Peter Okoye of P’Square and Lola Omotayo’s love story is compelling and amazing. The couple have been in a relationship for over eight years before they finally tied the knot on Sunday, November 17, 2013.
The duo met when Lola was a Business Development Director at FKG2m, a marketing agency in Lagos. Apparently, her agency manages some of British American Tobacco brands and P’Square was handling a show for her organization at one of their events in Enugu.

According to Lola, she had met Peter a couple of times before then and there was some “chemistry” between them.
Meanwhile, it will also interest you to know that Lola is seven years older than Peter, she was said to be in her 30s then while Peter was in his 20s.
She revealed her concerns about their age difference in this interview: “Like I said, Peter is an old soul and he always tells me that I’m like a 23-year-old. Age is just a number. Right now, you can see it around the world. Demi Moore, Usher and some known people. Even in Nigeria here, they are dating people far older than their age. So, we shouldn’t base it on the age factor. He doesn’t make me feel like he’s younger than me.”
However, Lola, who celebrated her 43rd birthday earlier this year, received a special gift from her celebrity husband. Peter got her a brand new Range Rover SUV worth N24million.
They are happily married and blessed with two beautiful children– Cameron and Aliona.
