you've inflicted on another person, don't you have a conscience? She should NEVER get out of jail. That's beyond "evil"!!
This girl is very smart and assured....you can tell by the way she speaks and her vocabulary....she was raised very well....her behaviour in the interview...well spoken and assured.....
Perfekshun514 if you went through this you’d be full of rage too . She’s still a kid not knowing how to process all of this with all the cameras in her face her biological mother saying she’d show up on the show and didn’t played a huge part in her blow up . I don’t think she was ready period
Wow talk about turning the knife, it wasn't enough to steal her baby and keep her till legal age, also stole her heart and love that was for her real mother that she now will never have. Zero sympathy give her one year for every year ripped from her REAL mother and spit on the key!! Pathetic and evil my heart out to real mama so,sorry.
The kidnapper is a terrible person. I feel bad for the biological parents and the daughter. She doesn't know any better than who she was raised by but I feel so bad for the biological parents who have to see their daughter defend a kidnapper. I dont feel bad for the woman who I hope gets a lengthy prison sentence. She knows what she did and gets everything she deserves. The daughter loves a liar who raised a child who wasn't hers and she thinks of her as her mother. I understand why she feels like that but the woman isn't a nice person and she took a baby and has basically lied to that girl for 18 years probably ruining her chance of having the relationship with her real parents that she could of had.
Keeping up with Kim No because Coralina discovered by searching on Google she was a missing child and this story she was founded. Corlina was open to meeting her birth parents while Alexis is more sadden by the lost of her mother that took her from her real parents. She is more reluctant about forming a relationship with them.
Wrong - she was raised by a criminal. Anything she believes is based on lies and deceit. Of course she loves the woman she believes is her mother. Poor child has had her whole life turned inside out. It will take many many years to figure out what is reality and what is lies. I pray she works thru this as soon as possible
It’s nice she feels that way but if I were a mother God forbid this happened idk I’d be forever bitter. Going through 9 months of pregnancy the happiest moment of your life painful childbirth and within hours your baby is gone going home without a baby ( missing ) empty nursery years celebrating her birthday winding if she’s ok smh that bitch stole that woman’s joy she needs to rot
I love how the girl understands that even though the woman who kidnapped her was wrong, she gave her a much better life then she would have had, and loves her for it.
UnscrupulousAgitator I guess it's OK to kidnap a baby at the hospital as long as you can afford to take care of it. If you got a good paying job and money in the bank then why not every person that has this can just go walk into a hospital and say I feel like getting my myself a baby. I don't know what planet are you from but if you think this is OK you're crazy just like the kidnapper is.
I saw this girl on iyanla.. this must be so difficult... But that girl , the one who got kidnapped is So so so Disrespectful. She was definitely NOT raised right, I believe she was spoiled as well. The kidnapper needs to get MAX for what she did.
Jenni G I don't agree. Iyanla caused that outburst. She was messing with feelings and isolating Kamiyah. She pushed her over the edge. Not justifing her actions, because she was very disrespectful. However Iyanla brought that on herself. People need to let Kamiyah process everything while she heals! That's going to take years.
she wasn't disrespectful. i really dont see how anyone who saw that episode can even think that. the girl has a right to be angry and how she expressed it wasn't soooooooo wrong or disrespectful. she was rightfully angry and wasnt rude for no reason at all. she's young and honestly , I respect iyanla , but she shouldn't have been the one to talk to that girl. yeah she's been through a lot, but there is no way she could understand thay. the girl she talked to at the end of the episode who also suffered this should have been there. simple.
then her "mother" did not even bother answering her calls or showing up for the goddamn interview with the rest of them. you blame kamiyah for being angry and not her mom? come on nowm.
I wouldn't want my child/ren kidnapped but God forbid they were I honest to god wish they had a good upbringing from the kidnappers and not an awful one.
Of course this girl is going to love the only mother she has ever known. It's only natural. She was an infant who knew nothing and bonded with an imposter. Sad.
Bonded with a terrible person. Evil spirit very evil!!! Selfish that what that bitch was selfish she only thought about her goddam self. She didn't even give a dam about Kamiyah because she let that girl think for 18 yrs she was her mother. 18 fucking yrs and had the nerve to tell that man that she was once pregnant from that was his child. So now you have him involved his family hell not to mention her own family. Now you have Kamiyah family kamiyah dad family. I mean she was just selfish as fuck she thought about no one. How the fuck she sleep at night for 18 dam yrs knowing you stole somebody child and the mother biological mother is dam suffering. Jesus fix this now!!!
Kyla love I agree very disrespectful. However, it was simply to early for Iyanla to try and get her to deal with emotions she couldn't even grasps. After Kamiyah went off, only then did Iyanla realize she had gone to far. Kamiyah just wasn't ready to deal with all those emotions. But then who would have been?
Yes I watch the episode and she really was. Those feelings were already inside of her and she kept telling Miss Vanzant that she doesn't feel anything or don't have any feelings toward the situation and what has happened when in actuality she really does.. she has been burying what she really feels.. she has to be confused angry upset frustrated because she's in a place where someone who she deeply loves and thought was her mom did a very bad act. that's a very hard place to be in so you can't say you don't feel anything when she kept telling Miss Vanzant I don't think about it I don't talk about it she's suppressing the truth of how she has to deal with it so that she can move forward....for her to flip out like that and curse and be that disrespectful that did not "just happen" that is not her first time speaking that way in such a angry and disrespectful way as she told her father she has knocked down bigger people then miss VanZant...people need to pay attention to words as well as actions this girl is angry because of what has happened what she has learned and it's okay if she wants to still care and love the mother that abducted her that's completely understandable that's all she knows but she also has to show some love and compassion for the biological mother who didn't even get to know her daughter.just hours after she was born she was gone..her biological mother and father have to accept what she feels and what she saying regarding the mom who abducted her until something happens to where she will realize it was an evil act and she changes her position but she has to be the one to decide to change it no one else can't force her to.. and if she decides to never change her view unfortunately her parents biological will have to be okay with that and learn to be able to live with it if they want a relationship with their daughter... if she was mistreated after she was abducted, I think it would have been a different outcome but because she was raised well because she was taken care of because she was loved that is the challenging part of her seeing the whole picture of it being a very bad and selfish thing that woman did...
