Celebrity marriages around the world are fraught with challenges and various degrees of scrutiny, and with every other day comes increasing pressure on couples in mainstream media.

It is as a result of this that people say celebrity marriages are three times as hard as ordinary unions, given the extreme conditions such relationships are exposed to.

Whatever the case, Tunde and Wunmi Obe are two people in Nigerian entertainment whose relationship has remained a source of inspiration to millions of fans, critics and fellow celebrities alike.

They have been together for decades with hardly a negative or controversial story about their respective brand names, quite a feat in a volatile industry as entertainment.

In April, 2016, Mavin pop star Tiwa Savage and ex-husband Tunji ‘Tee Billz’ Balogun split in a rather controversial manner after they both spilled nasty details about their relationship, a situation that made them the fodder for gossip blogs and soft sell magazines.

Though a slightly forgotten issue, the effect of their infamous break up will always be brought to the front burner whenever celebrity marriages are talked about in Nigeria. It’s a fact.

Tiwa Savage and Tee Billz were a power couple in Nigerian entertainment but clearly their union suffered from way more than they could handle, hence their break up.

While the industry continues to suffer from undue scrutiny, even though in truth every marriage has its challenges, Tunde and Wunmi have stuck together over the years, their relationship squeaky clean in terms of zero negative press. It is quite laudable.

Tunde and Wunmi Obe also known as T.W.O. are a respected couple in the Nigerian entertainment industry. They have recorded several albums as well as influenced a large audience with their sounds across various demographics.

In a 2015 interview with Premium Times, the couple distanced themselves from couple quarrels and everything close to this.

They maintained that there will be no such thing as a split of their marriage for any reasons, even though as a publicity stunt.

Today, Sunday, June 26, 2016, makes it 18 years since they’ve been married and as their union continues to weather various storms in its wake, NAIJ.com wishes them all the best in health of mind and body.

Edward Babatunde Obe is married to Valerie Omowunmi Obe. The couple met in 1988, dated for 10 years before finally getting married in 1998.

In a 2016 interview with the News Agency of Nigeria, the doting husband touched on salient aspects of his marriage and the reasons he got married to Wunmi.

He said:

“Marrying this woman helped me to be able to become who I am today, in the sense that we were living beneath our means for over a decade. There are many women who will never ever ever ever agree to live beneath their means.

“I will deny them of holidays, I will deny them of new cars, of clothes, I will deny them of everything because I was trying to build for tomorrow and she has so much faith and belief in me and where I was taking us. Because I’m the captain of my ship, I can’t lie, I am the captain of my own family.

“I’m the head of my family and I believe that whether we sink or swim is my responsibility.”

We wish them all the best in life.
