I watched a couple of the episodes. Although she is very fun-loving, Lala seems really grounded when it comes to her husband and son and doesn't let their celebrity status interfere on her role as wife and mother. I pray that their marriage withstands the test of time.

  I just wanted to add that in one episode, her son didn't want the cameras to be around at that time and LaLa turned to the camera crew and politely asked them to stop filming and to leave them alone for the rest of the evening. I highly respect her for that. Some celebrity parents would have ignored their child's needs and kept the cameras rolling for the sake of the almighty dollar.

I love LaLa and the show. She seems very humble and their relationship seems genuine. Best of luck to them.
