Nollywood actress and fashion icon Temi Otedola has opened up about her marriage to Nigerian music sensation Mr Eazi, sharing heartfelt reasons why she chose him as her life partner.
In a recent sit-down with the BBC, the daughter of billionaire businessman Femi Otedola described the singer not just as her husband but as her “best friend” and “person.” Temi explained that their bond goes beyond romance, saying she cannot imagine living the rest of her life with anyone else.
“He’s my best friend, my person. When you meet your person, you just know. He’s the one I want to celebrate with, cry with, and build a future with. We’re excited for everything that’s ahead of us,” she revealed.
Temi also touched on her decision to take on her husband’s surname, emphasizing that it was entirely her choice.
“Becoming a married woman, the obvious thing for me was to adopt my husband’s name. But it’s a personal decision, and I respect every woman’s right to choose what feels right for her,” she explained.
The actress further highlighted how maintaining privacy in her relationship has allowed her to take control of her personal narrative, something she finds deeply important given the public scrutiny she often faces.
Just weeks ago, Temi and Mr Eazi tied the knot in a breathtaking ceremony in Iceland. The wedding was nothing short of magical, with global superstar John Legend performing at the event, adding a touch of international glamour to the celebration.
Their union has since been celebrated widely, with fans praising the couple for their authenticity, chemistry, and commitment to keeping their love story genuine despite the spotlight.
