She has grown to become Nollywood's super icon after giving 20years of her life to her acting career.
Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, is one actress who has continued to up her game and needs no further introduction as she is being recognised worldwide by Nigeria movie lovers.
The entertainer who remains pretty and sexy after four grown kids in a recent interview reveals what strengthens her marriage and the possibility that she might still be single, if she hadn't married Capt. Mattew Ekeinde.
"I don’t think I would be married by now, if I didn't marry early, because I don’t think there is any man that can handle me apart from my husband. Not because I am a bad person, it is because I am a very strong personality. I can understand why a lot of female artistes find it very difficult to find the right person.
When you achieve some kind of success, you become really confused as to who really loves you for who you are. It’s not really easy, it is very hard finding those people who really love you. If you are not a very grounded person, you can also contribute in some kind of way to your own problems and so I might have contributed to my own problems,' she said.
In the midst of the rising rate of divorce and separation of marriages in the entertainment industry, Omosexy, as she is fondly called confessed that it is indeed her decision to remain married.
"I am blessed, it’s a decision. It is a very intentional decision, but it’s not at the expense of anything. It’s because it’s natural. I am happy.
I am lucky that I am well trained by God, period! I don’t try,I am who I am. Some things that are scandalous just don’t impress me or I am not impressed by them. Having said that, I try not to do something that will seem like I’m leading someone on. I just try to put my brain to use. There are so many things you can avert."
The multiple brand ambassador doesn't mind if her 18-year old daughter follows her footstep by getting married early.
"I don’t care much about it. It’s not something I think about. It’s not my cup of tea. I know people want me to think about that because I got married early. What I always say to people is all fingers are not equal. The fact that I got married early doesn’t mean my daughter must get married early. My mother didn’t get married early. It doesn’t have to be hereditary.
If I like the guy and we feel like she is mature enough to handle it and the person is responsible, then why not? We can endorse it. I don’t regret anything. Everything is a blessing to me. I won’t stop her, but it just has to be the right person. I married the right person," she told Vanguard.
