Gilbert Arenas' ex, Laura Govan, shares a hilarious take about her as "a mom"

Laura Govan, TV personality and Gilbert Arenas' ex-partner, shared a funny meme on Instagram story.

On Friday, Govan shared a video in which a few men were seen rescuing a man hanging by ropes from a building. As soon as the man is on top of the building, safe, the men start hitting him.

"Me as a MOM, I'll Save your life but ima beat your ass ... @hamileyarenas0 @alijah0arenas @aloniarenas @izelaarenas," she captioned the video.

Here's the video she posted:

Laura Govan is known for actively supporting and encouraging her children, as all of them are emerging as top prospects. Her eldest daughter, Izela Arenas, was a freshman guard at the University of Louisville and has now transferred to Kansas State.

Alijah Arenas is set to begin his college basketball career with USC after recovering from a car accident in April. The five-star guard finished high school ranking No. 12 in the Class of 2025. Over his 97-game varsity career, he averaged 30.9 points. He also became the all-time leading scorer in CIF-LA City Section history, with 3,002 points over three seasons.

Meanwhile, Hamiley Arenas had a standout freshman year at Notre Dame Sherman Oaks. She emerged as the team's top scorer, averaging 23.3 points, 10.5 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 2.8 steals and nearly a block per game.

Aloni Arenas, who's still in middle school, plays AAU basketball with Compton Magic but is gaining attention for his skills.
