Well-known blogger Linda Ikeji has explained why her son Jayce will always go by her last name rather than his father's. Ikeji stated that the six-year-old boy's surname has always been the same since his birth and that he is free to alter it when he reaches adulthood. The blogger announced this on Tuesday while praising Ryan Kanu, the cousin of her children, whom she called “the best little human ever!” on her Instagram account. Ryan Kanu and Jayce Ikeji win Disney/Marvel Paris. As brothers, they were raised together and were great friends. They are inseparable when they can avoid it and have an amazing love for one another!

Ikeji responded by saying, "Just to be clear. My son's last name has never once needed to be changed. Since his birth, he has been an Ikeji! Where am I going to get the time and patience to change my name? Food for my junior colleagues. Changing or keeping his surname (Ikeji) will be up to him when he reaches adulthood. In 2018, Ikeji gave birth to Ryan in a hospital in Atlanta, Georgia, in the United States. Despite rumors to the contrary, Sholaye Jeremi, an oil magnate, is her son's father. Additionally, the blogger had said that her relationship with the oil mogul was over.
