Two dads who grew a large internet following due to their photo-perfect family have split up.
Kordale and Kaleb Lewis received a huge following online, after posting a picture of them getting their daughters ready for school last year.
Following the incident, they also began to receive racist and homophobic abuse online, which snowballed into a torrent of hate mail.
The pair – who have spoken out against homophobia and appeared in ad campaigns together – have now confirmed they have split.
Kaleb Lewis said in a letter to the pair’s fans: “No matter what, these kids will forever and always be in my heart. My love for them will always prevail even if ‘Daddy’ and I are no longer together.
“I constantly remind them of my love and continue to be their ‘Pops’ in this screwed up situation that has recently transpired between their dad and me.
“Thanks to everyone who stuck with us and fought with us, I am sorry this had to end but I needed to be true with you all and I needed to be true with myself.”
The pair spoke previously about how the viral picture changed their lives.
They said: “It was simple, innocent picture… and then next thing you know it, went viral. The comments were a trip. It didn’t make me feel any way because I know they don’t know what we go through. I know they don’t know our children.
“They don’t know our lifestyles, they don’t know how we live. A picture is so much more than a thousand words.
“We as parents bring kids into the world, and we have to guide them to be better people than we are… and we want them to succeed and do things that we weren’t able to do.
“Those kids have our heart.”
Hummm… Odikwa egwu
**Clutches Chest**
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! They actually looked so nice together……..and hot too! Watapen? **dabs teary eyes**
And Max, u better b nice oh! Dont come nd compound this emotional moment for us biko! Lets use this post for sober reflection, inugo?
Giving me cause to doubt my white picket dreams with Ke…..
So sad.
Kim was married for 72 days, Britney spears was married for 55 hours!
Gay people are humans too who divorce their lovers and/or have break ups too. It doesn’t mean anything!
Awwwwww and they were so much in love. *clutch PP, why did they have to separate, why is this world full of pain*
This is really sad… And they were the poster couple of a perfect gay relationship…*sighs*
Why do all good things come to an end..?
Nothing is perfect after all..
I love my ED and PDR. They refuse to let the media, the public and the world in general get in their business and matrimony. I look up to those two inspirational people who also happen to be my role model couple.
Can someone send my love to every gay couple on earth? Tell them they inspire me a lot
It was going to happen anyway. In a relationship, when one person does the work of getting the kids ready and the other takes pictures of perfectly formed abs, what did we think was going to happen?
Eiya
Wait o no one has said why they are parting ways. Pls PP do organise a post about that I really want to know why. I always learn from other people. Three lovely kids are enough for me to stay……. Abeg I need closure so I don’t get pessimistic about the whole thing . who gets the kids? In Rihanna’s voice “what now?” I am not happy. Colossus you may have a point.
***rips off silk hermes scarf and scatters long hair*** OMG!!! Nooooo …. this is heartbreaking!!! they were so good together!!! **sobs***
I don’t feel shit for them, They were never married and are not the first couple to breakup either. It happens. Especially when you make your relationship a social media gallery piece.
I bet Kordale (the dark skin nigga) constantly cheated on Caleb. I lived in ATL and heard things about them. Sex party rumors and stuff. Look at his face even you would just know lol. Besides Caleb kinda implied it when he said that he has been “disrespected” continuously and even on a family vacation!!!
I always knew their relationship was bullshit fake and all done for fame. I like to think I was right – sadly tho. They both celebrated the idea of finally being able to legally get married in Georgia (where they both live) that day Gay marriage was legalized federally and suddenly it must have dawned on them that oh this family shit is now real and barely a few weeks after, one of them bails smh. I was patiently waiting to see if they would prove me wrong and throw us a beautiful white Instagram wedding but alas!
I certainly do feel sorry for those poor kids tho, They would be sad and confused as hell. Poor poor darlings…
They’re so cute;mtchewww why d split kwanu
Aproko chairlady
Sober reflection… Hahahahahahahaa!!!
Awww…this is sad.they looked so perfect, with their perfect kids and perfect abs…chai.

Caleb is leaving the relationship because he feels “disrespected” – his word.
Poor family.
I wonder if DM is reminiscing about a certain someone.
They looked so good together….
Meanwhile, why can’t I see what i’m typin?
Dear Lord, just what KD needs, a shining example of long lasting gay relationships. Max is gonna have field day…..
Oh well.
I wish them well in their seperate lives. If only their lives weren’t so public, it would have been easier for them to bear. I can only imagine the torrents of mail they’d both be getting.
And they even have pretty kids to take care of….which makes it the more sad.
I wish them well.
Read about it on mediatakeout. So sad but of that’s what makes them happy. They should consider the kids in any decision they plan to make about the divorce. I wish them well in their future endeavours.
