In a heartwarming and humorous twist that has sent waves of joy across social media, Nigerian comedian and skit-maker Josh2Funny and his wife, Bina Alfred, have announced that they are expecting their third child. But it wasn’t just the news of the growing family that caught fans’ attention—it was the hilarious and light-hearted way Bina broke the news. Sharing a series of glowing maternity photos on Instagram, the soon-to-be mother of three jokingly captioned one of the posts with, “I guess I’m officially a hen,” sending fans and celebrities into fits of laughter.
The witty remark has now become a viral moment, capturing the playful essence of the couple's relationship and adding another layer of admiration for their growing love story. Known for their public displays of affection and quirky sense of humor, Josh2Funny and his wife have always kept fans entertained not just through skits, but through their real-life banter, openness, and bond as partners and parents.
The announcement came as a pleasant surprise to many, as the couple had kept the pregnancy under wraps until now. With her radiant baby bump on display, Bina posed confidently in a flowy gown, her signature smile intact, as followers flooded the comments with congratulatory messages and laughing emojis. “Three already? You guys are on a roll!” one fan wrote, while another added, “That hen comment just made my day. Congratulations mama!”
Josh2Funny, whose real name is Josh Alfred, has not publicly commented yet on the announcement, but fans are already anticipating a skit or comic response from the comedian, who has built a massive following with his clever and often self-deprecating humor. Known for viral skits such as "The Fastest Reader in the World" and the “Don’t Leave Me” challenge, Josh has been one of the most consistent and innovative voices in Nigeria’s comedy space. His ability to weave humor into everyday life experiences has made him a beloved figure, not just in Nigeria, but around the world.
But beyond the laughter, Josh and Bina’s journey as a couple has resonated deeply with fans. The two tied the knot in 2020 in a quiet ceremony and have since welcomed two children. Their love story has often been shared as an example of finding joy in simplicity, partnership, and faith. Bina, originally from Ethiopia, has consistently shown her support for her husband’s career and is known for being Josh’s biggest cheerleader, often sharing behind-the-scenes moments and heartfelt posts about their life together.
This latest announcement marks yet another milestone for the couple. As Bina jokingly compares herself to a “hen”—a nod to motherhood and the seemingly rapid succession of pregnancies—many couldn’t help but admire her openness and sense of humor in navigating parenthood. The relatable and funny nature of her post struck a chord with fellow moms and women across the internet, with many commenting that the caption perfectly captures the feelings of joy, exhaustion, and acceptance that come with raising a young family.
“It’s beautiful to see a woman embrace this season of life with so much grace and laughter,” one follower commented. “Motherhood is a journey, and Bina just made it look so effortlessly funny and real.”
Amid all the excitement, celebrities and influencers joined in to celebrate with the couple. Fellow skit-makers, actors, and musicians congratulated Josh and Bina in the comment section, some even making lighthearted jokes of their own. “You’re not just a hen—you’re a mama eagle!” one joked. Another quipped, “Josh2Funny needs to rename himself Josh2Fertile.”
While the gender of the unborn baby has not been revealed, fans are already placing playful bets on whether the couple will add another boy or girl to the family. Their previous two children have rarely been put in the spotlight, as Josh and Bina have kept their identities largely private, opting to share only occasional glimpses without full facial reveals. Still, the love and joy they pour into their home have always been evident through their words, photos, and moments shared online.
This announcement comes during what seems to be a season of baby news in the Nigerian entertainment industry, with several celebrities recently revealing pregnancies and welcoming new babies. But Bina’s hen joke has undoubtedly set her apart, bringing a refreshing dose of humor to the timeline and reminding fans that there’s always room for laughter, even in the most personal milestones.
For many who follow Josh2Funny’s career, this moment also underscores the balance he and his wife have struck between public life and private happiness. Despite being one of the most recognized comedy names from Africa, Josh has remained grounded in his values and family life, often expressing gratitude for his wife’s role in his journey and for the blessing of fatherhood.
As fans eagerly wait to hear more from the couple—perhaps even a signature comedy skit about the arrival of baby number three—one thing is clear: the Alfred family is growing, and so is the love and admiration for them. In a world often weighed down by heavy news and societal stress, Bina’s hilarious yet sincere caption was a breath of fresh air, reminding everyone that joy, love, and laughter still thrive in the small, everyday announcements of life.
And as for her new nickname? It looks like “Hen Mama” just might become a fan favorite.
