Actor Doyin Hassan welcomes baby girl after 24 years

After 24 years of “toils and struggles,” actor Doyin Hassan and his new wife have welcomed a baby daughter.

On Monday, the Mount Zion actor shared the wonderful news on Instagram, along with photographs of himself, his wife, and their kid at the child’s dedication in church.

The infant arrived after 24 years of toil and strife, according to the 54-year-old.

He wrote: “God is Faithful!!!! After 24 years of toils and struggles. He came forth at last!!!! Our beautiful baby girl is a great testimony of God’s faithfulness.”

Celebrities like Foluke Daramola, Biola Bayo, Dele Odulwe, Damilola Olatunji and Helen Paul congratulated him in the comment section of the post.

The actor’s first wife Bolanle died in December 2020.

Bolanle acted in several Christian movies, especially in Mount Zion movies where she came to the limelight.

Speaking about his wife’s death in an Instagram live session in June 2021, Doyin who is popular for his role in the Mount Zion film Captives of the Mighty said: “I am surviving. My wife was everything to me. She was an encourager. My wife passed on unexpectedly because she was not sick. We had been married for almost 10 years before her demise. If one has a spouse that is supportive of one’s vision and the person is very experienced in that field, it makes things a lot better. I am not talking about a wife that is submissive and supportive. I am talking about getting married to a forerunner in the field that one operates.

“If I was feeling lazy and could not pray, she was the one that usually pushed me. That is the kind of spouse everybody should aspire to have. When my wife died, I did not know I could survive it because I feel her presence all the time. When I think about her or remember the things she used to say, I begin to laugh alone. I had heard so many things about her before we got married but when we tied the knots, I realised that she was even holier than what I saw on the peripheral level.”
