“I’m so jealous of (my character Lisa Todd Wexler) … Inside an episode, I might have had, like, two scenes, but even my underwear was yummy. My slippers that you didn’t even see. Giant bracelets, but then I’d have an Issey Miyake coat on, so you didn’t see them, but I knew they were there. Adam, oh, my god, who lives like this?”

“[But] the tag would still be on there and I’d be like, ‘Ugh, it’s never gonna happen. I’ve got two kids and one is going to college. This is tuition, I’m wearing tuition.’”

– Nicole Ari Parker reveals to Extra‘s Adam Glassman that even though she’s envious of the haute couture and luxury fashion her And Just Like That character wears, she and husband Boris Kodjoe aren’t really about that life. In actuality, she says they are focused on saving their money in order to afford tuition for their daughter Sophie Tei Naaki Lee Kodjoe, 18, who recently graduated high school and is attending Howard University in the fall. Their son Nicolas Neruda Kodjoe is 16 years old. Catch the talented Parker in season 2 of And Just Like That on Max.
