Nollywood actress Iniobong Edo has revealed that marriage is no longer a priority, as it’s not part of her current prayers or hopes. During an interview in Lagos on Wednesday, the actress shared this exclusively with TIMES.

The 42-year-old married Nigerian-American businessman Philip Ehiagwina on 29 November 2008 in the United States, but their marriage ended in divorce in 2014.

Raising hopes in September, Ini sparked excitement and rumours online when she shared what looked like a wedding announcement. Wearing a traditional Efik bridal outfit in the post, many thought she was engaged and getting ready for her wedding. Her caption, which talked about love and encouraged her followers not to lose hope in finding happiness, added to the speculation.

However, what seemed like a personal life event was a clever promotion for her four-part series, ‘My Fairytale Wedding,’ which tells the story of a young lady who, with the help of magic (Kayanmata), bags the most eligible bachelor in Lagos. Despite the initial stir, fans soon realised the post was about the show, not her real life.

But, in a frank conversation with this newspaper, when asked if she was looking forward to a real fairytale wedding in the future, the actress clarified, I’m not crazy about marriage; I’m crazy about having a solid relationship. I’m not hoping, and it’s not any of my prayer points.”

She also reflected on the changing landscape of Nollywood, where women have increasingly taken centre stage. She acknowledged the contributions of female filmmakers like Bolanle Austen-Peters, Funke Akindele, and Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, emphasising that women are now dominating the industry.

Ini began her film career in 2000 and stated, “Females own the industry right now. Women have taken their rightful place, and we have equal rights, so the playing field is open to men and women. Women are driven; they will if they want to achieve something.”

One can have a fulfilled life with or without marriage.

Just like she said there are solid relationships that can give one satisfaction in life.


Watch people who are yet to figure out their lives jump in here to advise her about old age.

Ini Edo... this ur claim nor valid.

D plausible explanation to ur singlehood, is because no one wants to wife you. Or maybe u look down on people or they observed your character ..


It is every woman's dream to get married and have a partner(husband) for life.

Or is ur own spiritual?

Nowadays, people marry at 58. She go dey all right, last last. If she attempted the institution before, no mongrel here should say shit. Where I will gladly call a woman an olosho is in Genevieve’s case. It’s better to go in, taste and fail than never attempt in the first place.

A woman's value is tied to her beauty and fertility.
A sexually experienced/exposed woman is a LovePeddler that men don't have long term plan for.
Na object of sexual gratification.
Onlyfans model.
Reason why most female celebrities are not in a long-term relationship.
