Nollywood Actor, Michael Okon Reacts To Rumours He Tied The Knot Secretly

Nollywood actor and model, Michael Okon has reacted to rumours that he recently got married secretly to a runway model.

According to Vanguard, dismissing the rumours, he said:

“I didn’t do any secret wedding but if I did, the media will be the first to know. We only did a photo shoot for a Nigerian UK-based designer, Afromodel Collections, and Bella Naija Weddings posted the pictures and “Boom!” everyone thought it was another pre-wedding shoot. The story really went viral because I’ve been getting congratulatory messages till today.

We had only a private event meant for models and crew how that turned to a marriage ceremony is what I don’t know. I reiterate that I am not married. I am not going to get married just because people want me to, neither would I do it just to enter another phase of my life just like some of my colleagues have done.

I seem to always get the wedding stories; as if once you’re married you have retired. The other time, still photographs of Destiny Amaka of Cool FM and me (on a movie scene) emerged on Instagram; and some bloggers took up the photographs and started to fabricate stories from their imagination.”
