“My Wife Was My First Girlfriend” – Johnny Drille Makes Shocking Revelation

Johnny Drille, a popular Nigerian singer, has made a shocking revelation that Rima Tahini, his wife, was his first girlfriend.

The marriage of Johnny Drille, a signed musician, and Rima Tahini, an A&R executive at Mavin Records, was announced by Don Jazzy, CEO of Mavin Records, in July. This information came to light one year after the couple’s secret nuptials.

During a recent podcast interview with actress Iyabo Ojo, the singer disclosed that his wife was his first girlfriend and described their relationship as love at first sight.

Speaking on how they met at one of his shows, Johnny Drille stated; “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 [Rima] 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”.
