Family, Sister
Yvonne’s family is such a large one. She is first in the basic family that is if you count mother, father, and their biological children. Even as a top renowned celebrity, Yvonne still lived with her very traditional conservative family with parents being strictly against their daughters living in separate houses while they are still unmarried. Yvonne has two adorable sisters who are barely seen. She is fond of her siblings who are as beautiful as she is.
The names of her two siblings are Roseline Okoro and Elizabeth Okoro. She also has three brothers namely Kenneth, Martin, and Raymond Okoro. Her sister Roseline had at a time contested for Miss Ghana. Even though she was unable to win, it was alleged that Yvonne spent quite some money campaigning for her sister to win the contest inviting criticism from rival contestants and the general public. Not much is known about the careers of her sisters but it is believed that the beautiful ladies of the Okoro family are well in their respective careers.
