Nasheed was in relationship with his girlfriend Alexis "Peanut" Cobb, a former American model for around 7 years before finally getting married in late 2014. He and his wife have two sons together. The birthdate and name of their eldest son are not known. The couple welcomed their second son named Asir Nasheed on 15 February 2015.

Tariq Nasheed also has a daughter, born on 2 December 1999. The proud father shared that on June 7, 2018, his daughter graduated high school, thus congratulating her. But who is his daughter’s baby mama? 

Since Tariq Nasheed and Peanut Nasheed were not dating when his daughter was born, we doubt Peanut Nasheed is actually her mother. Her mother may be a former girlfriend of Tariq Nasheed.

The married couple seems to be happy with their marriage. Nasheed seems to know how to make his wife happy. As of now, there are no rumors of divorce or extra-marital affairs.