Anisha Humphrey agree to a certain extent the problem is her bio mother wants her to love her the same way she loves Gloria and cut her off thats not something thats going to happen over night lie or not the lady raised her for 18 years she’s not going to have the same love for her bio mom going in
When I gave birth to my son, they kept trying to take him from me, for one reason or another. Smh I refused, because if my son went missing. I would have killed everything with any liability.
I get the impression that she doesn’t care as much for the way her birth parents live in comparison to the life she had lived. I see that, but the mother that raised her committed a crime. That should not be minimized. A very sad and complicated situation.
"She made one mistake but I was loved”, that statement was powerful. I hope this young woman heals in time. She has more love than most children get in a lifetime. Good luck ❤
The daughter comes across as a money-hungry spoiled brat. The only reason why she's doing her real parents like that is because they don't have any money. She needs a reality check. I hope the kidnapping mother get some serious times
You can not be kidnap and thinks it ok it's not normal I was kidnap at 3 years old and thank God brought back to my parents at age 3 I'm still mad and confused and I'm 49 .she is going to need counseling she's still in denial or confused about what the manner of what the mother did is wrong and ilegal and she's a pretictor.thats what help me counseling .but I didn't think I needed it until I had my first child in my 20s.i felt like someone was going to harm or kidnap my child so I got help .now I have grandkids and I thank God I don't share them same feeling.
You're lucky you were returned almost immediately. This was the only mother she knew for 18 YEARS! She thought this was her real mother. Of course she is still bonded to her!
That one mistake is the basis of their relationship. I absolutely hate this girl who is thinking all about the kidnapped and not of her mother whose baby by snatched from her arms by this monster. There is no forgiveness for putting a mother through all this. The kidnapped should be given death penalty so that justice should be served.
Yall say she too young yall don't understand she raised her since birth stole,took whatever it's wrong. I understand but what if yall mom told yall after 18 years said your not mine you telling me you not still gonna go hard for her
I watched that episode, She was Horrible, Her parents could not control her, but she SHE WALKED OFF THE SET... #Smh "I would love to know how they are ALL doing now"
marlene Williams to her those aren’t her parents they’re just new people in her life trying to erase 18 years of it honestly her mother approached the situation wrong had she did she and her would have the same relationship like her and her father has who understands this is new to her and they have to build a bond because she does not know them
That’s what she get come at me I don’t care imagine someone stealing ur kids even if they treat them good or bad I don’t care I want them in jail for a life time
Pretended with that raspy voice to be innocent and raised right when she was not, was probably overly spoiled so she would never run away and would overly love the fake mother just as she does today...She showed her true colors tho.
NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO STEAL A PERSONS CHILD. FAMILIES SUFFER SO MUCH PAIN WHEN A CHILD IS TAKEN FROM THEIR PARENTS. RELATIONSHIPS LIKE THIS IS BUILT ON LIES. IF SOMEONE WILL LIE TO YOU ALL OF THESE YEARS. WHST ELSE WILL THEY DO????
I couldn't imagine giving birth to a baby, my baby I carried for 9 months, being taken away from me 8 hours into my baby's life. I'd just die! My son was in the NICU so I couldn't keep him by my side but my daughter stayed in my hospital room the whole time we were there.
This is an unexplainable MESS. Poor confused girl, poor dad who thought he had a daughter and now this, poor lady whose firstborn child was stolen away from, poor me watching this and trying to put myself in each one of these victims shoes and wondering how it would've felt, poor you reading my comment. Poor everything else that will keep you reminding you of this huge MESS
Unfortunately, Gloria is the only Mother she's ever known for the first 18years of her life ...I truly understand the child's stance for her, I definitely understand the biological mothers stance, her baby was ripped from her arms at birth...... but I will never understand what Gloria was thinking or going through that would make her think that what she did was the right thing to do, they say desperate people take desperate measures, but it also says Hurt People hurt people. Lord, all we can really do at this point in time is pray. Prayers for all involved!
I hate how Kyamala says she made one mistake but i was loved. Like a mistake???ohk do we call stealing a human being a mistake?seriously??that was devil and very unacceptable
Lmao isn't it funny that eighteen year olds are considered 'teenagers' when it is convenient (especially in this case) but then afterwards they are legally adults? lol
This was right before we moved there . My son was born at the same hospital, my OB’s office was there . I remember seeing the flyers all over the hospital and crying over what that mom must be going through. We got the new security alarm bracelets for our baby and our spouse and were briefed on letting the nurse take your baby to the nursery or not. To hear this young lady talk about how her life ended up being better with the woman who stole her ?! That makes me so mad . To hear her defend her makes me so mad . You were stolen little girl ! Your parents grieved the loss of you ! Man, I realize this is complicated for her but Jesus , it must kill her parents all over again to hear her talk like this
No matter how terrible this situation is it was also good that kid was cared for. Statistically majority of kidnapped children are abused and murdered.
The emotional pain of seeing your child call another stranger mom is a different type of hurt. They should’ve never had the opportunity to care for this child in the first place . NO RIGHT. Even if the child gets kidnapped and murdered, the kid will leave the world still remembering who their real family and mom and dad was. If they were brought back to life, they would be home with their REAL family. This kidnapped child will never really see her bio mother as her real mother because she was selfishly stolen.
