Is Femi Kuti and his
ex-wife, Funke back together?
This was the question on everyone’s lips at Tunde
and Wunmi Obe’s house party held at the Alausa, Ikeja mansion of the Obes.
According to sources
present at the T.W.O. Plus album listening party, the two estranged lovers
cuddled up, held hands, laughed, conversed and even posed for the camera in a
way typical of young lovers.
They enlivened the already
jolly atmosphere, with many wondering why the two have not reconsidered
rekindling the old flames that saw them tie the knot which later produced a
son, Made, now a big boy.
This is not the first time
the two will be photographed together in such ‘suggestive circumstances’
despite their strong insistence on being just friends. Recently at a concert in
Eko Hotels & Suites, the two unabashedly displayed affections for each
other, stuck to each other and whispered into each other’s ears as the concert
was on.
Funke has also been seen around
Femi at the Afrika Shrine several times and on one occasion sat on the Afrobeat
king’s laps unmindful of all eyes trailing them.
After a lovey-dovey turned
stormy marriage, Femi and Funke stayed apart for some years. In 2011, Femi
filed for divorce and a year later, they were officially divorced. But less
than a year after they parted ways, fans are beginning to assume the two are
not ready to let go of each other with their closeness, even with lovely
messages on social media.
While Funke has refused to
remarry or is associated with any serious relationship since she parted ways
with Femi, on the contrary, the Afrobeat king has had some liaisons with other
ladies with some kids to boot.
