However, it turns out that Denzel is the son of Morenike Ebimami, the comedian’s sister.
Morenike had celebrated the young lad three days ago on Instagram.
She wrote: “Denzel May this year bring you growth, joy, and the realization of your dreams. You make my heart proud every day!”
“Wishing the most incredible 17-year-old son a fantastic birthday! Your strength and kindness light up my world. Enjoy your day my pride.”

The comedian got married to Mabel in 2008. Their union is blessed with two daughters — Michelle and Ayomide.
