Shade Ladipo, a media figure, has urged women to think carefully about changing their names after marriage, citing several reasons.
In her Instagram story, the popular media figure expressed her satisfaction with not having to change her name when she married.
She highlighted that she couldn’t simply change the name she had created into a brand over 20 years because she was married.
She recommended newlywed women not to rush to alter their names, particularly on official documents, emphasizing that there is plenty of time to do so.
In her words: “Do you want to know 1 thing I’m so happy I didn’t rush to when I was married? Changing my name How did I spend over 20yrs building the ‘Shadé Ladipo ‘brand to changing it overnight to another name? Some people see my father and say Oh you’re Shadé Ladipo’s Father Sis, you worked too hard to build your brand, don’t be too quick to change it especially on legal documents. Take your time, there’s no hurry I Promise you! #TeamHappiness”
