Chris Attoh and his ex-wife Damilola

Chris Attoh and Damilola Adegbite are no longer married but they seem to be cordially co-parenting their son, Brian.

On Thursday, May 17, Adegbite marked the former’s birthday on Instagram with the caption: Happy birthday “Papa Brian”

Attoh returned the favour a day later, celebrating his ex-wife’s birthday with a photo of her on Instagram with the caption: “Happy Birthday MaMa Brian”

The former couple ended their three-year marriage in 2017.

Attoh initially denied reports about the end of his marriage to Adegbite, but confirmed it later during an interview with BellaNaija in September 2017.

“However, since the divorce, we are obviously now reworking things to create a new balance between work, spending time with and raising our son. Dami is a wonderful woman and an amazing mother. Despite our differences, she and I will always be friends. So, more than anything we will find ways to continue to make sure that Brian can still have a balanced upbringing filled with love and support. Both our families have been and are still very supportive in helping us take care of our son Brian when we can’t be there due to work.”

He also spoke about his family helping to take care of their child when he and Adegbite had to work.

“I believe throughout our marriage, it was probably one of the most challenging things we ever did. However, the key word is balance. At times when we both had to work, our parents would be there to hold the fort. God bless family because they were and still are very supportive.”

Chris Attoh and his now ex-wife, Damilola (nee Adegbite) met on the set of Television series Tinsel.

They also played lead roles in the movie Six Hours to Christmas. a production by Shirley Frimpong-Manso’s Sparrow Production.

The couple married in a private event witnessed by family, close friends and associates on February 14, 2014. They are parents to son, Brian.

In the cover story for the June 2015 edition of Glitz Magazine, he told the publication, he is not worried about the exes of his wife because ”at the end of the day I ended up with the prize. Dami is my queen.”
