In a recent interview with Vanguard, the Nollywood actress spoke about her love life, marriage and career. Read excerpts below:
You have not been in public scenes for a while, what happened?
This is simply because my life has changed. I got married, separated, and has a child. I am re branding myself and that is why I have left the public scene. That doesn’t really mean I have left showbiz but only took some time out for my family. I am fully back but not as the former Uche Iwuji, I am a new Uche Iwuji.
What ‘s the difference between old and new Uche Iwuji?
I have always been involved in one scandal or the other. That will change because Uche is now a mother who wants the best for her son.
What are those things you really want to change?
I used to go out a lot, I was always every where.
So, you mean that has always landed you in trouble?
No, it does not put me in any form of trouble. It only made people know who I was. Then, I was single so it is allowed. I am now a mother, things must change.
Your experience as a single mother?
It is not easy; I must confess. I have to be there for my son who will be three this year. I have my businesses that has been footing our bills. I hang out with single mothers like myself. I thank God that every one is showing me love. However, a man settles your bill when you are married but that has changed because I fend for myself and my child. Nobody is asking for my account now (laughs).
What has been married and single taught you?
I have learnt to be strong for myself. Separating from my husband was not a good thing at all. Though, an eye opener. As far as I am concerned, being single again is fun. I am free to do whatever I like. I have been able to get over the break up when I look at my son. He is a bundle of joy.
What went wrong in your marriage?
The marriage failed because we didn’t understand each other well.
Your courtship was for three months, do you think that could be another factor?
Not really, I still respect and love my ex husband till date. In fact, I still pray for him.
Does that mean you will accept him if he comes back?
Yes, I will a million times. He is the best gift I have ever gotten.
Who do you have to blame for your break up; The media, choice of career or your family members?
I blame it on the society. People were always saying rubbish about me. However, I advise intending celebrity couples to understand each other well and shun third party.
Is it true you are unlucky with men as purported online?
Yes , I’ m not that lucky with men but I think I was lucky at a point. To have been married to my ex husband means luck was smiling at me. We only didn’t understand each other well.
Do you have any plan to remarry?
No way. I will marry my ex husband a million times again. No other man is good for me. I believe he will come back when he is ready.
How do you intend to manage sex in his absence?
I am sex starved for now but I don’t really long for it. I have been without sex for a while now.
