Sophia Momodu, the socialite and fashionista who is the first baby mama of Nigerian music star Davido, celebrated her 39th birthday on Tuesday, June 9, 2026. To mark the occasion, she shared stunning photos on social media and gave an introspective interview to fashion magazine MarieClaire, reflecting on her journey through life and motherhood.
Reflections on Her 20s and Growing Wiser
In the interview, Sophia opened up about how she has changed over the years. She admitted that in her 20s, she was impulsive and stubborn. "When I was in my 20s, I was a hothead. You couldn't tell me anything. It was my way or the highway," she said. However, she noted that age has brought calmness and wisdom. "The older I get, the wiser I feel. And because of this, I'm calmer," she added.
Motherhood and Self-Love
Sophia, who has one daughter, Imade Adeleke, with Davido, also spoke about how motherhood transformed her perspective. She explained that seeing herself through her daughter's eyes taught her to prioritize self-love. "When I first had my daughter, I started to see myself in her eyes. I started to see how she sees me. She taught me to love myself even harder — because I'm like, this person actually thinks that I'm the best person in the whole world and comes to me for every single thing," she shared.
Birthday Messages from Fans and Supporters
Fans and followers flooded Sophia's social media pages with warm birthday wishes. Many praised her beauty, style, and strength. Comments included: "Happy birthday SOFIRE, keep shining, keep soaring and staying winning," and "Happy 39th birthday Big Sophie Beauty with brain." Others wrote: "Happy birthday Mother hen.
