You might say that Celeb Police has a soft spot for helping celebrity marriages heal. You might not be entirely wrong. But then, we still have to treat the scandal cases that get to our investigations desk from time to time.
It is what it is. As a pre-Valentine Special, we bring you six good reasons why our analytics can’t be wrong on the matter that the Ubis may yet get together sooner than later.
1. Ubi Franklin’s Consistency In Playing The Married Man Card
Lilian Esoro may have permanently hung her ring for now, but Franklin’s decision to keep wearing his does send the very clear message that the man still treasures and cherishes his marriage. Whether he is wearing it for the love and the vow he made or for the sake of his son and social ‘responsibleness’, the bottomline still is: the marriage is not over in his mind
2. Ubi’s ‘Clean’ Record
There has been no scandal of any form touching the TripleMG part owner since his marriage issues escalated and led to a breakup last year. Obviously, Mr Franklin is leading a celibate life now. You may decide not to believe it, but that much our radar has picked. This alone will surely warm the heart of any woman who knows the kind of attention a man in the stature Franklin should get. Did you see the bevy of ladies during his just held birthday? Yet no scandal. The inevitable conclusion is: if he is not playing, then maybe he is serious?
3. The Spiritual Card
Ubi Franklin makes no pretense of the fact that he has taken solace in God since things fell apart in his celebrated marriage. Tons upon tons of posts in his social media space say that much, as the super manager hardly makes a paragraph without mentioning ‘God’. Which woman doesn’t love a repented and deeply spiritual hubby?
4. Glowing Talk Of His Family
On different occasions, Ubi Franklin had given several indications to the fact that he misses his family, even more his wife. From the post he shared where he talked about missing her by his side in church, to his celebration of their son, Mr Franklin has never hidden his passion for his family.
5. Continued Success
While the heart may be heavy over love gone sour, Mr Franklin has continued to churn out success in his different business fronts. A tight restaurant. A flourishing music label. Multiple endorsements of his major act, Tekno. The 50% buy-in into his company by Upfront and Personal boss, Paul Okoye. And yes, Sony Music money! If financial security is ever in doubt, Ubi is saying Lililan Esoro need not worry on that front. He got it covered.
6. That Birthday Shout-Out
The most unsettling problem in any relationship is when one partner just stops talking. This has been the case with Lilian Esoro. Besides leaving Ubi Franklin, she has been impenetrable. ‘Mum’ has been a two-way word to describe her, as a mother and for her deafening silence on the issue of reconciliation. When she decided to give a birthday shout-out to her estranged hubby, however, it was a priceless moment for many fans of the couple. More heart-warming was the fondness and sense of humour she packed into her little message. Telepathy is not admissible in our line of work, but we can almost certainly assure you that Mr Franklin leapt for joy in his living room!
What more can we report? Our analytical team has done its work, and we believe its only a matter of time before the lines that have already started falling settle in the pleasant places for Mr and Mrs Ubi Franklin. Like we foretold in the case of Tiwa Savage and TeeBillz, the Ubi and Lilian Esoro is about to happen. While we may not be able to tell you whether it will happen this Valentine or not, be assured it will be sooner than later.
