What Led to the Separation of Imade’s Parents
Sophia and Davido met in 2013, and a year later, they welcomed their daughter Imade. However, Imade’s conception and birth were surrounded by a couple of controversies. According to Davido, Sophia came to his house in Lekki and claimed that her father is late and her mother stays in Abuja, hence, she had nowhere to stay in Lagos.
Out of his good heart, Davido accommodated her but Sophia rather took advantage of his youthful age. As of then, Davido was only 21 while Sophia was in her late 20s. Sophia ended up pregnant after they eventually had a fling.
After she gave birth, Davido denied the paternity of the child and subsequently requested a DNA test. It was only after a DNA test confirmed that Imade is his blood that he took up responsibilities. Today, Imade is Davido’s favorite child.
Immediately after the birth of Imade, Davido brought to an abrupt end his relationship with Sophia. Seven months later, drama ensued after Davido forcefully took custody of Imade in a legal battle that involved Sophia’s uncle Dele Momodu.
Sophia and Davido openly engaged in confrontations on a number of occasions. It went to the extent that Davido’s family conspired to take the child out of the country without her mother’s consent. However, they did not succeed as they got restricted at the airport by the authorities on child trafficking.
Though they are no longer dating, Sophia and Davido eventually settled their differences as they co-parent their daughter. While Sophia finally got their daughter’s custody, Davido does his best as a father by visiting them at intervals. Sophia reportedly lives in Davido’s mansion in Banana Island.
