Nigerian singer, Modupe Oreoluwa Oyeyemi Ola, better known as Mo’Cheddah, has revealed she and her partner dated for ten years before finally tying the knot.
The mother of one made this disclosure in an interview with Taymesan on his Tea With Tay podcast, where she spoke about her career, marriage, and motherhood.
According to Mo’Cheddah, before she and her husband got married, she was mocked and dubbed “Lord of the Rings” for dating for a decade.
She said they started dating when she was 17, and they got married ten years later in a private ceremony.
“I started dating when I was 17. I met my husband through music, Osagie introduced us, though at that time, I didn’t want to date. They use to call me ‘Lord of the Rings’ because we dated for so long. That was my nickname at some point. When I got to know myself, I was happy in real life. That’s what my husband taught me. I didn’t need to show people that I was happy. Didn’t need their validation.” She said.
“I love my private life and I don’t share it. There was no phone at my wedding. We weren’t living together before we got married and we have been together for 10years.” She added.
