Nollywood actress Omotola met her pilot husband at age 16, got married to him at age 18 and had her first child, Princess Ekeinde, at age 19 and later had other three kids.
However, when asked if she had ever considered the fact that her daughter, Meriah who is now 18, could get married any time and she would end up becoming a grandmother before her 40th birthday, Omo sexy as she is fondly called said, “I don’t care much about it. I don’t even want to think about that because I got married early. What I always tell people is that all fingers are not equal. The fact that I got married early does not mean that my own child will get married early. My mother didn’t marry early. So it is not hereditary. But if my daughter wants to get married early and I like the guy and If I see that he is responsible enough, why not?”

The popular actress had her first child at 14. According to her, she was dragged down that path by peer pressure. She was once reported saying, “Sometimes, I ponder on that. I had a child when I was 14. My peers influenced me. But it has been some time now.”
The 40 years old plus-sized TV star is still single though but believes that she would someday become a Mrs. Somebody.
“I am still very single. I believe I will get married some day. I don’t know when, but I will be married. I am beautiful. I am fearfully and wonderfully made. When the time for marriage comes, it will happen. Some people are late starters while some others are early starters. Maybe you will qualify me as a late starter in marriage. The most important thing is that I will get married some day.
