. THE
. THE BOND BETWEEN A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER IS UNBREAKABLE FOR
SOME IN TLC SHOW SMOTHERED
TAKES THE PHRASE LIKE MOTHER
LIKE DAUGHTER TO NEW LEVELS
SHOWCASING RELATIONSHIPS WHICH
AREN'T JUST EXTREME BUT
COMPLETELY INSEPARABLE.
AMY AND CARINA D'ANGELO ARE A
HAWAII BASED MOTHER DAUGHTER
PAIR.
WE'RE TAKING A SPOTLIGHT IN THE
NEWEST SEASON OF THE SHOW AND
THEY'RE JOINING US LIVE TO TELL
US ALL ABOUT THEIR SMOTHERED
RELATIONSHIP.
GOOD MORNING , AMY AND KARINA
MORNE.
MORNING .
ALOHA.
ALOHA.
ALOHA. ALOHA. FIRST OFF I WANT TO DISCLOSE I
KNOW AMY FROM HIGH SCHOOL SHE'S
ORIGINALLY A NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA GIRL AND I'M SURE
SHE WANTS TO SAY HELLO TO SOME
OF HER HOMETOWN AREA.
OH MY GOD.
I WANT TO SAY GOOD MORNING TO
ANTIOCH, CALIFORNIA.
I CAN'T WAIT TO COME HOME AND
SAY HI TO EVERYBODY SOMETIME
SOON MAYBE WE'LL DO A FUN WATCH
PARTY OR SOMETHING.
THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
YOU HAVE TO INVITE BUT WE WANT
TO KNOW ALL ABOUT SMOTHERED AND
HOW YOUR RELATIONSHIP FITS THAT
DEFINITION.
OH MAN IS THAT YOU?
OH MAN.
WELL WE LITERALLY DO EVERYTHING
TOGETHER.
WE SHARE CLOTHES, WE SHARE A
BED, WE SHARE A BUSINESS.
WE SHARE ANIMALS.
WE SHARE LAUGHTER ARGUMENTS
PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING
INSEPARABLE.
HOW DO YOU GUYS CONSIDER EACH
OTHER BEST FRIENDS?
WE DO.
OH FOR SURE.
ABSOLUTELY.
I THINK YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS SAY
THAT LIKE THERE'S A THERE'S A
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BEING A BEST
FRIEND TO A CHILD AS THEY'RE
GROWING UP BUT ONCE THEY BECOME
AN ADULT IT DEFINITELY SORT
OF TRANSFERS INTO THAT.
SO I WAS VERY MOTHERLY WHILE
YOU GREW UP AND YOU CAN SAY
KIND OF A LITTLE BUT NOW I GOT
A BUDDY SO YOU TALKED A LITTLE
BIT ABOUT WHAT YOU GUYS SHARE
BUT THERE IS SOMETHING I HEARD
ABOUT LIKE KANTI SWOPPING.
I MEAN HOW VULNERABLE ARE THE
TWO OF YOU?
OK, WELL WE HAVE SEPARATE
DRAWERS FOR OUR UNDERWEAR.
GOOD.
THEY ARE LABELED.
THEY ARE WE HAD TO DO A LABEL
SYSTEM BECAUSE WE SHARE ALL THE
CLOTHES AND THEY KEPT ON AND SO
YOU KNOW, THE PROBLEM IS WE
LIKE THE SAME THINGS SO IT'S
SOMETIMES HARD TO TELL THEM
THIS NEWS AND THEY GET KIND
OF MIXED UP AND WHEN WE'RE
GETTING DRESSED IN THE
MORNING I GUESS WE'LL SLIP THEM
ON IT AND SHE'LL BE LIKE THESE
ARE A LITTLE TOO YEAH I DON'T
KNOW.
AND I'M LIKE NO I THINK THOSE
ARE MINE.
I THINK GREAT ONES ARE YOURS
NOT LITTLE ONES ARE MINE AND
THEN IT STARTS AN ARGUMENT YOU
KNOW SO THERE'S A SWAP THAT
OCCURS SOMETIMES I GIVE YOU MY
STUFF I NEED THOSE THEY HOLD
EVERYTHING WHERE IT NEEDS TO
BE.
YOU DON'T NEED THESE ONES.
I NEED THEM GET THEM OFF.
BUT IT'S NOT LIKE SHE WAS
CRUISING AROUND IN A FOR EIGHT
HOURS.
RIGHT, RIGHT.
RIGHT.
OK, WELL THAT'S IT.
THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW.
AND YOU GUYS SAY YOU YOU
BELIEVE YOU'RE CONNECTED ON A
SPIRITUAL LEVEL.
HAS IT ALWAYS BEEN THAT WAY?
