Veteran Nollywood actor and broadcaster, Patrick Doyle, and his wife, Funmilayo Doyle, have lost their newborn daughter just hours after her birth.
Doyle announced the development in a Facebook post on Sunday evening, revealing that the baby, Omayinuwa Mayen Harriet Doyle, died barely a day after she was born.
“Omayinuwa visited us briefly at about 10:40 am on Friday, 10th of April, and returned to heaven on Saturday, 11th of April, at about 4:15 pm. Her stay was short, but it brought great joy with it. We would have wished for a longer stay, but alas, heaven thought otherwise,” he wrote.

The actor had earlier announced the birth of the child, describing her as “the precious addition” to his family and expressing gratitude to God.
