Yomi Black, the Nigerian actor and filmmaker, and Elizabeth John, his ex-wife, have taken to social media to celebrate their 13th anniversary.
The duo tied the knot in April 2012 and welcomed their son in July 2015.
They first met on the set during the second edition of ‘The Intern’, Nigeria’s pioneer business reality TV show, and got along thereafter.
However, Elizabeth hinted at the end of their union in 2021 when she declared herself “finally a free woman”.
In a post via Instastory on Wednesday, Black marked what would have been their 13th wedding anniversary, describing it as “ex anniversary”.
He revealed that despite breaking up, they still maintain a cordial relationship.
“13 years ago! We broke up but still remain cordial. Happy ex anniversary…lol,” he wrote.
On her part, Elizabeth expressed surprise at the concept of “ex anniversary,” admitting she was unaware such a celebration existed.
She also wished Black well while praying for blessings in all his endeavors.
“Happy ex anniversary, Yomiblack,” she wrote via Instagram.
“I didn’t know this was a thing till you called to wish it to me and saw you posted it. God bless you and all your endeavours.”
