Akintola, 54, in a recent interview stated that she is yet to marry because her forever love passed.
âAre you married? âNoâ, she said when Ehumadu asked about her marital status.
Quizzed on the reason she is yet to be married, the actress stated: âHe diedâ¦I donât talk about it but he died. Do you know how long it took me to find him, a very long time but he is gone.
âI donât believe that you get married for marriageâs sake. If you are not going to be truthful to your vows, then why are you doing it? The person wey me fit do forever for don die. Heâs gone. I am not saying that you canât have two or three loves in your lifetime but do you know how long it took me to find that one that I knew I could stay with.â
She added: âI am also too old to understand red flags when I see it and I think I am too old to manage and say I am doing something just to make other people happy. Who are those people? To make the world happy, I should marry someone so that the world can say you don do am.
âIt doesnât make sense, I donât care, I really donât care. No, I wonât do that for anybody. I am always truthful to myself because at the end of the day if someone dies,when you stand in front of God, na you and God, one on one you go answer the question, nobody go answer the question for you. So, I am living my life in all truthfulness, being truthful to myself.â
The actress also disclosed that she believes in marriage, however, the man she wants to do it with is late.
âI do but the person I did it with is dead, he is gone. I have not seen anybody else and before I saw him I thought it will never happen. I have dated but I have never seen myself marrying those people. I didnât see forever with those people.â
However, Bimbo Akintola acknowledged that if she finds a man that she can spend the rest of her life with, she is going to remarry, irrespective of her age.
âIf I ever see someone and I see forever with that person, I will do it even if I am 82, I will do it but I wonât do it if I donât see that person.
âI am not able to just stress myself out for anything. Do you know how difficult marriage is? It is difficult, it is very difficult and you will now go on and do it with someone you know you canât do forever with.â
