Wumi stated that she got married to a young man and they had their lives coming up. She added that she believed in making things work but her now ex-husband didn’t give her the opportunity as he always rubbed her fame to her face.

She noted that her ex-husband always kept her trapped in the marriage by threatening her with her fame until she decided not to take it anymore.

However, she noted that the are now good Co-parent and could be better friends as he is actively involved in his son’s life.

“I got married to a young man, we had our lives coming up. I used to believe we could work things out but at a point when you have issues in marriage and keep letting you feel your celebrity status is on the rock. Things that would have been settled.

Me and my ex co-parent on a good note. He is 100% involved in his child as of today.

I even realized that the co-parenting is going better, we could have even ended up being friends.

There was a point when I called Punch newspaper for an interview, I was still married then and I wanted to break the news to them, but I still slowed down.

At some point when my marriage failed, I just put all my energy into my movie and that’s what I am reaping today. My mental health was a mess then but I channeled the energy into my movies”.
