Linda Ikeji breaks silence over son’s change of surname

Popular Nigerian blogger, Linda Ikeji, has refuted claims of changing the surname of her son, Jayce to her father’s name.

Recall, the billionaire blogger in 2018 confirmed that a socialite, Sholaye Jeremi, is her son’s father.

However, a recent photo of the blogger’s six-year-old son and that of his cousin, Ryan on a vacation stirred speculations amongst fans.

The blogger who intended for a sweet post, was heavily dragged after netizens noticed in her caption that she referred to her son with her last name.

Reacting, Linda via her Instagram on Tuesday night said she never changed her son’s surname as he has always been an Ikeji from birth.

She questioned whether she had the time or patience to change names as she made it known that the decision to retain his surname when he is older lies in his hands.

“Just to be clear. I’ve never ever had to change my son’s surname. He’s been an Ikeji right from when he was born! Where do I have the time or patience to be changing names? Changing it and keeping his surname (Ikeji) will be up to him when he ages.
