- Toyosi Adesanya has shed the light on her marriage which lasted 15 long years.
- The actress in a recent interview with her younger colleague, Bimpe Akintunde better known as Wasila Coded shared how though her marriage was and all she went through to keep it going, yet failed.
Nollywood actress Toyosi Adesanya has shared harrowing details about her marriage and an alleged attempt on her life.
In an emotional interview with her colleague, Bimpe Akintunde on the YouTube show Iriri Mi, Toyosi recounted the challenges she endured in her 15-year marriage and the lengths she went to save it, despite her stardom.
Toyosi Adesanya revealed that her efforts to sustain her marriage included relocating from Lagos to Akure, a decision she believed would balance her career and family life.
She even travelled abroad at her own expense to salvage her relationship when her husband relocated. However, the actress alleged that malevolent forces infiltrated her marriage, leading to its eventual breakdown.
The most shocking revelation came when Toyosi recounted an alleged assassination attempt. She claimed that her life was saved miraculously, but someone else died in her place.
Bimpe Akintunde, who visited Toyosi during her marriage, corroborated some of the struggles, recalling meeting her colleague fetching water, a stark contrast to her celebrity status.
In Toyosi Adesanya’s words:
“For me, I wish to be married. For someone like me, I’ve been in a marriage and people were asking me how I would cope with stardom. I left Lagos for Akure, which is a four-hour journey, but I was determined it wouldn’t affect my stardom. I made all that sacrifice in that marriage.
“I really put in an effort in my marriage. I was married for 15 years. I tried so much in my marriage that the elder in the industry knew I did. The person I married didn’t offend me, but he allowed the devil into the marriage. The house that I built with him, I left it for him because my life is important.
“When he left me to go abroad, I went to meet him there and even used my money to transport myself there because I wanted to make my marriage work.
“The man that I am currently with, I told him I am not going to get married because I will have one wedding in life because it was a court wedding.
Bimpe Akintunde knew of my court wedding as she attended it in Akure. Anytime she came to visit, she would bring foodstuffs for me and encourage me to stay in the marriage. We were fetching water in the first house we acquired. She said I was now fetching water and I said God will perform miracles. I would be praying for my husband in the presence of my present husband.
The senior actors I usually go to the prayer mountain with came to my house in Akure and told me that there were some items planted in some designated places in my home and prayed against my corpse being taken out of the house”.
