Veteran actress Shaffy Bello has opened up on why her marriage of 25 years ended.
According to her, she walked out of her marriage because it was a long-distance union as her estranged husband, Mr Akinrimisi, was based in the United States.
She made the revelation in a chat with popular media personality Chude Jideonwo.
She said the long distance didn’t help her marriage, so she settled for divorce.
The mother of two said: “He [my ex-husband] was a good father to his children. But I got to a place where I wanted more. And I would always travel back and forth. But I knew at a point that if I really want this, it came with a sacrifice.
“It wasn’t a sacrifice of marriage, but then he being there [USA] and the distance didn’t help.”
She said it was difficult for her to cope with the situation, so she chose divorce.
