“I fell out of love because of his family” – Angela Okorie opens up on her marriage crash
Popular Nollywood actress, Angela Okorie pours out her heart on what actually drove her marriage with Chukwuma Orizu to its unplanned crash.
Okorie disclosed these details in a recent podcast interview hosted by her fellow colleague, Iyabo Ojo.
The mother of one revealed that she grew weary of the marriage due to constant pressure from her husband’s family.
According to Angel Okorie, the pressure on her to quit acting in the movie industry made her fall out of love for her whom she described as a good man.
In her words;
“I won’t advise anybody to be in a marriage when you’re not in love with the man. I think that’s the reason a lot of women cheat. In this Lekki, you have too many women who cheat in their marriages.
“For me, I fell out of love. The man [my ex-husband] was a good man. I fell out of love because of what his family was doing. The family didn’t want me to continue acting. They didn’t want me to do anything acting. They were like, ‘If we are going to marry you, you’ll stop doing entertainment.’ And I will be like, ‘Even my mum can’t even stop me. That is my life. Do you know how many years it took me?’
“He [my ex-husband] was in support of me. He doesn’t even stress me but because of the whole saga, it was like I was in a place where the people didn’t even understand my vision. They don’t understand what I’m chasing. You need to chase it with me. This is what your wife wants. You can’t kill my dream. This is what I’ve worked for so many years to get here. So, you can’t just wake up and say, “Because you want to marry me, give up on my dreams.”
