Actress Omotola Jalade Ekeinde & Husband Celebrate 25th Wedding Anniversary (PHOTOS)

Veteran nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde and her husband, Captain Matthew Ekeinde are celebrating their 25th Wedding Anniversary today.

The couple are blessed with four beautiful children.

In an interview some years ago, Omotola opened up on how much she supports her husband and even ready to forgive him if he cheats on her.

Her words:

“Should one forgive a repeatedly cheating spouse? The first question to worry about is, why are they cheating repeatedly. The problem with us these days is that we are not patient.”

“The sin is very bad but the first thing we should do is assess the situation and the person in question. The questions are: who is this person really: is that the only problem?”

“Everyone knows I can forgive anything if they tell me. Just make sure I know. If my husband does anything, I will expect him to tell me. I can get angry but if you tell me you are sorted, because I can defend you.”

“I may still be angry with you but I will defend you because you have told me. To me, honour is important. At that point I feel honoured. That is how my own brain is wired.”

“If you are honourable enough to tell me I will respect you. It doesn’t mean that you and I are cool, but I will stand by you.”

“But if you don’t tell me and I find out or someone else tells me , you have broken the honour chain. That’s the way it works for me. And for me that might be unforgivable. I might or I might not forgive my husband of infidelity.”

“My forgiving him doesn’t mean I am through with him. But that he tells me is healing enough for me. It doesn’t mean it is right what he did or I am okay with what he did but it’s healing to my soul.”

Omotola Jalade-Ekehinde married her husband when she was only eighteen and welcomed her first daughter, Princess, a year later.
