What went wrong?
It is no more speculation that the marriage, which was contracted on
Saturday May 26, 2012, months after Nigerian Entertainment Today first
spotted the couple at Industry Nite, at the Oriental Hotel in Lagos, has
entered seriously troubled waters.
With more angles now coming out, including allegations ‘Almaroof, the
man who stole Funke’s heart last year, swept her off her feet and landed
her in the altar, has become a serial baby daddy, keeping a string of
affairs, and even returning to the women he had prior to the celebrity
wedding with Funke Akindele, it was only a matter of time before it was
all out in the air.
Just like Mercy Johnson, who had a big pre-wedding scandal on her
hands after the wife of the man she was to marry stepped out and tried to
stop the wedding, Funke also had disgruntled wives to contend with.
There were many fans, friends and colleagues too, who felt she did not
need to settle with an already married man; with the attendant drama and
chaos. But, as it is in the things of love, just like Mercy, Funke went
ahead to tie the knot in what was unarguably, the most expensive, most
glamorous celebrity wedding of 2012.
‘Everyone close to them knows the thing is not working and Funke is
very unhappy. People have been advising her. She has just been busy
shooting and trying to occupy herself. They have not even lived together
since, but they are not divorced, and it is not like it is officially officially
over. Couples separate and come back together. Even some divorced
couples still settle. So why are people talking as if this is final?’ one
friend told NET, over the weekend, insisting ‘people should mind their
business or pray for the couple’
She was happy beyond limits on her wedding day. And the days to come
were full of bliss. So were did it all go wrong? Or was it a facade all
along?
Why the marriage failed
Prior to their high society wedding, it was widely reported that Kehinde
had several children from different women, a fact that was no mystery to
Funke. It was reported that he was married to two of the women, an
allegation that the ‘Jenifa’ star denied in an interview with a publication.
She boasted, ‘I can tell you authoritatively that my husband is not
married to anyone else. Yes, he has beautiful children, who are not mine
and we have a cordial relationship, which dates back to even before we
got married.’
But insiders have told Nigerian Entertainment Today that the actress
would later shockingly find many surprises along the way; even as
husband and wife started to discover there were so many things different
about each of them. ‘You know when you are in a relationship, it is
always a different thing from when you are in a marriage. Funke and
Kenny have always had problems but they have managed to conceal it
from the public. I don’t know if they have truly separated, but the
marriage was becoming shakier by the day’, a confidant who did not
want to be named told us..
For months there had been concerns that Funke’s husband was rarely
seen around her at most events she honoured. Mr Oloyede’s photos are
nowhere to be found on Funke’s Instagram page where she’s very active.
It was also widely speculated by observers that the marriage, right from
the inception, seemed like it was destined to fail because of all the
controversies that surrounded it. From Kehinde’s many wives to many
children, and of course alleged strings of affairs, many opined it was
surely going to hit the rocks sooner or later.
Moreover, for some reason, the couple allegedly chose to live apart, an
action which, sources say, did not help their bonding.
If Funke no longer trusted her husband, then she was not alone. Many
say it is possible Almaroof became suspicious of a very busy woman,
especially withy her endorsement galore and frequent trips. But, unlike
Almaroof, it is not certain if there were confirmed instances of infidelity
on Funke’s part.
‘He can never say he caught her with any man, or that she cheated’, one
Funke friend told us. Many others refused to comment on what is,
understandably, a sensitive issue.
Whose mistake; Funke’s or Kehinde’s?
In his Facebook message which announce to the world the crack in their
marriage, Kehinde refered to Funke as the greatest mistake he has made
in recent times. ’Am doing just fine, gettn along without u, don’t need u
anymore in ma life. u d greatest mistake av made in recent time’, he
wrote.
This assertion leaves one thinking-who made a mistake? Was it Kehinde
or Funke?
Funke had everything going for her, a budding career and a growing list
of endorsement. Many believe her first mistake was getting involved
with a man who was already married, and was rumoured to have an
unquenchable thirst for women.
Her second mistake, according to NET findings, was assuming that once
she and Kehinde were married, that he would only have eyes for her. If
for some reason, she thought she could change the man, then that was
her third mistake.
But it is apparent Almoroof has his many goofs too, and as one pundit
put it ‘they will begin to emerge in no time. All the possible
misdemeanour that could make a man say his wife is the greatest
mistake he’s ever made. He’ll begin to speak soon. Only a matter of
time’.
