‘I remained in my failed marriage to avoid mockery’ -Foluke Daramola

Foluke Daramola-Salak, a Nollywood actress has revealed why she endured her abusive marriage.

The actress said that she remained in her first marriage for four years despite being constantly abused by her ex-husband because she was scared of criticism.

“My first marriage, on the night of my wedding was when I noticed abuse. But because of what people will say… And God has already orchestrated it because my wonderful kids are from the marriage.

“When I finally decided to step out [of the marriage], people did not understand why I stepped out. But I understood that I needed to go. A lot of people did not receive it well, but if I hadn’t stepped out, if I had died there, by now I would have been a forgotten case.

“So, it is better for people not to accept my reality or my truth but I accept my truth than for me to lose my life in the process of trying to prove to the world what I’m going through.”
