On her husband being the best thing that has ever happened to her:
My husband is the best thing that has ever happened to me. He’s an actor. He has been in the Yoruba industry so I have always known him. He’s my senior colleague so I am always like, he’s too calm…
In real life, my husband is a prayer warrior. Whenever I go to Abeokuta, he is my friend. So we started getting close and close and that was just it. So we started dating. I didn’t even want anybody to know. I didn’t want anybody to know about it so we started dating. I just realized I was getting so fond of him. When he wants to go to work, I will just tell him, I want to come. So I will follow him and be in the room. Some other times, I will tell him that I want to sit down, and I don’t mind what anybody will say. From there I took him to my parents, and he took me to his parents and we had a little introduction. I got pregnant and we got married.
