Popular Nigerian artist David Adeleke, often known as Davido, revealed at the United Masters Select Con event on Sunday that he and his wife, Chioma, are expecting twins. The news comes at a difficult time for the celebrity couple, who recently lost their son, Ifeanyi, in a tragic pool accident in October.
Davido expressed the overwhelming emotions he and Chioma experienced upon discovering they were expecting twins. “When my wife and I found out, we were shaking, and it was in the same month my son passed. My son passed away last year in October, and my wife gave birth this year in October,” he revealed.
The ‘Timeless’ crooner, visibly moved by the poignant coincidence, continued, “I was at the point of giving up. A beautiful boy and girl came back in double. I kept the faith despite it being very hard.”
The couple had been discreet about their pregnancy until they were recently spotted with their newborn twins in a video released on Friday. The joyous occasion follows a period of mourning and grief for Davido and Chioma, who faced the tragic loss of their young son just a year ago.
The audience at the United Masters Select Con event listened intently as Davido shared the emotional rollercoaster he and Chioma went through, from the depths of sorrow to the unexpected blessing of twins. The singer expressed gratitude for the gift of new life during a time of personal hardship.
Fans and well-wishers have flooded social media with messages of congratulations and support for Davido and Chioma, celebrating the arrival of the twins as a ray of light in the midst of darkness.
