Kari use to play and practice under her father’s training. Although she has spent most of her time with her father, she has never said anything bad about her father. As per Time, she has said Sheila is an amazing human.

Kari explained,

“Obviously, a mother’s really important in those first few years of a child’s life, in that nurturing phase, and then after that, I believe fathers are actually almost more important.”
