Willy Paul, a renowned gospel singer turned contemporary artiste, has made headlines recently with his personal life. In a recent interview with Milele FM, he revealed that he is a father to a one-year-old son named King Damian.

According to Willy Paul, he keeps his family life private to protect them from the public eye. He stated, 'I have a child, he is now 12 months old. His name is King Damian; by that name alone he is already a star.'

When asked about the possibility of a wedding, Willy Paul remained tight-lipped, saying, 'I like keeping such details private.'

Willy Paul has been vocal about his views on marriage in the past, stating, 'Marry a beautiful woman…gain praise from your friends. But cry every night in your own house.'

He also expressed his skepticism about love, saying, 'I’m not in love, although I know how to compose love songs. Women are difficult to deal with. It is not me but life has taught me; I don’t believe in love.'

Willy Paul's partner, Mali Queen, has been protective of their relationship, warning off other women who try to get close to him. She wrote on social media, 'Yah’ll ladies he’s Fully taken and soon will be walking down the aisle with the Mother to his Most Adorable son #KingDamian…Keep away ladies don’t bring him temptations.'

When asked if he would create an Instagram page for his son, Willy Paul declined, saying, 'I do not have time for petty fame; because you can never be sure if, when the child grows up, he/she would want that kind of lifestyle.'
