Karla, 44, and Rykia, 26 of TLC’s “sMothered” previously caused controversy when a viral clip showed the Jacksonville, Alabama mother and daughter besties exchanging Brazilian waxes and even bonding over watching each other’s sex tapes.

These ladies share everything together and are always on the same page. Karla loves to meddle in all her kids’ lives and while Rykia seems to love it, her brother Rasheed feels the complete opposite. He is so turned off by their need to over-share inappropriate information that he has put off introducing his girlfriend of 9 months to his mom. As new developments happen in Karla’s life and her children, she tries to hold on to her bestie and keep everything the same.

Mee the ladies below.

Now in a sMothered clip shared exclusively with BOSSIP, we see a huge new development in Rykia’s life; she’s pregnant! Moreover, she’s annoyed with her mom’s antics and she can’t hide it while they go shopping. During their shopping trip gone bad, Karla reveals that looking for clothes together is usually something they enjoy. Now however everything’s changed.

“Before Rykia got pregnant we did everything together, margarita night was our big thing and we would shop at least two to three times a month,” says Karla.

As for Rykia however, she’s over it.

“I feel like my mom doesn’t get me right now and she’s trying to relive how we used to be.”

Watch the exclusive clip below.
