Following the birth of her daughter, Toke had shut down reports that her baby daddy is a Muslim. She had responded to a fan who had expressed belief that her daughter’s father is a Muslim because of her name, Yakira, and Toke clarified that her baby daddy is not, and her daughter’s name is a Hebrew name, which means “beloved,” “precious,” and “someone of great worth.
Recently, the businesswoman responded to a netizen who accused her of being performative for only showing her daughter’s legs, arms, and back. Toke admonished the netizen to do what works for him. She said the long epistle over a child’s identity was bizarre.
A few weeks ago, Toke shared a sweet video of the moment she reunited with her daughter, after weeks of filming a movie in South Africa. She said being away was hard, and she would come home crying and then pull herself together to be present at work.
