JJC announces the end of his six-year marriage to Funke Akindele.

Rapper JJC Skillz, also known as Abdulrasheed Bello, has announced his divorce from actress Funke Akindele.

On Thursday morning, JJC made the announcement that his marriage to Akindele has been having problems for the past two years via his official Instagram account.

He said that Akindekle forced him to leave their house three months ago, and that since the Africa Magic Viewer's Choice Awards on May 14, he hasn't been able to sit down with her.

Dear Friends and Family, I must inform you that Funke and I have split up, the author wrote. We shared a lot of things while it lasted and had two gorgeous children as a result.

“The last two years have been extremely difficult for us. I know I have tried my best to fix things but I believe it is beyond repair now. months ago and at Funke’s insistence, I moved out of the house and apart from AMVCA have not been able to get Funke to sit down in an amicable manner to discuss the future of our relationship.”

In December 2018, Akindele and JJC welcomed a set of twins birthed in the United States. The children were kept away from the media with only their names revealed until the rapper’s ex-wife, Mello, who is the mother of his first son Benito, shared pictures of the twins on social media.

JJC noted that they were yet to discuss the custody of the children and the next step in their relationship and added that he chose to announce the separation so that the public could know they now lead separate lives.

"I'm announcing this so that everyone knows that we're both living separate lives. The custody of our children, which is of utmost importance, and the necessity to separate economic interests are among the issues that still need to be resolved, but I am confident that they will be resolved one way or another, he continued.

JJC was in the news earlier this year after Mello accused him of physically abusing their son Benito and provided evidence in the form of court records.
