Anticipation builds as Jada Pollock, manager and partner of Grammy-winning Afrobeats sensation Wizkid, prepares for the arrival of their third child. The couple’s relationship, marked by both professional collaboration and personal milestones, continues to captivate fans and industry insiders alike.
As her due date approaches, Pollock recently took to social media to express her excitement. I can’t wait to hold & smell my newborn baby,” she shared on Instagram, giving fans a glimpse into her emotional journey towards motherhood once again.
The announcement sparked a flurry of reactions from followers:
“The feelings are indescribable,” commented user Shanky Dah Great, echoing the sentiments of many well-wishers.
Another supporter, Crown Anike, offered a blessing: “And you shall deliver safely like the Hebrew women.”
However, not all responses were positive. Some critics, like user Jacob Life 2, made disparaging remarks about Pollock’s role in Wizkid’s life.
The relationship between Wizkid, born Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, and Jada Pollock has been a subject of public interest since they first began working together. Pollock, who transitioned from manager to partner, has been instrumental in shaping Wizkid’s international career.
“Their partnership, both personal and professional, has been a driving force behind Wizkid’s global success,” notes music industry analyst Oluwaseun Adebayo. “Pollock’s business acumen combined with Wizkid’s talent has created a formidable team in the music world.”
Despite occasional rumors of relationship troubles, the couple has shared several public moments of celebration:
- Mother’s Day Surprise: Last year, Wizkid stunned Pollock with an extravagant gesture, including a variety of gourmet food items and a luxury Land Rover.
- 40th Birthday Bash: The music star reportedly spent over 10 million naira on an exotic party for Pollock’s 40th birthday, showcasing his commitment to their relationship.
“These grand gestures speak volumes about their bond,” says celebrity relationship expert Dr. Funmi Akintola. In the entertainment industry, where relationships often face unique pressures, Wizkid and Pollock seem to prioritize celebrating each other.
Like many high-profile couples, Wizkid and Pollock have faced their share of public scrutiny. Social media critic Oriretan Honour recently sparked controversy by questioning the couple’s choices:
It’s unwise getting pregnant for the third time without a formal commitment,” Honour stated, referencing traditional Nigerian customs regarding marriage and dowry.
However, many fans have come to the couple’s defense. Lagos-based sociologist Dr. Chidi Okonkwo offers perspective: “Modern relationships, especially in the entertainment industry, often challenge traditional norms. What matters most is the couple’s commitment to each other and their children.”
As Pollock’s due date approaches, the couple seems focused on their growing family. Recent footage shows a visibly pregnant Pollock enjoying time with friends, her baby bump on proud display.
Pregnancy is a beautiful journey, regardless of public opinion,” says Lagos-based obstetrician Dr. Amina Yusuf. What’s important is the health and happiness of the mother and baby.
With Wizkid’s musical career continuing to soar and Pollock managing both family and professional responsibilities, all eyes will be on this power couple as they welcome their newest addition.
As fans eagerly await news of the baby’s arrival, one thing is clear: the Wizkid-Pollock household is entering an exciting new chapter, both personally and professionally.
