Bella shared that there was no fussing and everyone had their designated duty. She remembered growing up in lots of laughter as her dad often threw his jokes around, being a delight around his children.

However, Eddie and Nicole had a rule which they enforced, making it possible that none of their children join the entertainment scene before the age of 18, the reason being that the couple wanted their kids to have normal childhoods.
