Nollywood actress announced the arrival of her grandson, Ayomide Mbakala, on August 24, 2025, via Instagram.

The announcement, which coincided with Funke Akindele’s 48th birthday, included a touching delivery room photo of Iyabo, her daughter Priscilla Ojo, and the newborn.

While many fans flooded the comment section with congratulations, some observers were less impressed by the choice of photo.

A Twitter user known as Lush The Perfume Plug voiced concern that the image was taken while Priscilla was still undergoing post-delivery stitching.

“Never seen where they’d post Baby Arrival pictures when the doctors aren’t even done stitching the mum up. God Abeg,” she tweeted.

The comment quickly gained traction, with others joining the conversation about privacy, timing, and decorum in birth announcements shared on social media.

Some defended Iyabo Ojo, arguing that the photo celebrated a powerful moment of motherhood and family unity.

Others felt it was too raw and intimate, especially given Priscilla’s visibly vulnerable state in the image.
