Expressing her joy and pride, Jegede shared heartwarming photos of her adorable son, commemorating the milestone. In her message, she cherished the five years since Xavier came into her life, expressing that his presence has altered her world so profoundly that she can hardly recollect life before him.

I’m so proud to have you as my child, love you forever and always @xavierjegede.”

Celebrities such as Kate Henshaw, Mercy Aigbe, Moyo Lawal, Junior Pope, and many others showered Xavier with birthday blessings, applauding the young champ on his special day.
In a noteworthy highlight, a few weeks ago, Xavier made his mother immensely proud as he graduated at the age of four. In an emotionally stirring moment, the young graduate was honoured to give a speech at the ceremony, a touching testament to the bond between mother and son.
Jegede, who was previously married to Abounce Olakunle Fawole, voiced her concerns about her ex-husband’s lack of involvement in their son’s life. She revealed his inattentiveness, citing his minimal presence in their child’s life and his absence during key moments. Jegede lamented that Fawole had only seen their son once and did not participate in Xavier’s birthday celebrations.
The post received an outpouring of love and support from fans and followers, reflecting the widespread admiration for Yvonne Jegede’s strength and love as a mother.
