Oprah’s OWN Network Scraps Reality Show About Father of 34 Kids by 17 Women

Jay Williams fathered 34 children Iyania Fix My Life

NEW YORK (AP) — OWN network is pulling the plug on a prospective reality series about the father of 34 children by 17 women.

The network says in a statement Friday: “Production has ended and the series will not air.”

It went on to say that the original idea was to follow Atlanta music producer Jay Williams “as he worked to put his life and fractured relationships in order,” the network says, “and to hold him accountable every step of the way.”

Williams had appeared on the OWN reality show “Iyanla: Fix My Life” with life coach Iyanla VanZant before his own spinoff series was announced a few months ago. It was due to premiere in September.

OWN gave no explanation for its change in plans.
