This is a dream come true for Princess Ashley, who has been a long-time concubine of the monarch.
From today, Ashely ceases to be a princess, as she finally takes up the title of a Queen.
The royal wedding was held in Ile Ife.
The king’s family members are also said to be moving to the late Prince Adeniyi Adegoke’s family house situated on Olubose Street, along Ede road, the ancient city of Ile Ife was agog with fanfare.
Just like the wedding of Queen Tobi Phillips, the Ooni was nowhere in sight at the wedding ceremony. His chiefs, the royal guards, and the royal staff were there to represent him.
Many expressed excitement over the good news as they noted how the Princess deserved a place at the King’s throne.
Princess Ashley would be the King’s fourth wife, as he already has three wives who he married within two months.
In September, Ooni welcomed Queen Mariam into his palace as his first wife. Then, Queen Elizabeth Ogunwusi was betrothed to him in Magodo, Lagos, a few days after his first marriage. Tobi Phillips was the third queen to be married to the monarch on October 9.
News reaching Glamtush has it that the Ooni is set to marry a 5th and 6th wife.
The incoming queens have been the King’s concubine before he married Queen Wuraola Otiti and Queen Noami Silekunola.
According to Kemi Ashefon’s blog, Princess Ronke, who is the soon-to-be 5th wife of the Ooni, has known the King before he ascended the throne in 2015.
The London-trained lawyer is a very well-known entrepreneur who shuttled between the UK and Nigeria. Ronke is the founder of the popular fashion showcase platforms, the AFWN & AFWL franchises. As a prince then, the now Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi’s company, was one of the major sponsors of the ‘Africa Fashion Week Nigeria’ the fashion showcase platform founded by Princess Ronke Ademiluyi, who is a single mother of one. As a princess in Ile Ife, Ronke’s great-grandfather was Ooni Ademiluyi Ajagun.
Moreover, she is in charge of the Queen Moremi Initiative; a global ambassador and founder of the Adire Odua. Her wedding to the Ooni comes up three days after his 48th birthday on October 17.
Princess Temitope Adesegun, the alleged 6th wife of the Ooni, could be described as an achiever. She worked as the Personal Assistant to the late Secretary to the State Government, Princess Aderenle Adeniran-Ogunsanya during the Babatunde Raji Fashola-led administration.
Adesegun was once married but divorced. She is actually based in Lagos and a director of Hope Alive Initiative Poverty Alleviation Advocacy which is powered by the House of Odua inspired by the Ooni.
Her marriage to the Ooni comes up a few days after Ronke Ademiluyi’s.
