The daughter of veteran actor Jide Kosoko, who is also an actress and skit maker, Temilade Kosoko, was trending on social media few months ago about her supposed wedding. 

Nollywood Times even posted the picture as if it was real wedding unknown to many that it was just a prank.

She was trending because she posted wedding pictures and videos on her social media pages that suggested she was getting married. However, many of her fans and friends thought the pictures were from her actual wedding, and they sent her goodwill messages.

However, after gaining more than enough popularity through the post, the young actress later cleared the air that it was not a real wedding.

In an interview with our source, She said, “It made me have more followers, especially on Facebook. Before now, I had just a thousand followers on Facebook, and after the prank, I have 20,000 followers. People like ‘amebo’ (gossip).”

She also stated that there were some downsides to having a famous parent in the industry. She said, “Inasmuch as it is something to be proud of that my dad is a celebrity, it is also disturbing because some people pick on one because they think one is privileged. It is sad that some people see being poor as badge that they have to carry about. I get a lot of hate comments; people being jealous of me for no reason. And, I keep asking, ‘What did I do wrong’? I am a jovial person, but people think I am proud. Those are some of the challenges I face.”

Responding to the question regarding the first skit she featured in, she has this to say: “My first skit was with Mr Macaroni in 2021. It also featured another actor, Yomi Fash-Lanso. I was meant to travel to Abuja the next day to Abuja. But, Macaroni called me and said he wanted to feature me in a skit the next day. So, I cancelled my flight because I decided to look at the bigger picture. I was just going to Abuja to relax at my Aunty’s place. Meanwhile, being in the skit has added value to my career.”
