Veteran Nollywood actress, Stella Damasus has revealed what she referred to be her “biggest mistake” in life.
The film diva recalled how she once felt compelled to marry her closest friend, the choir director, by a church where she was a choir member, in an interview with well-known media personality Teju Babyface.
Stella emphasized that while as friends they were great, as a couple they didn’t work and that they were not intended to be married.
In her words;
“Before him [my ex-husband] there was somebody else that I married. It didn’t work out. Nobody heard my voice. I didn’t talk about it. That passed quietly.
It lasted eight months. Biggest mistake of my life because the guy was an amazing guy. But he was my friend, my best friend. And religion is what caused that problem that made us marry when we were not supposed to be married. We were supposed to be very good friends because as my friend, he was awesome. But as a married couple, we didn’t work. We just m*ssed it up. And we knew it.
So when we went our separate ways, we were like out of love and respect for each other, let’s just leave it. We don’t talk about it, we just leave it so that at least we can still say, hello, are you okay? How are you?”
