Veteran Nollywoood Actress, Ngozi Nwosu has shared her opinions on infidelity and domestic violence in marriages and that infidelity shouldn’t be a deal-breaker.
She, however, said that physical assault is a non-negotiable reason to leave a relationship.
She shared her personal experience, revealing that she canceled her wedding due to battery.
She recounted being physically assaulted by her ex-partner while pregnant, leading her to prioritise her safety and career.
Ngozi said: “I had to choose between my profession and to marry a guy, and I chose my job. He gave me an option, and I chose my job.
“At one point, I regretted that decision, but after that, I was like, ‘Oh wow, thank god I chose my path’.
“I didn’t talk about it to the press; this is the first time I am saying it. I left him because of the battery. For me, infidelity, yes, but it isn’t enough for you to let go of your man. But, if it’s battery, I advise any woman to, in fact, not take any of their property and run for your life because they will never stop. Once a man lifts his hand on you, he won’t stop.
“For me, infidelity, yes. But it’s not really enough for you to let go of your man. I called off my wedding two days before because that day, he gave me a beating of my life. I was pregnant then, and I was like, is this what I’m entering? Because he has never done it before.”
