Does 2Baba have an eighth baby from an unknown woman?

In 2022, rumors began to circulate that Nigerian musician, 2face, popularly known as 2Baba, was expecting his eighth child with an unknown woman, leading to a lot of speculation and controversy in the media. While the singer initially kept quiet about the rumors, he eventually released a statement addressing the issue and requesting privacy for himself and his family.

2Baba already had seven children with three different women at the time, which added to the controversy surrounding the news of a potential "eighth child". Many fans and critics alike were quick to criticize the musician for having so many children with multiple women, which they felt was inappropriate given his status as a public figure and role model.

The reports of impregnating another woman were quickly denied by 2Baba's management company, Now Muzik. They released a statement refuting the allegations stating that the reports were "totally false and malicious". The singer's management team urged media platforms and members of the public to disregard the allegations as they lacked any evidence or truth. They went on to describe the rumors as "fake news" and reiterated that 2face was not expecting a child with another woman. The denial of the allegations came as a relief to many of the musician's fans who were concerned about the effect that another child could have on his personal life and his career.
