Popular gospel singer Nathaniel Bassey has opened up about the emotional period when his wife endured five miscarriages, including an ectopic pregnancy.
Bassey made the revelation in the early hours of Friday while leading the ongoing edition of his “Hallelujah Challenge.”
The singer explained that even while hosting the online worship sessions, he would immediately go to his wife’s side in the hospital to be with her.
The October 2025 edition of the Hallelujah Challenge runs from October 7 to 31, with nightly sessions beginning at 11:59 pm.
“As men of God and ministers, we have heard a lot of stories. People come to me and say, ‘Pastor Nathaniel, you don’t understand,’” he said.
“My wife will have to forgive me. Do you know there were times during the Hallelujah Challenge when we had a miscarriage, and nobody knew? I would still come online to praise and dance,” he added.
Bassey recalled one particularly difficult period, saying, “A few years ago, she was in the hospital with an ectopic pregnancy. I would leave, lead praise and worship online, then return to the hospital, and the nurses attending to her would tell me, ‘It was powerful tonight.’ Not one, not two, not three or four pregnancies, but five.”
Pastor Nathaniel Bassey has been married to his wife, Sarah, since 2013. The couple has consistently shared their journey of faith, prayer, and resilience with their followers, inspiring many with their steadfast devotion even in challenging times.
