Nigerian comedian Bovi is earning praise online after his wife, Kris Asimonye, revealed why he encouraged her not to change her last name after marriage.
Sharing a striking photo of herself, Kris opened up about the early days of their union, saying the decision once confused her, but now makes perfect sense as she builds her personal brand.
“When I got married, my husband encouraged me not to change my last name. At the time, I did not fully understand why. Now that I’m building Kris Asimonye as a brand, I understand completely.”
Her revelation has sparked conversation online about identity, branding, and modern marriage.
The couple, who married in 2009, have built a strong family life together and are parents of three children. Last year, they celebrated 16 years of marriage with heartwarming family moments that delighted fans.
In past interviews, the comedian has shared his thoughts on relationships, saying lasting marriages often involve luck as much as planning, and that perfection comes from embracing imperfections.
Their love story has continued to capture public attention over the years, from birthday tributes to a memorable vow renewal ceremony on water that went viral and earned them playful nicknames online.
With Kris now fully embracing her name as a growing brand, many fans say the comedian’s advice was not just thoughtful, but visionary.
