Popular Yoruba actress, Kemi Afolabi, has disclosed why she opted for a secret wedding recently, which caught some people off guard.

She further said she decided to settle down with a man because she felt it was necessary for her to do so.

Kemi told Gbolahan Adetayo that, “I wouldn't call it a secret wedding because I invited a number of people to attend the occasion, and there were my parents and his also in attendance. The reason being that I don't want a big party for myself. I and my husband decided to invite only very important people to grace the occasion.”

“I didn't want a big party for myself, so I didn't make noise about it. The engagement held at my father's house in Okota, Lagos State, though a very quiet one. My husband is based in UK, so I went to him to start our lives afresh.

“I had a baby girl in the UK. Shortly after the engagement, I got pregnant and I went to put to bed in the UK. At the moment, the girl is in the country with me, I mean my daughter. You know, visiting her mother's country for the first time,” she said.
