Congratulatory Messages Flood Social Media as Simi and Adekunle Gold Welcome Second Child

​LAGOS — The Nigerian entertainment landscape is currently awash with celebratory messages as fans, colleagues, and well-wishers storm the digital pages of music stars Simi and Adekunle Gold following the announcement of their second child.

​The “Duduke” singer broke the news via her verified Instagram account on Wednesday evening, April 1, 2026, ending months of intense public speculation. Sharing a series of stylish maternity photos alongside her husband, Simi revealed that the newest addition to their family arrived on March 10, 2026.

​The announcement, captioned “+1. 3.10.26. God bless my little family #mommyof2,” immediately triggered a massive wave of engagement. By tagging herself as a “mother of two,” the singer effectively debunked viral rumors from earlier in the year that suggested the couple had welcomed a set of twins in January. Adekunle Gold further delighted fans by simply commenting, “Daddy of two.”

​The couple’s comment sections have since become a hub for the Nigerian “A-list,” with stars such as Tiwa Savage, Falz, and Temi Otedola leading the outpouring of love. Many fans have praised the couple for their ability to maintain privacy, noting that they managed to enjoy the first few weeks of their newborn’s life away from the camera’s glare.

​While the music duo has opted to keep the baby’s name and gender private for now, the arrival marks a significant milestone for the Kosoko family. This new bundle of joy joins their first daughter, Adejare, who was born in 2020. The couple had previously hinted at the pregnancy in December 2025 through the music video for Adekunle Gold’s track, “My Love Is The Same,” where Simi appeared with a visible baby bump.
