Captain Matthew Ekeinde is Omotola's husband. He recently spoke with
Entertainment Express about the actress and their marriage. Enjoy part
of the interview below;
What is the secret of your 17 year old marriage to Omotola?
I won’t say we have been good because I am a
fine boy (laughs), but it is just the grace of God. I am so lucky and
also blessed by God to have married my God given partner.
That is a
very important thing about marriage, you have to find and marry your God
given partner. That is why a lot marriages breakup. Some men marry
women because of their hips, their boobs, legs and some other side
attractions. But after sex with her so many times, what happens next?
Does she have a good attitude, character or good human relationship with
others? I am not saying we are perfect couple, we have our own
differences but we are compatible.
We have been married for over 17
years with four beautiful kids. One thing that has been working for us
as a couple is that I always encourage her to be who she wants to be. I
give her full support always. Lots of married women that are caught
cheating on their husbands could be traced to the fact that some of
their husbands don’t allow them explore their talents. I encourage my
wife and kids to be what they want to be.Most of the influential men and
women we have in this world didn’t even go to school. So it is all
about exploiting your talents. Some women love acting but their husbands
won’t let them believing that other men would touch or exploit them
sexually. It is all about discipline. Those that want to cheat will
cheat; it is all about self control.
So when you see your wife kissing on set, you don’t get jealous?
No!
Not all. My wife tells me about her acting. Most times she even
complains that some actors she acts love scenes with have mouth or body
odour that she can’t wait to leave this scene. So I even pity her on
what she has to go through and endure being an actress.
This acting
thing is just some minute acts and that is it. Will she follow the actor
home? Lots of homes have been broken because of too pressure on the
wife or even the kids.
For the 17 years that you have been married, what are those special moments you can’t forget in a hurry?
Hmmm! Truly and honestly, I can’t forget the very first day I made love to my wife.
