The surprise arrived during what has already been a memorable season for the couple. In March, shortly after the birth of their second child, Adekunle Gold revealed he had purchased two new Mercedes-Benz cars, nicknamed “Taye” and “Kehinde” — Yoruba names traditionally associated with twins.

Simi’s birthday celebration continued the family’s festive streak. Earlier that day, the singer had posted a reflective birthday message on social media, describing the past year as “a pretty big, long, heavy, blessed year” while expressing appreciation for her faith and loved ones. The emotional surprise from her husband appeared to catch her completely off guard.

This is not the first grand birthday gesture from Adekunle Gold. In April 2023, during Simi’s 35th birthday celebration, he gifted her a customised diamond necklace bearing her name, a moment that also generated widespread attention online.

The pair, who started dating in 2014, kept their relationship private for several years before marrying on January 9, 2019. They marked their seventh wedding anniversary in January 2026 and welcomed their second child two months later. Despite constant public attention and occasional rumours surrounding their marriage, they have continued to present a strong partnership both personally and professionally.

Born Simisola Bolatito Ogunleye, Simi remains one of Nigeria’s most celebrated contemporary pop artists, with a music career spanning more than a decade. As she turns 38, the singer is celebrating several major milestones — a growing family, another year of life, and now, a luxurious new ride.
