'I got married to my first girlfriend' - Johnny Drille reveals

Nigerian singer, John Ighodaro aka Johnny Drille, has revealed that his first love, Rima Tahini happened to be the woman he got married to.

Recall that Mavins Boss, Don Jazzy, disclosed in July that Johnny Drille, his signed artiste, and Rima Tahini, who is also an A&R executive with Mavin Records, had tied the knot.

It was later discovered the couple had even married a year before it was made public.

Speaking in a podcast interview with actress, Iyabo Ojo, Johnny stated that his wife was his first girlfriend.

He said: “The first time I saw her was at one of my shows in 2018. She was sitting in the front row next to a white woman. At some point, I thought both of them were white. She is mixed race.

“So, when I was working on another show in Abuja, we got talking. We met in October and by January, I knew I was going to marry her. And I told her I was going to marry her. For me, it was deep conviction.

"A lot of people will not believe this but she was my first girlfriend. I never had a girlfriend before her. I married the first woman that I said ‘I love you’ to.”
