Nigerian media personality Tolulope Oniru, better known as Toolz, has shared a word of advice for brides-to-be.
In an interview with Morayo Afolabi Brown, she reflected on her 10 years of marriage to her pilot husband, admitting it hasn’t been easy. She said that couples who have been married for decades and are happy have worked through various challenges.
She credited her marriage to God, saying she and her husband pray a lot. Toolz also gushed over her in-laws, declaring them the best. She revealed that her father-in-law was the one who asked her to marry his son and helped her with her wedding ring.
Sharing a word of advice for intending couples, she said if one’s mother-in-law or father-in-law doesn’t like them, they shouldn’t try it.
“Marriage isn’t easy. If you see anyone who has been married for 10, 15, or 20 years, that’s a big thing because they have worked through different things. There are times when you question yourself on why you are still married.
I dedicate my marriage to God because we pray a lot.
I have the best in-laws.
If you aren’t married and you meet your potential in-laws and they don’t like you, don’t try it.
There are people who get into that situation and are like… It’s a big deal.
My father-in-law and my mother-in-law are like my favourite people.
My father-in-law asked me to marry his son and was the one who bought the ring”.
Toolz, while responding to questions about whether her body shape is natural, jokingly said she was one of the first people to get a BBL. She said she got her huge backside from her mother.
“I’m gonna confess, I’ve never said this before: I was one of the first BBL people.
I’m lying. What do you want me to say? I’ve got my mom’s shape. My mom like hippie, big shout-out to my mom. I moved back to Nigeria in 2009, and before that I was so self-conscious. “
