This week, Tami stopped by The Breakfast Club to hold nothing back on her love life, unborn child, and the ladies of Basketball Wives LA. Check out a few excerpts:

Whether the pregnancy was planned or not:

Planned as best it could be. I never thought I would have children again but because he is 17 years younger, he’s never been married, and doesn’t have children, what I learned on Marriage Bootcamp was how to compromise in a relationship. So what I decided was to give him what he doesn’t have.

Whether she felt a way because he was so young:

I did. I was like he’s closer to my daughter’s age than mine. But the thing about it is he’s a very mature 28. We’re comparable to each other in terms of his wisdom and things that he’s experienced. He had to convince me. I had to see where his mind was and what he was talking about.
