Their anniversary celebration comes eight years after the actors exchanged marital vows on November 11, 2018, in a ceremony attended by family members, friends and colleagues in the entertainment industry.

The couple’s relationship attracted attention partly because of their shared appearance on the popular television series Tinsel, where they played characters whose on-screen relationship helped bring them closer.

Their love story began through their association with the production, where Suleiman played Damini White while Ejiofor portrayed Bimpe Adekoya.

Over the years, both actors have regularly celebrated their relationship on social media, sharing affectionate messages that offer glimpses into their marriage and family life.

During their sixth wedding anniversary in 2024, Ejiofor expressed gratitude for their relationship, describing their marriage as something she had prayed for.

“I would pick you every single time. No hesitation, no second thoughts, no ifs or buts,” she wrote.

She also acknowledged that their relationship had experienced disagreements and challenging moments but maintained that she would continue choosing her husband.

“I still choose you, on the days you’re annoying, on the days we have misunderstandings, on the days we struggle to understand each other. Because these days are so few and far between, I know that what we have is different and rare. I will always choose you,” she added.

Suleiman also marked the occasion with a tribute to his wife, describing their relationship as a union strengthened by faith, understanding and love.

The actors welcomed their first child, a son named Keon, in July 2020, two years after their wedding.

Suleiman announced their son’s arrival at the time with the words, “And then we were three… thank you Father. Your word has indeed become flesh.”

Ejiofor is known for her performances in The Meeting, Chief Daddy and The Serpent’s Gift, while Suleiman has featured in several television and film productions.

In June 2026, Ejiofor made history at the Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards, becoming the first actor to win both Best Lead Actress and Best Supporting Actress in the same edition.