I can (hardly say) this is a positive story but I'm glad Alexis/Kimani now knows the truth. I am also glad that she doesn't hate Ms. Gordon. HATE is a terrible thing.
i feel so sorry for the man who thought he was her father
Debbie xx Alexis spoke out about that already and said he was never really there for her throughout her childhood
Debbie xx I feel for all but especially her parents. They will never get the bone with her she's grown now. All that time they've been going crazy and stressing probably fighting each other should have had a lawsuit against the hospital.
I feel bad for him she thought that he was her father, and didn’t like that he was never there for her, in reality he had no reason to be “there for her” because she wasn’t related to him at all.
Debbie xx I also have tons of empathy for him. It’s just sad.
Debbie xx fr thats so sad he lover her
My heart goes out to the biological parents who have missed out on raising their daughter. The pain and suffering with sleepless nights they must have endured.
Her biological father was in prison when she was born because he was an adult and Alexis mother was a minor. He's a gold teethed druggy looking guy in interviews. The family that raised Alexis is a far better family than Alexis biological family. Not that that made the kidnapping right, of course.
Dorene Mellene. Exacts
pardon, exactly I meant
Dorene Mellene I will literally kill that bitch who kidnapped my
kid I don't care if my kid wanted her more then me imagining all those years in pain what a horrible person
drServitis the woman who kidnapped her was also a career criminal, she had a long rap sheet, also, her pertner, who is the father was also in prison.. you have no right to judge people without knowing all facts. its their child, they were not even given a chance to raise her, how do you know if they werent going to be better?
I’m glad she was loved but the lady should’ve adopted not stolen a child!
Miriam Norman. Thats what Iam saying adopted!
Exlacty
Queen Mia she wasn’t up for adoption
Queen Mia she was trying to keep that man of hers
Siiister, adoption is a lot of money
When Alexis gives birth to her first child, she will understand that her kidnapper is EVIL.
Me Wendy she stole someone else’s motherhood before they were even given a chance. There are people who make it out of the ghetto and make a better life for them and their kids. There is no excuses for that lady’s actions.
Nothing But The Truth fr
Nothing But The Truth you said it all!
Yes she will. I hope she will be ok. My heart just breaks for her and when that time comes I hope she will allow her natural mother to be there with her and for her it will be hard for the both of them but I believe it will be necessary for them to heal as a family.
You are right, but the woman seemed to have done a great job raising her loving her..it's still unforgiving what she did. I don't think she will ever hate her even when she will have her own.
The girl is too young to understand the damage that women did
Green Eyes Chavis first of all she is/was 18 years old then, and she can clearly understand it. Second, if you found out ur parents were not ur reals ones and u were stolen what would u think?
Green Eyes Chavis qqq

Y'all aren't looking at it in the right fucking way shes 18 !!!! THIS WOMAN AND MAN R THE PARENTS SHE KNOWN HER WHOLE LIFE. THEY MADE A FAMILY SHE WAS LOVED AD THEIR OWN. the stole her she knows that and she knows it bad but is she bout to be like omg I hate you so much for stealing me I I never wanna talk to you ever again. NO CUZ THAT HER MOTHER NOT HER BIOLOGICAL MOTHER BUT HER MOTHERRRRRRR
Green Eyes Chavis right, she was kidnapped
How was she able to enroll into school all those years without legal documentation?
Forged documents.
Brittany Daniel first of all I would like to say you are a beautiful black woman are you married? First of all imagine this you gave birth to a baby girl somebody comes around when you're asleep hours later and still your baby. You don't know what happened the hospital tells you that someone stole your baby this is the most traumatize experience that you would have in your life I know some people would commit suicide. This woman stole your most precious thing in your life and deprive you of the chance of raising it for 18 years. Could even be longer if she did confessed to the crime. This woman have committed a hideous act that cannot be for forgot or forgiven my first analysis of death penalty is over reaching but life imprisonment would be better suited for this person. Because death penalty would be too easy for her to get out from the wrong that she did she need life imprisonment so she can think about it for the rest of her life that to me is a better torture for this woman.
Brittany Daniel she could if use a fake one or her one
Brittany Daniel The same way illegal immigrants do it I guess.
Brittany Daniel Sweetie, schools do not check authenticity of documents. That happens when you apply for jobs, that is why the mom told her the truth. All information would come back as invalid.
The story is extremely sad for both parties. I'm just glad the girl was raised beautifully.
A Beautiful Mess Me too!
watch iyalah fix my life 💀
Jerdiee omg she’s so crazy and ratchet !! Not raised right at all😂
A Beautiful Mess No she wasnt.
The Boro is a hot mess of a place. And yea shawty ratchet as fuck
She looks just like her biological mama.
Pharah Merancier DUHH
+/SN00PY GFM/ it is not a "DUHH", some children look nothing like their parents.
Pharah Merancier like u
They are probably related.
/SN00PY GFM/ actually i don't see any resemblance so you are right, but I've been told i take after my dad.
It doesn't not matter weather the mother looked like a junkie was ghetto or whatever else fact still remain THAT WAS HER BABY that she gave birth to and loved and she wanted her child back
The dad looked and still looks like a junkie crack head and the mom was and still is loud and ghetto. I hate to say this but her life would have been worse with her biological family.
Marlee D how can you say that based off appearance ? anybody can look some type of way .. it doesn’t matter , you can’t take somebody’s child without giving them a chance to care for her .. 🤨 if they were both at the hospital & not leaving her there or acting like they didn’t want her then they were most likely good damn parents .. you can’t judge a book by its cover
@@marleed6532 u sound so foolish and wayyy damn amd Wondering whay am even commenting
Funny that you mentioned that cause that young lady has a nasty attitude watch her on inayah fix my life
She didn’t look like a junkie lol
Every single time I hear this young lady say "I still love my Mom. I am not mad at her and the love I have for her will never change regardless". Oh!! my heart literally breaks for her biological parents. Especially her Mom who was 16 years old when she lost her new born baby. She probably never ever really got over losing her child. Then to get her back and hear her long lost baby say such honorable things about her abductor. 💔😥
Like a knife
J.L. F. Thats exactly how i feel!
