Nollywood actor Charles Okocha has shared his thoughts on the right time to settle down, revealing that after years of being a “baby daddy,” he believes now is the time to commit. He spoke candidly about his decision to marry, noting that it was a natural step for him at this stage in his life.
In an interview, Okocha revealed that he has been secretly dating his bride-to-be since 2017, explaining, “I am getting married because it’s only right for me to be married. We have been dating since 2017, quietly, with no social media show of affection. She lives in America and is a nurse. So, it is true.”
Regarding his children’s reaction to the news, he added, “My kids are very comfortable and happy with the news.”
Okocha, a father of two from previous relationships, made the announcement of his upcoming marriage on Instagram on November 5, 2024. Sharing adorable photos with his fiancée, Okocha introduced the wedding hashtag #MICHARLES2024, confirming that the ceremony will take place this year.
Some fans were surprised by the news, considering his earlier reservations about marriage, which he expressed in a previous interview. “The truth is, I have never been married in my life, and I am a happy man. You and I know what is going on these days; you see a couple married for a few years, and next, they are divorced. These are people you’ve looked up to, and now they’re divorced; how, then, do you want me to get into this marriage thing?”
