“Happy birthday to my omalicha, my achalugo🥰! MSP, the only #CelebrityMechanic😍.
Life is full of UPS and DOWNS and it is only those who know the UPS that can understand the DOWNS. You’ve been my ride or die, the love of my life, my confidant, the woman after my own heart. I love you to the moon any day, any time. Happy birthday, BABYM @iammsp1 🎂😍🥰❤️💝💘💖💞🎈🎊”

The post comes just days after the actor celebrated the first birthday of his son, Chidubem Ikedieze, on July 3, with prayers and blessings.

Aki’s latest celebration also follows a significant change in his personal life. In 2023, the actor confirmed his separation from his former wife, Nneoma Nwaijah, whom he married in 2011.

In July 2024, Chinedu publicly introduced Stephanie as his new partner in a birthday tribute where he described her as his “partner, best friend, and soulmate,” expressing gratitude for her love and presence in his life.

Although the exact timeline between the end of his first marriage and the beginning of his new relationship remains unclear, the actor has previously stated that he prefers to keep his family life private to shield his loved ones from public scrutiny.