J.L. F. Exactly. I don’t think she’ll understand the pain her birth mom is going through until she has her first born.
J.L. F. But that woman rise her and that well always remain and she loves her as well it well be hard for both parties sad !
It's almost like she has a chip on her shoulder as in, yall would have raised me in the hood, they gave me everything I needed, how can I turn my back on he attitude. It's a sickening sad.
The girl will not evening bring herself to say the woman was wrong. Like did she even acknowledge it ever?
I'm sorry but that baby looks like it has some pencil drawn eyebrows
perth love club fffrrrrr
@@skshamim3861 Duhhh!!!
.
I think it was a drawing.
Preluu
this an extremely complex case and I hope it is delt with sensitivity towards the victim
Rachael Rojo nothing complex about this case at all this is a criminal that's stole a baby at birth from her biological mother this is a criminal who stole the love that she should've gotten from a biological mother this is a crime there should be no sympathy at all for this woman. No sympathy I don't feel sorry for this woman one bit
There is nothing complex in regards to the kidnapper, it is complex when it comes to Alexis aka Kamiyah. Of course in legal terms that doesn't matter, the kidnapper will be punished, but Alexis is definitely going to be messed up for life.
Rachael Rojo AMEN
It is a complex case. Yes the kidnapper should be punished but IDK about LIFE imprisonment, ppl should consider her miscarriage and recognize her mental health issues that needs to be dealt with.. also consider her relationship with the child, yes the child needs to develop a relationship with her biological parents but don't take away the mother she grew to love and leave her with strangers (Ik they're more than this technically).. tbh Idk how they would really sort out the problem
Eon PaHRaye this should have never been a relationship from the beginning if this kidnapper didn't take her for birth this woman deserve the death penalty in my book. I don't care about her miscarriage or anything that doesn't matter to me just she commit a crime. Don't Give me a sob story because I don't give a shit you need to go to jail for life. That girl missed out 18 years of life growing up with her biological parents I don't give a fuck if they was poor just because you live better don't make it right to be fucking stealing someone's baby you piece of shit
I cannot imagine someone stealing my baby after birth, and my baby loving the kidnapper to death, and I cannot say anything negative about it.
I feel bad for her real mother who now has to listen to her daughter (who was stolen from her) talk about how much she loves this woman and her feelings won't ever change and that is still her mother and she had the best life ever. Like it I was her real mother that would really fuck me up. Another time she was like "i mean ill give them a chance" in reference to her real family. That would really suck to hear as her bio mom.
Its sad that some people judge others based on their appearance..being ignorant. They might be hood or ghetto as u say.But some of the greatest achievers came from the hood.Jesus Christ grew up in the hood and had no flaws.He gave his life for us all..even the foolish..Walk a mile in their shoes ..bet you will change that tune
Her bio is causing more pain for herself. People can't stop loving someone because they find out it was all a lie. Her bio need to stop voicing her hurt publicly with such bitterness for Kamiyah. At the end of the day Kamiyah wasn't part of the plane to be kidnapped!!! Her bio wants her to stop loving her kidnapper. That will probable never happen.
You gotta wonder if this was an inside. Did she randomly pick this baby or did someone within the hospital staff tell her about this TEEN MOM.
I bet she targeted this women so she would feel less guilt... like taking a baby away from a stable home would have crushed her... but taking her out of the ghettos, away from a teen mom and incarcerated father, made her feel better about her decision.
I think the biological father set this up because he was facing jail time because the mother was only 16.
Hospital baby wards were not as secure as they are now. This shit was common.
rodniqua barnett Nobody cares in the hood and he was not facing jail time for that.
Brand Factory Media yea so you are saying nobody cares in the hood about older men being with young girls??? Check yourself because that's false we have good and ratchets in ever race. I'm guessing with your comment you are part of the nobody's who do t care... ratchet low class
"She made 1 mistake & I was loved " . im crying real tears this is sad. ! I would loose my mind. When she has her baby. I hope she realized what she went through.
That lady needs to do Life in jail. The premeditated act does not go away because she was "nice". The parents went through hell wondering about their child. I have no sympathy for that woman.
marc j I'm with ya! That girl is NOT okay! She's a selfish, confused bimbo who was raised in a lie all those years!
Exactly! I don't know how people can take her side in this
Exactly!!!!! The premeditated act does not go away. I mean, that’s like saying, “I robbed a bank, but I took my kids to Disneyland.” Ummm...you STILL robbed a bank. Or, “I stole your car, but I drove a group of nuns to the beach.” Seriously? The absolutely wonderful, positively fantastic way (being sarcastic, of course) she raised that STOLEN baby does not erase the fact that she STOLE a baby!!!! OMG!!!!!
Sorry (not sorry) can’t let this go. She stole that baby. She ‘raised’ her, sure, and ‘gave’ things to her. But what about all that she ‘took’ from her. A completely different upbringing with different possibilities and missed opportunities. A whole lot of stolen what ifs, and maybes. So many lost chance encounters, crossed paths never to be realized with different turns of events. If the good Lord had meant this path for her, that evil being would have given birth to her. But He didn’t and therefore she didn’t. Hope this makes sense...
Death penalty
I can understand how the girl feels still loving the women that kidnapped her but I feel like she's not thinking of how it effected her biological parents
PLW, You are right and more behind it.
PLW not her problem
PLW I understand she still loves Gloria because that’s the person that raised her, but I don’t think she she’ll understand the pain her birth mom has until she has her first born.
Tv Lover149 her having a child still won't change the feelings that she has had all her life.
GamingGuy Of Games no it won’t but most and likely when she has her first born she might understand an ounce of the pain her birth mom went through.
Evil I don't care how you put it. Something is wrong with ANYBODY who would steal A CHILD and selfishness. To keep a man....
What that got to do with,keeping a man???
