A few days ago, Olumide Aderinokun got married to TV presenter Stephanie Coker in a traditional ceremony attended by the who’s who of the entertainment industry. The extravagant wedding held on the 30th of last month remains the talk of the town.
Interesting are the details about the life and origins of the lucky dude. He is a nephew of Tayo Aderinokun, the late Managing Director of Guaranty Trust Bank, being the son of the late banker’s elder brother. The handsome dude drives around in exotic cars and is said to be popular with the Lagos Island crowd.
There are whispers, however, that Olumide’s marriage to Stephanie was possible only because the relationship between him and his Baby Mama could not progress to the altar stage. According to rumour, the mother of Olumide’s daughter, Tara, wanted them to spend their lives together but intractable issues put paid to that dream before he moved on to Stephanie.
But there is no doubt that he is over the moon with his newfound love. The Ogun-State-born dude, who was said to have shelved his political ambition just before the general election last year, is said to have showered his new wife with a N38 million vehicle, which has sent tongues wagging in the social media.
