Following a tumultuous season, Dr. Simone and Cecil Whitmore announced they were going to give things another try at Married to Medicine's Season 5 reunion special. "We agreed we would get in counseling and stay in counseling to see if we could work it out," Dr. Simone told People at the time.

"For me, I'm not going back to the way it was," she continued. "Neither one of us were happy. So we can't go back to the old dysfunctional relationship that we had. I won't do it. We're trying to establish something new — something better — that's fulfilling for both of us where we are both feeling love and enjoying one another's company." Adding that she would like to see counseling lead to a reconciliation, she emphasized that both she and Cecil need to put in the effort to change. "I'm hoping we come out better friends, better confidants and more sexually active partners," she shared.

Luckily, it looks like counseling worked because the couple moved back in together in 2019 after living apart for eight months, she said on Watch What Happens Live. Since then, they have been getting back on track as if they did not skip a beat. In May 2020, when they celebrated their 24th wedding anniversary, they seemed happier than ever. "Some decisions are better than others and I really got this one right!!" Cecil wrote on Instagram for the occasion. It seems like there's never a final straw when two people are meant to be.
