Screen Diva, Funke Akindele Marries Beau, JJC Secretly In London At 39 …Family Shocked As She Shut Them Out Of The Wedding

Funke Akindele

After many rounds of rife speculations and rumours of their love tango, the duo of Nollywoood star actress, Funke Akindele and musician, JJC of the 419 Squad, put paid to the speculations,after they reportedly got married,secretly, in London yesterday.

Interestingly, it was the day Jenifa, as Funke is fondly called, 39th birthday. But perhaps what irked many about the secret wedding was the absence of Funke’s family members at the nuptials.

Apart from Funke’s youngest sister, Abimbola, who was only invited to London hastily by Funke, without even being told of the impending wedding until she got to London, no other member of the Akindele family was present at the wedding.

We gathered exclusively from a close family source that the conspicuous absence of Funke’s principal family members at the wedding could not be unconnected to the fact that the family was not in support of the relationship between Funke and JJC (real names Abdul Rasheed Bello).

So it was only natural for Funke to shut them out of the wedding, since they were never in support of the affair after all, especially her mother, who never hid her disdain for Funke’s new choice of another man in her life, after her much celebrated first wedding to Lagos big boy, Kehinde Almaroof Oloyede, packed off irretrievably, about four years ago .

Funke, we also gathered is now being referred to fondly as FAB, an acronym for Funke Akindele-Bello. Abdul Rasheed Bello (a.k.a JJC),who has kids from other women, is a fading singer and music producer.

Insider divulged that, the most devastating part of the scenario, is that her family members, also got to know about Funke’s wedding when it buzzed the web, a situation which came to the entire family as a shock and rude embarrassment. The nagging question, however, on the lips of many is: why would Funke shut out her family from her wedding, even if they had a different opinion about her choice? One hopes Funke has not embarked on yet another matrimonial bump, which characterized her first wedding.