Brandi Hill she said she thought her boyfriend at the time would be happier because he was abusive
The only victim is the biological parents. 18 years of not knowing if your child is dead or alive is hard. I'm sure the girl was advised to keep quiet until she turned 18 so she couldn't be forced to live with her bio parents. The abducter is a sick woman and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
To be honest.. she shouldn't be.
What would you rather do, live a life of poverty, crime, prostituin with a teen mom and a felon of a father... or a women who could afford to give you a good life?
she also could have easily endangered the girl's health, taking her from the hospital only a few hours after being born
The girl is a victim also.
Galaxy Cat yes she should. That lady needs to spend a very long time in prison. It’s good she raised her however she stole someone else’s parenthood before they were even given a chance. I honestly feel more sympathy for the birth mom I can’t imagine what she’s been going through these past 18 years or even now.
Amen Tracy. What she did was wrong and now the girl is a psychological mess! She wasn't loved. That woman is selfish, ignorant and needs to be locked up to feel the real mother's pain. She can't control the girl anymore, so now she's sorry. Give it a break woman!
Just like on Tangled
my thoughts exactly
Except that this girl was abducted by the better family...
TrainSounds lol you read my mind
lol yup
I think that movie was a inspiration of what happened in the real world.
I'm reading the comments and it amazes me how no one is acknowledging that a BABY was stolen from a HOSPITAL(where security bracelets are placed on them), video cameras are all over the place. How is it that she was able to walk out with the baby and no one noticed?
Marcia Mullen, Yes which mean inside job! I think I would have been crazy. Someone told that a teenager was having a baby bcz apparently the kidnapper could have any kids.
Marcia Mullen back then I can see it happening but now it's basically impossible
7
Cut the bracelet off and act normal. Literally keep your head down so cameras dont catch your face. Hospitals are busy, nobody would blink twice at a woman carrying a baby out.
This was 18 years ago all these measures weren’t in place like they are now. Tech wasn’t like it is now
she's not a very nice girl the way she treats her real mother
Opinions are like assholes,we all have them, she has the right to feel how ever she wants, it doesn't make her nice mean. She is you who she is who she is, everyone is different that's what makes us unique. Judge not. Empathize!
NewStyle Modeling IKR!!!! The REAL mom is the victim. Pray for her!!!!
Her real mother isn’t no better
NewStyle Modeling We are in no place to judge her. Her feelings are valid. She didn't know that this lady had kidnapped her until she was in her late teens! Both her and her biological mother (along with her bio dad and the dad who raised her) are victims in this situation.
I can't even imagine the suffering the real Mom went through . Carrying a child 9 months , hoping -praying it will be healthy . Finally the day come's .. you go through the pain of labor . Then after all that .. you go home empty handed . No idea what happed to your little girl :(
only 133 cases..GTFOH...thats 133 too d@mn many!
ElleDan87 Same thing i said
Exactly!! 1 is too much!! The loss of a child is the most unbearable pain!! And why would you wanna inflict this on someone else? Maybe a better option would have been to seek a surrogate mother to carry your fertilized eggs and give birth to your own biological child!! Seems if she could afford to give this child a better life , she could have afforded this option as well!! This child is confused and living in a state of delusion!! She refuses to see this woman for who she really is!! Her whole life has been one big lie( no fault of hers though)!! One thing I despise most in life is a diabolical liar!! They are very skillful manipulators!! No sympathy for this criminal mastermind kidnapper!! Can’t say what kind of experience the biological mother may or may not have subjected this child to!! I have seen great experiences as well as horrible ones from both sides of the track!! Been living in an affluent suburban area for two decades now and let me tell you”these kids are a hot mess”!! This is just one entire ball of confusion for the child and her biological parents ( they are the real victims as a whole)!! Prayers to them!!
I just want to know how the hell that baby had drawn on eyebrows and everyone thought it was ok
Finally sumone notice this too!
It looked photoshopped af
Obviously you haven’t been following. The baby was only a few hours they had no picture. They had to composite a sketch.
The fact this girl is still calling the lady who stole her as baby mom is crazy
Her kidnapper told her in her teenage years she’s known for years she confided in a friend and her friend told. She was never gonna tell
No, it's not. She grew up loving that woman. That is the mother she knew all her life. She's not going to stop loving her/thinking of that woman as her mother. Her biological mother is a stranger. If I found out that my mother isn't my biological mother and stole me, I'm not going to stop thinking of her as my mother and consider the stranger my mother. Doesn't matter how many years I get to know my biological mother. Those early/formative years where I would have considered her my mother if I grew up with her are gone.
@@TheVeriaStarr I agree with you. What people do not get is that Kamiyah is showing real love towards someone who loved her in spite of Gloria's sin. The reason why her bio mom, and her cannot get along is because her bio mother wants her to deny the truth, and Kamyiah refuse to deny her love for Gloria as her mother. Her biological father didn't care about any of that to the extent that he was going to allow what was done affect his relationship with his daughter and he respects her and feels her pain and not just his own. He showed that on" Iylana fix my life". Kamiyah bio mother did not prepare her heart for the reunion of her daughter who did not know her, and this is why she is having such a hard time accepting that her daughter is a stranger to he,r and she is a stranger to her daughter. It is unfair but that's their reality. I pray the mother can get past her pain and do not let what she prayed for all these years to be in vain. For her to let go of the years she lost live for today, and take a friendship with her daughter until her daughter is ready to accept her as her mother. Get the counseling that she needs to move forward towards forgiving and healing.
I can't wait for the girl to have children of her own
i dont see how that woman could have lived knowing she stole that baby 18 years ago
Kaylee Golden sick woman!
Let's see..... how does someone have an affair with someone else's husband? Or how is it people can cause someone else to loose their job on a lie? It's all wrong. Children and others suffer as a result of uncaring heartless selfish people. However noone goes to jail because cheating and causing someone not to be able to feed their family is not a crime. The real victim is Kamiyah who lost her idenity for 18 years. People need to let her sort threw this the best way she can. I understand her bio is hurting and was also victimized. However, she must not forget that Kamiyah has the greatest of difficulties to sort through.
