Popular Nigerian singer Adekunle Kosoko, known professionally as Adekunle Gold, has joyfully announced the birth of his newborn twins with his wife, fellow music star Simi.
A Double Blessing Announced on Social Media
The exciting news was shared by the singer himself on Wednesday, January 7, 2026, via a post on his Snapchat account. Adekunle Gold expressed his overwhelming happiness, revealing that his prayers were answered beyond expectation. "Asked God for another child and He blessed me double," he wrote. He later posted a picture of two tiny baby outfits with the playful caption "Double Trouble," which served as the official confirmation of the twins' arrival.
Clues in the Music Video and Keeping the Secret
This announcement follows the late December 2025 release of the music video for Adekunle Gold's single, "My Love Is The Same." The video teaser and the full release featured a visibly pregnant Simi, sparking widespread speculation among fans about the couple expecting their second child. The intimate video also starred their five-year-old daughter, Adejare “Deja” Kosoko, who was born in May 2020.
The video showcased tender family moments, clearly highlighting Simi's baby bump. While it confirmed the pregnancy, the couple masterfully kept the exciting detail of expecting twins a secret until after the safe delivery. The song itself delves into themes of balancing work, fame, and family, with Adekunle Gold reaffirming his unwavering love and priority for his household.
Celebrations and a History of Sharing Through Art
Following the birth announcement, congratulatory messages flooded social media from fans, colleagues, and industry friends. Many praised Adekunle Gold and Simi for their graceful approach to sharing personal milestones while maintaining a dignified private life.
The couple, who tied the knot in a private ceremony in January 2019, are now parents to three children. Their first child, Deja, was the inspiration behind Simi's massive hit song "Duduke." By choosing to hint at the pregnancy through their art in the "My Love Is The Same" video, they continued their tradition of weaving their life stories into their music, making the announcement uniquely personal.
This development marks another beautiful chapter for one of Nigeria's most beloved musical power couples, seamlessly blending their family joy with their artistic expressions.
