The couple's exciting transition into parenthood began in May 2026, when they announced that Veekee James had welcomed her first child, Eliana Adeife Atere, who was born on May 2. 

Describing her birth as a profound answer to prayer, Veekee shared the deep spiritual meaning behind her daughter's name: a combination of "EL" (God) and "ANA" (He has answered).

She accompanied the announcement with the Bible verse 1 Samuel 1:27, expressing gratitude for the child she had prayed for. 

She paired the birth announcement with the iconic scripture from 1 Samuel 1:27: "For this child I prayed, and the Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him." 

Given that Veekee has always balanced her fashion empire with her deeply religious side, hosting the monthly Zion Warship concert and her own Bible podcast, the declaration felt completely authentic to who she is.

This joyous milestone arrived as a beautiful blessing for the couple, who have historically had to navigate heavy public scrutiny. 

Veekee has previously been candid about managing fame, noting how they strategically handle online backlash and how past malicious rumours regarding her relationship almost left her depressed. 

Shaking off the noise, the Ateres have focused entirely on their growing family.
