Actors Lateef Adedimeji and Mo Bimpe have welcomed triplets close to five years after their marriage.
On Friday, Lateef announced the birth of his triplet sons on Instagram.
Sharing a video of himself and his wife alongside scan results showing three babies and three pairs of socks, he wrote an emotional message describing the children as his world, responsibility and legacy.
“I’ve been quiet… not absent. I was building, protecting, and embracing the greatest blessing of my life. God gave me more than I prayed for — a woman who became a mother of three, and three kings to call my own,” he wrote.
The actor ended the post with the Islamic expression of gratitude, “Alhamdulilah,” but did not disclose the date of birth or the names of the children.
The announcement drew congratulations from fans and colleagues.
Fellow actress Mercy Aigbe wrote, “To God be the glory. Congratulations.”
OloyedeJuliana also wrote, “God is Good!!! God is Good!!!God is Good!!! Watching this again, I’m in tears, congratulations my fam, so happy for you two. Can’t believe I’m an Auntie”.
Also reacting, Omowumi Dada wrote, “Such GOODNEWS for the month of May. THANK YOU JESUSSSSSSSSSSSSS. Congratulations fam”.
The news comes after weeks of speculation on social media about the couple welcoming multiple babies, which they had not confirmed at the time.
It also follows concerns from fans over their reduced online presence and past trolling directed at Mo Bimpe over not having children.
Lateef and Mo Bimpe, both prominent figures in the film industry, got married on December 18, 2021, in Ekiti State, with a subsequent Islamic ceremony held in Lagos.
