Kie Kie explained, “My husband and I began living together before our marriage because my rental lease had already expired. My lease was due for renewal in September, and our wedding was scheduled for January. Consequently, I couldn’t renew my rental agreement. By that time, we had already completed our traditional introduction ceremony. The church was not aware of our cohabitation, and I even continued singing in the church choir.”
She also disclosed that initially, she had reservations about getting married, but after a series of prayers and contemplation, she decided to take the step.
In February 2020, Kie Kie and her husband officially tied the knot, and they welcomed their first child, a daughter named Oluwashonaolami Olori, in November 2022.
