Lozada starred in Basketball Wives, an American reality television series franchise on VH1 for five seasons,[7] before joining the cast of Basketball Wives LA for four seasons. After quitting the show in 2021, she returned to the franchise again in 2023, for the second time, as she joined the eleventh season. Another reality television show, Ev and Ocho, which had been planned to follow the lives of her and former husband Chad Johnson, never aired.[8] Lozada was the center of a third reality television series, Livin' Lozada, with her daughter, Shaniece, which ran for two seasons in 2015-2016.[9][10] In September 2012, Lozada appeared on the television show Iyanla: Fix My Life where she discussed her personal life and sought emotional healing with Iyanla Vanzant.[11]

Books

Lozada and her brand strategist, Courtney Parker, wrote the 2012 novel The Wives Association: Inner Circle.

Personal life

Lozada has a daughter, Shaniece Virginia Sabina Hairston (b. 1993), from a previous relationship with Jamal Hairston. Lozada was engaged to NBA player Antoine Walker, with whom she had a ten-year relationship, from 1998 until 2008.[17] Lozada began dating MLB player Carl Crawford in 2013. In December 2013, Lozada and Crawford announced their engagement.
