Discussing Funke Akindele and celeb
marriagesWe are very familiar with celebrity
marriages and their attendant issues, but often, love is a force so strong
hardly anyone really knows when and how it
sweeps you off your feet,
celebrities inclusive. On Tuesday, August 23, 2016, unconfirmed reports made
the rounds that Nollywood star Funke Akindele had gotten into a secret marriage
with singer Abdul ‘JJC’ Rasheed Bello in London. While we are yet to confirm
this story, it should interest you to know that Akindele was previously married
to Kehinde Almaroof Oloyede, a property developer based in Lagos. Oloyede is
the son of the former Iyaloja of Oshodi and the marriage crashed after just one
year. READ ALSO: Nigerian celeb recounts begging for survival Share on Facebook

short videos on her social media accounts on her birthday and two elegant rings
were spotted on her finger. It’s been one of the biggest stories all week as
far as local entertainment is concerned and it is understandable why. Recall
that in May 2016, similar reports made the round as per both stars allegedly
secretly getting married, but they didn’t make any statement confirming nor
refuting the speculations. But with tell-tale signs surrounding her 39th
birthday celebration this August, it is easy to see why the media has been
replete with speculations of their marriage. And to be frank, it could all be
real as we have seen. READ ALSO: Movie star shares sexy photos in celebration

photos from snap chat clips that very obviously show her wedding rings. Then
there is the inexplicable excitement with which she’s celebrated her birthday
this year, not like it’s not worth it but the hype has been major. Lastly,
looking at her alleged husband’s message to her on Instagram on August 23,
2016; there’s yet another reason to believe this is for real. He messaged her
on the big day saying: “Happy birthday @funkejenifaakindele aka FAB. Many happy
returns. May all your days be filled with love, and happiness. You’ll find
peace in your home, work, body, mind and soul. You’ll never lack. Health and
wealth is your potion. Long life and prosperity. Stay blessed my best friend.”

while this doesn’t look like anything unusual given their romantic affair,
sources have broken down the ‘FAB’ acronym to mean Funke Akindele-Bello and it
fits perfectly. It is also important to add that the pair became reportedly
engaged in February 2016 following several months of a successful affair. All
of this remains unconfirmed. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Funke

really important here is the fact that celeb marriages have always been troubled
because more often than not there’s a certain unusual influence the media has
over those involved. It is so bad even Jay Z and Beyonce in all their ‘royalty’
have had to contend with issues stemming from this time and again. And they are
not alone, the issues of media influencing celeb marriages negatively, among
other things, have been the situation for years. Mary J. Blige got into a
marriage with Martin Isaacs in 2003 but the pair eventually split in July 2016.

They ended things in August 2016 after Cassie told the rapper she wanted out of
the affair. There was also the case between Amber Head and Johnny Depp, Jhene
Aiko and Oladipo ‘Dot da Genius’ Omishore, Jennifer Lopez and Casper Smart,
Apryl Jones and Omarion, Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris as well as Gigi Hadid
and Zayn Malik who all split in 2016. In the local industry, we remember the
likes of Doris Simeon and Daniel Ademinokan, Shina Peters and Clarion Chukwura
and most recently Tiwa Savage and Tunji ‘Tee Billz’ Balogun which took every
one by storm in April, 2016. Share on Facebook Share on Twitter File photo of

reality. Not to say there’s anything wrong with two stars coming together in a
union but often there are issues too big for them to deal with that they
resolve to split up at the end of the day. There are ego issues, media
troubles, public scrutiny and finances among other things. It is what it is.
Celebrity affairs and the media are sort of like tongue and teeth put together
seeing as they always clash and bleed. But in the end, each can do nothing
without the other. READ ALSO: Actress and friends party during bridal shower
(Photos) Why this is not a piece advocating that popular people or entertainers
do not get into a marriage or relationship and make it work, we are simply
saying it takes a lot more work. Every couple has issues but where the ordinary
marriage requires a lot of efforts to work things out in marriages, celebs need
to work twice as hard to maintain same relationships. But as they say, to each
man his own. We wish Akindele and Bello the best as they journey through to the
next level together.SOURCE;NIJA NEWS
