Veteran actress, Ngozi Nwosu, has shared a personal story revealing that she called off her wedding just two days before the ceremony due to her fiancé’s abusive behaviour.
In a recent interview on the “Talk To B†podcast hosted by Biola Bayo, Nwosu explained that her decision was prompted by a violent incident where she was physically assaulted by her ex-partner while pregnant.
Nwosu stressed that while infidelity might be forgivable, physical abuse is a non-negotiable reason to end a relationship.
She advised women to prioritise their safety and well-being.
She said: “For me, infidelity isn’t enough for you to let go of your man. But, if it is battery, I advise any woman to, in fact, not take any of their property and run for your life because they will never stop. Once a man lifts his hand on you, he won’t stop.
“I called off my wedding two days before because that day, he gave me the beating of my life. I was pregnant then, and I was like, is this what I’m entering? Because he has never done it before. (The Nation)
