Pictures of the children of Nigerian movie star Funke Akindele Bello and her husband Abdulrasheed Bello, aka JJC Skillz, have been exposed online.

Mella, JJC’s ex-wife splashed the picture of the couple and their twin boys, whom the couple had hitherto shielded away from public glare, on social media via her Instagram handle @snoop_mummy.

“If you don’t want me to expose your family then don’t expose mine. Funke and Abdul Bello,” Mella captioned the exposé post.

The unveiling comes after Benito, the son she has with JJC, took to his TikTok to accuse Funke of being a horrible person who is not who she claims to be on social media, adding that it was horror, living in their house in Amen estate, for two years.

His report came at a time when rumours of a crises in their marriage was making rounds all over social media and JJC had to debunk the claims.

Funke had two weeks ago in an interview with TVC said she had no intention of exposing her children to the Showbiz world.

“Okay, the children’s face, is that what you’re trying to say? No. When they’re old enough, they should show their face. If they want to, they should show their face,” Funke told her interviewers. “But for now, I don’t want them to show their faces. I want them to have their life, and enjoy it. Their dad and I are already in the public eye.”

“They are children, don’t forget. They are children. They’re vulnerable so you have to just keep them away, keep them safe. Let them go to school, let them enjoy their life without “Ah! That’s Jenifa’s son. That’s JJC’s son. Ah see his leg, see his face.” Leave them private!” the Jenifa’s Diary star stressed.
