Temi Otedola, daughter of billionaire Femi Otedola, has shared intimate details about her marriage to singer Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi.
In a recent interview with the BBC, Temi revealed that the bond she shares with the singer goes beyond romance. For her, marrying Mr Eazi was a natural choice.
“First and foremost, he’s my best friend. That’s my person. When you meet your person, you know. I can’t imagine spending the rest of my life with anybody else … he’s the person I’m excited to build my life with, to celebrate with, to solve problems with. He’s simply my person,” she said.
Temi also addressed her decision to adopt her husband’s last name publicly, a move that caught fans’ attention when she updated her social media accounts. She explained that it was a deeply personal choice.
“It wasn’t something I thought about before. But when I became a married woman, the obvious thing for me was to take my husband’s name. It’s what I’m comfortable and happy doing, but I respect that every woman should be able to choose for herself.”
The couple, who have long been admired for keeping their relationship low-key despite their celebrity status, deliberately chose privacy in how they handled their wedding and relationship milestones. For Temi, it was about maintaining control over her personal narrative.
“Moving in silence allows you to have a certain control over things. You can share when you’re ready, how you want to, and in the way you want to share it,” she explained.
