Family Celebration On Instagram

Tyrese Gibson’s eldest daughter, Shayla, took to Instagram this Father’s Day with a warm tribute to her dad. In a post captioned, “I’m wishing everyone a beautiful Father’s Day. Filled with lots of love and light. We had a wonderful long day today as a family,” Shayla tagged her dad, @tyrese, and included two candid snapshots of the family enjoying the holiday together. The images show Tyrese surrounded by his daughters, smiling under a soft afternoon glow.

Memorable Moments From Years Past

This isn’t the first time Shayla and her younger sister, Soraya, have marked Father’s Day with special social media shout-outs. Back in 2019, Tyrese shared a snap from Shayla’s earlier post, “Daddy Day! They got dressed and is cutting up – These two in the vibes!!!!!!” that featured the girls in matching outfits, clearly thrilled to celebrate their dad. In 2022, another post from @tyrese quoted Shayla’s playful reaction when she spotted her dad on TV: “Dad we pulled over, they are showing Seven’s dad’s movie? Only Seven’s dad’s movie?? Omg too damn cute princess Soraya… One day she will grow up and be told her dad IS Baby Boy… But it’s ok… lol.”

Those throwback posts highlight Tyrese’s pride in his Hollywood career. His breakout role in John Singleton’s Baby Boy (2001) remains a talking point for fans—especially among his little girls who delight in seeing Dad on screen.

A Growing Family Legacy

Tyrese Gibson and his wife, Samantha Lee Gibson, welcomed daughter Shayla-Denise in March 2019. In July 2021, the couple added a second daughter, Soraya June, via surrogate. While Tyrese’s busy schedule on Fast & Furious and Transformers films could keep him away from home, he makes Father’s Day a priority. Shayla’s post underscores the close bond they’ve formed, calling herself “#daddysgirl” and celebrating “#familylove❤️.”

Outside of parenting, Tyrese’s multi-platinum music career and acting achievements have spanned two decades. A Grammy nominee and bestselling author, he remains active on social media with over 15 million Instagram followers, often sharing motivational messages alongside family moments.

This year’s Father’s Day post continues a tradition of public appreciation from Tyrese’s girls. For fans, it offers a candid look at the softer side of the action star and R&B vocalist.

As Shayla wrote in her caption, the day was “filled with lots of love and light.” From posed portraits to spontaneous smiles, the Gibson family clearly made Father’s Day one to remember.

Whether Tyrese is behind the camera or on set for the next blockbuster, these posts show that his greatest role may be the one he plays at home.

Tyrese’s journey from recording studios to blockbuster sets—and now to doting dad moments—illustrates how family anchors him through every phase of his life.
