The Surprising Reason Sunhe Didn't Want To Star On sMothered

Posted by Mittie Cheatwood on Saturday, May 18, 2024

When Angelica first told her mother that they should audition for "sMothered," she had no interest. "I didn't want any involvement," Sunhe admitted to us, and there's a specific reason why. "Believe it or not, I'm extremely private," she explained. "And I didn't want to do it because of that reason." Obviously, starring in a reality series requires cameras to circle you 24/7, so privacy is definitely not an option when it comes to sharing your life on-screen.

However, after thinking it over, Sunhe realized she would do anything to support her daughter and her dreams. Angelica eventually got her mother as eager about the opportunity as she was. "Her excitement was exhilarating," Sunhe said.

Funny enough, now that she's used to having the cameras around, they don't bother her at all. In fact, this self-proclaimed perfectionist has become more involved in production than she anticipated. "I'm always constantly asking, 'Hey, did we look okay on this?' or 'Can we angle the camera a certain way?'" she said, laughing. "I try to take over."

New episodes of TLC's "sMothered" air Monday nights at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
