Several years after she divorced her first husband, actress Iyabo Ojo says she is ready to remarry.
Earlier in November, the actress, who starred in the Real Housewives of Lagos reality show, hinted at a possible relationship with a mystery lover on her Instagram page.
She credited him for her glowing skin and happiness, saying that an Igbo man had captured her heart.
In an Interview with PREMIUM TIMES at the ‘Palava’ movie premiere at The Jewel Aida, Lekki, on Sunday, the mother-of-two, confirmed she is in a relationship and would remarry.
The actress, whom Bimbo Akintola introduced to acting after she joined the Actor’s Guild of Nigeria in 1998, said, “Yes, I’m willing to give marriage a shot; yes, I am in love. There is an Igbo man in the corner stealing my heart away.”
Iyabo married Ademidun Ojo, a clearing and forwarding agent operating at Tincan Island, Lagos, in 1999, when she was 21 and took a break from pursuing her acting career almost immediately. She welcomed a son, Felix and then a daughter, Priscilla, in 1999 and 2001.
She divorced their father, who now lives in New Jersey, U.S., in 2001. She attributed the breakup of her first marriage to marrying at an early age.
When asked about her new lover’s identity, she refused to divulge that information.
Regarding the secret of her beauty, she said, “It’s God; I try to keep my soul happy, I try to keep my soul happy, work on my body, make sure that I do a love exercise, take a lot of water, you know and just take care of my skin. Everything that has to do with a beauty routine.”
Speaking on her projects, she said “Next year, Hopefully, we’re going to be back with the Real Housewives of Lagos, season two, we’re going to be filming that takes a lot of my time. But I also will be producing my movie. We’re trying to do “The return of Arinzo.”
