The bond Hatchett shares with Langston comes as no surprise as the judge has been a major part of her grandson's life following the demise of his mother a few hours after he was born.

After a C-section at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Langston's mother, Kira Johnson, died on April 12, 2016. Speaking to People, Hatchett admitted her daughter-in-law was in pain before she died.

A lawsuit was filed against the hospital and several doctors. Johnson's husband alleged that there was a wrongful death and negligent infliction of emotional distress.

Since Johnson's death, Hatchett and her son have been there for Langston all the way through. She remains good at parenting with a book to her name called "Say What You Mean and Mean What You Say" that offers strategies to help kids stay on the right path.
