There has been some rumbling among fans who don’t like the idea of Akeem having an illegitimate son out there, because it would seem to indicate that he actually “sowed his royal oats” before finding Lisa McDowell (Shari Headley) as the love of his life. However, I’m betting that there will be some kind of comedic twist where the son actually turns out to belong to Akeem’s confidante Semmi (Arsenio Hall), who was all about being a little promiscuous when he was in America.
