Veteran Actress Toyosi Adesanya Breaks ‘Barrenness’ Jinx, Welcomes Baby Girl via Surrogacy

The long, agonizing wait for the fruit of the womb has finally ended for veteran Nollywood actress Toyosi Adesanya and her husband, Bola Oyinadejobi, as they officially welcomed a bouncing baby girl into their home.

​The news, which has sent shockwaves of joy through the Nigerian entertainment industry, was confirmed by her close colleague and “surrogacy advocate,” Biola Bayo, who took to social media to announce the arrival of the “miracle baby.”

​For years, Toyosi Adesanya has been a subject of hushed conversations and, at times, insensitive social media commentary regarding her journey to motherhood. Having been in the industry for decades, the actress had reportedly faced numerous silent battles behind the scenes in her quest to conceive.

​However, in a move that highlights the growing acceptance of alternative medical solutions in Nigeria, the couple opted for surrogacy to complete their family.

​Biola Bayo, who has herself been vocal about the struggles of IVF and surrogacy, couldn’t hide her excitement as she shared the news on Saturday.

​“I am a godmother again!!! Congratulations to all of us! @officialadesanyatoyosi and @bola_oyinadejobi just welcomed a bouncing baby girl through their surrogate mom,” she posted, accompanied by celebratory emojis.

​Bayo also gave a massive shout-out to the medical team, led by Dr. Ivie, who managed the process since 2024, ensuring that the journey, which many thought was impossible, ended in praise.

​The news has triggered an unprecedented wave of emotional tributes from colleagues who have watched Toyosi’s struggle over the years. Stars like Foluke Daramola, Mercy Aigbe, and Muyiwa Ademola have flooded the comment sections with prayers, describing the birth as a “vindications of faith.”

​One fan wrote: “This is the news we’ve been waiting for! Toyosi has cried enough, now it is time for her to dance. God is indeed faithful.”

​Toyosi’s decision to go public with the surrogacy route is being hailed as a bold step in breaking the stigma associated with infertility in the Nigerian movie industry. By embracing this medical miracle, she joins the likes of Biola Bayo and Toke Makinwa in showing that there are many paths to becoming a mother.

​As of the time of this report, the new mother is said to be in high spirits, basking in the euphoria of her new status as “Mummy Diamond.”
