Revealed-Why Ini Edo's Marriage Crashed
Last month, Ini Edo shocked many when she split from her husband of 6
years .She also slammed reports that she was unfaithful.According to a
new report by Vanguard
a source close to the couple and was there when the romance started in
2008, and remained close to the now divorced couple, has revealed why
the marriage crashed .It is a story as told by an insider who knew the
couple way back from New York, where Philips once lived, before moving to Texas, then to Atlanta and now Ghana. -
“I think Ini Edo was badly in love. Philips was a charmer and, as a human being and deeply in love, she followed
her heart. It is so sad that a woman blessed with such a good heart
could be treated in such a hurtful manner. Most people may not know, but
Ini Edo is a dedicated and totally committed spouse any man could hope
to have. That’s why she endured all she did, for six years without
letting the world know the pain she was going through in her marriage,”“Most people do not know that Ini Edo gave up a lot of acting
jobs to be with her husband in America and, unlike the widely peddled
story that the actress was involved in romantic relationships with other
men, for the six years that Ini was married to Philips, she never
cheated on him. Ini Edo adored and loved Philips; she was very fond of
him, cooked his meals personally, and was practically splitting her time between two continents, all in her efforts to be a good wife.
“ There is no doubt that Ini was madly in love with her ex-husband. In a
2009 interview she had with my newspaper, The Diasporan Star in New
York, she effusively declared her fidelity to Phillips and debunked all the stories of her liaisons with other men.

“I am usually at a loss when I read stories about my sexual
relationships with phantom figures and personalities. It is really
astonishing when people just manufacture stories, give them legs and let
them fly when they know the stories are absolutely false,” she had
said.
“It is perfectly legitimate for men to have designs and desires
on stars. I was recently voted by the public as Nollywood’s Sexiest
Actress. So it comes with the territory that men would want to date me.
The question then becomes: do you fall prey to every man that comes your
way? The answer is absolutely “no”. I was raised
well by my parents and I have always been a one-man lady. All the
sexual shenanigans that the media have associated me with are all false.
The problem with our journalists is that if they saw you at a coffee
shop with a man – just any man – even if that man is your cousin or
brother, they will automatically
assume that that is your new lover, and without asking questions, will
rush to publish that you were seen at a coffee shop with a new lover.
“I have lost count of the number of such innocent outings with family
members, friends that the media misconstrued that I was dating. What the
media failed to understand was that I had not allowed stardom and
celebrity to becloud my values. What they did not realize was that I
wanted to be married, and start a family, and that the notion that I was
some kind of a sexually crazed hormone raging young woman, was totally
false and a bad reading of who I am.
“Did I have friends in the past? Of course, just like any other young and single
woman out there, I had friends. Did that make me an out-of control
sexual goddess? Absolutely not! It has been very painful for me each
time I read all the stories written about me, stuffs that are patently
false. I have, however, come to accept it as part of the price you pay for stardom. I just wished they could do a little investigation before rushing to publish.
“One
story that pained me a lot is the notion that I snatched Philips from
his ex-wife – Ruth Okoro – while she was recuperating from cancer
treatment. Nothing could be further from the truth. The ex-wife said I
was callous and mean-spirited to have done so. Initially, I had wanted
to ignore what she had said about me. But I would like to use this
medium to state that I did not take Philips from Ruth Okoro.
