Veteran Nollywood actor and broadcaster Patrick Doyle has announced the birth of a baby girl with his new wife, Funmilayo, expressing gratitude to God over the latest addition to his family.
Doyle made the announcement in a Facebook post on Saturday, revealing that the child, named Omayinuwa Mayen Harriet Doyle, was born on Friday at about 10:40 am.
“To the glory of God, I announce the precious addition of a female child to my quiver.
“OMAYINUWA MAYEN HARRIET DOYLE was born yesterday at about 10:40 AM. Mother and child are doing well and daddy is overwhelmed with joy and gratitude to God Almighty,” he wrote.
The announcement has since attracted congratulatory messages from fans and colleagues in the entertainment industry.
In a separate development, it would be recalled that Doyle’s former wife, Ireti Doyle, confirmed their divorce in 2023 during an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo on WithChude, where she said:
“We are officially divorced,” she said.
The former couple got married in 2004 and share children together. Their separation had long been the subject of speculation before it was publicly confirmed, with Ireti Doyle later explaining that she initially chose to keep details private as a family matter.
