You can’t spell “smother” without “mother” — a lesson that will be abundantly clear now that Jenifer Lewis (Meet the Browns, Strong Medicine) has boarded "black-ish" in the recurring role of Dre’s (Anthony Anderson) overbearing mom.

Lewis’ character Ruby is described as follows: “She smothers pork chops with gravy, Dre with love, and would like to flat out smother Dre's wife Rainbow (Tracee Ellis Ross), who feels the same way about her.”

Lewis will make her first appearance later this season, according to the network.
