Linda Ejiofor, Ibrahim Suleiman & 3 other "Tinsel" couples who married in real life

Linda Ejiofor and Ibrahim Suleiman of "Tinsel" have tied the knot. Here are three couples from the TV show who walked down the aisle before them!

The actress first teases us with information of the upcoming wedding only one week ago as she post photos of herself and a veiled man, adding the caption “Approved” and a bunch of heart emojis.

But it did not take long for the groom to be recognized though.

Shortly after Linda’s photos were up on her Instagram, fellow Tinsel actor, Ibrahim Suleiman also took to his Instagram page where he posted some loved-up photos and cute words to boot.

Unlike, his bride-to-be [at the time], there is no veiling.

The couple have now tied the knot in one beautiful garden ceremony that we're absolutely in awe of. What's more beautiful is that their wedding makes them the the fourth Tinsel couple to do so.

Below, we list the other three couples to have gone on from the screen to the aisle since the TV series first aired in 2008.

Iyke Okechuckwu and Florence Uwaleke

The actors who play ‘Chuks’ and ‘Ene’ respectively are the first couple to tie the knot off the show. Their 2013 wedding has seen them go on to live happily ever so far. They had their first baby, a girl, in 2014. The second, a lovely baby boyarrived in August 2016.
