“The toughest part for me is not being able to be there as much as I’d like to,” the singer told Good Morning America. “I’m missing milestones as we speak, not that I don’t love being here with y’all, but my daughter [Marilyn] just said her first full sentence and I’m not there, so that sucks a little bit.”
Ne-Yo also commented on fatherhood in general saying, “It’s really not as difficult as people made it out to be. I expected it to be way harder. My kids are my friends, we cool.”
Shaffer and his girlfriend Monyetta Shaw have two children together: Madilyn, 20 months, and Mason,10 months.

Beautiful pic
I’m sure he is a great dad and I noticed in his new video he has been hitting the gym hard. He is looking good and I love the new single he has out. His daughter is a cutie!!
Love that photo. She looks like an angel!
**I still feel sad for Ne-Yo for how his ex did him, having him believe that 1st child was his when it really wasn’t smh
The above pic is so cute!
Loving the above picture of her sleeping on his shoulder. I still cannot believe they are 10 months apart. Wow. Take them with you Ne-Yo, Usher does it!
It’s just something about a man with his kids (especially daughters) that I absolutely love
I bet Ne-yo is a great dad! I love seeing daddy’s with their kids it warms my heart!
Simply adorable. Ne-yo must be so happy.
