Toyin Abraham reveals why she calls husband Kola Ajeyemi the best thing to happen to her, and how he handles her career, critics, and more.
Toyin Abraham has once again given fans a glimpse into the kind of marriage many people quietly admire: supportive, direct, and deeply personal. In a fresh conversation, the Nollywood star said her husband, Kola Ajeyemi, is the “best thing” that ever happened to her, and the reason goes beyond romance.
What makes the story stand out is not just the praise, but the everyday influence behind it. Toyin revealed that Kola played a major role in helping her quit cigarettes, while also giving her room to remain fully herself.
The actress said her husband did not force her with harsh rules. Instead, he spoke to her in a way that made the message stay. According to her, he warned that if their son ever saw her smoking, that would change everything for their marriage.
That comment appears to have stuck. Toyin said it made her think differently about the habit and the example she wanted to set at home. She added that she still smokes vape occasionally, but cigarettes are now behind her.
Beyond the health conversation, Toyin’s bigger point was about freedom. She described Kola as someone who lets her shine and allows her to be herself without pressure.
That kind of praise feels especially relatable because it speaks to something many couples struggle with: love without control. For Toyin, support seems to mean encouragement, trust, and enough space to breathe.
This is not the first time the actress has spoken warmly about her husband. Her recent remarks fit a pattern of public affection that suggests their bond is still strong years after they got together.
Kola Ajeyemi, who has been in Nollywood since 1997 and is also known as “Awilo,” has long maintained a steady presence in the industry. His relationship with Toyin has often drawn attention, but the latest story puts the focus back on their family life rather than celebrity noise.
