Rumors Surrounding iShowSpeed’s Daughter
There have been circulating rumors about iShowSpeed being the father of a daughter even before he rose to fame as one of the fastest-growing streamers on YouTube. However, not everyone is convinced that these rumors are true.
Several reasons contribute to the skepticism. Firstly, iShowSpeed was born on January 21, 2005. This means that when the rumors initially emerged, he was only 16 years old, which, although not impossible, is uncommon for teenage parenthood. According to statistics, only 13.1 percent of teenage women aged 15 to 19 gave birth in the United States in 2021. Secondly, no details regarding his rumored daughter have been disclosed, and she has never made an appearance on his streams.
On stream, iShowSpeed has claimed to have a daughter and has even introduced girls in his videos as his daughter. Nevertheless, Speed is known for pranking and trolling his fans with outlandish statements, which further fuels doubts about the authenticity of his claims.
So, what is the truth? Does iShowSpeed truly have a daughter, or is he simply trolling? As someone who has extensively covered him and his career for years, my opinion is that he is trolling. However, let’s examine the evidence.
Investigating the Truth: Does iShowSpeed Have a Daughter?
During a live Q&A session on February 26, 2021, iShowSpeed responded to a question about his daughter’s whereabouts by claiming that she was “in his room right now.” He called out to her, supposedly revealing her name as Diamond, but did not actually show her to his fans.
A year later, in April 2022, iShowSpeed reiterated his claim during a stream by stating that he lives with his mother, two siblings, and his daughter. He even featured a video in June 2022 where he showcased a little girl on stream and referred to her as his daughter in the title.
As for iShowSpeed’s fans, they are divided regarding the existence of his daughter. Some are convinced that he is simply trolling, while others believe that he does have a daughter, although she might not be the girl shown on stream. These fans speculate that he chooses to keep his daughter’s life private.
