Popular Nigerian music stars Adekunle Kosoko, widely known as Adekunle Gold, and his wife, Simi, have welcomed twins, expanding their family in a joyous double blessing.
The award-winning singer announced the happy news on his Snapchat story on Wednesday, writing: “Asked God for another child and he blessed me double.”
While the couple has kept details private, including the genders of the newborns and the exact birth date, the revelation has triggered an overwhelming wave of congratulations from fans, celebrities, and industry peers across social media.
Speculation about the pregnancy had been building since December, when Simi shared a video clip on Instagram captioned, “From my baby, for my babies.” The post featured her visibly pregnant, with a growing baby bump that heightened fans’ anticipation for another addition to the family.
The twins’ arrival comes shortly after Simi spotlighted a heartfelt scene from Adekunle Gold’s recently released music video for “My Love is the Same,” adding to the excitement surrounding the couple’s growing household.
Adekunle Gold and Simi, who married in a private ceremony in 2019 following years of friendship and collaborative music magic, are celebrated as one of Nigeria’s most endearing power couples. Both artists launched their careers under X3M Music before achieving independent mainstream success.
They previously welcomed their first child, daughter Adejare Kosoko affectionately called Deja in May 2020.
