Paddy Adenuga, son of Nigerian billionaire and business magnate Mike Adenuga, has taken to social media to announce his engagement, revealing that he has “found love at 41”. The announcement he shared via Instagram on 22 October 2025 features a photograph of his hand intertwined with his partner’s, her finger adorned with a diamond-ring, and the caption: “My faith in God never waivered… and in return He blessed me with YOU. My forever love.” 

Paddy Adenuga’s journey to this moment has been closely followed by the public. At 41 years old, he has long been labelled one of Nigeria’s most eligible bachelors. Reports note that this is his third reported engagement, following previous announcements in 2010 and 2012 which did not lead to marriage. 

In his engagement post, the identity of his fiancée remains private. While her face is not shown and no name is disclosed, the public reaction has been swift – ranging from genuine congratulations to commentary on his timing and past. 

Paddy was born in London and educated in the UK and US. He became involved in his father’s business empire from an early stage, working with Globacom and Conoil as well as founding his own investment vehicle, Pegasus Capital Investments. 

The engagement announcement is being framed as a milestone not only personally but publicly – showing that even those living in the high-profile world of business and privilege are subject to the rhythms of patience, timing and hope. Fans and followers have reacted warmly, with many expressing surprise that the moment came now, and others celebrating the courageous public declaration of love.

Although details of the wedding date, venue and guest list are still under wraps, the post signals that Paddy and his fiancée will soon move into the preparation phase. For now, the spotlight is on celebration, reflection and the future of their love journey.
