Nollywood actress Mo Bimpe has revealed that some people deliberately left her out of children’s parties, baby showers and naming ceremonies because she did not have a child at the time.
The actress shared the painful experience after attending the first birthday party of Rakeem Mkambala, the son of actress Priscilla Ojo and Tanzanian singer Juma Jux.
Bimpe said she became emotional after returning from the celebration because the event reminded her of a difficult period in her life.
Mo Bimpe recalls painful experience.
The actress said she was often left out of celebrations involving children, even when the people involved were close to her.
“There was a time when I wasn’t invited to baby showers, naming ceremonies, children’s birthdays, or anything related to kids. Sometimes, these were people I knew personally.
People I laughed with, worked with, and genuinely cared about. I remember wondering what I had done wrong.
Later, I found out that some people intentionally left me out because I didn’t have children. At the time, it hurt deeply.”
Bimpe said the experience was harder because she was already dealing with the emotional weight of trying to conceive.
“I wanted to celebrate with people. I wanted to share in their joy.
What many people don’t realise is that struggling to conceive is already hard enough. The waiting is hard. The questions are hard. The insults are hard. The silent prayers are hard.”
Bimpe appeals for compassion.
The actress urged people to show more compassion to women who are yet to have children.
“Please don’t make it harder by excluding people.
A woman without a child is not less deserving of love, friendship, inclusion, or celebration.”
Bimpe’s revelation comes months after she and her husband, actor Lateef Adedimeji, welcomed triplet boys after years of marriage.
The couple announced the arrival of their three sons in May 2026. Lateef described their birth as an answer to prayers after a difficult period marked by public scrutiny and hurtful comments.
Since becoming a mother, Bimpe has described motherhood as a major transformation in her life.
