Miguel's other sibling, Mikey Lorna Tyson, had quite a rough start. She was named after her father, but Mike didn't accept her as his daughter until she was eight months old. Her mother, Kimberly Scarborough, also claimed that she almost didn't have Mikey because she was told to "get rid" of her.

Her dad finally came around, and her mom revealed that the former boxer wanted to be "a proper dad" to his daughter. Mikey seems to be living a low-key life and often posts images of her cooking on Instagram.
