Ayo Edebiri was born to her parent’s father Dele Edebiri and her mother Helen O’Neal-Edebiri. They raised her with strong Nigerian beliefs.
The American comedian’s father Dele reportedly is originally from Benin, Nigeria whereas her mother Helen emigrated from Barbados. As of now, her parents reside in Boston, Massachusetts.
Her mother Helen attended Northeastern University according to her Facebook. Both of her parents aren’t religiously active across social platforms henceforth, accessing precise information is quite challenging.
Edebiri’s father Dele is available across social stages including Facebook and Instagram. His Instagram account has 183 followers presently. Whereas Helen’s Instagram remains private currently.
Edebiri has uploaded pictures of her parents on her social platform. Likewise, she has also requested her followers to follow her father in Letterboxd, a social stage for sharing your taste in the film, via her Twitter on December 2, 2020.
The American comedian also shared some screenshots of their conversation on the platform. Edebiri’s father Dele’s letterboxd bio reads “I am Ayo’s dad.”
Similarly, the comedian updates her Instagram feed with her parent’s pictures occasionally. Edebiri shared a throwback picture with her father Dele on June 20, 2021, via her Instagram account.
The web personality wrote, ‘he hasn’t responded to my thoughtful text so I will seek gratification elsewhere,’ in the captions. Edebiri wore a denim jacket while her father pouted for the camera.
Likewise, she uploaded a carousel of pictures with her dad Dele on Father’s day in 2020. Edebiri penned the caption, ‘Happy father’s day to my favorite heroic African. I stole my personality from him and that is the tea.’
The carousel includes three pictures with the first one of Edebiri’s father holding a book named Heroic Africans. One can tell she has a robust and close father-daughter relationship.
Edebiri also shared another carousel of pictures with her parents in 2018. The first picture is with the comedian standing with her father and mother as they pose for the camera.
Her father wore a red polo shirt with black horizontal stripes and beige-colored pants. Whereas her mother Helen went all black and Edebiri wore a beige cardigan over a white shirt tucked in blue jeans.
One thing for sure is that regardless of opting to keep her personal life away from media scrutiny, Edebiri occasionally teases the internet about having quality time with her family via her social account.
