Here’s a polished, emotionally sensitive entertainment-column rewrite in British English, concise and respectful:
Barely hours after a three-day birthday celebration filled with joy and multiple parties, veteran Nollywood actress Faithia Williams has been thrown into mourning with the loss of her mother.
The tragic event occurred shortly after her second birthday party, Faithia Williams Unusual 2.0, held on Sunday, 8 February 2026. However, the news was kept from her at the time, as loved ones chose to shield her from the pain so she could fully enjoy the celebration.
On Monday, 9 February 2026, the actress took to her Instagram page to announce her mother’s passing, sharing the heartbreaking revelation with fans and colleagues.
Faithia Williams also appealed for prayers, love and support from friends, fans and family, noting that burial arrangements would be communicated in due course.
What began as days of celebration has now turned into a moment of quiet reflection and grief.
