Veteran Nollywood actor Patrick Doyle has shared the heartbreaking news of the loss of his newborn daughter, Omayinuwa Harriet.

In an emotional post on his Facebook page on Sunday, the respected actor revealed that the baby passed away on Saturday at about 4:15 p.m., just a day after she was born.

“Omayinuwa visited us briefly at about 10:40 am on Friday 10th April and returned to heaven on Saturday 11th of April at about 4:15 pm,” he wrote.

“Her stay was short but it brought great joy with it. We would have wished for a longer stay, but alas, heaven thought otherwise.

“This much we know though, God still rules in the affairs of men. Our faith in the goodness of God remains resolute regardless. Sibe’ sibe’ Oluwa n’be’. It is well with our soul,” he said.

It was gathered that the child was Doyle’s daughter with his third wife, Funmilayo.

The actor had earlier shared news of her birth

on Friday, noting that both mother and child were in good health at the time.
