Temi Otedola Shares Insights On Marriage, Privacy, And Life with Husband Mr. Eazi

Weeks after Temi Otedola’s wedding garnered a lot of attention, particularly after Vogue published it, she is still popular.

The billionaire’s daughter, who married singer Mr. Eazi, recently gave the BBC a perceptive interview. The date of the couple’s civil wedding, which took place in Monaco on May 9, 2025, was very significant because it was also the birthday of Mr. Eazi’s late mother.

The pair received praise on social media for their exquisite and sophisticated celebration.

As Temi talked more about her personal life and love during the interview, viewers were captivated.

She disclosed that after dating Mr. Eazi for almost eight years, getting married felt like the next logical step.
She noted: “There are too many. How would I choose one? I mean, first and foremost, he’s my best friend. It’s that’s my person. And I think when you meet your person, I can’t imagine spending the rest of my life with anybody else.

“He’s the person I’m excited about and can’t wait to spend every day with and build our lives together, work through our ups and downs together, celebrate together, and solve problems together. He’s simply my person. So, we’re just excited for what’s to come.”

Surname adoption
Furthermore, the actress, known for her role as Moremi Oluwa in “Citation”, stated that she never considered dropping her surname.

“To be deeply honest with you, it’s not anything I had thought about. It was obvious that when I became a married woman, the obvious thing for me was to take my husband’s name, but it’s my choice. I respect everybody’s personal choice. It’s what I’m comfortable and happy doing”, she added.

The co-host of the podcast “How Far? With Mr Eazi and Temi Otedola” said her decision not to make her relationship with Mr Eazi, along with other aspects of her life, public was based on her own narrative.

“It’s not necessarily about privacy. I think it’s more about owning your own narrative. And there’s something about moving in silence that allows you to have certain control over things.

It will enable you to build a narrative you want, and you can also share it when you feel you’re ready to show it, when you want to share it, and how you want to share it.

“So I think all of those things are kind of why I’ve always been someone to share, whether it’s a work project or personal news, I share it in my own time,” said the L’Oréal Paris Digital Brand Ambassador.

Father’s book
She further stated that she believed her father wrote and published “Making it Big: Lessons from a Life in Business” because he possessed decades of experience in business, life, and interpersonal relationships.

On 18 August, Mr Otedola released the book, chronicling his extraordinary journey from modest beginnings to becoming a billionaire at the age of 41.

She added that her father held a wealth of wisdom, noting that she felt fortunate to be his daughter, as she had learned and grown under his guidance.

Mrs Ajibade noted, “But I believe he thought it was time for the rest of the world to learn and understand his journey as an entrepreneur. As a businessman, I believe that, as a businessman in the public eye, there are a lot of misconceptions about you and your journey.

Live with Purpose, Love with Passion. Remember to be happy
