Did Emily and Shekeb split? 'I Love A Mama's Boy' star Laila says 'it's over'
Shekeb Sekander and Emily Chu's relationship has always been a subject of intense fascination for 'I Love A Mama's Boy' fans. Although it was pretty clear that Emily and Shekeb were madly in love with each other, unfortunately, Shekeb's mother Laila didn't approve of their relationship and went out of her way to express her displeasure with their relationship. From accusing Emily of trying to kill her to calling her a pig, Laila tried every trick in the book to get her son to split from his girlfriend, but none of her plans worked.
However, during the season 1 finale Emily and Laila got into a huge fight which ended with Emily walking out and calling it quits with Shekeb. But the couple soon got back together, and season 2 picked up from right where things were left off. Laila continues to hate and disapprove of Emily, while Shekeb continues to try to woo Emily and create truce between the two important ladies in his life. This time around he also wanted to make a grand gesture to Emily to show her that he was all-in on their relationship and loved her. So, he decided to propose to her. When Laila heard that Shekeb was planning on proposing to Emily, she immediately stepped in and convinced her son to put off the engagement for a little later and urged him to instead test her and their relationship by presenting her with a promise ring. Laila explained that if Emily was really in love with Shekeb then she would happily accept the promise ring, and this would also earn her some brownie points in Ms. Laila's book. Laila felt that Emily's response would give Shekeb a peek into her intentions and feelings towards their relationship.
