Nollywood actress Bimpe Akintunde is celebrating her second daughter, Boluwatifeori, as she turns one.
Sharing a cute video from their birthday shoot, she described her daughter as the best gift she has ever received. According to her, waking up to her beautiful smile each morning brightens their world, and watching her grow fills her heart with hope.
She appreciated her mini-me for doing life with her and prayed for the celebrant.
“Dear Boluwatifeori,
Thank you for doing life with your big sister and me. From the moment we knew you were coming, our hearts have been filled with joy, and since your arrival, that joy has only grown stronger.
You are truly the best gift we have ever received. Waking up to your beautiful smile each morning brightens our world, and watching you grow day by day fills our hearts with hope.
As you journey through life, always remember you are a precious pillar holding our hearts together.
We love you deeply, Abeke”.
In an interview with BBC Yoruba, Akintunde opened up about her crashed marriage, revealing that her second pregnancy wasn’t even three months old when she started experiencing trouble in her marriage. Hinting at what caused their split, Akintunde said she cried during her daughter’s pregnancy.
While counting down to her birthday in May, Akintunde had confirmed her crashed marriage, announcing that she is single. She said before the arrival of her second child, her marriage took a different turn, and it wasn’t easy, but it came with lessons, tears, strength, and growth.
Not allowing her crashed marriage to derail her, she said she quietly rebuilt herself and is now unstoppable.
Last year, Akintunde’s husband, Yousuph Ganiyu, had fueled breakup rumours with his post, about the worst prison in the world being a home without peace and respect. He admonished the public to be careful about whom they marry.
Refreshing your, memory, in June 2023, after years of being single, Bimpe tied the knot to Yousuph O Ganiyu, a man with two wives, at a Nikai ceremony. She disclosed that her husband had been in love with her long before she met him, and she felt so blessed to have met him.
In May of 2025, the movie star had penned a note to him, appreciating him for being so intentional as she noted how many men have said what he said to her but couldn’t stand by their words. Sharing their love story, she stated that she had never met a man like him, and she was blessed the day their path crossed.
