The actress has disclosed how she was about to get married and how it didn’t work out in an interview on TVC. She said in hindsight, that she is happy the marriage did not work out. She added that rather than bowing to societal pressure, she will marry the “man of her dreams” but in her own time.
“I will marry the man of my dreams and not the man society dreams for me. I almost married someone. We were there. We were at that point. It didn’t work out and I’m happy it didn’t work out because I saw the signs” she said.
From GH gossip
Wow and I thought she was already married.
ReplyDeleteMy dear if e no work. Move on. God go bring ur own.
DeleteRita just forget about marriage and have children abeg. Time no dey
ReplyDeleteShut up timekeeper.
DeleteAs per Gods personal assistant on timing? I hear you
DeleteShe will not forget about marriage.
Delete13:23,Are you the one to care for her at old age?
DeletePlease dont say there's no time. The most important thing is for her to be happy and not just get married....
DeleteDietitian don't mind all these goalkeepers them. How old is she for heavens sake. 40 what?
DeleteUna like to deceive yourselves. Rita is no spring chicken. It's best she starts trying for kids before she hits menopause which is around the corner
DeleteShooter tell them oo!
DeleteWhy would she forget about marriage. Even 50 years woman can marry. God's time is the best.
DeleteHmmmm!!!
DeleteDid she tell you she wants children?
DeleteNot everyone wants to have children
Welcome to Nigeria, a country where people think your life is over and worthless because you are not married or have biological kids.
Delete@Ms Abroadian, Nigeria never wake up to some realisations. Some people still say tufiakwa to CS and see it as a taboo. Vaginal birth or nothing for some. We need to really upgrade our mentality. I'm also talking to myself as a Nigerian.
DeleteFOOL
DeleteSome of you can be so dense at times...shooter no spring chicken?? Really? Are u married yourself ??? No...but you're calling someone else old forgetting that the same God watches over all. You obviously don't learn. As for Jerusalem, I have seen your posts ...you're obviously a child. Cos if you're grown, u would choose your words wisely ...smh
Deleteam i suprised? shooter gyal from your comments here is a vain and wayward person with loose morals...guy or girl sef we dont know wetin you be. not everyone does things anyhow. yes she is not young but having a baby daddy too at this stage she is in requires sense and why entangle yourself with a man for life cos of a baby? if the man is not ready you just embarrass yourself with unneccsary drama. yes she can take care of herself but why deny a child love of both parents? how are we een sure she tried but did not get pregnant? we just sit and judge people when we dont know their story.it did not work out yes but she has decided not to be desperate.
DeleteGood for her. Thank God she dodge a bullet from the son of Adam.#saynotosocietalpressure#
ReplyDeleteI am with you
DeleteSeriously. When a lady starts approaching 30 awon aproko family members and aunties will start trying to hook her up with ill-fitting men all in the name of marrying on time. God knows a lady that does not pray, screen and screen and screen a guy again will have herself to blame. Imagine marrying early to pepper your single friends only to marry a waste man and end up having to be single again. God forbid
DeleteOh dear! God will sort you out in the right time.
ReplyDeleteThat's it ReeDee no pressure mbok cos the same society will lash you if it didn't work out..so just do you and be happy regardless
ReplyDeleteAll in due time Rii.
ReplyDeleteA broken relationship is better than a broken marriage. The right man will come for you at the right time Reedee 👍
ReplyDeleteI pity you sha,which one is the man society wants for you🤣.Wait till you are using walking stick,your business.
ReplyDeleteI pity you the most. Someone just dodged eternal unhappiness but your love of pleasing the society has blinded you. Odenson
DeleteYou think this is funny?
Delete@ Shandysleeks you are very stupid for making such comment.
DeleteYou're talking in the nonsense .
DeleteDodge what? Is Genevieve not happy with now? She is even a grandma.
DeleteEven if she doesn't find the right guy how will it add or remove from your life. You won't go and mind your own tattered entanglement. Na dem. Rubbing relationship in single people's faces meanwhile they are being cheated on and beaten everyday. Oponu. Na u I pity most. Na rita dominic age mate go snatch your partner Las Las.
DeletePity yourself first.
DeleteAnd God has a funny way of humbling people like you laughing at single ladies. Mere fact that you settled for the first fool that came into your life does not mean every woman must settle for less like you okay. If you are truly happy in your situationshit you won't be here laughing at a single lady. Bitter truth. Let those who won't settle for less find the man of their dreams while you are there managing and when you are finally kicked out of your situationshit those you laughed out will be happy. It's not how fast but how well but morons like you won't realize until it is too late. Thank God cus I like to watch idiots like you suffer at last
DeleteYou sound like an idiot right now!
DeletePity all the females in your family first!! What a waste of space!!
DeletePlease take your time, nobody will be in the marriage with you when it's peppering you.
ReplyDeleteThank God women are standing up and not bowing to societal pressure
Please do you. No rush in life
ReplyDeleteIt's OK to look before you leap Rita...
ReplyDeleteA failed relationship is far better than a failed marriage
Rita you have a good personality. A good spirit. Keep being you. Keep your hopes alive. If you desire to get married. God will grant you the best man who will value you. Life happens. People part.
ReplyDeleteSo far she's happy, some are married but sad, some are in hell on earth all in the name of marriage, just be happy Rita
ReplyDeleteAs you please Ma'am. I wish you well.
ReplyDeleteLucky her. I wish I had dodged my bullet. Regret being married to my husband.
