Stephanie Okereke Linus Reflects on 14 Years of Private Bliss and Family Life

 Stephanie Okereke Linus, the celebrated Nollywood actress and filmmaker, recently opened up about her deeply private marriage to her husband, Linus Idahosa. The couple, who tied the knot in a serene and intimate ceremony in Paris back in 2012, have managed to keep much of their family life away from the public eye—a decision Stephanie describes as a source of peace and fulfillment.


Reflecting on her choice for privacy, Stephanie shared that her early life experiences taught her the value of shielding personal moments from public scrutiny. "My early life was tough, and I learned the hard way that not everyone should know your story. That’s why I keep my marriage and family life away from the public eye. It’s peaceful that way," she explained. Only a trusted inner circle, including her sibling and mother-in-law, are privy to the intimate details of her family life.


Now celebrating 14 beautiful years of marriage in 2025, the actress revealed for the first time a glimpse into her wedding memories. A pre-wedding video, which she recently shared, symbolized the quiet strength and enduring nature of their relationship. "It felt right," she said. "Just a little reminder that love, when protected, lasts."


Stephanie and Linus are proud parents of two children, whose lives are similarly kept out of the spotlight. The actress’s commitment to privacy has not only preserved the sanctity of her marriage but also served as a testament to the power of safeguarding love from external pressures.


As fans celebrate her milestone anniversary, Stephanie's story serves as an inspiring reminder of the strength that comes with protecting one's peace and cherishing the moments that matter most.

TALKING AMAA AND NOLLYWOOD ON RUBBIN' MINDS LIVE TALK SHOW

By Niyi Tabiti

Chief Reporter





Redstrat, the producers of Rubbin' Minds, one of the hottest youth talk shows in Nigeria made me a ‘celebrity’ on Sunday 11 May 2008.I was invited to be part of their live programme on Channels Television in Lagos, Nigeria. They also invited Nollywood star actress Stephanie Okereke, Actor/film maker, Kunle Afolayan and Chika Chukwu of Fuji House of commotion fame.
Chude Jideonwo and Emilia Asim-Ita hosted the show, while the third director of Redstrat Adebola Williams was behind camera. We were asked to talk about what we thing generally of the last Africa Movie Academy Award (AMAA).We also talked about challenges of Nollywood and what has improved to date.
Most of the speakers agreed that the AMAA got into hitches because of the last minute changes. People should not just see the bad side; there is also a good side to the change in venue. Speakers and most people that phoned in also agreed that Nigerian movie makers should do more research and training.Kunle said movie makers should tap into the corporate world for support.He said people can give some minutes of endorsement in their movies or seek sponsorship for the screening of their films. He did same for his yet to be released movie, IRAPADA and it worked.Kunle is one of the sons of late actor and film maker,Adeyemi Afolayan oterwise known as Ade Love.Kunle's film is one of Nigeria's finest so far.Already, he has been winning awards with it.He also had a screening in UK and Silverbird Galleria sometime back.He told me after the show that it would be released soon.

Stephanie and Chika shared Kunle's opinion.They also said training and re-training is the key.Stephanie Oscars or Hollywood did not get there in a day but if we must achieve greatness in what we do all hands must be on deck.

I supported what they all said and added that most Nigerian movie makers are not bold enough to do a media preview of their work before release because they are not confident of it. I also said that from the little I know about Nollywood, they should stop acting a whole movie in two or three days. It creates rooms for mistakes. I am tired of hearing that Nigeria is the third largest movie producng Nation in the world.Lets talk quality and not quantity

For instance, you see someone doing a flash back of 1928 and also wearing the same cloth he wore at that time in 2008.We all laughed over it but the message was passed.anyways, it was nice rubbin' minds with all of them.Another one was when an actor was shown to have died in a movie after falling off a three storey building without bruises.Is that possible?

Haba!Let me borrow the words of Ayo Animashaun, "change must change!"
If you have ideas and ready to bring change to Nollywood, don't fold your arms...just do it!

HOW BLOGGERS RE-SHAPED NOLLYWOOD'S WARDROBE!

By Niyi Tabiti

Pre-2008 was a period when little attention was given to style in Nigeria movie industry.

Gistmaster brought so much focus on that aspect because glamour is the wheel balance of a true celebrity.

So proud that gistmaster.com and other bloggers gave it a try and it worked. We can say that has helped our stars get their wardrobe right though some still make avoidable mistakes.

Then, Ini Edo was always the worst hit of commenters. (click here to see voters comments on best dressed actress in nollywood) .

For the first time , Gistmaster decided that it was time to recognize 'Miss Stylish' in Nollywood. Most of our readers and celebrities that voted said Rita Dominic deserved it and we had no choice.(Click here to see the party we hosted in honour of Rita Dominic at Swe Bar

Ini Edo is one of the sexiest in nollywood and now she is ranking high on the most fashionable list. Congrats to the stylist who is doing a great job.  Kate..hmmm... always looking young and sexy. I was in company of a German journalist to see Kate Hensahw one day and he said Kate couldnt have been more than 26 years, we all laughed. About a year later, Kate celebrated her 40th birthday at Civic Centre, Lagos. (Click here to see photos of Kate Henshaw the day she won Nollywood's actress of the year) . The fashion police have been kind to Kate.

Stephanie Okereke is a darling. To me she is symbol of a true nollywood star on the red carpet. Well, I am not suprised. What do u expect of a model and a former beauty pageant contestant? She is always well put together with her alluring smile. Fashion Police have also been kind to the engaged actress.

Susan Peters has logged into the big league with her look. She was a model before joing nollywood so we are not suprised that the Benue State born actress is doing well in that aspect.
