Linda Ikeji releases son’s photos, confirms father’s identity

Linda Ikeji and son

Blogger and socialite Linda Ikeji has finally released photos showing the face of her son, three months after his birth.

She also confirmed that oil merchant Sholaye Jeremi with whom she had a secret affair is the baby’s daddy in an Instagram post on Friday morning.

“Meet my son Jayce! And yes, Sholaye Jeremi is his dad. Unfortunately, he and I are a completely closed chapter,” the former model wrote.

The message directs followers to a long post on her blog which addresses controversies surrounding the child’s birth.

Linda gave birth to Jayce in Atlanta, USA on September 17, two days to her 38th birthday.

Maverick blogger Kemi Olunloyo has called the paternity of the child to question, saying Linda faked her pregnancy to lure Jeremi into marrying her.

The baby’s father is believed to be an acquaintance of Nigeria’s minister of state for petroleum resources Ibe Kachikwu and Forte Oil chairman Femi Otedola.
