Meraiah, daughter of Nollywood actress and filmmaker Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, has announced her engagement, sharing the news with fans in a black-and-white video of a beachside proposal.
Meraiah announced the engagement on Wednesday, posting clips that showed affectionate moments with her fiancé during the proposal. However, she chose to keep his identity private, revealing only parts of his face in the video.
The announcement has since sparked congratulatory messages from friends, family members and well-wishers, who took to the comment section to celebrate the latest milestone in her life.
Meraiah is one of Omotola’s four children with her husband, Captain Matthew Ekeinde. The actress has frequently shared glimpses of her family life with her followers, including special moments with her children.
In March, Meraiah surprised her mother at the Lagos premiere of Mother’s Love, Omotola’s directorial debut.
Meraiah had travelled to Nigeria without informing her mother that she would attend the premiere. Her surprise appearance became one of the memorable moments from the event and highlighted the close relationship she shares with the actress.
Mother’s Love also marked a significant milestone in Omotola’s career as she celebrated 30 years in Nollywood with her first feature film as a director.
The film explores motherhood and the sacrifices parents make for their children, themes that have a personal connection to Omotola’s life as a mother of four.
