Being subjected to the constant public eye, it’s only normal for celebrities to wish for some privacy in more personal and intimate things such as weddings. Nigerian celebrities in recent times have held their wedding ceremonies in utmost secrecy and privacy. Weekend Magazine takes a look at some Nigerian celebrities who tied the knot in secret ceremonies.

D’Banj & Lineo Didi Kilgrow

For a long time, D’Banj was considered to be one of the top bachelor’s in the country. But he remained very tight lipped on his relationships. And the same applied to his wedding, as only very close friends and family knew and attended the ceremony here in Nigeria. He and his wife, Lineo Didi Kilgrow, had a son Daniel, who they unfortunately lost last year in a pool accident.

Funke Akindele & JJC

In August 2016, Funke Akindele, more popularly known as Jenifa for her role in hit comedy show Jenifa’s Diary, tied the knot with music producer and songwriter, JJC Skillz in a very hushed ceremony in London. The couple recently welcomed set of newborn twins just last month.

Zainab Balogun and Dikko Nwachukwu

Zainab Balogun rose to stardom in a relatively short period of time, after stints in blockbusters such as ‘The Wedding Party’ and a lead role in the 2017 production, ‘The Royal Hibiscus Hotel.’ She got hitched to millionaire aviation guru, Dikko Nwachukwu just last year in Lagos in one of the most secretly guarded weddings of the year.

Di’Ja & Rotimi

Mavin diva, Di’Ja, got married in December 2015 in a super secret wedding ceremony. There were speculations on her tying the knot, but none were confirmed to be true until she revealed it herself the following year, and also announcing that she and her husband had welcomed a baby boy.
