Nollywood actor Lateef Adedimeji has finally reacted to the viral artificial intelligence-generated images circulating online which falsely portrayed his family’s private naming ceremony for his newborn children.
The photos, which surfaced across several social media platforms, showed what appeared to be the actor and his wife, actress Mo Bimpe, celebrating with triplets during a lavish naming ceremony.
The realistic-looking images quickly spread online, leading many fans and social media users to believe they were authentic moments from the couple’s family celebration.
The viral pictures generated excitement among admirers of the celebrity couple, with many flooding comment sections with congratulatory messages and prayers for the newborns.
However, the images soon sparked questions about their authenticity, prompting Lateef to personally address the matter.
Taking to his social media pages, the actor thanked fans for their love, support and warm wishes but made it clear that the photos making rounds were not real. He clarified that the viral images were artificially generated and had no connection to his family.
Lateef appreciated the concern and prayers from supporters while urging the public not to believe every image seen online, especially with the growing use of AI technology to create realistic but misleading content.
He also assured fans that he would return online soon and continue sharing genuine updates with them.
The clarification comes shortly after reports emerged that the actor and his wife welcomed their children and held a private naming ceremony away from public attention.
The couple reportedly chose to keep the occasion intimate, celebrating with close family members and selected friends rather than turning it into a public event.
Lateef and Mo Bimpe have remained one of Nollywood’s most admired celebrity couples since their marriage, often attracting public attention with their relationship milestones and career achievements.
Their fans have consistently shown interest in their personal lives, making the false AI-generated images spread even faster.
The incident has once again highlighted concerns surrounding the misuse of artificial intelligence on social media, where manipulated visuals can easily mislead the public.
As AI tools continue to advance, celebrities and public figures are increasingly being forced to clarify false narratives created through digital manipulation.
Many fans have since praised Lateef for quickly clearing the air and handling the situation calmly. Others have called for more caution among social media users when sharing unverified content online.
Despite the confusion caused by the viral photos, supporters continue to celebrate the couple’s new chapter and have expressed happiness over the arrival of their children. For now, fans are eagerly waiting for authentic family moments to be shared directly by the couple whenever they choose to do so.
