She attended Queens College, Yaba Lagos. Having a passion for acting, she took part in the school drama society, serving as the vice president between 2001 and 2002. She also exhibited her acting talent in the church drama group as of then. Damilola Adegbite furthered her education at Bowen University Iwo, Ibadan, one of the leading private universities in Nigeria, where she obtained a degree in Business Administration.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>She Runs A Few Businesses On The Side<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s no doubt that Damilola Adegbite is a woman with multiple talents as she is also a businesswoman. Though she has made a name for herself in the entertainment world, she still ventured into the business world as well. She doesn&#8217;t just get described as an actress, model, TV personality, but also as a businesswoman because of her enterprise &#8211; Damiville and Kasham by Adedamme. The outfit deals on accessories, aromatherapy, and make-up products. It is situated in the highbrow area of Lagos State, Lekki.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Damilola Adegbite Was Previously Married To Chris Attoh<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The actress has been previously married to the Ghanian actor Chris Attoh. The two met on the movie set of <em>Tinsel<\/em>. The duo portrayed a lovey-dovey part on the scene that viewers thought was mere acting. It later became obvious that it was real when they got engaged to each other in August 2014. The pair welcomed a son named Brian Nii Ayittey Olaferomi Attoh. Not up to a year after their engagement, the Ghanian actor and his fiancee moved to Ghana to get hitched officially on February 14, 2015. The wedding was attended by mostly family and close friends as it was quite a private affair.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/media.ghgossip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/01165340\/BeFunky-collage-74-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1544&amp;ssl=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-70285 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/son.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"696\" height=\"419\" srcset=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/son.jpg 696w, https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/son-260x157.jpg 260w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Her Marriage To The Ghanian Actor Hit The Rock Few Years After Their Wedding<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Most celebrity marriages are not left without issues that result in separation, and Damilola Adegbite and her husband <a href=\"https:\/\/buzznigeria.com\/chris-attoh-bio-yvonne-damilola\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chris Attoh<\/a> are not left out. In September 2017, fans started speculating that the love birds were no more serving their couple goals. The speculations moved on until the actress deleted her spouse&#8217;s pictures, unfollowed him, and changed her surname from her husband to her previous surname on all her social media handles.<\/p>\n<p>These actions from the actress kept her fans awestruck till her husband Chris Attoh made an appearance in an interview to make their separation known to the public. While some pinned the reason for their divorce on infidelity, others said it was family differences regarding their different nationalities.<\/p>\n<p>Irrespective of why they separated, Chris still adored his wife and spoke highly of her. It, however, didn&#8217;t stop him from moving on to another woman while Dami appears to have remained single.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Damilola Adegbite Has Received Some Awards For Her Work<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The actress has won some awards for her exceptional acting skills. In 2011, she won the Nigerian Entertainment Award for the Best Actress in a TV series. In 2013, she was nominated for the 2013 ELOY Awards for the Film Actress Of The Year.
