Tariq Nasheed has been married to Peanut Nasheed since 2014. He has a total of four children, three with his wife (TJ Nasheed, Asir Cairo Nasheed, and Mateo Nasheed) and one from a previous relationship (Taria Nasheed).
Tariq Nasheed, also known as King Flex, is an actor, producer, and social media commentator who takes pride in calling himself the “World’s #1 Race Baiter”. He is also a singer, a writer, and a fashion designer.
The American is quite a controversial figure who has attracted the wrath of many people online because of the views he shares on a wide range of issues. But as much as he has had people gunning for his throat, Nasheed has been relentless with spreading his opinions and seems to have no regard for the people who finds them offensive.
He has published several controversial books like The Art of Gold Digging and wouldn’t stop calling black women who date outside of their race “bed wenches” to the irk of many.
While Tariq Nasheed has always been known for what he does, he came to mainstream attention in the late 90s when Michael Moore hired him to create some political satire material for a show on the Bravo networks.
The New York Times best-seller author has a lot going for him in his career, add that to the buzz he generates with his social media comments and it becomes easy to see why people have become inquisitive about his personal life, with many wondering about the kind of husband and father he is. It seems Nasheed prefers to keep his private life away from the limelight but there is so much he can keep away from the public.

Meet Peanut Nasheed, The Wife of The Controversial Social Media Commentator
You wouldn’t have to search hard to find that Tariq Nasheed was born on the 1st of July 1974 and that his place of birth was in Detroit, Michigan. Dig a little deeper and you would learn that he was raised for a while in Detroit before he relocated and settled in Birmingham, Alabama.
If you want more information and search for it, you will also find that he left Birmingham for Los Angeles when he turned 17. All of these details, when it comes to his wife Peanut Nasheed, are not readily available.
In case you are wondering if Peanut is her real name, it isn’t. Reports have it that she was named Alexis Cobb after she was birthed. Where she was born and the year is yet to be uncovered, it is only known that she celebrated her birthday every 30th of December. The kind of upbringing Peanut had, the family she hails from, the identity of her parents, and who her siblings are (if she has any) are part of the information that has not been disclosed to the public about her.
While some reports claim that Tariq Nasheed graduated from Yale University, nothing is known about his wife’s academic pursuits. However, it has been claimed in some quarters that she is college-educated.
In terms of career, her husband has been practically everywhere from singing to writing, acting, directing, and producing multiple projects. This can’t be said about Peanut; like other basic information about her, what she does for a living has been quite a mystery, at least to the public. It is said that she once worked as a model but it doesn’t seem much came out of that.
The Couple Has Been Married Since 2014
To a large extent, Peanut Nasheed has existed in the shadows of her husband’s popularity. Most people have come to know her as a former model but she is mostly known as the wife of Tariq Nasheed and the mother of his kids. Because of the advice and talks her husband gives from time to time on relationships, Peanut’s marriage to Tariq has become something a lot of people are interested in keeping up with.
The reason for this is not far-fetched: they are curious about how he sustains his relationship; if the things he teaches are traceable in his marriage. This curiosity has largely not been met, all the public gets about their union are family pictures uploaded on social media platforms.
How Tariq and Peanut met has remained an untold story just as the circumstances surrounding the beginning of their relationship are best known to them and perhaps, their close friends and family members. It is not known when they began dating but multiple platforms claim they dated for several years before they decided to become life partners.
Again, nothing is known about their engagement and subsequent marriage; we can only confirm that they got married sometime in 2014. This means their union is a few years shy of clocking a decade. If anything, it is a testament to the fact that their marriage has stood the test of time.
While Peanut is nowhere to be found online, the pictures Tariq shares online say a lot about his family. As a husband, he loves his wife dearly and as a father, he has been actively involved in the life of his kids. He has several pictures and videos of the quality time they spend together during family vacations littered all over his social media pages.
Tariq Nasheed and Peanut Nasheed Are Parents to Three Kids Thus Far
Despite his busy schedule, Tariq Nasheed creates the time to be with his wife as they co-parent the three kids they have had so far. Apart from his three kids with Peanut, Tariq Nasheed had a child from a previous relationship; so he is a father of four. Meet his children:
Taria Nasheed

Taria Nasheed is Tariq Nasheed’s first child, he had her in a previous relationship before he got married to Peanut. Tariq is very proud of her and she is a part of the family he has build with Taria.
TJ Nasheed
- Date of Birth: February 16, 2013

Asir Cairo Nasheed
- Date of Birth: February 16, 2015
- Age: 9 Years Old

Meet the second child and son of Tariq Nasheed and his wife Peanut Nasheed. Asir Cario Nasheed was born at home in February 2015. Moments after his birth, his father shared online that a “team of sistas (sic)” served as the midwives for his birth. According to him, birthing Asri at home offered an experience better than what he had experienced with hospital birth.
Mateo Nasheed
- Date of Birth: September 10, 2016
- Age: 7 Years Old
- Occupation: Undetermined
Mateo is the youngest child of the couple at the moment and like the rest of his siblings, much isn’t known about him. Tariq and his wife have been quite protective of their kids but in the fullness of time, more facts will emerge about them.
