Naturi Naughton recently got candid and opened up about the impact of her mind and body transformation on her children.
For those unaware, the 41-year-old American singer-songwriter and actress is the mother of two kids. Her daughter named Zuri was born in 2017, whom she shared with her previous partner, Ben. She welcomed her son Tru with her husband, Xavier "Two" Lewis, in 2023.
In a talk with PEOPLE magazine to promote her recently released project, Eric Jerome Dickey’s Friends and Lovers, Naughton reflected on the mental and physical transformation she went through over the past few months and how it brought positive results, especially for her children.
The Notorious star, who transformed herself under the supervision of her personal trainer, Jerry Joseph, said, "That was a moment when I realized, like, 'Oh, it's not only working just for me, but maybe it's working mentally for the family members around me.’”
She noted, "They were starting to want to get active and get involved and do things with me."
Naughton went on to share that she is taking her children on her transformation process and it feels "incredible" to add them to this whole journey.
She explained, "My son is only two, and he's like, 'I'm going to work out with mommy.' He'll try to pick up a weight, [and] it's so cute.”
"I [am] ... just letting them be a part of the process. And then my daughter was like, 'Mommy, your tummy is not as big as it was.' And I was like, 'Oh, well, thank you, 'cause you were inside of there at one point.’”
"It feels incredible to be able to include my kids. They would cheer me on literally from the steps of my house,” Naturi Naughton remarked.
