Funke Akindele’s Husband, JJC Skillz Announces End Of Their 6-Year-Old Marriage

JJC Skillz, a Nigerian rapper and husband to Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele, has taken to social media to announce the dissolution of the six years old marriage.

JJC Skillz Ends Marriage To Funke Akindele

In a post shared on his Instagram page on Thursday, June 30, JJC Skillz said he had tried his best to fix their marriage crisis, but he now believes that it is beyond repair.

The rapper, who got married to the actress in 2016, revealed that he has been living outside their home for three months now as they are not living as a couple anymore.

He said, “Dear Friends and family, I need to let you know that Funke and I have separated. While it lasted we shared a lot of things together and have created 2 beautiful children.

“The last two years have been extremely difficult for us. I know I have tried my best to fix things but I believe it is beyond repair now.

“Three months ago and at Funke’s insistence, I moved out of the house and apart from AMVCA have not been able to get Funke to sit down in an amicable manner to discuss the future of our relationship.

“I’m making this announcement so that the public is clear that we both are pursuing separate lives. We still have issues that need to be addressed such as the custody and wellbeing of our children which is paramount as well as business interests which need to be disentangled but I have no doubt that these will be resolved one way or the other.”

This comes barely one month after JJC Skillz’s son, Benito Bello revealed that his father and Funke Akindele were not on good terms after a fight ensued between them when they discovered that they both cheated on each other.

  • JJC has been long separated from the wife, but I think it’s sheer wickedness for him to make public their Break Up saga just a night after Funke has been nominated a PDP Deputy Guber Candidate!

    While I cannot tell a man when and how to cry his cry but his intentions as regards the when seem ill.

    So this morning, instead of we discussing Funke as a Deputy Guber Candidate, we are discussing her divorce and how she allegedly threw her man out of the house!

    JJC represents a lot of Nigerian men, they don’t give a damn whether you left or they did , but they can’t just stand you doing better than the way they left you!
