July 13, (THEWILL) – Nollywood Actress, Bukunmi Oluwasina, has debunked news making the rounds, that she rushed into marriage to cover the shame of getting pregnant out of wedlock.
It was alleged that the actress was impregnated by her husband, who was then, her boyfriend and as one of the notable movie stars, such might be a shameful thing, hence the decision to hastily do a closed-door wedding with him.
The actress took to her Instagram story to finally address the allegations. She revealed that all the claims were untrue;
“I thought I should ignore it because it’s one of those things, but I suddenly remembered my daughter.
“I knew she would grow up to read these things someday, so, I decided to speak my truth and add up evidence, even though the tale bearers had no evidence to support their claims.
“My husband and I can’t engage in fracas because of something that was said in the media. We all have our dirty secrets, no matter how little, and before we got married to each other, I told him every one of the things I could count as secret and he did the same also.
“So, some people would be surprise to know that there is nothing you can tell me about my husband or tell him about me that we haven’t already told each other, fought about, settled, and now laugh about it because there are some secrets you can’t keep forever, so it is better your partner hear it from you than from outsiders. It reduces the pain.
“But I’m not the type of girl with the records of sleeping around or staying with a man for money.
“I grew up with money and by the grace of God, I have been able to make my own money too.
“I dated my boyfriend for years before we finally agreed to settle down. It was not because we were not ready. No. It was because we had our plans and that’s what we followed.
“Who does a marriage out of no choice and goes to court? Oh maybe they didn’t get the full gist. We had Church, court and traditional weddings. We only posted the part that casted because it’s the only part that leaked online.
“We have been long engaged before the date it went viral, most fans and friends just don’t know about it because Covid-19 denied the chance of gathering the whole family for a proper celebration.
“And trust me, had it been it wasn’t leaked, I might have eventually made the wedding unknown on social media. That’s how much I love my privacy.
“I never dated Lateef. I have never for once had interest in him for a second. I’m not a lover of public figure affairs or unnecessary attention.
“Thank God the guy in question is still alive, anyone can publicly or privately ask him If I Oluwasina Bukunmi Grace have ever asked him where he lives, let alone paying him a visit.
“Can you date or have interest in a person and never get to do that? If anyone has claims of ever seeing me with him in a place that is not for shooting or work related environments, Please kindly come forward with your proof.
“I dated my friend for 10 years before we got married, and I never mentioned his name or talked about us in any interview even till and after our wedding. It should automatically show the public how much I love my privacy”, she stated.
