Evelyn Lozada: Reality Star Gets New Show on Oprah Winfrey Network
Evelyn Lozada is returning to the reality TV game by starring in a new show with her Major League baseball star husband on the Oprah Winfrey network.
TMZ Sports reports the former "Basketball Wives" star and Carl Crawford are slated to star on the show "Evelyn," which she will also executive produce. Sources also told the website the show will focus on the couple's union and the raising of their year-old son. Lozada's 21-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, Shaniece, is also set to make regular appearances on the show.
Lozada starred on "Basketball Wives" for several seasons, eventually earning her own spinoff, where she and former NFL star husband Chad Johnson lives were filmed. The two divorced after just several weeks amid reports of violence in their marriage, with Johnson ultimately being charged with domestic abuse-related charges.
When Lozada and Crawford announced their engagement in December of 2014, she began sporting a 14.5-carat diamond ring. TMZ reports she took a shot at Johnson and the smaller 10 carats he gave her.
Besides Lozada's show, OWN is rumored to have also greenlit a spinoff of relationship guru Iyanla Vanzant's "Iyanla: Fix My Life" show. Lozada previously appeared on a show hosted by Vanzant where she openly discussed her personal life and sought emotional guidance.
TMZ adds the network has not indicated if any of Crawford's famous L.A. Dodgers teammates, such as Yasiel Puig, Clayton Kershaw or Jimmy Rollins, will appear on the show.
While on "Basketball Lives," Lozada became infamous for arguing with and even physically attacking other cast mates. Lozada was also previously engaged to former NBA star Antoine Walker.
