“If you rush in, you would rush out”- Funke Akindele-Bello tells single ladies as she shares some of the lessons she learnt after her first marriage ended

Popular Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele has finally opened up on why she married her first husband, Adeola Kehinde Oloyede.

Speaking during an Interview with popular media personality, Chude Jideonwo, Funke said the only reason why she wanted to share that part of her life is to encourage ladies out there that are in a rush to get married.

She also urged the ones that feel bad and are pressured to get married to calm down, take their time adding that if they rush in, they will be forced to rush out.

“I don’t want to drag anybody. I’ll talk about myself. I just wanted to get married. Children, pressure and all that.

”The marriage ended in a bad way. I was filming when someone called and told me. I wanted to die. I cried and lost a lot of deals.

“I survived that period by channelling my pain into work. I was collecting every script from the East and acting.

“I rushed into the marriage out of pressure and it didn’t end well,” she said.

Funke further advised women never to be pressured into getting married or having children as it will not end well.

Funke and Kehinde had walked down the aisle on May 26, 2012, but divorced in July 2013, citing irreconcilable differences.

However, in May 2016 she walked down the aisle again with Nigerian rapper JJC Skillz in London.