ReplyDeleteSending you ehug anon 13:58
DeleteIt is well with you dear. Every experience in life is for a reason.
DeleteIt can be corrected can't it? Must you die in a marriage
DeleteSending u light and hugs. If he doesn't beat u, and he provides, and there are kids, pls manage and hope he will change. Theres no saint out there. Except if he beats u.
DeleteKeep on wasting your time until you start seeing grey hair...oops some already have it at 35
ReplyDelete35keh I'm 23 and i have Greys...it's been like that since childhood.
DeleteI hope you are not looking for Mr perfect dear, cos the man of your dreams may not exist o, let us be wise, a woman ages especially for a woman that wants Children, if you don’t want children then it’s fine to wait for as long as you want, if not please make hay while the sun shines. Otua ka Oram na onu
ReplyDeleteNo, She wasn't 'looking for' or being choosy, she had found, was engaged and about to be married but it didn't work out. Things happen. Maybe he called it off or maybe she did after she found something. I've had broken engagement so I know how it is. Bless you, Rita!!
DeleteGod bless you anon
DeleteThe older and more successful a woman gets, the tougher it is for her to get married. Most of her male agemates and older are married or in a serious relationship and the rest who are single are looking for younger ladies.
ReplyDeleteSadly, most of the men who may come for her are either already married or are "destiny destroyers".
I feel depressed talking like this because I'm still single too. And no, I didn't spend my younger years chasing married men, having premarital sex or looking for a billionaire. The one I thought was the one didn't think so and I've been alone ever since.
Just praying for peace of mind and happiness regardless of whether I get married or not.
Lol, I thought I wrote this. Same here dear. It is well. God will never leave nor forsake us. Ps 126 says when the lord turned around the captivity of Zion we were like them that dream, our mouths filled with laughter and tongues with singing. This will be our testimony regarding our spouses in Jesus name. Amen 🙏🏽
DeleteYou are right, but that is majorly for Nigerian society and Nigerian men. If you can and if your mind is open to it, join online dating and look for other nationalities where age and societal expectations don't matter. Or even black men who are open minded and have no man made restrictions. And whatever you do, pls reject depression and still pursue success if you desire success.
DeleteLove would find you both and the word of God would be fulfilled in your lives.
DeleteKeep holding on , it is never too late, remember the story of Sarah.
Story. All she has to do is aim for an older man and she will be fine. Lies people tell young ladies is that their options decrease as they age. Big lie. Just expand your horizon to date out of country,out of race, and don't forget to aim older. Men always like their lady to be younger. For eg. Rita should aim to marry a man 50 and up. The older the more financially established anyways so the better. Less chance of meeting a guy that wants to use you for your money. Ijs
Delete@anon 18:06, such older financially stable men are already married or looking for ladies in their 20s
Delete18: 06 you are a thoughtless fool. how many singlemen of 50 years are available?..lets even say a widower, is it all of them who might want to remarry? any sensible mature adult knows your chances get slimmer as you get older but God can indeed favour you. truly if you dont limit yourself to race, tribe etc you can meet someone who is older.
DeleteRita....
ReplyDeleteFather grant her..her heart Desire oo..And A faithful patner...
ReplyDeleteThe bone of your bone and the flesh of your flesh shall locate you soon.
ReplyDeleteA resounding Amen
DeleteMay God grant her heart desires
ReplyDeleteA resounding Amen
DeleteI love her😍😍😍😍😍
ReplyDeleteGod will surely grand her heart desire in Jesus name.... Amennnnnnnnnnn
Amen and Amen
DeleteYou made the right decision, happiness is key.... Do whatever makes you happy.
ReplyDeleteIt is well dear Rita😍😍
ReplyDeleteOh dear reedee. Thank God u dodged a bullet oo...I cant just imagine ur beautiful soul being with a lunatic! Chai!
ReplyDeleteThere is no point marrying just for the hell of it. The souls have to match for the marriage to be satisfying. If that soul connection isn't there you just become roommates.
ReplyDeleteGod Bless you .
DeletePeople wey dey advice her to go born pikin, Na ona go still troll her with association of baby mamas. Tueh.
ReplyDeleteAll of you talking about age not being on her side, have you considered the possibility that she might have some eggs frozen?
ReplyDeleteTypical Nigerians with their narrow minds!
But even if she never birth a child, so what. Many who birth and were good parents barely hear from their children now, some are shoved into nursing homes and forgotten about, others had to bury all their children and have no one now. Having children guarantees nothing.
DeleteTrust you SDK not to post my comment. Onyeosi!
ReplyDeleteTo all the Single Ladies, don’t allow anyone pressure you into a bad marriage. Biological clock tick but Technology has made things better. Freeze your eggs if you can afford to, serve God with your whole heart in this season of your life. Enjoy the season and help others. It will happen in God’s time but live, laugh, love, build a career or business, freeze your eggs & stay away from relatives that pretend that marriage defines your existence. It does not.
ReplyDeleteOprah Winfrey is the mother of many children but never married or had biological children. She just fulfilled her purpose in life. The other day upscale Saks Fifth Avenue closed an entire store so she and one of her South African daughters can shop for the daughter’s wedding dress. She was going to walk her down the aisle. She is always busy during commencement/graduation season as many of her girls graduate. I personally believe she can never be lonely, not because she is rich but because she found her purpose in life. Unlike the famous miserable NY millionaire that left her millions for her cat and was mean to all her staff! The best life is the one driven by a purpose to be of service to God and other humans!
