What is really going on in the young
marriage of record label owner, Ubi Franklin and actress, Lilian Esoro,
is the million-dollar question on the lips of many.
While the two dramatis personae in the
eye of the storm may want everybody to believe that all is well, it is
apparent that all is no longer at ease.
The estranged husband and wife were both
guests at comedian, Ali Baba’s January 1st Show, and they kept their
distance from each other. Sunday Scoop spotted Ubi
sitting with other guests at the VIP section looking forlorn, while
Lilian obviously had the time of her life with friends at the same VIP
section. Full of smiles, she took pictures with Tiwa Savage, Annie
Idibia and other guests which she splattered on her Instagram page.
It will be recalled that their union had
been rocky from the very start. It is believed that Lilian initially
did not want to marry Ubi, and she had indeed turned down his marriage
proposal at first, before she was pressured to accept. She had even
deleted her account on Instagram and went on hibernation before friends
in the industry prevailed on her to accept Ubi, advising her that love
usually grows when given a chance. This was amidst unconfirmed rumours
that Lilian’s heart was with a popular married comedian who she loved
deeply. According to whispers circulating in the entertainment industry,
Lilian is still in love with this comedian who is one of the most
prominent in the business at the moment. Even though he is married,
Lilian is said to be allegedly content being his side-fiddle than being
the First Lady in Ubi’s life.

However, with the arrival of their son,
Jayden in July 2016, many felt the couple had come to terms with their
marriage and were ready to continue living as man and wife. But this was
not to be.

According to Sunday Scoop’s
sources, Ubi is still interested in the marriage and he believes his
wife will come around, but Lilian practically sees herself as ‘single
and loving life.’

With recent developments, it is apparent that a chance of reconciliation between the duo is growing dimmer by the moment.
