“I friend-zoned my husband for over one year” – Adesua Etomi

Nollywood actress Adesua Etomi-Wellington recently disclosed that she initially placed her now-husband, singer Bankole Wellington (Banky W), in the friend zone for a significant period before eventually accepting his marriage proposal.

Etomi-Wellington shared this information during a sermon at the Waterbrooks Church in Lagos.According to her, one of the reasons for friend-zoning Banky W was that she had not yet received a clear message from God regarding their potential relationship.

She emphasized the importance of friendship in building a solid foundation for any romantic partnership and humorously admitted to keeping Banky W in the friend zone for about a year and a half before their relationship took a different turn.“I friend-zoned him for two reasons.

One, I wasn’t sure that I have heard from God about whether this person was actually my person. Actually, three reasons. Second, marrying Banky W [laughs]. I was like, ‘my life on my own is chaotic enough, I would now marry Banky? No, no, no.’

“And then thirdly, just trying to at least have a friendship. And I honestly believe that the friendship we laid over a year and half has played a very big role in how our relationship is today. Banky W is my guy. I mean if you take away romance and sex and everything that makes a marriage, he would still be my guy. Banky is my best friend.”

Banky W suggested, “No, disregard sex. Let’s not dismiss it [laughs].” It was remembered that after captivating movie enthusiasts with their onscreen connection in ‘The Wedding Party,’ Banky W and Adesua Etomi got married on November 19, 2017, in a lavish ceremony attended by many celebrities. They celebrated the birth of their first son, Hazaiah, in January 2021.
