The sultry actress cum singer, who became very popular in Nigeria when a story broke that she and actress Genevieve Nnaji were lovers, is in the news again. The story made such a great fuss even Potpourri couldn’t ignore it and sought after her to get an interview which they got.
The Chocolat Baby crooner is back in the news again, not about any homos*xuality saga but as a distress wife about to call it quits with her husband of many years.
In a private chat with Potpourri days ago, she opened up on a lot of things. First, she said she is tired of her marriage and wanted out. But why?
We never even knew she was married or not. The controversial lady said:
“I have been married a long time but most people don’t see me as a married woman because I have been living apart from my husband for years now. My husband is German and we are legally married. We married when I was 14 years old. By the time I was 21 I was already tired with the marriage and I guess so was my husband. Both of us have been living separately for years now.”
She added, “I ran away from my parents so early and got myself hooked to my husband. I must tell you my parents are Yoruba. My dad’s name is Olayinka Martins while my mum’s name is Fagbemi Oulematou. But I grew up in Abidjan, Cote de Ivoire and France.”
Ella has dated some rich men in the past but none of them were ready to marry her. She said she is hoping to meet a man who will love her for real and settle down.
