The actress recently had a baby in Canada and was bashed by many who felt it was ‘bad’ for her to have a child outside wedlock. But in an exclusive chat with Saturday Beats, the actress gave reasons why she did not get married to the father of her child.
.

She said: “I did not marry the father of my child because he is not my husband and he is not meant to be. I could have been in the most useless relationship right now if I wanted but I told myself instead of giving my son this shameless pretender and liar of a man as a father, I would take care of him and he will be fine.
.
.
I tell you that since I took that stance, I’ve not looked back for one day and God keeps giving me the strength to move on. If it is God’s, one day a good man will come and you’ll be invited to my wedding but for now, I’m single and all that matters to me is my son.”

Reacting to the backlash she received after welcoming her baby, she said: “I didn’t feel bad because we are all entitled to our opinions. Most people don’t know what other people go through but they are fast to bury them.
.
.
We all hide behind our beautiful make-up and clothes that people forget that we all cry sometimes. And the most painful part is that it is mostly women that do these criticisms.
.
.
Some are even going through worse situations but they come on social media, wearing make-up and fine clothes and start commenting but when they go home, their husbands would slap them for not cooking their food early, and they receive it with smiles, walk away and say I’m fighting for my man. Hypocrites!”
