Veteran Nigerian actor Patrick Doyle and his wife are mourning the loss of their newborn baby girl shortly after birth.
The couple announced the arrival of their daughter, Omayinuwa Mayen Harriet Doyle, describing her birth on Friday, April 10, 2026, at about 10:40 a.m. as a moment of joy and gratitude.
