Fans Marvel Over Gucci Mane’s Strong Resemblance to His Wife Keyshia Ka’Oir’s Late Father: ‘Uhhhh’

Keyshia Ka’Oir‘s latest post threw fans for quite a loop.

The 34-year-old serial entrepreneur shared a sweet Father’s Day post dedicated to her late father and also her husband Gucci Mane. She posted a wedding photo of her and the “Make Love” rapper from October 2017 ceremony with her late father’s face digitally plastered in the middle.

Dedicating the post to seemingly two of the most important men in her life, she wrote in her Instagram caption Sunday afternoon “Happy Fathers Day Daddy🙏.”

Fans abruptly flooded Ka’Oir’s photo with positive remarks.

“Happy Father’s Day to your dad and Gucci 🙏🏽 #tearsofjoy I’m sure he’s looking down on y’all.”

“This is so touching N heartfelt N always loved N remembered N respected, cared may he RIP.”

Other fans were more blown away by how Gucci favored his wife’s father, claiming they even had the same smile.

“He looks like ur dad!!! Now I see why you fell in love!!! ❤ they even have the same smile.”

“Wtf what?! Gucci look like her daddy that’s weird af.”

“Gucci looks like your dad a little I see why you in love he reminds you of your dad 🙏🏿.”

“Uhhh Why Gucci Man favor your father? Damn you sure Wop not ya brother 🤷.”

Ka’Oir spoke about her father’s death during an interview with the Breakfast Club in 2017. She claimed to have watched her father get murdered at the age of 10.

“He was coming home one night and they [suspects] were outside in the bushes waiting for him to walk in and they shot him in his head, we [her and her siblings] were inside,” she said.

Ka’Oir also said her father’s death was a reason she and Gucci decided to keep her three children who are from a previous relationship out of the public eye.

“Gucci and I both have children,” she told the Breakfast Club, clearing up rumors accusing her of abandoning them in Jamaica. “It’s a situation where I’m proud to be a mother, but I need it to be private. I don’t need the kids in the limelight. I don’t want them on social media. I need them to go to school and just be children.”

Her children were, however, featured at their extravagant wedding ceremony in October 2017. The event was televised by BET for their television series “The Mane Event.” Despite the BET extravaganza’s appearances, the couple actually tied the knot in May 2017, they revealed last month.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
