2face and Annie |
This
is probably the best love story ever, after all the ups and downs, the
break- ups, cheating and all, they still ended up as ONE!
How They Met
Annie
first met 2face Idibia at Even Ezra Music Studio when she was just
fifteen and in her words, “I think there was some electricity that
second”.
They were friends first but had started dating officially
by the time they shot the “African Queen” video in 2004. That was when
2Face announced that they were together during an interview. Mehn, they
don tey oh…
I remember my 16th birthday at Alpha Beach, with me
and my friends. When we were going home, we all walked to the bus stop
with him and his cousin. Plantashun Boiz had just recorded “Knock Me
Off” at the time so he wasn’t a star yet.
So we got into the bus,
he sat in front with his cousin so when we wanted to pay the conductor,
he said, “no, he done pay already” I was feeling like a babe. “Hey! My
boyfriend paid everybody’s bus fare.” And that time, bus was like N2.50k
or N3 per person for about 14 people. But he told me recently that he
didn’t eat that night because he paid for everyone.” awwwwwww
Soon
Annie’s entertainment career became a lot more difficult as a result of
being known as ’2Face’s girl’ and then they had their first breakup,
came back, broke up again…
She was hurt when word got out that, in
quick succession, 2Face had gotten two different women pregnant – Pero
Adeniyi and Sumbo Ajala. At that point, the couple broke up.
When
Pero and Sumbo yet again got pregnant for 2Face, that was when 2Face and
Annie had their longest break-up which lasted almost a year and a half.
But as they say, love will always find a way, they made up again and
Annie gave birth to 2Face’s fifth child Isabel and then in 2012, Pero
gave birth to his sixth child in the US. Well, Pero couldn’t prevent
them from being together…smiles!
In 2012, 2Face proposed to Annie
on Valentine’s Day at Jay Jay Okocha’s Club 10 in Victoria Island,
Lagos. And, they weren’t even dating then, although were still on
talking terms after he had called her out of the blue a few weeks
before, visited her at home and asked for her forgiveness and
friendship.
According TO eye-witness reports, 2Face took Annie to a
quiet section of the club, he knelt down and told her “I KNOW WE have
had OUR ups and downs but it will be MY heart’s desire for YOU to marry
ME” and then presented the dazzling ring and Annie began screaming “YES,
YES, YES” after crying her eyes out!
Shortly after 2Face‘s
concert when he brought out then-fiancee, Annie during his performance
of“African Queen”, the two secretly legalized their union in a Lagos
registry on Tuesday, May 1 2012.
…hmmn, their super expensive
traditional wedding sha sha sha took place on Friday 8th March 2013,
equipped with two big wedding parties before & after. The wedding
shook akwa ibom…
And now their big white wedding is going down
live tomorrow in DUBAI from the Jumeirah Beach Hotel to a private island
and more!…aint that just amazing! I heard Dubai is already filled with
all the Nigerian celebrities.....
