Having a child out of wedlock can be a challenging situation for anyone, and it becomes even more complicated when you are a celebrity. Nigerian female celebrities, in particular, often face scrutiny and judgment from the public. As a result, some have chosen to keep the identity of their baby daddies private. Here are six Nigerian female celebrities who have been extremely secretive about the fathers of their babies:
- Halima Abubakar: In April 2020, Nollywood actress Halima Abubakar caused a stir online when she announced the birth of her son using a picture of an American nursing mother, which later turned out to be fake. Despite the controversy, Halima has kept tight-lipped about the father of her child.
- TBoss: Former BBNaija star TBoss is known for her blunt personality and has managed to keep her personal life private. When she got pregnant in 2019, she successfully kept it under wraps until she announced the birth of her child. Speculation about the paternity of her baby has circulated, but TBoss has chosen not to reveal the father’s identity.
- Ruth Kadiri: Nollywood actress Ruth Kadiri prefers to keep her private life away from the public eye. She got married in a private ceremony before welcoming her first child in 2019 and her second child in 2022. However, she remains secretive about her husband and baby daddy.
- Etinosa Idemudia: When Etinosa Idemudia welcomed her baby in 2020, rumors swirled about the identity of the father. Some even suggested that Nigerian singer MC Galaxy was responsible for the pregnancy. Etinosa neither confirmed nor denied the rumors, choosing to maintain silence about her baby daddy.
- Queen: Former Big Brother Naija housemate Queen surprised many when she announced her pregnancy in January 2023. However, she has not disclosed the identity of her baby daddy, despite some speculation after a leaked conversation with a doctor.
- Eniola Ajao: The Yoruba Nollywood actress revealed in 2022 that she has a 20-year-old son but has not revealed any information about her baby daddy.
These celebrities have opted to keep their baby daddies’ identities hidden for various reasons, likely to avoid further controversies and maintain a level of privacy in their personal lives.
