Singer Keyshia Cole is all smiles after she let fans and followers in on meeting her father for the first time in 34 years.

Cole could not ignore the resemblance her three-year-old son, Daniel Gibson, Jr. shares with her father, whose name is Virgil Hunter. She shared a side-by-side of the child and his grandfather with the caption, “#Twinsies…”

She also posted a throwback photo of her father, and her mother Frankie, in the time they were together. Cole revealed that Cole and her father, Hunter, weren’t the only ones who reunited after some time as she also shared a photo of Hunter with his arms around her. “Mom and Dad during their time… Mommy was such a cutie! Pop and that mustache tho… LOL!!!! This is a lot to process man, WOW! They met up last night to speak for the first time in 34 years, intense for me, FOR SURE!!!! Mom usually doesn’t have nice things to say about men, but I can tell my heart pumps his blood… God knows!! I Needed this!!!...”


Cole has been extremely open about the ins and outs of her family life ever since her first reality series, The Way It Is that debuted in 2006. We met Frankie in one of the first episodes and that is when her previous battle with drug abuse was exposed. Cole also revealed she was adopted and at the time didn’t have a relationship with her biological father.

That all changed as Cole revealed to fans, ten years later, that she and father have come face-to-face and are building a relationship with one another.
