While there is no doubting the fact that many of our female entertainers in movie and music had to settle for fairly used husbands, it is pertinent to note that many more were able to walk down the aisle with chacha, tear rubber (brand new) husbands. ENCOMIUM Weekly takes you through a rundown of some of them.

On March 23 this year, Omotola and husband, Matthew Ekeinde marked their 18th wedding anniversary. Theirs is a model union, a marriage that rubbishes the argument that celebrities cannot have successful and happy homes. Her early marriage to her pilot husband, who is 10 years older than her made her the envy of her peers-and 18 years on, the sexiest screen goddess, remains just that.

MUMA GEE It was a royal affair when music star, Muma Gee and her tear rubber prince charming, Nollywood actor, Prince Oluebube Eke exchanged vows in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Nigeria.
