Peter Ijagbemi Weds TV Star Folajogun Akinlami in Heartfelt Lagos Celebration

Peter Ijagbemi, renowned Nollywood actor and theatre arts graduate, sealed the knot with lover-turned-wife, Folajogun Akinlami, in a warm and intimate ceremony attended by close family and industry friends in Lagos on July 3, 2025. The joyous union was confirmed by the couple through heartfelt Instagram announcements.

Ijagbemi, most celebrated for his Yoruba roles since 2008, shared a simply stunning wedding snapshot with the caption: “To God be the glory, it’s official.” His wife, Akinlami—a respected TV presenter and producer—reposted the image and officially adopted his surname, writing: “Today I married my best friend and said yes to forever… Mrs Fola Peters Ijagbemi will do just fine.”

The pairing announced mutual commitment: Akinlami expressed that she “decided to give love another chance,” praising Ijagbemi as her lifelong partner. Their words echoed deeply with fans, stirring admiration and excitement across social media.

Celebratory messages flooded in from notable Nollywood stars: Allwell Ademola applauded “wishing you both a lifetime of happiness,” while Chizzy Alichi, Lola Idije, Femi Adebayo, and others offered heartfelt congratulations—affirming their support for the blossoming couple.

This marriage marks a fresh chapter for Ijagbemi, who previously married in 2016, divorced in 2022, and publicly shared that his first union faltered due to private values clashing with public life. His new union with Akinlami, grounded in mutual understanding and shared vision, contrasts sharply with past challenges.

Akinlami’s dynamic media career adds vibrant synergy to the partnership—her transition from maiden to Mrs Ijagbemi hints at future collaborations blending creative and professional realms.

Friends anticipate a celebratory reception soon, with behind-the-scenes details and exclusive photos expected on both their Instagram handles: @petersijagbemi and @folajogunakinlami.
