Funke Akindele reunites with JJC Skillz in Paris

Nollywood actress and filmmaker Funke Akindele has sparked fresh interest among fans after she was spotted in Paris, France, with her former husband, Abdulrasheed Bello, popularly known as JJC Skillz.

The estranged couple are currently on a family holiday with their twin sons, with videos shared on social media showing them visiting different locations in the French capital.

JJC Skillz posted one of the clips on Snapchat on Wednesday, showing Akindele, their children and himself at what appeared to be a shopping centre. He captioned the video, “Family time.”

In another clip, he asked Akindele, “Mama Ibeji, are we playing games?” to which she responded, “Yess ooo.”

The former couple were also reportedly seen with their children at the Eiffel Tower.

Akindele later shared another video showing the family together at a PlayStation section of what appeared to be a Paris mall.

The family reunion comes after Akindele and her children travelled to the United Kingdom for a holiday following the completion of her latest cinema project, The Four.

Akindele and JJC Skillz married in London in 2016 and welcomed twin boys in 2018. Their marriage ended in 2022 when JJC Skillz announced their separation, citing “irreconcilable differences.”

Despite their separation, the two have continued to maintain a relationship around the upbringing of their children.

Their latest public appearance together is not the first time the former couple have been seen together since their separation. In 2023, they attended the Lagos premiere of She Must Be Obeyed, where they were filmed dancing and embracing. JJC Skillz directed the movie.

The Paris outing has since attracted attention online, with social media users focusing on the former couple’s reunion and their time together as a family.
