“I was nervous about becoming a husband and a father, but you made it easy” – Banky W pens heartfelt note to Adesua Etomi on their 7th wedding anniversary, shares adorable video of their journey

Nigerian singer Bankole Wellington, better known as Banky W, and his wife, Adesua Etomi, are celebrating their 7th wedding anniversary.

Taking to his Instagram page to share an adorable video of him and his wife over the years, Banky appreciated Adesua for seeing who he was before he became him. He appreciated her for choosing him for 7 years and counting and for being his heart and building their home and family.

He revealed that he was a bit nervous about becoming a husband and father, but Adesua made it easy, and now, he is a better man. She chose him and a greater man because she loves him. He stated that though they don’t have it all figured out, they don’t need to, as they have each other and Christ at their center.

“Thank you for seeing who I was before I became him.
Thank you for choosing me, 7 years and counting.
Thank you for being my heart and building our home and family,
I love you now, always, and eternally.

Happy 7th Anniversary, baby.
Truly, madly, deeply.

PS: The first time I heard this song, I thought of you and the world we are creating for our boys. I was always a bit nervous about becoming a husband and a father, but you make it easy. I’m a better man because you chose me. I’m a greater man because you love me. We don’t have it all figured out, but we don’t need to – because we’ve got each other and we’ve got Christ at the center. In Jesus’ name, nothing will ever break our 3-fold cord. Here’s to the next 43 years or more, until eternity and beyond”.

Adesua also penned a note to her husband, affirming her love for him.

“Dear Banky,

THE 7-YEAR LETTER.

I Love You. Truly, madly, deeply!

Susu (shakespeare) Etomi-Wellington”.

Kemi Filani reported in October that Adesua and Banky W had announced that they were expecting their second child. In a joint Instagram post, the couple shared Adesua’s maternity photos as they noted how they first had each other, then they had a son, and now are expecting another.

The singer later revealed that he and Adesua had welcomed their second child, a baby boy. He made this known as he shared a video of him cooking and taking care of his family. Banky stated that marriage is 100-100 and not 50-50, as he revealed that he has been a chef, housekeeper, homework teacher, masseuse, and more since his wife gave birth.

Adesua Etomi and Banky got married in 2017. The couple revealed that they lost twins to a miscarriage and in 2021, they welcomed their first child, a baby boy.

Last year, the couple’s marriage was rocked with infidelity rumors as a blogger alleged that Banky W had cheated on Adesua and also impregnated another woman believed to be Niyola who was formerly signed to his record label. The gossip blog claimed that Banky had asked her to abort the pregnancy but she refused to, especially as she had previously aborted two pregnancies for him.

Speaking out, Banky W while addressing the congregation during a church service, stated that the devil is a liar, as God is in control, as he noted how there was an attack on him. He appreciated his wife, who he said he would forever remain grateful to God for because he often keeps her on the phone for hours.
