Bozoma Saint John celebrated a significant milestone in her teenage daughter’s life in grand style, gifting her a $110,200 Maserati Grecale Trofeo. This extravagant gesture marked her daughter Lael’s success in passing her driving test.
The 49-year-old television personality, known for her role on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” since 2024, presented the luxurious vehicle to her 16-year-old daughter in a heartwarming scene aired on Thursday’s episode of the show.
In the episode, viewers watched as Saint John and Lael stood eagerly outside their home. Anticipation filled the air as the Maserati approached, adorned with a striking red bow.
With palpable excitement, Saint John declared, “You’re getting a Maserati! I love you. You deserve it,” before the mother and daughter shared a heartfelt hug.
Adding a personal touch to the occasion, Saint John created custom shirts featuring a mock license with Lael’s photo, which they both wore during this memorable moment.
Saint John also made custom shirts that had a fake license with Lael’s picture on the front which they both donned during the special moment.

The businesswoman welcomed her teenage daughter with late husband Peter Saint John – who passed away in 2013 following a battle with cancer.
She has since become engaged to Keely Watson who popped the big question last year in August.
The intimate proposal had taken place at BOA Steakhouse in West Hollywood while surrounded by only close pals and loved ones.
‘This engagement is my testimony: you can rise from grief, reclaim your joy, and still find a love worthy of your “yes,”‘ Saint John told People at the time.
‘Keely is proof that God’s timing is perfect – and so is His plan. I’m saying yes to life, to love and to the miracle of second chances.’
Last month in January, the TV personality paid tribute to another milestone her daughter was able to reach: dual citizenship.
She took to Instagram to upload a snap of Lael as she held up both a U.S. and Ghana passport with a proud smile on her face.
‘As her mother, the greatest gift I can give her is BELONGING. Lael was born a citizen of the United States and NOW, she is a land-owning citizen of Ghana. Two nations. One daughter. Fully held.’

Saint John has often given her followers a close glimpse at the bond she shares with her teenage daughter.
Last year, the pair whisked themselves away to Australia to ring in Lael’s 16th birthday.
Alongside a video of them dancing in front of the iconic Sydney Opera House, the star explained that the teen pitches a trip each year.
‘My daughter dreams up her birthday trip adventure… and somehow, it’s always more magical than the last,’ the star wrote.
‘And every year, I say YES (after strong critique, while also indulgent in knowing that these trips will come to an end someday).’
Saint John then gushed that her daughter’s ‘imagination has taken us places my heart didn’t even know it needed to go.
‘She’s been pitching these adventures since she was 3 years old… and now, at 16, we’ve journeyed across continents together.
‘I want to give her the world; and I wish we could do this for a thousand years more. Because that’s how long I will love her… Onward, baby girl! ❤️.’

But adventurous trips around the globe is not the only thing that Lael pitches to her famous mom.
The teen also will hold annual board meetings to pitch her Christmas wish list.
Saint John gave a look late last year at one of the meetings which showed her daughter happily giving a presentation on a TV screen.
‘And no… I don’t go easy on her,’ the star wrote. ‘I treat her exactly like I would anyone presenting to me in a boardroom.
‘Weak logic gets challenged. Flimsy arguments get torn apart. Convince me. But Lawdhavmercy. She’s gotten much better over the years…’
On the latest episode of RHOBH, Saint John also gave a candid look at her fertility struggles with Watson.

The couple got an update from a doctor after successfully retrieving two eggs and were informed that ‘neither has made it to the blastocyst stage.’
In a confessional, Saint John admitted to feeling ‘overwhelmed’ before adding that it ‘feels like grief.’
‘It feels like losing a baby. Because that’s how I envisioned them. And so these aren’t just inanimate objects out in the world. These are Keely and I’s babies.’
But her fiance continued to stay positive and encouraging by later saying, ‘Right now, let’s focus on being as healthy as we can for this next round.’
