‘I Lost Everything And Moved In With My Mother-in-Law’ – Actor Tito Harrison Tearfully Recounts Health Crisis, Praises Wife
Veteran Nollywood actor, Tito Harrison has opened up about a deeply painful chapter in his life that has rendered him homeless and nearly alone.
In an emotional interview on actress Biola Bayo’s Talk To B show, Harrison broke down in tears while sharing how illness not only took a toll on his health but also wiped out his finances and shook his career to the core.
According to him, the illness -liver disease and a chronic ulcer -left him bedridden and forced him to sell everything he once owned, including his house and cars.
He narrated how he and his family moved to a rented apartment after selling everything he owned. Eventually, he could no longer afford the rent and had to move in with his mother-in-law. In his words:
“I sold my house, car, and everything I had to pay hospital bills. After moving to a rented house, I couldn’t afford the rent anymore, so we had to stay at my mother-in-law’s place.”

Harrison stressed that in the darkest moments of his life, the one person who stood by him was his wife. He described her as his greatest blessing, recalling how she remained by his side even when others abandoned him.
“The luck I had was my wife. When I was battling with liver disease and a chronic ulcer, my wife stood by me when everybody left me. It is good to have a good wife. If I come to this world again, it is my wife I will marry,”
he said tearfully.

He also addressed the judgment he faced within the movie industry, recalling how some mocked his condition and ridiculed him in the media. He shared:
“Some people granted an interview saying, ‘It is finished for Tito Harrison, he’s now living with his mother-in-law.’ I have the testimony to that.
I didn’t throw away the magazine. Even if it had been so, if you can’t rally around me, you don’t vilify me or kill my reputation.”
