Olaide Olaogun’s marriage is over.
The TV presenter cum actress, came into limelight when she featured in Wale Adenuga’s Superstory series entitled, ‘Soul Sisters’. Later, she delved into movie-making and became a brand ambassador for Lux beauty soap, Diva hair extension, Fuman juice and UBA.
The actress dropped a message on Instagram insinuating it was over in her marriage, then crowned it up with a whatsapp message which reads;
”Leave and live. I got married to an abusive man! Physical and verbal abuse! And lots more that will be unveiled. I left him, filed for divorce but stupidly forgave him and went back believing his promises. He became worse! Now I finally freed myself from continous abuse! Hallelujah. (sic)
In an old interview, she revealed how marriage had slowed down her acting career.
On how she met her husband, Olaide recalled:
“One day, I was traveling to London and I was driving from the Island to the mainland. On the third mainland bridge, I had a flat tyre. I was thinking of what to do when I saw a man packed his car, alighted and walked towards me. Initially, I was afraid I had fallen victim of the armed robbers people talk about on the third mainland bridge. But he turned out to be a Good Samaritan. He did his best to ensure my flat tyre was fixed. Afterwards, we exchanged numbers and the friendship started. We dated for three years. Of course, he knew what he wanted and he never gave up on me. Here we are today.”
