From Reality TV to Real Love: Elizabeth John & Yomi Black Wed

Bridal entrepreneur Elizabeth John and Creative professional (photographer/radio & TV presenter/video editor & producer) Yomi Black met on the set of pioneering Nigerian business reality show “The Intern” Season 2. The lovebirds were both contestants on the show and the sparks flew from there!
