Keyshia Cole: The Full Story of Her Children and Family Life
Singer, actress, and occasional tabloid subject Keyshia Cole is the proud mother of two boys. In fact, they’re the main reason you haven’t heard as much from the performer over the last few years.
Who are Keyshia Cole’s children, and what are the kids’ ages?
Keyshia’s oldest son, Daniel, was born March 2, 2010. Nearly 10 years later her youngest son, Tobias, was born Aug. 1, 2019. As of this writing, Daniel is 14 and Tobias is 4. Keyshia currently co-parents both of her children with their respective fathers.
Keyshia Cole’s baby daddies are a former NBA player and a fellow singer.
Keyshia and former NBA player Daniel Gibson got engaged on Jan. 1, 2010 (smart idea, that’s an easy date to remember). Daniel was born in March and the two wed the following year on May 21, 2011. They separated in 2014, Keyshia announced a divorce in 2017, and it was finalized in 2020.
Keyshia dated fellow singer Niko Khale from November 2017 until October 2020. The two welcomed Tobias to the world in the midst of their four-year relationship. Niko, who is 14 years Keyshia’s junior, is consistently sharing photos and videos of Tobias and himself on his Instagram feed.
The multiplatinum singer certainly has her hands full.
When asked about juggling her career and parenting, Keyshia spoke about those troubles to Essence in a March 5, 2022 profile. “My youngest child, his father, takes him every other week. He’s really hands-on, probably because he’s so little right now. My oldest really wants me to leave him alone as much as possible – I try not to – but his father is there as well … Also, I have never had a real nanny, somebody that helps me keep a schedule. For the most part, I’ve been trying to do things alone.”
Speaking of babies, is there one in Keyshia Cole’s future?
On April 9, 2024, Essence ran “Does Keyshia Cole Have a New Man?” Based on Instagram, it sure looks like it. That man is rapper Hunxho, who is 18 years younger than Keyshia. If he’s ready to be a dad and Keyshia (who turned 42 in October 2023) plans on sticking to her word about wanting a daughter, the two brothers may have a new sibling sometime soon.
