His Family, Wife, and Children
Richard Mofe-Damijo is a proud father of five, three sons and two daughters; as well as a grandfather. He shares pictures of his family on Instagram and often expresses his gratitude for the close bond he has with his children and grandchildren.
His first and late wife, May Ellen Ezekiel, professionally known as MEE, was a popular magazine editor and TV personality. They were happily married with kids and doing well in their endeavors until MEE’s demise in 1996 – she died during a surgery meant to treat fibroid in a Lagos hospital.
A few years later, RMD got married to his current wife, Jumobi Adegbesan, a journalist that used to work with AIT talk show Lunch Break, but has left the media field to work in the corporate sector. They got married in 2000 and also had kids. The entire family seems to share close bonds judging by the various photos he shares on social media.
According to RMD, his family is the most precious of all of the gifts of his life. We totally agree with the veteran actor.
