Nollywood actress and movie producer, Funke Akindele, has confirmed her marriage to Abdul Rasheed Bello, a Nigerian singer popularly known as JJC Skillz.
News making the rounds in the last few days, has it that the 39-year-old actress got married at a private ceremony in London, a day before her birthday but there was no official announcement to the effect.
Akindele, who is popular for her comedy series, Jenifa’s Diary, has now added “Bello” to her Instagram name.
The actress was formerly married to Kehinde Almaroof Oloyede in 2012 and the marriage was dissolved after a year due to what she described as “irreconcilable differences”.

On Snapchat, a social media platform, JJC has been sharing videos of Funke Akindele engaging in various activities and even described her as “family” in one of them.
Akindele had refused to share news of her relationship with JJC saying it’s her private life.
“I really don’t like discussing my private life anymore because it pays to keep that part of your life secret. A lot of people are watching and sometimes you read a lot of negative comments about yourself which could make you get distracted, so it is better to keep matters of the heart close to the heart,” she said in an interview.
“I am the one in it and I know what is good for me. I am sorry I don’t want to talk about anything that has to do with my private life”, Akindele added.
