Actress Funke Akindele Laments Raising Her Children Alone After Split from JJC Skillz (Video)

Popular Nollywood actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has revealed emotional details about her private struggles, including her separation from ex-husband Abdulrasheed Bello, known as JJC Skillz, and how she has been raising their children alone.


In a candid interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, the award-winning actress disclosed that JJC Skillz has allegedly failed in his responsibility of caring for their twin children, whom they welcomed in 2018, two years after their wedding in 2016.


Akindele, who also opened up about the emotional weight she carried following her mother’s death, her loss in the 2023 elections, and her collapsed marriage, said these back-to-back setbacks pushed her into depression.


“I lost my mum, my marriage ended, I failed in politics, I had to go back to work, I had to earn a living, and I have children I’m raising alone — then people online were attacking me,” she said, recalling one of the lowest points of her life.


“For the first time, I went live and broke down. I cried for weeks. My heart was aching.”


She revealed that she tries to quickly move on from painful experiences and doesn’t dwell on grief, but this time, the weight was too much.


JJC Skillz had earlier announced their separation in June 2022, stating that they had unresolved matters relating to child custody and business interests, but expressed hope that things would be sorted out amicably.


Meanwhile, fans and well-wishers have flooded social media with words of encouragement for Funke, praising her strength and resilience as a single mother and career woman.
