“Life’s just going to take you where you’re supposed to go. It’s up to you to follow it. [Joining the show] felt good. It felt right. I’m like, people think I’m weird [already],” she told Entertainment Tonight in January 2023. “They say it behind my back, they talk behind my back, let me just tell them in their face: This is Mary and, yes, I am married to my grandmother’s ex-husband. How about that?”

Included in her inheritance was her grandmother’s church she pastored, which Mary now does.

“I’m so not in it for the money. Oh my goodness, I believe in what I do, I believe in what I’m saying, and I love my church and I love what they are,” she continued. “Money can’t fulfill that, not for me.”

In addition to her generational wealth, Mary and her husband have started successful businesses like owning a mass production of shopping bags and a billboard printing company.

“It’s not like I just have money coming out of the walls. These [designer] things that I have are collector pieces,” Mary told the outlet.