CAN YOU ELABORATE ON IT?
WHO'S GOING WE ALWAYS TALK OVER
EACH OTHER SO YEAH I MEAN I
FELT LIKE SUPER CONNECTED FROM
THE VERY BEGINNING AND I FEEL
LIKE YOU KNOW, THERE'S PEOPLE
THAT YOU MEET IN LIFE WHERE OH
LOOK AT ME IN LIFE AND YOU FEEL
LIKE YOU'VE KNOWN HIM FOREVER
AND THAT'S HOW I FELT ABOUT HER
SINCE THE FIRST TIME I SAW HER
AND SHE WAS A PREMATURE BABY
AND SHE ALWAYS NEEDED TO BE
WITH MAMA AND ON MAMA AND I
MEAN WE PRETTY MUCH SLEPT IN
THE SAME BED SINCE SHE WAS BORN
.
OH NOW IS THAT YOU TO SHARE I
MEAN IS THIS AFFECTING THE WAY
YOU CONNECT WITH OTHERS?
WHAT ABOUT WHEN IT COMES TO
ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS?
I THINK THAT OUR CONNECTION IS
A LOT FOR PEOPLE TO COME AND
UNDERSTAND.
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THAT
ROMANTIC LOVE?
I MEAN I THINK THERE'S A LOT
ABOUT OUT THAT YOU'RE GOING TO
GET TO SEE AND WATCH YOUR
JOURNEY ON THE SHOW.
YEAH, WE KIND OF TOUCH ON THAT
ON THE SHOW.
I THINK WE'RE BOTH SORT OF IN A
SPACE WHERE WE'RE LIKE, OK,
WE'VE YOU KNOW, HAD
RELATIONSHIPS AND I DON'T KNOW
THAT WE GOT IN THE WAY.
BUT THROUGHOUT THE SEASON
OF SMOTHERED YOU'RE GOING TO
REALLY SEE THE DYNAMIC AND HOW
EVERYTHING WORKS KIND OF WHERE
WE SAY I KNOW NOW I'M
INTRIGUED.
I'M LIKE YOU GUYS LIKE THE SAME
THINGS.
DOES THAT MEAN YOU LIKE THE
SAME GUYS?
I MEAN I DON'T KNOW BUT WE'VE
BEEN ASKED THAT WE DO AT THE
SAME TIME.
I MEAN WE WE SWITCH SAME GUYS
BUT WE ALWAYS KIND OF KNOW
YOU'RE PRETTY YOUNG THOUGH SO
LIKE YOU COULD TOTALLY DATE
SOMEBODY FORTY FIVE AND I'M A
LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT AGE
BRACKET AND ARE YOU STILL
TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF AND AM
I STILL INTERESTED SO I MIGHT
BE COMPLETELY AUBREY I MIGHT BE
COMPLETELY TABLE AT THIS POINT
BUT I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO
HAVE TO WATCH SOME OTHERS.
YEAH.
SO IF SOMEONE TURNS INTO
SMOTHERED WHAT ARE THEY GOING
TO SEE?
WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO FIND
WHEN THEY WATCH THE SHOW A ZOO
IN A CIRCUS ALL AT ONCE.
YES AND MUSICAL PERFORMANCE AND
A PARTY AND LAUGHTER AND LOTS
OF GOOD FOOD AND THAT'S ALL
FROM OUR SIDE.
THE FAMILY ALL THESE OTHER
FAMILIES ARE AMAZING TO THEIR
DYNAMICS ARE SOMEWHAT SIMILAR
AS FAR AS THE CLOSENESS BUT
THEY ALL SORT OF HAVE THEIR
LITTLE IDIOSYNCRASIES WE'LL
CALL THEM SEE BECAUSE I'M NICE.
THAT'S WHAT THE TROLLS NEED TO
LEARN ONLINE.
LET'S BE NICE ABOUT WE ALL HAVE
OUR STUFF AND IN FACT WE'RE
HEADED TO VEGAS HERE SOON TO
FILM SMOTHERED KNOWS BEST AND I
HAVE WATCHED AND TALK ABOUT
WHAT WE SEE.
SO WE'RE REALLY INTERESTED IN
SORT OF LIKE HOW AM I GOING AND
HOW THOSE REACTIONS ARE GOING
TO LOOK.
EVERYBODY NEEDS A GOOD HEALTHY
ROBOT.
REAL QUICK BEFORE WE LET YOU GO
BECAUSE WE'RE OUT OF TIME, WHAT
IS THE NAME OF YOUR WHAT IS IT
A MEATBALL COMPANY?
OH YEAH.
SO IT'S A COMPANY IS MY BOSS.
YOU GUYS ARE TOO CUTE BUT WE
CANNOT WAIT TO SEE
