Nigerian singer Bankole Wellington, widely known as Banky W, and his actress wife, Adesua Etomi, have announced they are expecting their second child.
The couple shared Adesua’s beautiful maternity photos in a heartfelt Instagram post, expressing their gratitude for their growing family. They reflected on their journey, saying, “First, we had each other, then we had your brother, then God sent you, and now we have everything.”
Banky W recently shared that he and his family relocated overseas, where he is pursuing a Master’s degree in Policy Management at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. He emphasized that this new chapter is for his family, faith, and finding purpose, and he called for prayers from their fans.
The couple has weathered rumors of infidelity in the past, with a blogger alleging that Banky W had cheated on Adesua and even fathered a child with another woman. However, the singer firmly addressed these allegations during a church service, stating that “the devil is a liar” and reaffirming his love for Adesua, whom he often keeps on the phone for hours. In February, Banky made a heartfelt promise to Adesua, expressing that he would choose her over and over again, likening their relationship to winning the lottery.
Their announcement of expecting their second child has been met with overwhelming support from fans and fellow celebrities alike. Many took to the comments section to share their congratulatory messages, including notable personalities like Ebuka Uchendu, Shaffy Bello, and Toyin Abraham, who celebrated the couple’s joy.
Adesua’s close friend and co-star Bimbo Ademoye also expressed her excitement, referring to the upcoming baby as “another obsession” and playfully suggesting a name starting with “Z.”
In addition to celebrating their second child, the couple’s bond has remained strong despite past challenges. Adesua and Banky W are part of a vibrant Nollywood community, which has witnessed numerous celebrations this year, including weddings and the arrival of new babies. As they look forward to expanding their family, fans can’t wait to see what the future holds for this beloved couple.
