BEVERLY HILLS, April 05, (THEWILL) – Popular singer, Banky W, and wife, Adesua Etomi, have both talked about how she suffered a miscarriage and lost a set of twins.
The celebrity couple disclosed this during an episode of The Waterbrook series.
Adesua revealed: “So we got pregnant and we got pregnant with twins. And we had gone for the scans, we had seen the heartbeats. At this point very few people knew what happened.
“Every report that you have heard was a lie because nobody knew what happened. So during a routine checkup, we went back to the hospital to have a scan and I just saw the doctor’s face…you know when something is wrong, sometimes you can tell.
“She was scanning and scanning and I was like what’s wrong and she said, ‘Oh, nothing,’ and I looked at the nurse’s face and asked what’s wrong and she said, ‘Adesua, I’m looking for the heartbeats;’ and I said ‘for the two of them?'”
According to the film star, she collapsed after she returned home from the hospital.
She recalled: “So I went home and I remember Banky not being (around) at that time and I remember collapsing on the floor wailing. Wailing is different from crying, it’s like a deep groan in your chest. I’m sharing because many women go through this and nobody talks about it because it is almost like a thing of shame for whatever reason and I don’t know why.
“So we said we were going to pray over the weekend and go back for the scan on Tuesday or Monday can’t remember now, hoping that God would do something.”
Also, Banky W narrated that the heartbeats of the twins not only stopped but started shrinking and how they eventually lost the babies.
She said: “Monday or Tuesday came and we went for the scan, not only did we not see heartbeats but the embryos were shrinking, they were decaying. When we found out we were losing them and we needed to do an evacuation, it was a very emotional time for her.”
The couple disclosed that they planned on adopting or even surrogacy at some point but the family Pastor of the actress told them to give it six months.
Adesua discovered later that she was pregnant a few months later and all she could say was ”Olubankole, God has done it!”
THEWILL writes that the couple welcomed their first child in early 2021.
