Ghanaian actor-turned-politician John Dumelo and his wife, Gifty Mawunya Nkornu-Dumelo, have warmed hearts after revealing that they quietly welcomed their second child, a baby boy, in 2023.
The couple made the revelation on Instagram on Tuesday while celebrating their son, Demi Jacob Kudzo Dumelo, who just turned one year old.
Gifty Dumelo shared stunning family portraits, including never-before-seen maternity photos, along with an emotional message to her son. In her heartfelt tribute, she wrote:
“A year ago God blessed us with you, Demi Jacob Kudzo Dumelo. Our campaign baby, our smart bubbly king, our dimpled cheeks baby, our peaceful baby… Your arrival has brought us immense joy, happiness and laughter. Our prayer for you is that your name Demi, which means ‘deliver us’ in the Ewe language, will continue to serve its purpose in Jesus’ name. Happiest first birthday. We love you, son.”
John Dumelo also joined in the celebration by posting adorable photos of his little boy and showering him with love on his milestone day.
The announcement took many fans by surprise, as the couple had managed to keep the pregnancy and birth private for over a year. The revelation has since attracted waves of congratulatory messages from fans and fellow celebrities, who filled the comment section with warm wishes.
This marks the second child for the couple, who tied the knot in 2019. Their first child, John Dumelo Jnr., was born the same year.
With this heartwarming revelation, the Dumelos once again captured the admiration of their fans, who continue to celebrate with them on their new journey of parenthood.
