Seasoned Nollywood actor Shaffy Bello, says she’s still open for marriage, even though her life doesn’t depend on it.
The 54-year-old sat down with Chude and spoke about the sacrifices she had to do for her career to flourish. She talks about the challenges she had to go through, like having to lose her mom, who died in her arms, and having to also leave her family abroad to return fully, to Nigeria.
According to her, she and her ex-husband separated 15 years after they married in 1995, because of distance and she wasn’t going to quit her acting career for marriage.
She reiterates that at 54, she is still open for marriage but makes it categorically clear that if any man wants to marry her, then he “must” double-up and be willing to take her across the world, as that’s all she wants to do now after her illustrious career.
“I can still do marriage but I have worked so hard to be where I am today. I am not sacrificing anything. I’m not some twenty-something or thirty-something woman. So at this stage, take me to Greece, I wanna go to Paris, take me traveling. I can do it for myself, so if you’re going to marry me, you’re going to have to double up. So will I still marry ? Yes. But you’ll have to be some heck of a guy to make me say I do again. If that doesn’t come along, Shaffy is doing well for herself” – she said.