@@aprilallen4759 lady you sound foolish comparing this to infidelity .... and you must not understand the mothers the pain the way you sat up here and said however !! No the point is none of this would not had happen had Gloria took her silly ass on else where!! She had no RIGHT to do what she did.
If i was her biological mom, I would not try to force her to have a relationship with me or make her feel guilty about it but I would continue to keep in touch and let her know that I love her. Thats really all the biological mom can do because her child built a 18 year bond with another woman she though was her mom.
I don't know how you can live with yourself if you steal a child from someone, raise her as your own child, living a "out-right" LIE. How can you look at yourself in the mirror, sleep at night, looking at this child that's not yours, realizing the pain you've inflicted on another person, don't you have a conscience? She should NEVER get out of jail. That's beyond "evil"!!
This girl is very smart and assured....you can tell by the way she speaks and her vocabulary....she was raised very well....her behaviour in the interview...well spoken and assured.....
Brendan Pilgrim still don't justify kidnapping
That is irrelevant
but i heard she was disgusting n full of attitude on iyanla just lately tho! goin to check it out now
Perfekshun514 if you went through this you’d be full of rage too . She’s still a kid not knowing how to process all of this with all the cameras in her face her biological mother saying she’d show up on the show and didn’t played a huge part in her blow up . I don’t think she was ready period
Brendan Pilgrim agreed. She was very well taken care of
I feel so sorry for the man who thought he was the father. He had no clue. He really loves her 😢
Wasn't there a movie about this years ago?!?
Breeze 2 years ago named carleena white. her story was similar almost the same.
Breeze but it was a diifferent girl
Kerrshon Sawyer ooohhh yeah I remember now. thanks
Breeze what's the name of the movie?
the deep end of the ocean?
Wow talk about turning the knife, it wasn't enough to steal her baby and keep her till legal age, also stole her heart and love that was for her real mother that she now will never have. Zero sympathy give her one year for every year ripped from her REAL mother and spit on the key!! Pathetic and evil my heart out to real mama so,sorry.
Mic Walker a child is not an ticket for unconditional love. You only get that love if you do a good job as parents.
So true. So sad 😢
The kidnapper is a terrible person. I feel bad for the biological parents and the daughter. She doesn't know any better than who she was raised by but I feel so bad for the biological parents who have to see their daughter defend a kidnapper. I dont feel bad for the woman who I hope gets a lengthy prison sentence. She knows what she did and gets everything she deserves.
The daughter loves a liar who raised a child who wasn't hers and she thinks of her as her mother. I understand why she feels like that but the woman isn't a nice person and she took a baby and has basically lied to that girl for 18 years probably ruining her chance of having the relationship with her real parents that she could of had.
It makes me mad because they know her BIRTH NAME is KAMIAH and they keep calling her Alexis
She has no remorse for her biological mother. She gonna think about it when she have her own.
i think there is a movie about this story.
Beauty by Diana No there isn't you have it mixed with the corlina white story.
Pharah Merancier But both stories are exact to the T
Keeping up with Kim No because Coralina discovered by searching on Google she was a missing child and this story she was founded. Corlina was open to meeting her birth parents while Alexis is more sadden by the lost of her mother that took her from her real parents. She is more reluctant about forming a relationship with them.
Beauty by Diana this isn't da first time it's happened sadly...
Beauty by Diana More like a TV show on mtv called "Finding Carter"😮😕
This young girl is precious! The world would want her to stone her kidnapper but she's mature enough to make her own decision
Jesenia Jackson exactly
Wrong - she was raised by a criminal. Anything she believes is based on lies and deceit. Of course she loves the woman she believes is her mother. Poor child has had her whole life turned inside out. It will take many many years to figure out what is reality and what is lies. I pray she works thru this as soon as possible
It’s nice she feels that way but if I were a mother God forbid this happened idk I’d be forever bitter. Going through 9 months of pregnancy the happiest moment of your life painful childbirth and within hours your baby is gone going home without a baby ( missing ) empty nursery years celebrating her birthday winding if she’s ok smh that bitch stole that woman’s joy she needs to rot
I think you're just as sick honestly 😑🙄
Stockholm Syndrome
I understand what this girl is going through. You can't switch off love
I love how the girl understands that even though the woman who kidnapped her was wrong, she gave her a much better life then she would have had, and loves her for it.
who said anything about giving her a much better life?
Yeah lying to her entire life is such a better life. Oh and being raised by a sick criminal.
UnscrupulousAgitator I guess it's OK to kidnap a baby at the hospital as long as you can afford to take care of it. If you got a good paying job and money in the bank then why not every person that has this can just go walk into a hospital and say I feel like getting my myself a baby. I don't know what planet are you from but if you think this is OK you're crazy just like the kidnapper is.
UnscrupulousAgitator and how the fu k do you know that ? 👀
Lee stevens her bio mother was a 16 year old living in the ghettos and her bio dad was in prison...
I saw this girl on iyanla.. this must be so difficult... But that girl , the one who got kidnapped is So so so Disrespectful.
She was definitely NOT raised right, I believe she was spoiled as well. The kidnapper needs to get MAX for what she did.
Jenni G
I don't agree. Iyanla caused that outburst. She was messing with feelings and isolating Kamiyah. She pushed her over the edge. Not justifing her actions, because she was very disrespectful. However Iyanla brought that on herself. People need to let Kamiyah process everything while she heals! That's going to take years.
