If there’s one thing Basketball Wives fans know about Evelyn Lozada, it’s that her love life has never been a quiet, private sidebar. But on the most recent episode of Drop the Lo Podcast, Lozada doesn’t lean into messy nostalgia—she puts the past on the table, jokes included.

Crawford doesn’t mince words, telling Lozada, “She was on to the next baller. She was with her rapper boo.”

And then Shaniece Hairston jumps in like the daughter who has heard everything—and is fully entertained by it now—adding, “There was a line of men out the door and around the door, and around the corner.”
The moment hits because it’s classic Lozada energy—confident, unbothered, and very aware of the public mythology that’s followed her since Basketball Wives turned relationship drama into appointment TV. It’s also a rare peek at how the exes can sit in the same conversation without turning it into a battlefield. Lozada and Crawford were engaged from December 2013 to August 2017 and share a son, Carl Leo Crawford, born in March 2014. The breakup came amid infidelity, but they later kept things friendly to focus on co-parenting.
That context matters, because the podcast clip doesn’t play like a scorched-earth recap. It plays like two people who have moved on enough to laugh about the headlines—while still keeping the co-parenting mission front and center.

Just as importantly, the exchange shows the vibe between Lozada and Hairston: familiar, unfiltered, and comfortable. Hairston doesn’t sound like a side character in her mother’s story—she sounds like a co-host who knows how to steer the moment, land the joke, and keep the conversation moving. Whether the topic is love, exes, or life after a breakup, the dynamic feels like two women who can be mother and daughter and partners in the room.
