Actress Opens Up About Marriage Collapse
Nigerian Yoruba film actress Biola Fowoshere has emotionally recounted the painful collapse of her marriage, revealing that she almost went mad after her husband suddenly left her and their children without any explanation. In a recent interview on African A List, the actress broke down in tears as she described the emotional struggles she endured following the abandonment.
Desperate for Answers
Fowoshere disclosed that despite her efforts to be a devoted wife and mother, her ex-husband walked away and cut off all contact. “The only person I’d really want to ask a question is my ex-husband. I’d really like to ask him what I did wrong because I did nothing before he left me and the kids. I want to ask what my children and I did to deserve what he did to us,” she said. The actress noted that she has not seen or spoken to him since the day he left, and he has also cut off communication with their children.
Severe Depression and Hospitalisation
The painful separation pushed Fowoshere into severe depression, leading to a prolonged hospital stay. “I spent one year and six months in the hospital battling depression after he left. I almost ran mad. We are not in contact. Since he left, we haven’t seen him. He blocked us seven years ago,” she added. The actress emphasised that her ex-husband has not seen or spoken to her or their children for seven years, leaving them to cope with the emotional scars of abandonment.
Previous Disturbing Experience
This is not the first time Fowoshere has shared a troubling personal story. In a previous interview, she recounted a disturbing experience with a movie sponsor who allegedly made an inappropriate demand. She explained that she travelled from Ibadan to Lagos after being promised financial support for a movie project, but the man instead demanded a sexual romp with her personal assistant. Fowoshere refused, leaving her stranded in Lagos.
Public Reaction
The actress’s candid account has sparked widespread reactions from fans and colleagues, with many expressing sympathy and support for her ordeal. Her story highlights the emotional and psychological toll that marital abandonment can have on individuals and families.