I agree. To be honest, I wouldn't want her back, that would hurt me too much to be treated like that 18 years later
she wasn't disrespectful. i really dont see how anyone who saw that episode can even think that. the girl has a right to be angry and how she expressed it wasn't soooooooo wrong or disrespectful. she was rightfully angry and wasnt rude for no reason at all. she's young and honestly , I respect iyanla , but she shouldn't have been the one to talk to that girl. yeah she's been through a lot, but there is no way she could understand thay.
the girl she talked to at the end of the episode who also suffered this should have been there. simple.
then her "mother" did not even bother answering her calls or showing up for the goddamn interview with the rest of them.
you blame kamiyah for being angry and not her mom? come on nowm.
I wouldn't want my child/ren kidnapped but God forbid they were I honest to god wish they had a good upbringing from the kidnappers and not an awful one.
This reminds me of the Bible story of the two women fighting over the baby
Facts
Of course this girl is going to love the only mother she has ever known. It's only natural. She was an infant who knew nothing and bonded with an imposter. Sad.
But thank God she was safe .want could have happened if the abductee abused her and felt no empathy or killed her to rid her off.she is a baby
Bonded with a terrible person. Evil spirit very evil!!! Selfish that what that bitch was selfish she only thought about her goddam self. She didn't even give a dam about Kamiyah because she let that girl think for 18 yrs she was her mother. 18 fucking yrs and had the nerve to tell that man that she was once pregnant from that was his child. So now you have him involved his family hell not to mention her own family. Now you have Kamiyah family kamiyah dad family. I mean she was just selfish as fuck she thought about no one. How the fuck she sleep at night for 18 dam yrs knowing you stole somebody child and the mother biological mother is dam suffering. Jesus fix this now!!!
She was so disrespectful to iyanna
Kyla love
I agree very disrespectful. However, it was simply to early for Iyanla to try and get her to deal with emotions she couldn't even grasps. After Kamiyah went off, only then did Iyanla realize she had gone to far. Kamiyah just wasn't ready to deal with all those emotions. But then who would have been?
If you we're paying attention Iyanna went at that girl sideways I would have snapped on her ass to
When you put the Powder Keg next to fire they're bound to be an explosion and that situation it was pretty much the same thing
Yes I watch the episode and she really was. Those feelings were already inside of her and she kept telling Miss Vanzant that she doesn't feel anything or don't have any feelings toward the situation and what has happened when in actuality she really does.. she has been burying what she really feels.. she has to be confused angry upset frustrated because she's in a place where someone who she deeply loves and thought was her mom did a very bad act. that's a very hard place to be in so you can't say you don't feel anything when she kept telling Miss Vanzant I don't think about it I don't talk about it she's suppressing the truth of how she has to deal with it so that she can move forward....for her to flip out like that and curse and be that disrespectful that did not "just happen" that is not her first time speaking that way in such a angry and disrespectful way as she told her father she has knocked down bigger people then miss VanZant...people need to pay attention to words as well as actions this girl is angry because of what has happened what she has learned and it's okay if she wants to still care and love the mother that abducted her that's completely understandable that's all she knows but she also has to show some love and compassion for the biological mother who didn't even get to know her daughter.just hours after she was born she was gone..her biological mother and father have to accept what she feels and what she saying regarding the mom who abducted her until something happens to where she will realize it was an evil act and she changes her position but she has to be the one to decide to change it no one else can't force her to.. and if she decides to never change her view unfortunately her parents biological will have to be okay with that and learn to be able to live with it if they want a relationship with their daughter... if she was mistreated after she was abducted, I think it would have been a different outcome but because she was raised well because she was taken care of because she was loved that is the challenging part of her seeing the whole picture of it being a very bad and selfish thing that woman did...
Anisha Humphrey agree to a certain extent the problem is her bio mother wants her to love her the same way she loves Gloria and cut her off thats not something thats going to happen over night lie or not the lady raised her for 18 years she’s not going to have the same love for her bio mom going in
When I gave birth to my son, they kept trying to take him from me, for one reason or another. Smh
I refused, because if my son went missing. I would have killed everything with any liability.
Khad Scott sane here and I have four!🤗I was snapping and everything!
sad she dont understand how what they did was wrong
Keep your baby in your room in hospital. We live in evil world.
I get the impression that she doesn’t care as much for the way her birth parents live in comparison to the life she had lived. I see that, but the mother that raised her committed a crime. That should not be minimized. A very sad and complicated situation.
Wow :( this is giving me so many mixed emotions
This is exactly like the Carlina White story
Which they already said that in this video to make references.
Tru
Show is!
William Shinn yes
she is a super intelligent and loving young woman.
Saira Jackson no she's rude watch the Iylana Vanzant interview and you'll see how she acts. She wasn't sweet and innocent on her show
These kidnappers should be in jail
That’s not one mistake. That’s 19 years of mistakes
Whos hear after watching stolen by my mother by lifetime.
Me
The kidnapper look like Ms. D from the dancing dolls💀
Lies!!!
Just a bad bad situation. She knows the kidnapper as her momma and there’s no changing that. I feel so sick for her bio mom 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
"She made one mistake but I was loved”, that statement was powerful. I hope this young woman heals in time. She has more love than most children get in a lifetime. Good luck ❤
That baby picture is a No go🤦🏽♀️
Gurl I hollard! Bless her lil baby pictures..
The daughter comes across as a money-hungry spoiled brat. The only reason why she's doing her real parents like that is because they don't have any money. She needs a reality check. I hope the kidnapping mother get some serious times
Because she wants a real relationship with her real parents? Fomf
The lady committed an evil crime stealing someone's child to manipulate that man. She hurt so many people!! Selfish woman
You can not be kidnap and thinks it ok it's not normal I was kidnap at 3 years old and thank God brought back to my parents at age 3 I'm still mad and confused and I'm 49 .she is going to need counseling she's still in denial or confused about what the manner of what the mother did is wrong and ilegal and she's a pretictor.thats what help me counseling .but I didn't think I needed it until I had my first child in my 20s.i felt like someone was going to harm or kidnap my child so I got help .now I have grandkids and I thank God I don't share them same feeling.
