Everyone’s favourite TikTok drama is about to hit the silver screen. Back in February 2024, the world became obsessed with TikTok creator @reesamteesa, whose real name is Tareasa Johnson, and her iconic 50-part series titled ‘Who TF Did I Marry?’, which focused on the manipulative lies of her ex-husband, Legion. The entire online community stood firmly behind Johnson and was completely taken aback by the wild stories she shared about her former partner’s deception. And, as it turns out, there was a certain writer, actor, and producer also watching this crazy tale unfold.

On Wednesday 4 September, Johnson announced on her Instagram page that ‘Who TF Did I Marry?’ had officially been picked up for a TV adaptation. It was also revealed that Natasha Rothwell, an actor and writer best known for her work on The White Lotus and the upcoming comedy series How to Die Alone, would be starring and producing the show.

Also announcing the news on her TikTok page with enthusiasm, Johnson stated: “Finally, the news is out. I didn’t disappear, I was in negotiations! I am beyond excited to work with the Natasha Rothwell. Listen, we are about to change the game. Get ready, get set, go!!!”

One excited user commented under the post: “The fact that it hasn’t even been a year since we heard this story just shows how incredible you are. You’re doing big things girl!”

Fans had been speculating about a potential TV adaptation for some time now and after the creator recently shared a video on TikTok captioned “when you’re busy booking flights and signing contracts,” netizens suspected that an exciting project might be in progress.

So much more to come y’all!! More major announcements brewing!”
