Sharon Ooja’s wedding ceremony was filled with emotional moments and heartwarming prayers.
The new bride, standing between her parents, was brought to tears when the MC prayed that she would not return to her parents’ house as a widow or a divorced woman. Her mother also couldn’t hold back her tears during this poignant moment.
Tears seem to be a recurring theme at recent celebrity weddings. Davido, another Nigerian star, shed tears during his wedding ceremony when his father-in-law prayed for him. His groomsmen had to console and cheer him up, making it an emotional event.
While Sharon Ooja’s wedding dominated social media trends, it also attracted some controversy. A blogger claimed that Sharon’s husband, Ugo Nwoke, was previously married three times and has three children from those marriages. This rumor suggested that Sharon is his fourth wife.
Sharon’s best friend, Bisola Aiyeola, quickly came to her defense, refuting the rumours and expressing her determination to ensure nothing spoils her friend’s happiness. She assured that they were ready to celebrate again during the white wedding on Saturday.
Celebrities have begun to react to the drama. Erica Nlewedim, in particular, expressed her frustration on Twitter, suggesting she might announce she’s married just to avoid the negativity surrounding good news in Nigeria.
Despite the controversy, Sharon Ooja’s traditional wedding has been a significant event. Bisola Aiyeola, serving as the Chief bridesmaid, showed her excitement and support throughout the ceremony. Keen internet users dug up evidence of Ugo Nwoke’s past marriages and his divorce in 2019, fueled by the blogger’s claims. Although Sharon has not responded to the rumors, she has received substantial support from netizens.
Sharon Ooja only revealed her husband’s identity during their traditional marriage. She had previously kept his identity hidden in engagement photos, which led to criticism from some netizens. In response, Sharon cursed those trolling her for not revealing his identity sooner.
As the drama unfolds, many continue to support Sharon, hoping the couple can enjoy their new life together despite the controversies.
