La La and Carmelo Anthony have been going through a rough patch in their marriage these days. In fact, the two have been living separately for the past couple of months to give their relationship a breather. Earlier reports claimed their marriage has been rocky for the past year before the former MTV VJ has decided to move out of their family home in April.
Their separation has sparked rumors on whether or not the Anthonys are headed for a divorce. However, all of these speculations were put to rest when La La finally revealed the status of her marriage with Carmelo.
No divorce...yet
During her guest appearance on "The Wendy Williams Show" on Tuesday, the TV personality admitted she and the NBA superstar are going through a hard time in their marriage, but she clarified that divorce is off the table for now. La La acknowledged the fact that married couples go through difficulties and knew that they are not exempted from that.
She went on and said that the two of them are best of friends who want nothing but the best for their 10-year-son, Kiyan. The "Starz" actress added that their primary objective is to make sure that they are setting a good example for him as he grows up.
Aside from that, La La candidly admitted that she is not ruling out the possibility of getting back with Carmelo in the future considering that she has known him since he was 19 years old.
The mother-of-one also said that she just can't throw away everything that they have shared over those years despite what they are going through right now.
The TV personality even commended the NBA player for being a great dad to their son. When asked if she is seeing someone new right now, La La stated that she is trying to better herself by working out, living a healthy lifestyle, and leaving her bad habits behind.
Carmelo's sweet message to La La
Her interview with "The Wendy Williams Show" came after she celebrated her 38th birthday on Sunday. In fact, the 33-year-old NBA player did not miss the chance to send La La his well-wishes on her special day. Carmelo took to social media to repost a photo of her and expressed his love for the mother of his son.
"I look at you on this birthday, and it is hard to believe another year has passed. You are as beautiful now as ever before!!! Sending Birthday wishes to MY EARTH," he wrote and tagged the birthday celebrant.
La La, on the other hand, celebrated her birthday by attending the 2017 BET Awards with Kiyan escorting her for the event. The TV personality looked dashing in a see-through dress, while her son channeled an all-white look.
