Judith Kanayo-Opara, the Nigerian gospel singer popularly known as Judikay, has shared the experience of suffering six miscarriages, including one as recent as February 2025.
In a video posted on her Instagram page, the singer opened
up about the physical and emotional toll of her most recent loss, which
occurred after she had passed the three-month mark of her pregnancy.
Recounting the events, Judikay described how what began as
mild cramps and spotting quickly escalated into a miscarriage.
“In February 2025, I experienced a pain that almost crushed
me. I was pregnant for well over three months. One of these days, I was going
about my day when I started to experience cramps,” she said.
“I said, ‘Oh, okay, it was one of those things.’ And then
trickles of blood, and I said, ‘Oh, spotting’. If you are a woman who has been
pregnant before, you will know what spotting refers to.
“And then I had the urge to use the washroom. And what I
thought should be urine was blood. It did not stop. It kept flowing. And I was
devastated because I understood what
that meant automatically.
“This baby that I lost, that has gone past three months,
mark the sixth one.”
The singer said she underwent a dilation and curettage
(D&C) procedure to manage the miscarriage.
Judikay said that although she initially appeared composed,
she confessed that the nights brought an unbearable weight of grief.
“I was rushed to the hospital, and they did a D&C on me
because it was a missed miscarriage,” she added.
“And when I returned home, I thought I was okay. I had cried
and shouted whilst they broke the baby and brought the pieces.
“Everyone would ask, and I would say God gets the glory.
“But then in the silence of the night, I would experience a
pain that I could not express. I would wail and cry and say, ‘Jesus, where are
you?”
Judikay, known for hit worship songs like ‘More Than Gold’
and ‘Songs of Angel: Ndimozi Binigwe,’ married Anselem Opara in 2020. The
couple welcomed their first child in 2022.
