Bolanle, the actor’s first wife, died in December 2020.
Bolanle rose to prominence after appearing in various Christian films, particularly Mount Zion.
Doyin, best known for his part in the Mount Zion film Captives of the Mighty, spoke on his wife’s death in an Instagram live session in June 2021:
I am surviving. My wife was everything to me. She was an encourager. My wife passed on unexpectedly because she was not sick. We had been married for almost 10 years before her demise. If one has a spouse that is supportive of one’s vision and the person is very experienced in that field, it makes things a lot better. I am not talking about a wife that is submissive and supportive. I am talking about getting married to a forerunner in the field that one operates.
“If I was feeling lazy and could not pray, she was the one that usually pushed me. That is the kind of spouse everybody should aspire to have. When my wife died, I did not know I could survive it because I feel her presence all the time. When I think about her or remember the things she used to say, I begin to laugh alone. I had heard so many things about her before we got married but when we tied the knots, I realised that she was even holier than what I saw on the peripheral level.”
