The actor, who has two children from previous relationships, shared a series of heartwarming photos with his fiancée on his Instagram account, along with the wedding hashtag #MICHARLES2024, confirming that the wedding will take place later this year.

“The truth is I have never been married in my life and I am a happy man. You and I know what is going on these days. You see a couple married for a couple of years and next, they are divorced,” he continued.

“People you see as role models are getting divorced, and when you see them you are like, what is going on? These are people you have been looking up to and now they are divorced, how then do you want me to get into this marriage thing?” he added

Despite these reservations, Okocha now seems ready to embrace marriage, a decision that has his fans celebrating the unexpected turn.

Published

on

Eloswag, a former contestant on Big Brother Naija Season 7, has broken his silence following the release of his private video online.

The reality star reportedly uploaded a clip featuring himself and an unidentified woman on his Snapchat account at approximately 3 a.m. on Sunday.

Though Eloswag swiftly deleted the video, it had already caught the attention of the internet.

The explicit content quickly gained traction after being reposted by the controversial gossip blog, Gistlover, sparking widespread conversations across social media platforms.

In response to the incident, Eloswag took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his frustration and consider possible legal action.

In a now-deleted post, he wrote, “I mistakenly posted a video on my Snapchat by 3am and deleted it immediately, guess who has the video? GISTLOVER? How? Please, can I sue? Because it doesn’t make sense.”
