John Boyega, the Nigerian-British actor, and Lashontae Heckard, his wife, have welcomed their first child together.
In a recent Instagram post, the 34-year-old actor shared
loved-up photos of himself and his wife, with her baby bump visible, along with
another image of him cradling the baby.
He said their baby had been born “some time ago,” thanking
everyone who had sent them well wishes.
He also revealed that his sister was expecting a baby soon
and asked people to wish her well.
“Our bundle of joy has been with us for some time now but
thank you for all the well wishes. Also my sister is about to pop! Wish her
well too. Back to feeding this big baby,” he wrote.
The actor, in a recent interview with The Guardian, revealed
that he had been married to Heckard, who is reported to be 48 years, for almost
two years.
Boyega said he and Heckard tied the knot in a “small
ceremony” but added that they would love to have a traditional Nigerian wedding
in the future.
“I would love to have a wedding celebration. We both like
the idea of celebrating something established, rather than celebrating the
entry. And by then, we’ll have to shut Nigeria down,” he said.
He also disclosed that he has a stepson, adding that his
life is “completely, completely fulfilled in terms of family”.
Heckard is an actress and model who is best known for her
appearances on the BET series ‘The Game,’ a show starring Tia Mowry and Hosea
Chanchez which is about a group of women who all have relationships with
professional football players.
