Her marriage has always been in the news—their love unwaning.
Shade, reflecting on her love life which sprang up 19 years ago, says, “It wasn’t love at first sight because I was really young then. He didn’t pretend about the whole thing when he met me. He saw and liked me and said he wanted to marry me. I liked him as a person and he was really generous to a fault and really caring. My husband is full of fun and loving. Never a dull moment being with him. My advice to young ladies is to pray to God to lead them to the love of their heart.”
The union is blessed with four children.
