Davido has opened up about one of the toughest parts of fatherhood, revealing that his children have started asking difficult questions about their family.
Speaking during a BBC interview, the Afrobeats superstar said his two oldest daughters, Imade and Hailey, wanted to know why they have different mothers and why they do not live with him.
As his children grow older, he said those conversations have become impossible to avoid.
My children are coming of age and they have started asking why they have different moms and why don’t they live with me and stuff that kids ask.
He also recalled one moment that caught him off guard when his eldest daughter, Imade, asked about something she had seen on television.
One day, my first daughter walked up to me and said, ‘Daddy, I saw you on TV holding and dancing with two girls.’
Despite those difficult conversations, Davido said he works hard to stay actively involved in all of his children’s lives, even with the demands of his music career.
Davido is a father of six children and has often spoken about how much family means to him.
He shares twins with his wife, Chioma Adeleke, and they also lost their son, Ifeanyi, in 2022. His other children are Imade, Hailey, and Dawson, whom he shares with three different women.
Even with a busy international music career, Davido says he remains committed to being present for each of his children as they grow up.
