FLASHBACK: Toriola and husband
Nollywood actress and producer, Olawunmi Toriola, has announced a divorce from her husband.
The actress, who announced on Tuesday in a trending post on her Instagram page, added that she had been separated from her husband over a year ago.
“There has been a lot of media attention on my marriage lately. Yes, indeed, the marriage is over. It didn’t work out. We have gone our separate ways for over a year now. There was no need for drama hence my reason for not telling my fans about it.”
Dailypost reported earlier that Toriola had, in a now-deleted post last year, left a domestic violence and abusive relationship for her well-being.
However, her estranged husband had a few days ago accused the actress of physically assaulting his mother, describing his marriage to Toriola as a total regret.
Reacting to the allegation, Toriola debunked the claims, saying, “I am not a violent person. I have never had to exchange punches with anyone and never have been violent in my marriage. This is not only a personal attack, it is satanic. It is against everything I stand for and believe. As a well-raised Yoruba lady, it is costly to lay your hands on your parents.”
