Erica Hubbard plays “Kita” on BET’s Let’s Stay Together. The actress recently gave birth to a baby girl. In an interview with BET, Hubbard discusses her pregnancy and career.
How did the pregnancy go?
“It went well. I didn’t talk about it much because usually when I’m in character, I have to stay in character and I live that character’s life. If I started talking about it, then I get wrapped up in that world and I feel like sometimes it brings me away from my character. All throughout filming, everyone was like, ‘How are you doing?’ and I was like, ‘Kita’s good.’ I just stayed in that whole realm of the Kita world.”
On motherhood.
“It’s a lot of work being a parent. It’s a lot of joy being a parent. I kind of kept it under the radar and just did that. When it was time to go to work, I dedicated myself to that. I didn’t want to mix the two. I kept it under the radar. Some actresses do.”
The show and what viewers can expect from Kita.
“[Viewers should keep an eye on] Kita’s love interest. She’s been searching for a love interest and it’s like, is she ever going to find one? She was supposed to find one on a reality show because she had exhausted all of her options in trying to find a love interest of her own. That’s what fans should expect, to see her paired up with someone.”
