Laila Ali, the daughter of the legendary Muhammad Ali, always finds a way to stay relevant. This time, she was part of a prestigious event.

Thus, Laila’s promotion of her laurel speaks volumes about her involvement in social issues. Moreover, fans as well have swamped the comment section with best wishes for Rosalie.
