"Pat is not a bad guy, he's just not for me,"
"I didn't want to divorce my husband but it became necessary do it in order for me to be my best self."
"One of the things that I'll always cherish about 'Down Home with the Neelys' was that I had an opportunity to get on television every day and invite people into our home,"
"And I was able to share that with my high school sweetheart, a woman I truly loved, and to be me. I never had to act."
Down Home With the Neelys ran on the Food Network for 11 seasons from 2008 to 2014 and featured Pat and Gina Neely sharing recipes from their Memphis home. The show ended when the couple's long marriage dissolved after more than 20 years together. Gina decided to leave the relationship because she felt unhappy and needed to move on to be her best self. Pat recalls the show as a cherished opportunity to invite viewers into their home and to be authentic. Pat met Tamika Parks in 2015 and married her in 2017.
