Ice T is ensuring that his wife, Coco Austin, knows not only how much she is loved, but that he thinks that she is, “The Greatest Mom Ever”.
On Mother’s Day , the actor and rapper took to Instagram to share a photo of his wife and their eight-year-old daughter, Chanel.
The 66-year-old captioned his post, “I know something that only Chanel and I know…. That you are the GREATEST Mom ever! Happy Mother’s Day Coco! We both LOVE you to death.”
The Law & Order SVU actor and Coco Austin, whose real name is Nicole Natalie Austin, tied the knot in 2002.
In a previous exclusive interview with People Magazine, Ice T told the outlet that one of Austin’s greatest qualities is being a mother to their daughter.
“Coco is super mom,” Ice T told the outlet. “We have no nannies. She doesn’t do that.”
“If you’re fortunate enough to be able to stay home with your kids, it’s the most incredible and most admirable thing you can do, is raise a child. So don’t let no woman make you feel any kind of way. Do that job. So she picks Chanel up, goes to school, brings her back, takes her to Kung Fu, takes her to all that stuff.”
The “New Jack Hustler” rapper emphasized, “Coco’s super mom. She didn’t ever think she was going to be a super mom — it just happened.”
In terms of their actual parenting styles, the couple do things a little differently than most. Ice T explains further in his interview that they do parenting in their own special way.
“We do our parenting,” he said. “I think the thing of it is, it’s Ice-T and Coco. Our parenting is a lot different than the normal, square couple from Oklahoma. I’m a f—ing rock star, it’s different.”
In addition to eight-year-old Chanel, Ice T is also father to son Tracy Marrow Jr., 32, and daughter LeTesha Marrow, 47, both from previous relationships.
