Nigerian music legend Innocent Idibia, known globally as 2Baba, and his wife, Edo State lawmaker Natasha Osawaru, are celebrating the arrival of their first child together. The couple welcomed a baby boy, announcing the happy news to their fans and followers.
A Joyful Announcement on Social Media
Natasha Osawaru shared the news of the birth on her official Facebook page on Sunday, November 23, 2025. She posted a heartfelt message, writing, "Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Idibia. We joyfully welcome our bouncy baby boy into the world." She expressed hopes that their new son would bring endless laughter, happiness, and blessings to their family, marking the start of a "wonderful new chapter."
A New Chapter After a Public Courtship
This birth represents a significant milestone for a relationship that has captivated the Nigerian public since it began in early 2025. The couple made their first public appearances together before solidifying their union with a traditional wedding ceremony in Benin City in July 2025. The event was a vibrant display of Edo culture, with 2Baba dressed in a white native outfit with grey embroidery and coral beads, while Osawaru wore a stunning red dress and the traditional Edo okuku crown.
Their union came just six months after 2Baba's highly publicized separation from his former wife, actress Annie Macaulay. The singer addressed the end of his two-decade relationship with Annie, calling her an "amazing" woman but stating that no one should be forced to stay in a marriage that isn't working. He emphasized that his new relationship with Natasha was not the cause of the split.
Overcoming Scrutiny and Looking Forward
The couple's journey was not without its challenges, including public scrutiny and a viral moment involving 2Baba's mother. Despite this, they have consistently presented a united front. In September, Osawaru penned an emotional tribute for 2Baba's 50th birthday, calling him the "love of my life" and celebrating the joy he brought her.
With the arrival of their son, 2Baba and Natasha Osawaru have firmly turned the page to this new phase of their lives. The announcement has been met with an outpouring of congratulatory messages from fans and well-wishers across social media, all celebrating the couple's new beginning and the newest member of the Idibia family.
