Nigerian actress and filmmaker Temi Otedola and her husband, Mr Eazi, are expecting their first child together.
Speaking in an interview with PEOPLE, Temi shared her excitement about starting a family with her husband.
“We are beyond excited to start our family and welcome a little one to our cocoon of two. We’re feeling extremely blessed and grateful for this big next step,” she said.
“After wrapping up three weddings in 2025—a court in Monaco, a traditional Nigerian wedding in Dubai, and a church wedding in Iceland—we wanted to end the year with a two-month, digital-detoxed honeymoon travelling across Korea and Japan. That’s when we found out,” Temi revealed.
The actress also spoke about the joy of sharing the news with family and friends spread across different parts of the world.
“It’s been the greatest news to share. With our family and friends living across every continent, we shared with as many of them as we could in real life, giving them our ultrasound printouts as a surprise,” she said.
Temi added that she was able to share the news with many of her closest friends during her 30th birthday celebration in Mallorca earlier this year.
Although the couple has not revealed the baby’s gender, Temi disclosed that she and Mr Eazi have already begun discussing possible names.
“My husband and I send each other names all the time on WhatsApp. We’ve also asked our parents to give us name ideas, as is Nigerian tradition,” she said.
Reflecting on her pregnancy journey, Temi admitted that the first trimester came with challenges, including fatigue and morning sickness.
She also revealed that pregnancy has encouraged her to slow down and focus more on what truly matters.
“I love how pregnancy forces you to slow down. I’ve been gradually slowing down my routine, prioritizing my goals and looking inward. It’s also a beautiful time to spend with loved ones and celebrate the coming of new life,” she added.
