Ooni of Ife Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi on Saturday stepped out in public with his new wife Mariam for the first time since they got married.
The pair attended the annual Olojo Festival in Ile-Ife, Osun State.
The new Yeyeluwa of Ife was dressed in all white like her husband, and was seen speaking with the royal father as different groups paid homage to the Ooni during the ceremony.
Also present at the event were the minister of interior, Rauf Aregbesola; Osun State Deputy Governor, Benedict Alabi among others.
The new queen, an oil and gas executive, was welcomed into the palace on September 6.
