Fao Shyshy Sets Internet Ablaze Over Daddy’s Gifts and Dzaddy Amore Drama

Fao Shyshy, a sensational Kenyan influencer and actress, shared her elation on the internet as her father showered her with gifts.

Shyshy kept her large Instagram following posted and, like clockwork, updated her story with the deets. But the internet had a lot to say, and not all of it was good news.

Fao Shyshy is an Instagram influencer and actress from the Kenyan comedy series ‘Nurse Toto’; she also shows promotional support for Olmeca tequila, a Mexican alcoholic drink distributed worldwide. But that’s not all she’s about.

Amidst her ‘soft life and hard work’ balance motto, there’s an appeal. A hook, and perhaps that’s why she’s been able to amass and maintain such a following.

Unlucky in love

Somewhere in her mid-20s as of 2025, it would be easy to advise her to slow down in the love department because clearly it has taken a toll on her.

Fao has faced ‘ghosting’ and breadcrumbing in her relationships, teaching her that just like any task in life, a little consistency goes a long way. All this from an interview on the Obinna show live.

Shyshy confessed that she’s had her heart broken twice in her life. She claimed that, in her first romantic encounter, with Dzaddy Amore, it got to a point where she contemplated ending her life.

‘More than seven’ incidences of cheating changed her view on love entirely. Following the first one, Shyshy chuckled and added the second encounter wasn’t any better.

In early 2025 it was revealed that Fao had found love with a new suitor by the name Mkulima, with evidence to support the rumors. Which calls attention to her current romantic status.

Daddy’s girl

On her Insta, Shyshy poured her heart out:

‘Someday i’m gonna get a man who gets me flowers and chocolates on my periods like my dad does, no romance out here at all. So ghetto damn. Very much in my feels atm, nothing fascinating at all.’

Her ex, Dzaddy Amore, commented in a Nairobi Gossip club post reminding everyone that he bought her flowers as well. But to some it was a reminder that not many people have experienced paternal, or even parental, love.

Is parental love taboo?

To sum it up, ‘Not all men are created equally.’

A quote from Pierce Brown’s book perfectly sums it up. Single parenthood is on the rise, not only by women but also by men as well. Strained relationships with parents and caregivers are not a new reality.

Not everyone has experienced parental love, and traction around Shyshy’s plight highlights that.Society would be much better if everyone acted right, but that is not the case.

Those who are happily in love may not have parents who care by their side, and vice versa. If anyone has either, doesn’t that mean they’re lucky in their own right?
