Season 4
Basketball Wives:LA
Episode 05 RECAP
Ashley Miller recaps on episode 05 of 'Basketball Wives: LA'. Jackie continues to start drama when the girls arrive in Santa Barbra.
This is not working in Scrappy’s favor since he and Erica are in the midst of a child custody battle. Erica’s already asking the court to award her sole custody of Emani and when Scrappy sees her to be required to have a court-approved monitor. She’s not stopping there; Dixon also wants Scrappy to get tested for drugs and alcohol and go to rehab.
Being the father he is, Scrappy said in his own custody filing that Emani lived with him for the last two years and was scared of Dixon. According to him, Erica has dissed him in front of their daughter and often won’t allow him to speak to her when she has her. He also claims she refused to co-parent with him.
“She’s being pushed, pushed, pushed and it’s all drama, drama, drama,” the source says. “Her and her son are concerned about her well-being because they feel the show has a lot to do with it.”
“When you are being pushed into situations and having situations created which could create riff-raff with her child, there is nothing they could do or say,” the source says. “And it’s deeper than just Mob Wives.”
'According to multiple sources, Smith’s production shingle, Overbrook Entertainment, is in the very early stages of developing a present-day family comedy that puts a new spin on the fish-out-of-water tale while maintaining the spirit of Fresh Prince. (An official longline is still being hammered out.)I’m told a pitch is being finalized now and Overbrook will begin shopping it around in the coming weeks. Smith would serve as an EP alongside his Overbrook producing partners James Lassiter, Caleeb Pinkett and Jada Pinkett-Smith.'
