Real Reasons Johnny Okosun’s Marriages Packed Up

Johnny-OkosunBusinessman Johnny Okosun has gone low profile. He’s mostly absent at top social functions and, sadly so, he has also ceased being a toast of ladies.

Sources claim that Okosun was compelled to go into social hibernation after a business deal he was involved with turned awry. Also, the crash of his marriage to his third wife, Queen Ebigieson, is also cited as one major reason Okosun slowed his roll.

Okosun got romantically involved with Queen following the crash of his marriage to Leila Testimony, his second wife. Prior to the crash of their marriage, both Okosun and Leila had so much going for them. They were jointly involved in the running of their business operations.

However, the marriage crumbled due to factors they’d jealously guarded. Shortly after Okosun sent Leila packing, he got romantically involved with Queen, a movie starlet.

The affair later resulted in the birth of a baby boy. It was gathered that Okosun was persuaded to perform the traditional marriage rites with Queen. He carried out this task without the expected buzz. However, the snag in the union was that Okosun would not allow Queen and their son live with him at his palatial residence in Ikoyi, Lagos.

Rather, he leased an apartment for Queen in Surulere and bought her a car as well.

Sources say he enjoyed spending quality time with Queen and their son and often showered them with gifts as well. But just when most people had thought he had finally found rest in marriage, Okosun decided to put an end to the affair. More pathetic is the fact that Queen had neither secured a paid job nor commenced a business. She depended solely on the goodies she was getting from her husband. For so many years, Johnny and Queen were enmeshed in a battle over the custody of their son. They made up eventually. Johnny now lives in his country home in Edo State. But he still comes to Lagos to see to his businesses.
