Emjay, who is one of Shay’s two brothers, began appearing on the show in its third season, as the show covered his romance with one of the series’ main stars, Amara La Negra. Emjay and Amara ended up having a messy split, and it impacted Shay and Amara’s relationship.

Shay, Emjay and their other brother, Joe, are set to appear on an upcoming, two-hour episode of the OWN reality series, Iyanla: Fix My Life. In a new promo released for the episode, it looks like the two will confront their mother about some long-running family issues.
Here’s the official description of the episode, provided by the network: Reality star Shay Johnson is no stranger to cameras and conflict, but when it comes to healing the divisions in her family – well, that is quite different. When asking for Iyanla’s help to mend her broken relationship with her mother and brothers, the work required may be more than Shay bargained for.
This episode kicks off the new season of Iyanla: Fix My Life on Oct. 31 at 9.p.m. Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, there is no word on when Love & Hip Hop: Miami will return to VH1.
