Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has opened up about her relationship with music executive Paul Okoye, popularly known as Paulo.
Speaking in an interview on TVC’s Your View, Iyabo shared that although she is in a relationship with Paulo, she deeply values her privacy. She explained that Paulo respects her need for space and fully understands when she chooses to return to her own home to enjoy some alone time.
The mother of two added that their relationship is not headed towards marriage, as they are both content with the way things are.
“Because of the way I work, I am such a workaholic, and he is also a workaholic. That Igbo man likes to work. For me, there are times when I want to be alone, and I just pack my bags and return to my house. We never fight over that because he understands.
We don’t want marriage”.
Recall that on December 21, 2022, Iyabo celebrated her 45th birthday by becoming public with her partner, Paul Okoye. The actress shared a video collage of their times together on Instagram, confirming rumors that she is dating the billionaire.
Speaking out about their relationship in an interview, Paul Okoye expressed his outrage over the mother of two encroaching on his personal space and stealing him from his numerous side chicks. Iyabo Ojo, who also has two children from past relationships, added that their relationship is for fun and not for childrearing.
