Latto and Brooklyn Nikole didn’t just show up for Father’s Day with a card and a quick hug. In a video shared on social media. the sisters spend time with their dad. Shayne Stephens. as he walks near an outdoor plaza holding two Louis Vuitton bags—while they trail behind in matching “we planned this” style.
Stephens is dressed in a yellow polo shirt and jeans. Nikole wears a hot pink tracksuit, and Latto—known as the ‘Big Mama’ rapper—sports red sweats and a black jacket. Both sisters have their hair styled in long ponytails. One of the recap posts is captioned, “Daddy’s Girl at [red heart emoticon].”
The moment that had everyone watching closely: the sisters lead their dad to a bow-wrapped car. It’s a matte-black Ram TRX, sitting with a giant red bow on top.
Roomies quickly flooded the comment sections with praise. In The Shade Room’s comment section, over 700 reactions came in after the Father’s Day surprise. Many leaned into the history, others just focused on how good it looked—fire and heart-face emojis, clapping hands, and sweet messages poured in.
“He deserves it he been backing her since the rap game! 👏🔥,” commented @calixmommie.
@_themarriedmom added, “You can tell he use to sh*t, he like another one ? I’ll take it !😂.”
Another follower, @thetaylorwatxoxo, wrote, “I always felt bad for him. Idk what he did to strain their relationship but looking at the rap game he really loved and believed in his daughter and supported her dreams.”
“IYKYK…. the dad played a MAJOR part in her career. Latto been doing this rap sh*t,” said @ceeno96. @gorgeous_laurynnn shared, “He supported her before the rap game this is well deserved 🙌❤️.”
“I would f**kin cry my daughter do some sh*t like that for me,” wrote @slumgodj. @ticamonae said, “He seem like he have a good heart at end of day. So glad they figured it out 🩵.”
@mo_monday_ added, “I’m so glad they worked things out ❤️❤️,” while @alexislovesme kept it simple: “This is dope! Love the color too! 🩶🩶🩶.”
The holiday surprise landed with extra weight because Latto and Shayne Stephens have not always had a smooth relationship. She was introduced to the industry as a father-daughter management duo. Then. in 2024. Latto accused her dad of stealing from her—sharing a comment on her Instagram Story after reportedly reposting a video of a father and her pilot dad. In that Story, she captioned the repost: “Awww. My dad steals from me and tells everyone I’m in the Illuminati.”.
The year before, in 2023, Latto told XXL she felt regrets about mixing business and family.
“…Mixing family and business, that’s, like, one of my biggest regrets. I was introduced to everyone with my dad as my manager, and now we don’t even speak, so it’s like, I hate that,” Latto reportedly said.
It’s unclear when the two worked through their differences. But Stephens has been shown in Latto’s world again—he was present at her cheetah-inspired baby shower, and he even shared footage from the event that went viral.
On Father’s Day, the message was clear, at least for the camera: Latto and Brooklyn Nikole made sure their dad’s celebration ended with something unmistakable—a matte-black Ram TRX, topped with a giant red bow, right where he could see it.
