Single Mum, Damilola Adegbite Tells Why She Won’t Be Giving Marriage Another Shot Anytime Soon
Nollywood actress and mum-of-one, Damilola Adegbite, whose marriage to Ghanaian actor, Chris Attoh hit the rocks a few years ago, has said why she won’t be remarry anytime soon.
In a recent interview with BBC Pidgin, the ex-Tinsel star said people had urged her to get married and she had followed their advice, but it ended badly. She says despite her divorce, one would expect that people would give her some space over the whole marriage thing, but she says they still urge her on to consider marriage a second time.
“These people won’t let me rest. I was advised to settle down, I tried it and it didn’t work out.
I had thought that after my failed marriage, people would let me be. But I goofed. They are still on this marriage case.
Everyone should learn to mind their business, there are other things going on around the world at the moment.
Let that love wait (laughs). Life at 34, it is so sweet. As I get older, I’m becoming fresher and aging backwards. I pity anybody that wants to pay my dowry and marry me now. You would have to sweat it out. But surely enjoy it all.”
She gushed.

Asked if she reached out to her former husband over the loss of Jennifer Bettie, his wife, Adegbite, who has a son for Chris Attoh before they parted ways, said:
“Why not? He’s my son’s father, so I just had to. I don’t have a choice. I believe that whatever happened between us was destined to be. On this particular issue, someone’s life was involved, so, it’s very sensitive. No matter what happened between us, it is not good to wish someone dead. Chris was part of my life, so why won’t I reach out to him?”
On how much her dowry will cost if she considered getting married a second time, the 34-year-old mum replied jokingly that whoever wants to marry her would sweat but teased that he would enjoy sweating.
