US-based Ghanaian comedian and actor, Michael Blackson, has stirred controversy after announcing that he welcomed a child with his female friend—just two months after his fiancée, Rada Darling, gave birth to his first son.
The comedian made the revelation in a lengthy Instagram post on Monday, where he expressed mixed emotions over the development and apologised to his fiancée for the pain the news might cause.
“Good day to all my family, friends and fans. The last few months God has blessed me, but in blessing me came a lot of pain,” he wrote.
“Two months after Rada gave birth to little Mikey, a female friend I’ve known for over five years also gave birth to my son, King Kweku Blackson. My two boys have brought so much joy to my life but also caused me to lose my fiancée, Rada.”
Blackson revealed that his first son, Mikey, was born on June 17, 2025, while his second, Kweku, arrived on August 6, 2025. He added that even his family only recently found out about the situation.
“My older twin boys, who are now 18, didn’t find out till last night, and my own mom doesn’t even know,” he disclosed.
The comedian, known for his outspoken humour, said he was grateful for his two new sons but admitted his mistake had cost him dearly.
“I love kids and I want to thank God for bringing me two more healthy boys. My apologies to Rada and I hope she forgives me for the pain I’ve brought to her,” he said.
Promising to be a devoted father, Blackson jokingly added that he plans to avoid following in the footsteps of celebrities with large families.
“I’m going to be the best loving father in the world. To avoid turning into Nick Cannon or Elon Musk, I’m only dating women that ran out of period or had a hysterectomy,” he added.
The announcement has since sparked mixed reactions online, with many fans sympathising with Rada while others praised the comedian for owning up to his actions.
