Keshia K Pulliam of 'The Cosby Show' Fame Shares New IG Stories of Daughter Ella
Keshia Knight Pulliam gave fans delight in her recent social media upload after her mini-me, Ella Grace played dress up for the camera.
Child star Keshia Knight Pulliam and her little daughter could pass for mother-daughter goals, and over the years, the celebrity mom has been unabashed with her affection.
These days, fun times got even funkier with the self-quarantine safety rule creating more time for the "Rudy Huxtable" star to bond even stronger with her bundle of joy.

"She decided to get dressed today...yes, she picked out her outfit."

LITTLE ELLA GRACE
Keisha K first became a mother back in January 2017 amid marital crisis. The "Cosby Show" alum remained strong for her daughter, and after giving birth, the "House of Payne" star sparsely shared images of her little one.
However, towards Ella's second birthday, the 40-year-old celeb started loosening up more and became generous with her daughter's photos on her Instagram timeline. A lot of fans might have found it weird, but the star mom kept to a parenting style that suited her.

CHILD CUSTODY ISSUES
When it comes to motherhood, the "Beauty Shop" actress experienced hitches at the start. And this began after her ex-husband Ed Hartwell demanded a paternity test.
It happened that the two filed for a divorce just when K Pulliam became pregnant. After the celebrity mom had her child, Hartwell charged her to court over child custody, child support payment, and several complaints about her conduct as a mom.
In 2019, which was the last known court hassle between the two, the judge presiding over their case ruled in favor of the "Madea Goes to Jail" actress.
ANOTHER LOVE STORY
So far, it seems Pulliam has put the past behind her and is looking on to the brighter side with a handsome man right by her side! Sometime around 2019, Keisha started dropping hints of a new love interest on her Instagram page.
One of her captivating posts that made her relationship official was during Tyler Perry's studio opening. Keisha shared a romantic image of her and her lover, Brad James, reveling a sweet moment.
Just like the ex-child star, Brad James is an actor who's been in the industry since 2008. He has been in movies like "Osiris," "Devious Maids," and Tyler Perry's "For Better or Worse," among others. Before joining showbiz, James was a U.S marine for four years.
