Actress Yvonne Jegede has opened about the absence of her baby daddy in the life of his son. She referred to him as a deadbeat father.
Yvonne made the revelation during the Mercy Johnson cook show.
She said she doesn’t relate with the father of their son who recently clocked four.
According to her, Olakunle, had only shown up when the boy was five months old after she threatened to remove his name from her son’s name.
She said he came to take pictures and he has been present in their life since then.
She said, “Olakunle and I don’t talk now, he doesn’t call or talk to his son. It is funny how we once had a solid friendship aside from the marriage but I don’t know how it all went off the radar.
“The first time he publicly accepted the son when he was 5 months old was when I gave him an ultimatum that I will remove his surname once the boy turns 5.
“Thankfully, I had given him a compound name, Xavier Jegede Fawole, and I threatened that I will remove the Fawole and leave just the Jegede since I am solely raising him up.
“That was what made him come then to carry the son when he was 5 months old, took photos and posted them on social media and since then no show.”
Olakunle who is the son of late actress, Bukky Ajayi, got married to Yvonne in 2018 but their marriage crashed a year later.
Olakunle also denied the child stating that he is not his. The child however came out looking like the spitting image of the father.
