[Vanguard] Still basking on the euphoria of the birth of their triplet sons, Nollywood couple, Lateef Adedimeji and Mo Bimpe, on Wednesday, August 12, 2026, hosted a star studded thanksgiving celebration to mark the birth of their triplet sons.

Nollywood actors Lateef Adedimeji and Mo Bimpe celebrated the birth of their triplet sons with a star-studded thanksgiving event on August 12, 2026. The couple, who had endured years of childlessness and faced stigma and mockery, welcomed three sons into the world after months of anticipation. To mark the occasion, they hosted an elegantly decorated gathering at their residence in Lekki, Lagos, featuring an impressive venue adorned with a portrait backdrop and a food and drinks display station.

Notable guests included Chief (Mrs.) Shade Okoya, Nollywood legends Yinka Quadri, Madam Saje, and Olaiya Igwe, among others. Adedimeji donned a rich burgundy Agbada, while Mo Bimpe wore an off-the-shoulder red gown with colorful floral appliques and an oversized side bow. The couple expressed gratitude for their blessings and reflected on the challenges they faced before the arrival of their triplet sons, holding a private naming ceremony in May 2026.
