Music executive, Abdulrasheed Bello aka JJC Skillz has announced his separation from his wife, actress, Funke Akindele-Bello.
He revealed this in a post shared on his Instagram page this morning. He said the last two years of their marriage has been extremely difficult and that he has moved out of their home after Funke asked him to.
“Dear Friends and family I need to let you know that Funke and I have separated. While it lasted we shared a lot of things together and have created 2 beautiful children. The last two years have been extremely difficult for us. I know I have tried my best to fix things but I believe it is beyond repair now. 3 months ago and at Funkes insistence I moved out of the house and apart from AMVCA have not been able to get Funke to sit down in an amicable manner to discuss the future of our relationship. I’m making this announcement so that the public is clear that we both are pursuing separate lives. We still have issues that need to be addressed such as the custody and wellbeing of our children which is paramount as well as business interests which need to be disentangled but I have no doubt that these will be resolved one way or the other
Mr Abdul Bello”
There have been reports of their marriage being in crisis for a while. At the last AMVCA award, Funke and JJC arrived at the venue of the ceremony separately but sat together and even went on the stage together to receive an award won by Funke.
Also JJC’s son, Beni, had on several social media posts hinted that the marriage is in crisis.
Funke and JJC Skillz had their wedding in August 2016 and welcomed a set of twins in 2018.
