According to her, she had stood in for her husband at one of their friend’s showroom events, where she confided in her friend that she was having a headache and feeling pain.
A friend had asked her to run a pregnancy test, which she declined because she didn’t want her hopes to be dashed.
She eventually succumbed to her demands and did a pregnancy test, which confirmed she was pregnant. The soon-to-be mum disclosed that she shed tears of joy for hours as she had already been praying for the fruit of the womb.
Her husband, who wasn’t in the country at the time, found out that his wife was pregnant on her birthday.
The couple’s love story goes back to 2017 when they met at the Eko Film Festival, however, Stan didn’t notice her then.
It was during his birthday that year that he took note of her after they were acquainted by a mutual friend, and that same year they started dating.
They got married in 2020 in a glamorous event attended by influential celebrities. The award-winning actor even surprised his wife with a performance by Timi Dakolo at the reception.
