There are a lot of celebrities who did not forget the women who stood by them when they were struggling. Those beautiful ladies did not stand with those celebrities in vain as their perseverance paid off. They would look back and say it was worth the wait.
There are people who do mistake being in a relationship with someone as standing with him. You might be in a relationship and not be a support, a source of inspiration, or source of encouragement to him. You might be just a parasite that would only milk the little he has. You might be the ‘too much demanding’ type. You might be the one that does not have anything to add to the relationship
It’s well known that men hardly forget women who were truly standing by them during their struggling days. Some of our celebrities are examples of men who did not leave the women who stood by them. They got married to these women even when they had the opportunity of choosing ten women if they want.
Here in this article, we are looking at some of our celebrities who married the women who stood by them when they had nothing.
Geoffrey Lutaaya;
Apparently Geoffrey Lutaaya and his wife Irene Namatovu started dating from way back. Literally Lutaaya was still as poor as a church mouse when Namatovu accepted his love. Sources say, that she was still a college babe at that time. But now the singing couple which has stayed together for over a decade is among the richest musicians in the land. Lutaaya is now an MP-elect who will be representing the people of Kakuuto is the August House for the next five years.
Peter Okoye (Psquare);
Peter Okoye met his wife Lola Omotayo when they were still struggling to make it in the music industry. Lola stood by Peter ever when she was not sure Peter would ever make it. She had a good job then and she was living better than Peter. That didn’t deter her from standing by Peter. Today they are happily rich and married with children.
Bright Okpocha popularly known as Basketmouth met his beautiful wife Elsie during he schooling days at the University of Benin.
Paul Okoye (Psquare)
Paul the twin brother of Peter Okoye met his beautiful wife Anita during his University days in the University of Abuja. Anita stood by Paul all through these years when Paul had nothing but his dreams. Today, they are happily married with children.
Bebe Cool;
Big Size Bebe Cool and his stunning bae Zuena Kirema have weathered the storm together. Bebe claims he met mummy Zue when she was still a virgin at 18. He further confirms that much as they bonked on the first date, that did not refuse them to face the world together. Bebe was a Minister’s son but apart from that he had nothing on his name to show. But now the couple has made a name and of course money for the decades they have been together.
Ronald Mayinja;
In one of her interviews Ronald Mayinja’s bae, Aisha revealed that her parents were very much against her dating the Tuli Kubunkenke star. By that time Mayinja was still grassing and struggling to make ends meet. But Aisha disobeyed the parents and moved in with unwanted Mayinja. Since then this couple has stayed under the same roof. Much as Aisha lives a low-key, she has played an instrumental role, sketching money plans for the family… As they say, Behind every successful man…
Jose Chameleone;
Many would argue that Chameleone first dated Dorotia when he was broke before he became a superstar. That the pair would have carried on till to date but just like Bobi says, everyone has a Specioza. Yes indeed, Chamili broke up with Dorotia and replaced her with a daughter of Acholi, Daniella Atim Mayanja. By then he had already made a name but he had no mansion or tangible investments like he has now. They have made riches together and of course babies! Their love story has had ups and downs but very inspiring. Last year they celebrated 12 years of holy marriage.
Bobi Wine;
“When badman loves, he loves to the maximum”, Bobi sings in one of his love song dedications to his special woman, Barbie Itungo. Bobi and Barbie have hustled straight from the Ghettos to their swanky bonking pad in Magere. This couple has literally seen it all, made it all and changed many narratives. They way these lovebirds have complimented to each other over the years is very inspiring. Bobi claims he took Barbie’s ‘Mbuzi’ from the Ghetto’s of Kamwokya while feasting on Kikomando and Katunda. But now they can afford to eat fish while sailing on their own boat, off the shores of their Busabala beach! Started from the bottom baby.
