Carmelo, 38, also shared the exciting news on his Instagram Story, writing, “Just the beginning.”

The former couple’s son also expressed his gratitude onTwitter, sharing that he’s “beyond blessed” to receive the offer.

Last year, thePowerstaropened up about being a working mom, as well as how living under the public eye has impacted the way she raises her teenage son Kiyan.

“He just got an Instagram probably like a month ago, and he asked me every day for the last like two or three years,” La La said on an appearance of theTamron Hall Show. “And I was so worried and so against it. I finally caved in about a month ago, and so far it’s been good. We’ve had no issues.”

La La added that Kiyan is “a great kid who’s super responsible, which makes my life a lot easier.” She admitted it is hard to balance being a working mom, but she’s always made sure that her son is her top priority.

“As long as I prioritize him first, which he’ll always be first over anything I’m doing, then kind of everything else falls into place after that,” she explained. “But Kiyan comes before any job or anything at all times, and everyone I work with or anyone who’s a part of what I’m doing knows that.”
