yrese Gibson is celebrating daughter Shayla Gibson as she prepares for her next chapter at Savannah College of Art and Design.
The actor recently shared photos alongside his ex-wife Norma Mitchell and their daughter after the family came together to celebrate Shayla’s acceptance to SCAD.
One image showed the trio standing outside a Starbucks while holding custom “SCAD 2030” shirts they made together during a stop at Walmart’s arts and crafts section.

“We pulled over at Walmart went to the arts and crafts section grabbed 3 shirts and decided to compete on who can make the best SCAD SHIRT,” Tyrese wrote on Instagram.
He added, “Of course I smoked them both.”
The post also included an older beach photo of Tyrese and Norma during her pregnancy with Shayla. Text across the image read: “Gibson Heir In the oven.”
The carousel quickly caught fans’ attention because it showed a rare public family moment between Tyrese and Norma after years of ups and downs surrounding their co-parenting journey. The former couple previously faced a lengthy custody battle over Shayla that often played out publicly over the years.
The focus now, however, appears to be on supporting Shayla as she closes out high school and prepares for college life.
Over the last few days, Tyrese has documented several major milestones for the teenager, including her recent prom celebration.
In videos and photos he posted online, the teenager posed beside her date before heading to the dance.
The proud dad wore an all white embellished suit for the occasion, while Shayla stunned in a sparkling champagne colored gown with a thigh high slit. Her date coordinated in a black tuxedo with a velvet bow tie.
Alongside the prom video, Tyrese reflected on watching his daughter grow up and prepare for her next chapter.
“This is my first born, Shayla Gibson… The heir to the Gibson legacy and empire that I’m still building brick by brick,” he wrote in part.
The Fast & Furious star also revealed that Shayla had been accepted into college on a full scholarship.
“My baby just got accepted into college on a full ride,” he shared.
Shayla is expected to begin classes at SCAD later this year.