You're lucky you were returned almost immediately. This was the only mother she knew for 18 YEARS! She thought this was her real mother. Of course she is still bonded to her!
I feel so fukkin bad for the biological parents & the “father” who was tricked. Ah. As a mommy this is heartbreaking.
She sounds like Marge from simpsons
That one mistake is the basis of their relationship. I absolutely hate this girl who is thinking all about the kidnapped and not of her mother whose baby by snatched from her arms by this monster. There is no forgiveness for putting a mother through all this. The kidnapped should be given death penalty so that justice should be served.
How did she get registered for school? Don't you need a birth certificate for school?
This so much remind me of the Carline White story
Anybody else?
That’s not ONE mistake that’s a whole 19 years of missing the stakes 🧬🧬🧬🧬
Yall say she too young yall don't understand she raised her since birth stole,took whatever it's wrong. I understand but what if yall mom told yall after 18 years said your not mine you telling me you not still gonna go hard for her
*SHE IS WISE, WELL SPOKEN, INTELLIGENT AND LOVING AND I HOPE THE BEST FOR HER!* ❣️
Baby eyebrows on fleek though 🤣🤣🤣
L done😂🤣
I think it will hit her hard after she gives birth to her own kids one day what her bio mom went through!
Yes exactly
This kindnapper only got 18 years in prison. She needs life w/o parole.
" Not one mistake " kimiyah!! Gloria lied and hid daily !!
watch her on iyanla fix my life your opinion about her will change
I watched that episode, She was Horrible, Her parents could not control her, but she SHE WALKED OFF THE SET... #Smh "I would love to know how they are ALL doing now"
marlene Williams to her those aren’t her parents they’re just new people in her life trying to erase 18 years of it honestly her mother approached the situation wrong had she did she and her would have the same relationship like her and her father has who understands this is new to her and they have to build a bond because she does not know them
Truuu
That’s what she get come at me I don’t care imagine someone stealing ur kids even if they treat them good or bad I don’t care I want them in jail for a life time
Pretended with that raspy voice to be innocent and raised right when she was not, was probably overly spoiled so she would never run away and would overly love the fake mother just as she does today...She showed her true colors tho.
NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO STEAL A PERSONS CHILD. FAMILIES SUFFER SO MUCH PAIN WHEN A CHILD IS TAKEN FROM THEIR PARENTS.
RELATIONSHIPS LIKE THIS IS BUILT ON LIES. IF SOMEONE WILL LIE TO YOU ALL OF THESE YEARS. WHST ELSE WILL THEY DO????
Sometimes something’s are better left untold ....
wasnt she on iyanla😂 cussin everybody out
Ree Ree yea 😂
Ree Ree naw cursing iyanla out
That lady ruined the whole family's life.
I couldn't imagine giving birth to a baby, my baby I carried for 9 months, being taken away from me 8 hours into my baby's life. I'd just die! My son was in the NICU so I couldn't keep him by my side but my daughter stayed in my hospital room the whole time we were there.
My friend's baby girl was stolen from Harlem Hospital , The Carlena White story
Alexis was born with really good brows. WOW
This is an unexplainable MESS. Poor confused girl, poor dad who thought he had a daughter and now this, poor lady whose firstborn child was stolen away from, poor me watching this and trying to put myself in each one of these victims shoes and wondering how it would've felt, poor you reading my comment. Poor everything else that will keep you reminding you of this huge MESS
I think .... the other mother should be able to decide the punishment in time served
She will never stop loving her kidnap mother...that all the mother she knows...building a relationship with the other will be just like aunt...
Unfortunately, Gloria is the only Mother she's ever known for the first 18years of her life ...I truly understand the child's stance for her, I definitely understand the biological mothers stance, her baby was ripped from her arms at birth...... but I will never understand what Gloria was thinking or going through that would make her think that what she did was the right thing to do, they say desperate people take desperate measures, but it also says Hurt People hurt people. Lord, all we can really do at this point in time is pray.
Prayers for all involved!
How the hell did she get out of the hospital with a baby and no one noticed???
I hate how Kyamala says she made one mistake but i was loved.
Like a mistake???ohk do we call stealing a human being a mistake?seriously??that was devil and very unacceptable
I can’t imagine the pain her Real mother felt 😱 after jus having her 😢
Lmao isn't it funny that eighteen year olds are considered 'teenagers' when it is convenient (especially in this case) but then afterwards they are legally adults? lol
Nana A. Lartey ESPECIALLY BLACK ONES
This was right before we moved there . My son was born at the same hospital, my OB’s office was there . I remember seeing the flyers all over the hospital and crying over what that mom must be going through. We got the new security alarm bracelets for our baby and our spouse and were briefed on letting the nurse take your baby to the nursery or not. To hear this young lady talk about how her life ended up being better with the woman who stole her ?! That makes me so mad . To hear her defend her makes me so mad . You were stolen little girl ! Your parents grieved the loss of you ! Man, I realize this is complicated for her but Jesus , it must kill her parents all over again to hear her talk like this
This is sick to think a crime can be made to be okay
She will love her all the way up to the point to when she has her own child and then things may flip-flop a little bit!
So a women steals me from my mom...I'm done with that women no matter what....I would try my hardest to be with my mom....
No matter how terrible this situation is it was also good that kid was cared for. Statistically majority of kidnapped children are abused and murdered.
The emotional pain of seeing your child call another stranger mom is a different type of hurt. They should’ve never had the opportunity to care for this child in the first place . NO RIGHT. Even if the child gets kidnapped and murdered, the kid will leave the world still remembering who their real family and mom and dad was. If they were brought back to life, they would be home with their REAL family. This kidnapped child will never really see her bio mother as her real mother because she was selfishly stolen.
She doesn’t understand .
I can (hardly say) this is a positive story but I'm glad Alexis/Kimani now knows the truth.
I am also glad that she doesn't hate Ms. Gordon.
HATE is a terrible thing.
