You will agree with me that its not easy
for any celebrity in any part of this
world to remain in a man’s house as his
wife for over a decade without divorce!
You will also node to the fact that it’s
not Akara for a Nollywood actress’
marriage to survive the constant media
stabbing pierced into their private lives
every time!


The likes of Kate Henshaw, Shan George,
Eucharia Anunobi, Monalisa Chinda,
Frank Edoho, Ara the drummer, Saheed
and Fathia Balogun, Funke Akindele etc
are breathing examples of how easy it
is to jump out of your matrimonial
home and how hard it is to keep a home
in “Celebrity Land”.


This is a society where marriage is
treated as a sacred thing, when a
woman is seen freely socialising with
men, what greets it is a frowned face.


But OmotolaJalade Ekeinde has
successfully pushed through all the
hurdles and still stands firm as a married
woman.

This singular achievement has made her
more respected and loved by millions!
But what really has kept her marriage so
far?

I have taken time to look at this and this
is what I found out: As a journalist, I
have interviewed both Omotola and her
husband, Capt. Mathew Ekeinde. “If I see
Omotola with seven men in a bedroom,
I won’t be moved because I trust my
wife” that was what Capt. Ekeinde told
me when I asked how much he trusts
his wife.


Then I asked another question: it is
believed that men who behave like that
are also sleeping around; “Well I don’t
sleep around” he affirmed. So with this,
it is obvious that one of the factors
helping Omotola’s marriage is her
husband’s blind trust in her.


Secondly, I believe that the fact that
Omotola was married before Nollywood
helped her so much. As a mother with
grown kids, you don’t mess around and
if you do, you park your shit neatly!

Even if Omotola or a hubby at a point
wanted out of the union, because of the
children, they would have had a rethink!
Thirdly, Omotola has just been
extremely lucky! With the kind of
negative media she has had in her
career, Omotola’s marriage should have
crashed into Olumo Rock several years
ago! Its not that she is the Saint of
Nollywood!


No, in fact, she has been allegedly linked
in several sex scandals with top
Nollywood big boys like Tchidi Chikere,
Richard Mofe Damijo and co but God has
kept her going. The kind of scandals she
has encountered should have shattered
any marriage in the world beyond
repair! Yet @Realomosexy still crosses
her legs on the royal throne of Mrs.
Ekeinde.

The cliché has been “behind every
successful man there is a woman”, in
this case, it is wise to say “behind
Omotola’s successful marriage there are,
a trusting husband and God’s grace!
