*How Louis kicked out the heavily pregnant Kike
Fairy tales never last forever. Little wonder celebrity marriages crash and burn in record time. When Kike Fajemirokun, the daughter of Chief Olu Fajemirokun and Louis Mbanefo, the son of Chief Mbanefo got married exactly one year ago in the city of London, it was believed that no society wedding would compare with theirs again.
Brimming with all the accoutrements required to make a Prince’s marriage a monstrous success, including the bride’s father’s contacts in the business world, their marriage was expected to be ethereal in breadth and substance.
Yes, London High society cannot forget anytime soon the mouth-watering, high-budget wedding ceremony of Kike and Louis in London. The bride’s parents ferried their guests to London. So breath-taking was the party and consumption of continental cuisines and drinks that the venue’s rivers of champagne and expensive alcoholic drinks thinned to a tributary. Good money was put to great use for Kike and his beau.
Thereafter, the couple criss-crossed the world for their honeymoon playfully running after each other and picking pebbles on the sandy esplanade of holiday resorts while retiring under the moonlight of Europe’s scenic cities among other idyllic vacation spots. It was a wedding that was supposed to be made in heaven.
Alas, 12 months down the line, the marriage has crashed irretrievably. While it lasted, they had no child. But she is heavily pregnant even as you read. unfortunately, Louis has reportedly kicked her out of the house with her paraphernalia flung after her.
Now, all the starry-eyed visions the couple had have been consigned to the waste basket of history. The story of how they got to this sorry pass is not any different from others that have come before them.
Kike, we hear, has been shouting herself hoarse that the fault is from her husband’s mother. The collapse has been traced to a very overbearing figure in the family, Louis’ mother, who is believed to be uncomfortable with the manner in which Kike has been running her son’s home.
However, here’s the sad reality: not a few silver spoon kids give up marriage, even when its glaring that they only need to work through the very issues that caused the trouble in the first place.
Thus having married young, they keep on marrying, springing from bride to bride or groom to groom like the chamois of the Alps undeniably adept at leaping from crag to crag. This explains why second and third marriages oftentimes, fail more than first marriages; and the third marriages are even worse.
Oftentimes, the estranged couples shamelessly wash their dirty linens in public revealing to all and sundry things are that best kept secret. Many a party to such marriages has revealed that they had been victims of forced marriages and inconvenient betrothals that never enjoyed their consent.
Shamefully, after spending so much money, the farce devastatingly ends oftentimes for the two strange bed fellows forcefully united on the altar of their parents’ vanities and egotism. It’s indeed a pitiful world for these scions of the rich
However, they hardly get to help the situation more often than not. Take the case of silver spoon ladies for instance; along with their money and beauty often comes that really conceited sense of entitlement, that inner knowingness that goads them to think; ‘I’m better, I deserve more, I shouldn’t have to deal with or put up with x, y, or z in life. I’m special.”
Such conceitedness often emanates from being born into money, being in the public eye and having their every squabble and misdemeanor with their partner inordinately glamourized by the media. For example if seen bickering, the media may speculate that a celebrity couple are about to split, even if the argument was quickly resolved.
Couples who willingly live in the spotlight, craving all manners of attention and media mention also make things worse for themselves. For instance, more silver spoon couples have admitted, after their marriages crumble that they had rushed into it and gotten swept up in the media frenzy.
