Finally! Controversial actress, Uche Ogbodo opens up on why her marriage crashed

Ogbodo

To keen followers of events in Nollywood, it is no longer news that the few months old marriage of controversial Nollywood actress, Uche Ogbodo has crumbled like a pack of poorly arranged cards.

The big news is the fact that Ogbodo who just returned from the United States after the delivery of her baby girl, has finally opened up on why her topsy turvy marriage failed like that of many of her colleagues in tinsel town.
While stating her own side of the story, she vehemently denied the story that her marriage to the ex-Nigerian footballer, Ato Ubby hit the rocks because he had a brain tumour.
"My marriage was full of lies. I cannot tell you in details what those lies were, if that’s what you’re trying to make me do but it was based on lies. It’s a pity it didn’t work out. I didn’t go into the marriage to crash it. I wanted a family; I wanted a loving home and a loving husband. That was why I went into it in the first place but as nature would have it, I didn’t get any of those. I still thank God my head is intact. It’s not about women. Like I always say, you cannot build a home on sinking sand. You need to build a home on a rock, so the lies are my reasons."
She also denied the speculations that her estranged husband has brain tumour.
"He doesn’t have brain tumour. He was sick at the time, he had issues but his sickness was not the reason our marriage crashed. Money was not the issue either.   I would definitely know about his health status before I would marry a man. I knew what I was going into, so how could I just leave a man because he had a brain tumour? It’s funny.
He was sick, he was treated but it had nothing to do with the brain. He had surgery but it was not brain tumour, it was not cancer.”
That notwithstanding, the now single mother of one still plans to give marriage another shot anytime soon.
"I’ve left the doors open. I’m not going to close the door of marriage because one marriage didn’t work. The door is wide open. When I find someone that I’m going to be happy with but I wouldn’t want another experience where my marriage crashes because once beaten twice shy. So I’m going to take my time now and dig deep.
I’m only going to keep praying to God to give me someone who wouldn’t lie to me, someone that would be plain, very plain to me."
