Sheryl Lee Ralph stepped into her matchmaking role at the 2023 NAACP Image Awards like any mother would.
The actor joined her “Abbott Elementary” co-star Janelle James onstage to present the award for Outstanding Actor in a Drama series at the live show on Saturday night.
Ralph took the opportunity to put in a good word for her daughter, Ivy Coco Maurice, who she said was “still single.” The Emmy winner is also mother to son, Etienne Maurice.
“My daughter is still single for those rich, young, Black men out there,” she said.
Clearly Ralph and her daughter have each other’s backs.
Ivy Coco Maurice, an entrepreneur, has been styling her mother’s red carpet looks.
“She’s always come to me for style advice.” she told HuffPost earlier this month.
“Abbott Elementary” won the award for Outstanding Comedy Series at the 54th NAACP Image Awards on Saturday.
