Sultry actress and mother of two, Iyabo Ojo is no doubt enjoying her best moments as an actress in the movie industry, especially in the Yoruba speaking movies. The actress who believes she has been able to handle her new marital life better than the former revealed that she now enjoys her new marriage because she has grown older and enjoys so much of affection and understanding from his husband now. Iyabo said she could not have asked for a better marriage than what she’s currently enjoying. Speaking with R at the one year anniversary of her Fespris beauty and spa in Lagos last Sunday, the actress admitted that her first marriage crashed because of her immaturity, but was quick to add that she had since grown up to correct mistakes that led to the break up. Elated Iyabo explained further that she had to walk out of her first marriage because it was becoming something that could affect the future of her children and career.
“It was not an easy decision but I had to take it because it was getting to a point that I was not finding fulfillment in the marriage, so I had to move on with my life”.
The crossover actress who got married to her first husband at 21 years-old said she never knew what marriage entailed when she embraced it at first and it was difficult for her to handle it very well. Though, she said it took her few years before finally falling in love again, she, however, disclosed that the decision has not only turned out to be a blessing to her family but also to her acting career.
“I went through a lot before falling in love again. I had to wait because I wanted to be sure it was the right move. My kids are growing up and I don’t want to tell them stories that touch the heart. My man has been a blessing to us all. I am happy that I made the right decision. My career is on point and you can see what I have done in the last two years. Those things would not have been successful if my man didn’t stand by me”, she said.
Speaking on the success of Fespris world, Iyabo said her dream has come true in the last one year and would not relent in making sure her spa business grows bigger. “It started as a mini-mart and later I discovered I could make it bigger. I have always loved fashion and beauty, so when the opportunity to explore came, I embraced it”.
