LiAngelo and Baby Lilo Shine In Heartwarming Family Snap
LiAngelo Ball is all smiles in a new photo showing a sweet family moment with his infant daughter, Lilo Legacy Ball, and his dad, LaVar Ball. The candid snap captures the three of them beaming at the camera, with Lavar leaning close to the stroller holding his granddaughter while sitting comfortably in a brown chair. In the photo, LiAngelo rocks a casual look with an afro, a beige jacket over a bright green striped shirt, grey jeans, and light brown shoes with matching bright green laces.
Baby Lilo appears to be napping peacefully, her tiny face peeking out from under a light blanket. The setting looks to be inside the ‘Big Baller Podcast’ studio or office, as the logo can be seen in the background, hinting that this could have been a special visit during recording time. And, fans are already swooning over the heartwarming glimpse into the Ball family’s newest addition.
You Already Know Folks Got Somethin’ To Say
Fans immediately flooded The Shade Room’s Instagram comment section to react to the sweet family photo. Some couldn’t help but joke about LiAngelo’s new look, comparing him to Bob Ross, while others noted that Lavar clearly wasn’t having any online drama with him or Rashida Nicole. Meanwhile, many were simply touched, sharing how heartwarming it is to see a daughter in the presence of her father.

LiAngelo Reflects On Past Choices Amid Ongoing Family Drama
Almost a year after MissNikkiiBaby accused LiAngelo Ball of abandoning her and their two young children, Gelo recently reflected on his decisions in a new episode of ‘Ball in the Family.’ In February 2025, Nikki revealed that LiAngelo had left her via text while she was just a few months postpartum. She claimed the couple had allegedly gone from planning family photos to him confessing he was dating Rashida Nicole. While he allegedly told Nikki that Rashida was pregnant, Nicole later clarified that she didn’t get pregnant until later in 2025.
Fast forward to the podcast. Gelo admitted he regrets leaving Nikki over disagreements about living arrangements, school plans, and childcare, saying, “If I could re-do it, I would’ve whopped my own a** for real, like I would’ve stayed there.” He also claimed Nikki, whose real name is Nikki Mudarris, is “cool” with him and that he confessed these thoughts directly to her. Meanwhile, Rashida fired back on Instagram hours after the episode dropped, calling LiAngelo a “clown” and “deadbeat,” denying she forced him into anything—including being a father—leaving fans caught in the middle of the ongoing Ball family saga.
