Stella Damasus
Popular Nollywood actress and singer, Stella Damasus, who has been an outcast of sort among some of her colleagues who have labelled her 'husband-snatcher' after she started living as a couple with Doris Simeon’s ex husband, Daniel Ademinokan.
In an interview with Vanguard, the screen star said since the incident made news a couple of years ago, she has kept her peace, refusing to comment on the issue until recently.
She said, "I have kept mum on the allegation until now and I feel it’s time I expressed myself. One of the comments I have seen consistently, over and over again is, ‘Stella snatches somebody’s husband’; ‘Stella the husband snatcher’; which is what has been going on.
"And I had sworn that I would never talk about it or even listen or stress myself about the issue. But I have decided to talk about it now, so that I end it once and for all.
"How is it possible to go to somebody’s home, take a happily married man, take his son away from his home and say follow me.
"Let’s assume you are a man, and according to their story, he is happily married inside his home with his family complete, and I walk into that home to forcefully take a man, able-bodied man, and a kid, away from somebody’s hand and you are there looking at me.
"So, logically, if people actually sit down and think about it intelligently, how do you snatch somebody from somebody and the person is there looking at you?
"So when you see a man who has settled ties with a woman and decides to move on with his life and you feel that there is something in this man that you like and he likes you, is there a problem there? I am not a kid. I am 38 years old. I am not about to start hiding myself anymore," she said.
