They say long distance relationships*is not for the fearful but for Puerto Rico
based American Kenny Rodriguez, being married to actress Uche Jumbo is nothing
to be afraid of. “I don’t consider it long distance because whenever she has
nothing doing as regards film production in Nigeria; she is definitely with
me,” he was recently quoted during his visit to Nigeria to attend his wife’s
movie premier of ‘My Life My Damage.’ Rodriguez who for the first time spoke
publicly about his marriage which happened in a very private ceremony described
Jumbo as*beautiful, gorgeous, loving, caring, amiable and a good cook.
He said her smiles is what keeps him
going.*”I’m always happy whenever she is around me.” On how the union came to
be, Rodriguez said: “It was really fun because we got to know each other
through a friend who happens to be a business partner but it took some few
months and persuasion before she finally agreed to marry me because I told her
point-blank that I want to marry her and all. She paused and never said
anything. Then there was this time we both went on jet skiing, one thing led to
another and she said she was going to kill me because it took a little distance
before we could get to the boat; so I told her if you want to kill me then
marry me because that will make it a bit easier and the rest is history now.”
“Let me just say we are both lucky to have each other. Uche is not just an
actress, she doubles as my better half, I don’t want to use the word lucky
because we both liked and loved each other and also saw that we could
strengthen our affair so we got married which we both are happy about.
