Why Ini Edo’s Marriage Crashed
A recent story making
the rounds in the entertainment clan has it that the marriage between star actress Ini Edo and her husband Philip Ehiagwina has broken down irretrievably.
According to the story right from the on set, their marriage was riddled with controversy as her estranged hubby, Philip had recently walked out of an- other marriage before he got hooked to Ini Edo.
It was gathered that their courting was quite messy with Philip’s ex-wife threatening fire and brimstone. She finally but not without throwing a lot of ill wishes between her ex-hubby and Ini Edo.
Among some of the accusations the A-List actress levelled against Philip is his “ordinary status”. According to her, Philip is an ordinary sales man, working for some one and gets paid a few dollars monthly. He has been deceiving girls all over the place, making them believe that he has heaven and earth, but in truth I am the person taking care of all his responsibilities which he abandoned here in New York.
She alleged that Philip has put her through hell, took away her only unborn child by causing her to have a miscarriage at 3 months.
Ini lamented that her hubby worked out of her life a week and few days after he got his green card.
Spearheaded by a girl who he wanted to get pregnant and when she questioned his proposal he came out open and confessed that he got married to me only to get American green card. His mistress in turn got her contact and told the actress everything, even set him up and got a video coverage of his confession and that is the proof Ini is using to make sure Philip goes to jail for his evil deeds.
It would be recalled that the duo of Ini and Philip had a star studded traditional marriage that shook the serene Akwa Ibom town on Saturday, November 29, 2008. It was a very special day for the Nollywood superstar as over 4000 guests and fans stormed her home town Awa Ian in Onna Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State. Few months after, an elaborate white wedding was held in USA where Philip is based.
Crisis loomed barely 2 years into the marriage with allegations that her US based husband has been living on the actress. It was also alleged that the actress was giving her husband family a major source of concern due to the actress inability to give Philip a child with other stories about her life style which the husband’s family frowned at severally were the issues that drew them apart.
Reacting to the marital crisis, the actress via her twitter handle said, “I asked for a divorce from my ex husband because of lots of irreconcilable differences. I never cheated on my husband.”
There are rumours also that her family has returned the pride price paid by her husband’s family
