Nigerian-born Yoruba film actress, film producer and stage performer, Ronke Odusanya popularly called “Flakky Ididowo” is now a mom!
The actress, in the early hours of today August 19, welcomed her first child with her lover she has concealed from public space.
Sharing the exciting news of her baby’s arrival with her over 1.2m followers on Instagram, the the 46-year-old actress expressed gratitude to God for seeing her through the period of pregnancy. The new mom shared first pictures of the baby while she was still on the delivery bed at the hospital and wrote:
“My joy knows no limit .. Its boundless … Appreciation to God for the process and seeing me through it all … Birthing a new being is a whole new level and experience for me … my love We welcome our child ….. oluwa modupe.”
This is coming four days after she congratulated fellow actors, Toyin Abraham and Kolawole Ajeyemi who recently welcomed a baby boy. Ronke wrote:
“The joy I have been feeling seen I heard the news is immeasurable @toyin_abraham welcome to mother darling……. may you always be happy, God’s blessings will never depart from your new family……. his grace, riches and protection will always be in your home @kolawoleajeyemi… thank you!!! …… Yes!!! I’m a proud sexy grand godmother.”
Ronke’s baby daddy popularly known as Jago, is just as excited as the actress is, on the arrival of their baby girl. He wrote on Instagram moments ago:
”I feel I am lucky. I am grateful for this life that God has given me. I am happy, as I am getting to do work that I want to do and enjoy doing it. I had lost my way for some time, so I need to do things that I am happy with ??welcome.”
You will recall that last week, the chubby actress talked about him in an interview with LIB. On meeting her new man, she said:
”We met no ni.. (All laugh). You people love gist sha.. The good thing about him is that he is not married. Which also means he has never divorced but he has a child.. A son who is 5 years old now. I met him and we became partners. If we decide to do anything further, you guys will hear about it. We have been out on two or more occasions.
You know, It still amazes me on how we became partners because when I met him, I knew he was popular amongst girls. He is the outgoing type so he has a good history with girls around Magodo and Ketu (Laugh). Infact, some girls have called me to ask why I should be with someone like that.
I keep wondering how its their business. Why didn’t they ask why he ended up being with me? What makes them think I’m better than him? Is it because he is an extrovert or been with a lot of girls?
Some even called me to say he is too loud, he can be lousy… but does that make me a better person than him? Have you checked his inward expression and attributes? I remember one time like that that I was dating a popular person, lots of people were like why are you dating this guy? He isn’t a porch person in quote.
But honestly, I dated that person because he was such a good person to me and he took care of me. There were things I did and he forgave me. Going back to my new partner, I have done lots of things in the past that he heard and forgave me going forward. So the fact that I’m quiet and more reserved or you’ll say private doesn’t make me better than him.
In fact, another person said, Ki ni mo wa de be .. Like how did I get involved with him? Noo.. Like I’m meant to snatch someone’s husband right. So people should take a chill pill … relationship isn’t easy but I’m happy with the man in my life now.
