'Couples Therapy' Season 6 Recap and Spoilers: Will Big Ang's Realizations Be Enough for a Change?
This week on "Couples Therapy with Dr. Jenn," fans saw a teary-eyed Big Ang coming to terms with herself and realizing that there are things she has to let go if she wants her marriage with Neil work.
Dr. Jenn's plan for the episode is to obviously find out "who wears the pants," and while some already know that Big Ang is the pant-wearing woman in her home, it came as a surprise when Ang shed real tears during the episode.
Fans who have been following the show know very well that Ang has been verbally abusing Neil, making him feel worthless and pushing him further into the brink of laziness. Entertainment Weekly notes that Neil has been drinking, and while it is unclear if he has just found a hobby, some suggest that he might be drinking to ease his pains away. Aside from the alcoholism, he was also diagnosed earlier in the season with depression.

The therapist had one sweet piece of advice for Big Ang so Neil will stop being rebellious and develop self-esteem. She told the celebrity that being nice to her spouse will make Neil be motivated to do more things instead of drink and feel that he has nothing to offer.
In a preview clip released for the season, Big Ang was seen interrupting Neil as he tried to explain how the rocky moments in their relationship began. Dr. Jenn advised Ang to learn to listen as listening is a huge stepping stone to fixing broken relationships.
While the couple pulled off Dr. Jenn's cooking challenge successfully, with the two completing the day's tasks with smiles on their faces and gifts to celebrate their anniversary, it might not take long before another trial puts their rebuilding relationship to test.
The reason behind is obvious. Ang claimed before the season started that Neil is totally unable to satisfy her extravagant lifestyle and while Neil claimed he had been trying but Ang's verbal and emotional abuse has taken a toll on him, Ang is too stubborn to commit towards giving Neil a chance.
Fans will just have to watch the upcoming episodes to see if Ang was sincere when she appeared to have realized her mistakes in "Power Exchange."
"Couples Therapy with Dr. Jenn" airs Wednesdays on VH1.
