Billionaire Dilly Umenyiora – real name (Okwudili Umenyiora) and his wife Fifi have reportedly decided to end their marriage of about 15 years.
ENigeria News reports that Dilly Umenyiora who is the founder and Chairman of the moribund Dilly Motors situated in the heart of Lekki Lagos announced the end of his marriage in a Whatsapp status update seen by us hours ago.
Perceived to be a power couple, Dilly Umenyiora and his fashion designer and socialite wife, Fifi Umenyiora were the cynosure of all eyes dotting matching outfits always in photos posted on their Instagram pages. Whatever happened to the once-upon-a-time lover remains untold, but has got tongues wagging within some cycles since the news leaked.
Although some informed insiders maintained that the couple had been having it rough in their marriage for a while all efforts to manage the situation appeared to have collapsed with the confirmation made by the businessman himself who said ‘yes it’s true”, after 17 years of dating and 15 years of being married, I’m afraid it’s all crumbled due to irreconcilable differences.
He also added, ‘The only reason I’m responding to this is to clear the air and avoid any questions or embarrassment should either of us be seen with other partners’.
