Ngozi Ezeonu Speaks on Divorce, Parenthood, and Guiding Her Children Toward Lasting Love
Veteran Nollywood actress Ngozi Ezeonu has opened up in a deeply personal reflection, speaking candidly about her experience with divorce and the lessons she's determined to pass on to her children.
“I’m divorced. But I don’t ever want any of my children to be divorced,” she said. “Divorce is something I never wished for or ever planned. It happened to me, and it was one of the most painful experiences of my life.”
Ezeonu, known for her iconic motherly roles on screen, stepped into that same role in real life offering heartfelt wisdom to her children about love, commitment, and the realities of marriage. Her message is not one of bitterness, but of hope, prayer, and hard-earned understanding.
She recalled a recent conversation with her son that stirred both emotion and maternal instinct: “When my son told me, ‘Mommy, I found a wife. She’s from another country and I met her online,’ I told him, ‘You can meet a wife anywhere, you can marry from other countries, but pray about it and be certain she’s the one. Don’t rush into marriage and rush out. If you know she’s the one, let’s go and bring her home.’”
Her words reflect a powerful truth often overlooked in today’s fast-paced world of digital romance and instant gratification: **marriage is not a destination, but a lifelong journey requiring thought, faith, and commitment.
“I’ve been through it, and I know how hard it is,” Ezeonu said, her voice marked by both pain and strength. “So as a mother, I’ll keep guiding them and praying they get it right, because I want them to enjoy the peace I never had in marriage.”
In sharing her story, Ngozi Ezeonu joins a growing chorus of women in the public eye who are speaking out about the realities of relationships not from a place of regret, but from a place of healing and wisdom. Her experience serves as both a cautionary tale and a loving roadmap for the next generation.
Her message is clear: learn from the past, seek guidance, don’t rush love and most importantly, pray for peace before saying 'I do.'
