Veekee James and Femi Atere are entering a new chapter—quietly, tenderly, and on their own terms.
The fashion designer and her husband announced they are expecting their first child with a sun-drenched video that feels less like an announcement and more like an intimate moment shared by accident. There is no grand staging, no excess. Just the couple walking hand in hand through an open outdoor space, unhurried and fully present. At one point, Femi gently lifts a strip of ultrasound photos—an understated gesture that says everything without needing explanation.
Veekee’s look mirrors the mood of the moment. She wears a flowing, body-skimming maxi dress in a soft neutral tone, its silhouette gently tracing her growing bump as it moves with her stride. Statement gold spiral earrings add a sculptural note, while brown suede boots ground the look in quiet elegance. Femi complements her effortlessly in a relaxed linen set—neutral, breathable, and intentionally unfussy.
The announcement carries added weight when viewed in the context of their love story, one that unfolded publicly and joyfully just two years ago. In February 2024, the couple marked their union with a series of celebrations: a legal ceremony on the 1st, a traditional wedding in Akwa Ibom on the 8th, and a white wedding in Lagos on the 10th. Their #LoveUnbeaten24 festivities quickly became cultural moments—shared, celebrated, and remembered.
This time, however, the couple chose softness over spectacle. Alongside the video, they offered a simple message:
“And two shall become 3. Indeed this is what only GOD can do.”
No theatrics. No overstatement. Just love, evolving.
