I Wish To Get Married Again - Toke Makinwa
Popular media personality and actress, Toke Makinwa, has revealed that she wishes to remarry again.
The actress was formerly married to fitness entrepreneur, Maje Ayida in 2014, and they got separated in 2015, after she found out he impregnated his ex-girlfriend.
Speaking in a recent podcast interview with British-Nigerian media personality, Madame Joyce, Toke Makinwa described marriage as a beautiful institution, and wishes to get married again.
She said:
“People always think I hate men or a feminist who bashes men. I have been married before and marriage is one of the most beautiful institutions.
I see marriage like the relationship between siblings. If your siblings comes to visit, the first couple of days are exciting. You guys wear matching pyjamas, sleep on the same bed, and catch up on all the lost years or lost moments. By the third day, it’s like, ‘Close my f*cking door. Who wore my shoes? Where are my earrings? Please, when are you going back to your house? Please, I am tired.’ And that was how I saw it.
“There were days when I would rush home to tell my ex-husband everything I had been through. And there were days when I woke up in the morning, I said, ‘God, you must hate me for me to marry this idiot. This is not life; this must be hell.’ That was how I saw it. And it didn’t work out many years ago. But I still fancy the institution. I do want to get married again."
