Fans were left astonished by the shocking news of the 17-year marriage between renowned Nollywood actor Bolanle Ninalowo and his wife, Bunmi, coming to an end. This revelation resurfaced an old 2022 video interview where the actor openly acknowledged his past mistakes and shortcomings in his marriage.
Ninalowo Bolanle, the prominent Nollywood sensation, surprised many with the disclosure of his separation from his wife, Bunmi. He shared this heartbreaking announcement on his Instagram page, stressing that the decision was made for the well-being of all involved parties.
In the wake of these recent developments, an archived video of the actor emerged, in which he candidly discussed a period of infidelity within his marriage. Bolanle Ninalowo revealed that his unfaithfulness had severely impacted his marriage, prompting him to take corrective actions upon realizing he had lost his wife’s trust.
During a prior episode of Chude Jideonwo’s visual podcast, he emphasized how his wife began to perceive him as a stranger within their own home. He stated,
“The years when I was feeling too young and cheating all day, breaking her heart and everything, to the years when I wasn’t there and pursuing my dreams. But I forgot this was a human being that was taking records and experiences of her life as well. So, I became somebody that she didn’t recognize anymore. At some point, I couldn’t even call her to pick up my calls. The woman I once had control over, I had no more control because she had outgrown me.“
Their relationship facing challenges has been a recurring theme in the headlines. Back in 2017, the actor confirmed during an interview with Genevieve Magazine that, after 12 years together, he and his wife had decided to go their separate ways. Nevertheless, they did manage to reunite in 2018.
