Nollywood actor Olakunle 'Abounce' Fawole has opened up about his relationship with his ex-wife, actress Yvonne Jegede, stating that while he no longer loves her, he holds her in high honor as the mother of his son, Xavier. The couple married in 2017 but separated in 2019, citing irreconcilable differences.
No Ill Feelings Despite Past Remarks
In a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Abounce revealed that he harbors no negative thoughts toward Yvonne, despite the things she has said about him since their split. 'I would rather say everything was my fault, not because of anything but so that… I don't like the enmity of things. I don't want to see someone I have been with and then turn my face away. If I saw Yvonne now, why would I turn my face away?' he said.
Love Has Faded, But Honor Remains
When asked directly if he still loves Yvonne, Abounce responded with a firm 'No.' He added, however, that he honors her because she is the mother of his son. He emphasized his commitment to her safety, stating, 'If I am somewhere and Yvonne is in trouble, I would go as far as killing the person troubling Yvonne just to protect her.'
Background of Their Relationship
Abounce and Yvonne Jegede got married in 2017 and welcomed their son Xavier before parting ways in 2019. Since the separation, Yvonne has made several public statements about their relationship, but Abounce insists he holds no grudges. The interview with Chude Jideonwo has sparked widespread discussion among fans and followers of the Nollywood couple.
