Firstly, I grew up knowing some people who as celebrities were known by a particular name and then the name changed. Subsequently, the marriage did not work and they went back to their maiden name. I did not want that to happen to me, so if I am Joke Silva, I am Joke Silva. If the marriage works, I am still Joke Silva, and if it does not work, I am still Joke Silva.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">\u201cSecondly, I was quite young when I got married but it also seemed as if these celebrity marriages were not marriages that worked all the time. Also, all my husband\u2019s professional life before we got married was in England and over there, nobody changed their names when they got married. Sometimes you would not even know that this person was married to that person because they retained their identity. Most times it is a brand. My brand was being built and was doing well around the time that we got married, so why change it? That does not change the fact that I am still Olu Jacob\u2019s wife.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Legendary veteran actor, Oludotun Baiyewu Jacobs professionally called Olu Jacobs, will clock 80 on July 11, 2022.
