Ghanaian-American comedian Michael Blackson has disclosed that his love life has taken a painful turn, confirming his split from fiancée Rada Darling, just months after they welcomed the birth of their first child.
In a post shared on Instagram on October 27, 2025, Blackson explained that the past few months were filled with both joy and heartbreak.
According to him, while he was celebrating the arrival of his son with Rada, another close family friend he had known for over five years also gave birth to a child for him, less than two months later.
Rada gave birth to their son, Lil Mikey, in June 2025, while Michael Blankson’s other partner, who is a close family friend, delivered a baby boy named King Kweku Blackson in August 2025.
The news reportedly led to tensions in his relationship with Rada, eventually resulting in their split.

Michael Blackson, who got engaged to Rada in 2021 during a live broadcast of The Breakfast Club radio show, already had three older sons from previous relationships before welcoming the two new additions.
This makes him a father of five boys.
In his post on his Instagram page, the comedian expressed regret over how his actions affected Rada, admitting that he struggled with how to break the news to his family and fans.
He shared that even his mother and older twin sons only learned about the situation recently.
“Good Day to all my family, friends and fans. The last few months, God has blessed me, but in blessing me came a lot of pain. Two months after Rada gave birth to little Mikey, a female friend I’ve known for over 5 years also gave birth to my son, King Kweku Blackson. My two boys have brought so much joy to my life, but also caused me to lose my fiancé, Rada. Mikey was born on Tuesday, June 17th, 2025, and Kweku was Aug 6, 2025. My apologies for waiting so long, but I didn’t know how to do it. My older twin boys, who are now 18, didn’t find out till last night, and my own mom doesn’t even know.
“I love kids, and I want to thank God for bringing me two more healthy boys. My apologies to Rada, and I hope she forgives me for the pain I’ve brought to her. I’m going to be the best loving father in the world. To avoid turning into Nick Cannon or Elon Musk, I’m only dating women who ran out of period or had a hysterectomy,” he wrote.
