An unusual story, drew millions of viewers on the special episode of Iylana Fix My Life, to hear Jay Williams story.

Given the buzz Williams received, the television network OWN has decided to give Williams his spin-off reality show with VanZant continuing to try to work with him.
The official OWN description:
“Untitled Jay Williams Project” (Working Title – Premieres September 2015)
On the heels of the highly-rated and controversial “Iyanla: Fix My Life” multi-part “mega fix” featuring Atlanta resident Jay Williams who says he fathered 34 children with 17 different women, OWN follows Jay as he works to put his life and relationships in order. With spiritual life coach Iyanla Vanzant holding him accountable every step of the way, OWN’s cameras follow Jay as he works to heal and establish new connections with his family, his children and the mothers of his children. He says that he wants to change and to be the best father he can be, but his extreme situation will challenge his best intentions and whether or not he can live up to all the responsibility. The series is co-produced by OWN and Evolution Media.
Update
OWN pulled the series.
“OWN has decided not to move forward with the Jay Williams docuseries,” the network said in a statement. “The series aimed to follow Jay as he worked to put his life and fractured relationships in order and to hold him accountable every step of the way. The intention was to help Jay work to establish new connections with his family, his children and the mothers of his children. Production has ended and the series will not air.”
The network did not elaborate on the decision to drop the series.
