Veteran Nollywood actress Ayo Adesanya has courageously opened up about the severe abuse she endured during her failed marriage, revealing that the trauma led her to struggle with alcoholism.
In an emotional interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, she recounted enduring physical abuse from her ex-husband for a decade, including threats to harm her with a knife.
She also disclosed that he attempted to obstruct her acting career by imposing restrictions that hindered her professional growth and development.
“Anywhere my ex-husband saw me, he would beat me,” she said. “He beat me so much that I became an alcoholic. But I couldn’t leave because of the shame of people saying I couldn’t keep a man.”
