More On Shayla Gibson & Tyrese’s Relationship
As The Shade Room previously reported, in May 2024, Tyrese and Shayla Gibson’s mom, Norma Mitchell, made headlines when it was reported that she was seeking a restraining order against him. This, reportedly occurred after Tyrese took to social media, bashing Norma’s alleged actions.
After the online posts, Norma Mitchell reportedly filed a defamation lawsuit against the singer, per TMZ. In it, she accused him of alleging that she committed false, fraudulent financial actions. Additionally, she accused him of disclosing private information about their daughter and her school. Ultimately, Mitchell requested the restraining order for herself and their daughter.
Despite this, PEOPLE reports that Tyrese and Shayla Gibson kept a close relationship and appeared on red carpets together. It is rumored that Shayla ultimately decided to live full-time with her dad in 2025. However, that claim remains unconfirmed.
