Nigerian music stars Adekunle Gold and his wife, Simi, have welcomed twin babies, expanding their family with what the singer described as a “double blessing”, Prime Business Africa reports.
Adekunle Gold confirmed the development on Wednesday through his social media pages, where he shared a brief but emotional message expressing gratitude. In the post, he said he asked God for another child and was blessed with two, a statement that immediately sparked widespread excitement among fans and fellow entertainers.
The announcement followed weeks of speculation after Simi appeared visibly pregnant in the music video for Adekunle Gold’s song My Love Is The Same, released in December 2025.
The video, which featured intimate family moments with the couple and their daughter, Adejare Kosoko, popularly known as Deja, had fueled rumours that the family was expecting another child.

While the couple has confirmed the arrival of the twins, they have not publicly disclosed further details such as the babies’ names, gender or exact date of birth, choosing to keep those aspects private for now.
Since the announcement, congratulatory messages have continued to pour in from fans, colleagues in the music industry and well-wishers across social media, celebrating one of Nigeria’s most admired celebrity couples on the arrival of their newest family members.
