She went on to say she couldn’t imagine spending the rest of her life with anyone else other than him.
When asked what made her say ‘yes’ to the singer and businessman.
She said, “There’s too many. How will I chose one? I mean, first and foremost, he is my best friend. That’s my person. And I think when you meet your person, you know. I can’t imagine spending the rest of my life with anyone else.
“He is the person I’m excited and can just spend everyday with; build our lives together and walk through our ups and downs together and celebrate together and solve problems together. He’s simply my person. So, we are just excited for what is to come.”
On why she chose to adopt her husband’s surname after marriage, Temi added, “I’m now a married woman, the obvious thing for me is to take my husband’s name. But it’s my personal choice. I also respect a woman’s ability to choose.”
The thespian also explained that keeping her love life private helped her control her narrative.
