Coco Austin exclusively spoke with US Weekly and shared her reasons for breastfeeding her 5-year-old daughter Chanel.
“Chanel still likes my boobs,” she said. “It’s a big bonding moment for a mother and your child.”
Austin, who shares Chanel with her husband, Ice T, said Chanel eats steak and hamburgers but “likes a little snack every now and then.”
“Why take that away from her? … If she doesn’t want it, all right, that’s where you stop it. But I’m not just going to say no,” she added.
March of last year, Coco posted on Instagram that she nursed “for comfort.”
“Believe me; the girl loves meat, so it’s not like she isn’t eating real food. Thank you to all that understand my view. I see most of you are so eager to side with me, and I too, root for you in your journey as well. Us moms are connected.”
She also said that Chanel decides where she sleeps and lets her sleep in their bed some nights. She also said that her Ice T doesn’t mind if Chanel stays up late because they aren’t typical parents. But says this will change once school starts.
“We call it the family bed,” Austin told Us. “We have Chanel and all four dogs.”
“We’re more of night entertainment. People have to understand; we have different times. Sometimes, I work until two in the morning. When [Ice-T’s] on tour, he’s doing a show at 12 at night. … So we transfer it a different way. Chanel gets up at 11 in the afternoon.”
Coco and her rapper husband, 63, “can’t be really spontaneous anymore” in their sex life. “We used to,” she said. “We have certain days where we have a free bed for our alone time.”
