Nigerian actors Lateef Adedimeji and Mo Bimpe have taken the internet by storm after a video from their triplets' private naming ceremony surfaced online. The couple, who recently welcomed three boys after years of anticipation, held an intimate event in Lekki, Lagos, attended only by close friends and family members.
Details of the Private Ceremony
The leaked footage, which appeared on Elon Musk's X platform, shows the couple's joy as they introduced their sons to their inner circle. Actor Jide Awobona, a longtime friend of the couple, was spotted at the gathering. During the ceremony, Lateef and Mo Bimpe revealed the names of their triplets: Abdul Ramon Taiwo, Abdul Rahim Kehinde Adetona, and Abdulrokeeb Idowu Adebare.
Reports indicate that a larger public celebration is planned for later this month to mark the milestone more extensively. The couple returned to Nigeria last week with their newborns, and a viral clip showed their warm reception at an airport by family members.
Social Media Reactions
The leaked video sparked excitement online, with fans flooding social media with congratulatory messages. Many praised the couple for keeping the ceremony private and family-oriented. However, some questioned why the video was shared if the event was meant to be private.
Netizens celebrated the couple's blessings, with comments like: "This is actually perfect. I love the simple style" and "I loved the fact that it was a closed naming ceremony." Others offered prayers for the newborns.
Earlier Milestone on Instagram
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that the triplets' Instagram page, created just four days after their birth announcement, had already amassed over 100,000 followers. The page, titled "ETA with Love," features a single post showing Lateef and Mo Bimpe thanking fans for their overwhelming support.
The couple's announcement on May 1, 2026, revealed that they had welcomed three sons. Lateef wrote: "I’ve been quiet… not absent. I was building, protecting, and embracing the greatest blessing of my life. God gave me more than I prayed for a woman who became a mother of three, and three kings to call my own."
Blogger Controversy Recalled
In related news, a blogger who previously made derogatory remarks about Mo Bimpe's fertility faced backlash after the birth announcement. The blogger had claimed the actress had no womb and would need divine intervention to have a child. Following the triplets' arrival, Nigerians flooded the blogger's page with clapbacks.
The couple's journey to parenthood has been widely celebrated, with fans and colleagues in the entertainment industry expressing joy and support.
