90 Day Fiancé: Syngin Colchester Shockingly Becomes "Dad" With GF Shayna After Refusing To Have Baby With Tania Maduro

Syngin Colchester from 90 Day Fiancé has surprisingly started to see himself as a father after three years with his girlfriend, Shayna. He was originally featured on 90 Day Fiancé season 7 with his former American wife, Tania Maduro. After moving to the United States from South Africa, Syngin married Tania in 2018. Despite appearing compatible at first, they soon began arguing about their future goals. Tania wanted to start a family and have a baby, but Syngin didn't envision himself becoming a parent. Ultimately, the couple separated in 2021, and Syngin moved on with his life.

Syngin recently posted a picture of Shayn's pet lizard on his Instagram Story with the caption, "lowkey love being a lizard dad." 90 Day Fiancé viewers may recall that Syngin was initially reluctant to take on the responsibilities of fatherhood, which ultimately led to his breakup with Tania. However, it seems that after meeting Shayna, his long-term partner, he has come to appreciate the idea of being a parental figure.

What Does Syngin Calling Himself A Dad Mean?

Syngin Is Beginning To Take On Parental Responsibilities

When Syngin first arrived in the United States, he was hopeful about his relationship with Tania. However, he soon realized that she might not be his lifelong partner, as she prioritized her own desire over his. In one instance, Tania even broke Syngin's heart by admitting that she didn't see him as her soulmate, revealing that her first boyfriend was her soulmate. Although the couple got married, it's likely that Syngin never fully recovered from that heartbreak. He struggled to find a stable, well-paying job to support Tania when she broke her leg and was unable to work.

Upon seeing Syngin squander his potential and develop into an alcoholic, many fans criticized him for lacking ambition and being lazy. Some were relieved that he didn't have a baby with Tania, fearing that he would become an irresponsible father like some other cast members in the franchise. However, in recent years, Syngin has undergone a significant transformation. He has lost weight, traveled around the world, and been a committed partner to Shayna. The 90 Day Fiancé alum is now displaying the potential to become a responsible adult or even a father.

Our Take On Syngin Identifying Himself As A Dad

Syngin May Not Be Excited About Starting A Family

It's impressive to see Syngin developing paternal feelings, but enjoying being a father figure to Shayna's pet lizard doesn't necessarily mean that he wants to have a child in the future. Syngin and Shayna have an unconventional relationship as they are considering adding a third person to their relationship. Although they consider themselves a family of four with their pet dog and lizard, it's unlikely that they want to have a child together. The 90 Day Fiancé alum lives a free-spirited lifestyle with Shayna, and having a child could potentially interfere with their life goals and desires.
