Coco Austin defends breastfeeding her 5-year-old daughter

Coco Austin has no qualms about still breastfeeding her 5-year-old daughter.

The model shared that she won’t stop nursing Chanel until her daughter decides she doesn’t want to anymore.

“Chanel still likes my boobs,” Austin told Us Weekly Saturday. “It’s a big bonding moment for a mother and your child.”

The former “Ice Loves Coco” star, 42, acknowledged that her and husband Ice-T’s little girl also eats “steak and hamburgers” but “likes a little snack every now and then.”

“Why take that away from her? … If she doesn’t want it, all right, that’s where you stop it,” she said. “But I’m not just going to say no.”

Ice-T defended Austin’s breastfeeding last year when their daughter was nearly 4 years old, saying it was a way for Chanel “to get close to her mom.”

The reality TV alum also revealed that she and the “Law & Order: SVU” star, 63, allow Chanel to dictate where she sleeps, which often means spending the night in her parents’ bed.

“We call it the family bed,” Austin told the magazine. “We have Chanel and all four dogs.”

Given the crowded space, Austin admitted it takes a toll on her and the rapper’s sex life, saying they “can’t be really spontaneous anymore.”

“We used to,” she said. “We have certain days where we have a free bed for our alone time.”

Ice-T and Austin wed in 2005.
