Iyabo Ojo has never shied away from speaking her truth, especially when it comes to her past marriage.
In a 2023 interview with media personality Toke Makinwa, the Nollywood star gave a rare insight into her union with Priscilla’s father, Ademidun Ojo, revealed that marriage was her first real encounter with poverty.
Recalling her initial visit to her ex-husband’s home, Iyabo admitted she was taken aback by his living conditions, a modest ‘face-to-face’ apartment that painted a stark contrast to what she had envisioned.
Now, years after parting ways with Ademidun Ojo, Iyabo has found love again in the arms of music entrepreneur Paulo Okoye.
