The couple announced the arrival of their daughter through a heartfelt post on social media, featuring Jada standing beside a baby’s cot. While they have shared glimpses into their family life, they have chosen to keep certain details, such as the baby’s name and exact birth date, private.
Wizkid and Jada Pollock’s relationship began in 2012 when they met during her tenure as a manager for American singer Akon.
