It’s Not Worth It — Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde Advises People To Rethink Marrying Into Families That Dislike Them (Video)

Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has shared her insights on how to handle in-laws who disapprove of a marriage.

Speaking during an interview with Morayo Afolabi Brown, the veteran actress said people should try their best to make their partner’s family understand them, but noted that some families are already set in their ways.

According to her, certain parents hold deep prejudices based on factors like background or place of origin, and in such cases, there may be little anyone can do to change their mindset.

She explained that while some families might eventually come around, the change can be unstable, making the situation unpredictable.

Omotola stressed that marriage itself already comes with enough challenges, so starting that journey without family support can make things even more difficult.

She advised that people should think carefully before entering such unions, adding that going into marriage with hostility from in-laws often leads to a rough path.

In her words, if someone still chooses to proceed despite the lack of support, they should be prepared for the realities that may follow.
