Joe Lara And Natasha Pavlovich’s Relationship

Anyway, the year 2010 saw them have a daughter. Shortly afterward, the family moved to Nashville so that Joe could pursue his dreams of becoming a country music star. Natasha describes this decision as part of a deal they had made with each other. Joe had until their daughter reached kindergarten to pursue his music career, and if it did not pan out by then, they would move to Chicago.
