Actress and TV personality Tami Roman dug out some free time to “hang” with her daughters, Lyric, 26, and Jazz Anderson, 24. On Monday, May 23, the former “Basketball Wives” star shared a photo of the trio all hugged up and posing for the camera.

In the caption, she wrote, “Got to hang with my mini’s today & it was the recharge I needed.”

As Roman’s photo circulated online, many noted how beautiful and youthful Roman and her daughters looked.

“Y’all are gorgeous.”

“Y’all don’t have To hurt us so bad with all this beauty. Sheesh.”

“Beauty just runs in the family.”

“Faces are SITTING. Naturally.”

“Oh My Goodness!! You all are so beautiful. They both look like you.”

“Wow, they’ve grown so much! Such beautiful young women.”

Fans went on and on calling the ladies “triplets” and noting how much Tami’s daughters have grown since making appearances on “Basketball Wives” as kids. One person said, “You all are so Beautiful, like mother like daughter. Love what you are doing Tami Roman keep working hard.”

However, some believe Roman and Lyric look more like twins. One individual said, “Lyric took your whole face Tammy. Beaut[y].”

“Love & Hip Hop'” reality star Yandy Smith-Harris chimed in, writing, “Wow y’all are stunning. Like seriously stunning.” Another social media user said, “They are so beautiful. They look like you in The Real World Days!”

Prior to joining “Basketball Wives” in 2010, Roman appeared in a number of televisions shows and films such as “The Parkers,” “One on One,” “Half & Half” and “Hair Show.” But her first claim to fame came as a cast member on MTV’s “The Real World: Los Angeles” in 1993. Despite an unpleasant experience, she reluctantly returned for “The Real World Homecoming: Los Angeles,” which aired in 2021. Over the last few years, she’s taken on roles in Bounce TV’s “Saints & Sinners” and the Carl Webber series “The Family Business.”

Another Instagram user asked the star about her role in another BET+ series, “Ms. Pat.” The individual wrote, “Yawl pretty…when’s ‘Ms. Pat’ coming back on?”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
