It’s already been 4-years since Funke Akindele secretly married her husband JJC Skillz in a low-key ceremony in London. Funke took the secret decision because when you carry the star power like the comic actress, there are a lot of prying eyes around. Only a few friends and family members attended the wedding ceremony after which the news started flying around the internet.
But the good news is that after 4-years in marriage, the couple showed they are still very much in love as they both gushed about one another, wearing a matchy-matchy outfit when they shared some heartwarming photos on Instagram to celebrate the years they have spent together.
This means that, of course, as Africans, the couple honored their anniversary in the only way we’d expect, with an epic photoshoot done in traditional attire. Looking beautiful, Funke shared the photos this morning as she slipped into the Nigerian Yoruba traditional wedding attire (a.k.a Aso Oke) finished with the matching headwrap and nude accouterments. JJC Skillz also twinned with his wife in the male version but finished with red coral beads around his neck.
For this major milestone (yes, because celebrity marriages hardly survive), Funke Akindele expressed her gratitude for making this far and also prayed for more years of blissfulness in their union. “All glory to God!!!” the actress shared on Instagram. “4 years and many more years to spend together in good health and wealth in Jesus name, I love you My King @jjcskillz.”
