Toke Makinwa, the celebrated media personality and influencer, has revealed that she is expecting her very first child.
The news came through a heartfelt Instagram post on Wednesday, where she appeared in a flowery dress, gently showcasing her baby bump. Her message reflected excitement, gratitude, and spiritual reflection, as she described her pregnancy as “the biggest project of my life.”
Makinwa also spoke about the journey that led to this moment. She explained that the pregnancy came after a period of personal reflection and preparation, emphasizing the importance of trusting in God’s timing.
In her caption, she shared: “The biggest project of my life, the highest calling ever! 2025, What a difference a year can make. That was my prophetic declaration entering into the new year.
“Dear God, You did this one, you have completely changed my life. You opened this door that nobody can shut.
“I hope I never get over what you’ve done for me, you stirred the waters and put me in yourself.
“This testimony, the timing…. You make all things beautiful in your time and this is just perfect.
“You are the God that will put his own reputation at risk just to save me, all that time I was convinced you had forgotten me, I didn’t understand why it took so long but now I see it.
“You worked on my heart posture to get me ready for the biggest blessing and the highest calling. You truly are the God of time and chance.
“Listen, God is never late, and God can be trusted. My healed pain will break someone else’s chain and that’s why you’ve put us on here to shine your light. My Season is here.
“I’ve worn so many hats over the years but this one trumps it all and I’m so humbled to have been chosen. You guys have been with me from the start, the girl you met on radio, the brand you’ve supported all these years, this victory is major.
“You get to see me as a Mother, I get to raise my own. Na me be this????? Hallelujah!
“My bug, I cannot wait to meet you, you’ve made me the happiest person on earth baby, thank you.
“Thank you for choosing me to come through life to be the greatest reflection of God’s grace. The answer to my prayers, the while journey has given me life, you’ve blessed me already. My heart is over the moon.”
Makinwa, 40, was previously married to longtime partner Maje Ayida in 2014. Their marriage ended amid allegations of infidelity, with the divorce finalized in 2017. Earlier this year, she mentioned that she “does not mind being a second, third, fourth, or even fifth wife.”
