Kimora Lee Simmons Shares Her True Reason for Returning to Reality TV
Kimora Lee Simmons is making a notable return to reality television. Her new show, titled Kimora: Back in the Fab Lane, will premiere on E! on December 2. This marks her first appearance in the reality TV arena in over ten years.
Motivation for Returning to Reality TV
In an exclusive interview with E! News, Kimora shared her unexpected journey back to the spotlight. She described how the idea of returning to reality TV was initially met with skepticism by those around her. “I feel like people around me are like, ‘Oh god, you’re so crazy,’” she remarked.
Despite her prior experiences, those close to her insisted, “You should have cameras.” Kimora explained that this conversation shifted from mere suggestion to a more serious proposition. “That ‘I’m really serious’ talk becomes a ‘here we go, we just need you to have a little meeting,’” she said.
Life as a Mother of Five
Kimora balances her professional endeavors alongside her responsibilities as a mother. She has five children from different relationships:
- Ming Lee Simmons, 25 years old
- Aoki Lee Simmons, 23 years old
- Kenzo Lee Hounsou, 16 years old
- Wolfe Lee Leissner, 10 years old
- Gary Lee, 15 years old, whom she adopted in 2020
Kimora’s return to reality television is not just about capturing her life; it reflects her multifaceted identity as a designer and a dedicated mother.
