Nigerian recording artists Simi and Adekunle Gold have welcomed their second child, confirming the birth through a direct social media announcement. The couple shared the update on Wednesday evening, providing the exact delivery date while addressing earlier speculation surrounding the arrival.
In an Instagram post featuring maternity photographs, Simi disclosed that the infant was delivered on March 10, 2026. She accompanied the images with a caption reading, “+1. 3.10.26. God bless my little family. Mommyof2.” Her husband, Adekunle Gold, responded in the comments section by writing “Daddy of two.” The coordinated update confirmed the expansion of their household and clarified recent claims that the couple had delivered twins in January. By referencing a single birth date and publicly identifying as parents to two children, the artists dispelled the rumors without addressing their origin. Consistent with their established approach to family privacy, neither musician disclosed the newborn’s name or gender in the initial update.
Both artists married in 2019 and have consistently maintained boundaries between their public careers and private household. Their first child, a daughter, was born in 2020, and the pair has historically limited media access to their children’s daily lives. The announcement rapidly circulated across digital platforms, drawing engagement from audiences across multiple regions. The response underscores the sustained public interest in the personal developments of prominent figures within Nigeria’s contemporary music industry.
Formal details regarding the child’s identity will likely emerge through future public statements, should the family decide to share additional information. Both musicians are expected to resume their professional commitments as they adjust to their expanded household. Management representatives for Simi and Adekunle Gold have not released further statements as of publication.
