Popular Nigerian music stars Adekunle Kosoko, professionally known as Adekunle Gold, and his wife, Simi, have welcomed twins, the couple announced on Wednesday. The news, shared by Adekunle Gold on his Snapchat story, confirms the expansion of their family.
“Asked God for another child and he blessed me double,” Simi wrote, celebrating the joyous occasion. While the couple has not revealed the gender of the newborns, the announcement has drawn widespread congratulations from fans, fellow celebrities, and colleagues in the music industry.
Speculation about a new addition to their family had grown in December when Simi shared an Instagram video captioned, “From my baby, for my babies,” showing her baby bump and fueling anticipation. The excitement further escalated following the release of Adekunle Gold’s latest music video, “My Love is the Same,” in which Simi made a cameo appearance.
Adekunle Gold and Simi, who tied the knot in 2019 after a long-standing friendship and musical collaboration, remain one of Nigeria’s most admired entertainment power couples. Both artists previously signed with X3M Music before achieving mainstream success and critical acclaim.
The couple welcomed their first child, Adejare Kosoko, fondly known as Deja, in May 2020. The arrival of twins adds to their growing family and strengthens their position as a prominent and influential couple in Nigeria’s entertainment landscape.
