Banky W, Adesua Etomi welcome second child in US
Nigerian R&B singer and entrepreneur Bankole Wellington, known as Banky W, and his wife, actress Adesua Etomi, have joyfully announced the birth of their second child, a baby boy.
Banky W shared the exciting news on Instagram with a heartfelt video that showcases his commitment to family life following the arrival of their new addition.
In the video, he is seen taking on various household roles, including cooking, cleaning, and supporting Adesua.
Reflecting on his dedication to family, he stated, “More importantly than that, I am a husband and a father. We just had our second child, an amazing young boy.”
Since the baby’s arrival, Banky W has embraced numerous responsibilities, describing himself as a “chef, housekeeper, nanny, homework teacher, masseuse, and more,” all in the spirit of nurturing a supportive partnership.
His post highlighted his commitment to gender equality, emphasizing, “Supporting women’s economic power means doing my part in our home and community.”
He elaborated, “Partnership is 100-100, not 50-50. That means that in this season, I’ve been a chef, housekeeper, nanny, homework teacher, masseuse, and more, all as part of my duty as a supportive husband and present father of two. Honestly, I couldn’t be happier.” He reiterated, “Supporting women’s economic power means doing my part in our home.”
Adesua had previously announced her pregnancy on October 14, and the couple now celebrates becoming a family of four.
Banky W and Adesua, who tied the knot in South Africa in November 2017, welcomed their first child, Hazaiah Olusegun Wellington, in 2021.
