Coco Austin's daughter has adorably revealed to her mom that she loved her from the very moment she was born.

The 44-year-old model and her 65-year-old husband Ice-T got married in 2002 and welcomed their seven-year-old daughter, Chanel in 2015.

During an exclusive preview of Friday's episode of the Tamron Hall Show, the mother and daughter duo appeared on the show with Eva Amurri, Erica Dickerson, Jamilah Mapp, and Dena Blizzard to celebrate Mother's Day.

The episode dedicated to the special holiday - which is on Sunday (May 14) - will give the moms the opportunity to share their insights into motherhood.

The snippet shared by the talk show revealed the 52-year-old host asking Chanel if she wants to say something to her mom. The little girl then turned to Austin and heartwarmingly said: "The first time I was born, I loved you."

Austin - whose real name is Nicole Natalie Marrow - then corrects her daughter by asking, "The first moment?" to which Chanel responds: "Yeah, the first moment! The first moment I was born."

"You remember that moment? You do?" the TV personality continues to ask as she gives her baby girl a hug. "Yeah, kind of, yeah," Chanel says.

She then questioned: "You remember laying on my chest? And looking up at me?" to which her child answers: "Yeah. Yeah." The mom then quips: "I'm glad that [the birth] was quick. Thank you so much [for that]."

With some help from the host, the little girl handed out different flowers to each of the mothers on the panel.

Austin and her husband have made headlines for their close relationship with their young daughter. This week, the rapper - whose real name is Tracy Lauren Marrow - revealed that Chanel still sleeps in the same bed as her parents.

"I was there when Coco was pregnant, I went to the hospital and Chanel still sleeps in the bed with," he said on the That Moment with Daymond John podcast. "So I’m so much more connected to her than my other kids. But it’s been a beautiful thing."

The New Jack Hustler also opened up about his eldest children, Letesha, 47, and Tracy Jr, 31 - whom he had with previous partners. He explained that he’s more present in his youngest child's life than he was with his oldest.

"I think the difference with Chanel and my other kids is I’m very conscious of this baby," he said. "I had my daughter when I was in high school, I was ripping and running. So it was presents over presence. I wasn’t there."

Ice-T's parenting comments come months after his wife was criticized after she posted an Instagram video of her giving Chanel a bath in a kitchen sink.

At the time, Austin took to Twitter to address the backlash, penning: "Wow just Wow! Here we go again! Giving my lil girl a bath in the sink went Viral? SMH! People,you gotta know by now that I’m an unconventional mother. I do what works and is easier on me. Some may want to take some pointers rather than rag on me!"
