Veteran Yoruba actress Tola Oladokun has opened up about her personal life, revealing the reasons behind her decision to move out of her husband’s house. Known for her emotional roles in Yoruba films, the actress shared her story in a candid interview, shedding light on a deeply personal choice.
Oladokun clarified that her decision was not due to conflict or crisis in her marriage, but rather a thoughtful and respectful move influenced by her husband’s polygamous lifestyle. She emphasized that the separation in living arrangements does not signify the end of their marriage or any serious marital issues.
In her conversation with Oyinmomo TV, Oladokun reflected on the challenges she faced as both a wife and an actress, especially at the start of her career. She also spoke about the societal bias often faced by women in the entertainment industry, noting the difficulties of balancing family life with the demands of her profession.
The actress explained that people often had bad opinions about women who worked in movies. Many people would make false claims about actresses, saying that women in the movie industry were not faithful to their husbands or had bad behavior.
The actress wanted to make sure people understood that she and her husband are still married. She pointed out that she continues to use his family name, which shows that there is no official separation or divorce between them.
She explained their current living situation clearly: “I still bear his surname, ‘Oladokun’. But my husband has his house, and God helped me build mine. So, I left my husband’s house and moved into my own house. However, I told him I’ll visit on weekends.”
