Davido Opens Up About Family Support During His Darkest Moments
Afrobeats superstar David Adeleke, widely known as Davido, recently spoke candidly about the pivotal role his family has played in helping him navigate life’s toughest challenges.
In an interview with Vibe Q, the singer explained that whenever he faces difficulties, his relatives are the first to reach out, offering unwavering encouragement.
He recalled the painful period after the loss of his child, noting that his family stayed by his side until he regained emotional strength.
Davido said his loved ones understand the depth of his sorrow and feel joy whenever they see him perform, because they remember how broken he felt during that time.
Even when he does not initiate contact, his family regularly checks in to ensure he is doing well.
He summed it up by saying: “My family has been the only one helping me through scandals & problems, my brothers & sisters and my father are always the first to call me when something bad happens. When I lost my child they stayed with me till I was fine. They’re always happy seeing me perform because they know how broken I was when I lost my child. Even the days I don’t call them they always call in to check up on me.”
