6 Apr – Jamal Abdillah is excited to finally welcome his sixth child, and the fourth one with wife Zai Izzati, who will be delivering the baby on 14 April.

The legendary singer, who spoke about the upcoming new addition, shared that he and his wife originally wanted to welcome their fourth baby on 1 April in commemoration of their sixth wedding anniversary, but was advised to delay it.

"The doctor said that it was not a suitable date, and instead gave us 14 April," he added.

Jamal also expressed his gratitude that they will now have a complete set of two boys and two girls, as Zai is set to give birth to their second daughter.

The singer, who tied the knot with fourth wife Zai Izzati in 2017, welcomed their first daughter Azura in 2019. This was followed by son El Issac the next year, and another boy Iskandar Rayyan last year. The singer said that his wife was also advised to not get pregnant again after the fourth, seeing that she has undergone surgery four times.

Aside from the four children with Zai, Jamal is also father to singers Osama Yamani and Zaki Yamani from previous marriages.
