Renowned Nollywood actress Ayo Adesanya has opened up about one of the major reasons she stepped away from filmmaking.
In an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo on the With Chude YouTube channel, she revealed that her ex-husband’s controlling behavior affected her career. According to her, he would break her phone whenever a male colleague called, and over time, some actors stopped inviting her for movie roles due to the situation.
In her statement, she said, “My husband restricted me to the extent that I cannot even speak to people without his permission. It got to a point that even when my colleagues called me for jobs, he always questioned me. I stopped acting movies because anytime men call me, my husband always break my phone. Some actors stopped inviting me for movie roles, and whenever my colleagues call me on the phone, my husband always tell them that I’m not available.
