“There are times where she’ll see my cry maybe if I’m sad or because I lost someone and she’s trying to understand what that means.
“And in this occasion, because I’m laughing and crying she’s confused and making fun of me.”
SINGLE DAD LIFE
In the interview with the Today hosts, Lamorne revealed he was a single father to three-year-old Lily.
“She kinda has me wrapped around her finger,” the Woke actor shared.
“I try to be like ‘No, this is not how this is going down.’ but it always goes down the way she wants it to go down.”
He touched on an instance when Lily told her famous dad that she loved him.
Lamorne said the moment was “unprompted” and came out of nowhere.
“I said ‘Oh my God’ and I picked her up and then she whispers in my ear ‘Can I have some donuts now?”
