“I have been stubborn about marriage, I will just have a child” – Lucy Edet gives up on marriage to become a baby mama, reveals real age

Popular Big Brother Naija reality star, Lucy Edet, shines more light on her intentions for marriage as she once again gives clarity on her real age.

The 31-year-old reality star who is currently single and without a child emphasizes giving up on marriage as she intends to opt for a baby mama.

According to Lucy Edet in an interview with Saturday Beats, the pressure of marriage does not bother her for a second.

“I am turning 32 in April. I have been very stubborn about it (marriage) and my mother has come to accept that marriage may not be for me. Perhaps, I will just have a child. She (mother) told me two days ago that I should just produce a child and I laughed.”

“Pressure for marriage isn’t for me because I am more concerned about connecting and living happily with the right person. Until I am able to build my life around that person, I don’t think I want to settle down.”

“If I feel pressured to get married, I could have done that since I used to be crazy about marriage; but not anymore,” she said.

Lucy, who has often been accused of reducing her age, insists on telling the truth, “People should leave me alone because it is my age and my choice. I feel it is society that has caused that because many people reduce their ages just to get jobs or to be accepted in the society. But, that has never made sense to me. I have always stuck with my real age.”

“I don’t see why someone’s thoughts about me should bother me. As long as you are speaking the truth, I won’t be angry about it. However, I have issues with people making up stories. I have heard so many things about me that shocked me.”

Speaking on her latest projects, the ex-BBNaija housemate stated, “I still run my grill business from home. Also, I have done a grill show which is yet to be aired. One the show, I grill for celebrities who give their honest opinion about it, and we have other conversations. I have done two movies so far and I am hoping to open a physical space for my business soon.”
