Nollywood actress Yvonne Jegede has opened up about leaving her marriage because she was contributing more financially than her ex-husband.
According to NewdayReporters, Jegede confirmed the end of her marriage to actor Olakunle ‘Abounce’ Fawole in 2019, less than a year after they wed.
In a teaser for an upcoming episode of ‘The Honest Bunch’ podcast, Jegede expressed regret over choosing love over financial stability.
She revealed that one of the contributing factors to their divorce was her ex-husband’s sensitivity to jokes due to their age difference; he is eight years older than her.
Jegede explained that her ex-husband would take lighthearted comments as disrespect because of the age gap.
However, the primary reason for the dissolution of their marriage was financial imbalance.
Jegede stated that she was the primary breadwinner, responsible for taking care of their son without much support.
Reflecting on her decision, she admitted she should have prioritized financial security over love, highlighting the challenges she faced in their relationship.
