Iyabo Ojo Applauded for Graceful Co-Parenting as She Dances with Ex-Husband at Daughter’s Wedding
In a heartwarming moment that has set social media abuzz, Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo and her ex-husband Ademidun Ojo were spotted dancing together in matching outfits at their daughter Priscilla Ojo’s traditional wedding ceremony on Thursday in Lagos. The symbolic appearance has drawn praise from fans and followers alike, who are applauding the actress for showing maturity, unity, and class despite their estranged relationship.
The wedding, which comes two months after the couple’s Islamic ceremony in Tanzania, had previously sparked online conversations. Many questioned the absence of Priscilla’s father in Tanzania, speculating a rift between father and daughter. Priscilla had since clarified that her father was present virtually, but Thursday’s appearance silenced critics and changed the narrative altogether.
💃 A United Front for Love
The moment Iyabo and Ademidun stepped out in coordinated traditional attire and shared the dance floor, it was more than just a celebration of their daughter’s love — it was a message of maturity, growth, and co-parenting at its finest. In a society where broken homes often lead to broken bonds, Iyabo Ojo showed what it means to put the child first, even in emotionally complex situations.
Online reactions poured in with admiration:
"She has changed the narrative. Well done Queen Mother," wrote a fan.
"Iyabo Ojo is such a good example," another added.
"The father of the bride is there — Facebook bloggers, come and see!" one user humorously jabbed at rumor mongers.
💬 Opinion: Healing in Public Can Be Powerful
Iyabo’s actions offer a refreshing reminder that public figures can set powerful examples, especially in matters of family. Instead of feeding into the drama often expected by the media and fans, she chose grace over grudges. By sharing this moment publicly, Iyabo not only redefined her own narrative but also uplifted the idea of peaceful co-parenting — something many families can take a cue from.
In a world where celebrity scandals often dominate headlines, it’s beautiful to see love — not just romantic, but familial and forgiving love — take center stage. Queen Mother, indeed. 👑
