Data Okorodudu, the fashion maven, who many would credit with much of the recognition the Nigerian fashion industry is enjoying today, appears to have finally come off her grief, as she was also seen at the restaurant.

She seems to have come to terms with her status as a widow, learning to bloom, in spite of the gloom that rocked her life with the death of her husband, Jaye, who was chairman of Adata Groups.

The brain behind JD7 Couture lost her husband to leukemia in 2012, causing a void that took the shine off her bright and spritely disposition and forcing her to recoil into her shell.

But pretty Data has chosen to shed her garment of distress and embrace a positive attitude to life again. She had lamented her spouse’s death, saying: “The experience of losing a loving husband is a difficult one. My husband and I weren’t just husband and wife; we were close friends too.”

Happily, she is getting her groove back and said life after Jaye’s death has been a very busy one, saying: “I’m getting back, though it takes a lot of hardwork.”
