It is not a new thing for a
woman to remarry. In fact, it happens everywhere . According to a recent post in the social media via Naij.com, these top Nollywood actresses are well known celebrities and super-Stars and the whole saga that surrounded them at the time of the said marriages were controversial.
Below are the list of top 5 Nollywood actresses who married other women’s husbands.
FUNKE AKINDELE
Popularly called ‘Jenifa’, the 39-year Old Ikorodu-born funny actress’s marriage to Mr Kehinde Oloyede can be said to be one of the shortest marriages in the history of Nollywood. Everyone, aside the actress knew the marriage was bound to end before it even started. A superstar in the Nigerian movie industry and a University of Lagos graduate, walking down the aisle with a man who already has about six children from three women?
Talking about how the union went awry, the ever funny actress said: “I was abused emotionally and verbally. Really, I felt we could work things out when the trouble started two months after the marriage, but I made up my mind and shut the door of the marriage at him when the trouble was coming to me too much. I stooped to conquer him, buried my fame and name to make him my husband, but it did not work.
Funke Akindele is however now back and better and we love that the girl power in her has continuously made her project ahead in her career.
INI EDO
Sultry actress Ini Edo got blogs buzzing when news came out that she was getting married in 2008 to her American-based hubby, Philips Ehiagwina. A yeat earlier, a woman Ruth, who was said to be Philips’ wife (as at that time) allegedly wrote an open letter to the actress, warning her to Streer clear of her husband. She also went further to reveal  how promiscuous her husband was, so she won’t end up being dejected and disappointed.
But the actress dismissed all these, discrediting the media for misrepresentation of facts. She got married to Mr Philips and the issue went from sweet to bitter in six years. Her family was said to have returned the bride price over irreconcilable differences. The beautiful actress who owns a massive N70 million mansion in Lekki is however doing well for herself and has put all her former marriage troubles behind her.
MERCY JOHNSON
In 2011, one Mrs Lovely Okojie sent out an open letter to Mercy Johnson to please release her husband and find a single man to marry. According to the woman, the man in question is the father of her two children and he was still legally married to her at the time. In her letter to Mercy Johnson she wrote thus: “My name is lovely Okojie, legal wife of Prince Odianosen Okojie, the man Mercy Johnson is set to wed in a few weeks. I was referred to you yo help me share my story after all else had failed to stop another woman from breaking my home. I used to have a sweet home, but now Mercy Johnson is trying to destroy it. I’ve not been able to stop crying or sleep well for the past few months.
“I’m appealing to the world and whoever knows her to please tell her to leave my husband alone. I’m married to this man and there has never been any divorce paper signed. We are still legally married, he’s the love of my life and the father of my two lovely kids. We got married back in 2006 in Regio-Emilia, Italy, attached are pictures of the wedding. At the moment, he’s busy in Nigeria planning to wed Mercy Johnson, abandoning me and our children fellow women is this fair? So with all the single guys out there, Mercy could not find her self one. How can a woman not care that she’s destroying the home of another woman, all in the name of getting married desperately. I’m in terrible pains. What do I tell my children?.
All these did not stop the wedding from taking place. Although it caused a bit of delay, the two lovebirds exchanged their vows at a Chris Embassy Church, Oregun, Lagos on Saturday, August 27, 2011, amidst tight security. They are still together, waxing stronger and have been blessed with kids.
NUELLA UJUBIGBO
Not many Nigerians knew Nuella until news went around that she broke her colleague’s home. The fast rising actress was however quick at discrediting the news that she was sleeping with ace Nollywood producer, Tchidi, Tchekere, Tchidi was married with 3 kids to Sophia Tchekere, another beautiful actress. The Oga producer later ended his six years marriage to Sophia and moved in with Nuella at a new apartment in Ajah. They have been blessed with a baby and they are still very much together.
STELLA DAMASUS-ABODERIN
This particular actress is on the list because of the kind of bad publicity she generates when it comes to men. Reports went viral that the beautiful actress and mother was harbouring another actress, Doris Simeon’s husband, Daniel Ademinokan, but she debunked it, calling it an absurd and senseless report.
Fast forward to few months or years later, the love birds are on our social media, professing love for each other, with the poor Doris Simeon living her life as it comes. Life has been shattered, Doris Simeon and Daniel Ademinokan had a kid, while Stella has three girls from her first husband.
