For years fans asked Rita Dominic when she would marry. In 2022 she answered twice: a traditional wedding in Imo State in April and a white wedding at a stately home in Yorkshire in November.
A long wait
Rita Dominic has been one of Nollywood’s leading actresses and producers since the late 1990s. Her relationship with businessman Fidelis Anosike, founder of Folio Media Group, which publishes Daily Times Nigeria, became public in 2021.
Aboh Mbaise, April 2022
The traditional wedding took place on 19 April 2022 at her late father’s home in Aboh Mbaise, Imo State. Guests wore green and gold, and the bride wore looks by Tubo. It was a family day in her home community, and the photographs travelled fast.
Carlton Towers, November 2022
On 26 November 2022 the couple held a white wedding at Carlton Towers, a historic estate in North Yorkshire, England. Kate Henshaw, Michelle Dede and Mo Abudu were among the guests. The two ceremonies, one rooted at home and one abroad, gave Nigerian fans two very different looks at the same couple.
