This was their first
public outing in Nigeria since they had their private wedding in London on
August 23, 2016.
Dressed in a sequined
dress, Funke and her beau dressed in a suit, were at the premiere of the movie,
“A trip to Jamaica” produced by AY the comedian. The venue was the Filmhouse,
IMAX theatre, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos. The movie featured Funke aka Jenifa.
Married to rapper/actor
JJC Skillz whose real name is Abdulrasheed Bello, Funke looked chubbier. Though
no baby bump yet, the couple didn’t get their hands off each other
at the event.
The wedding had
generated much buzz and fans wondered the secrecy behind it.
The couple cleared the
air a few days later and declared they went for a private ceremony in the
United Kingdom to avoid been the cynosure of all eyes, their celebrity
status notwithstanding.
In a statement sent by
Funke Akindele’s publicist, Biodun Kupoluyi, Funke and JJC said:
“The decision to
do it quietly was right for us and we pray for the understanding of our close
friends and fans at this offer of a lifetime moment. At a good time, we shall
look back and in appreciation of divine grace and your support, we shall
celebrate milestones and where we are in life.”
Meanwhile, the working
couple has since hit the ground running, shooting scenes for the new episode,
Jenifa In London for the running sit-com, Jenifa’s Diary.
