“Happy Birthday My Everything “- Mercy Aigbe Celebrates Son’s 11th Birthday (Photos)
Nollywood star actress and business woman, Mercy Aigbe celebrated her son, Olajuwon on his 11th birthday today.
Sharing beautiful photos, she wrote:
“Happy birthday to my baby, my prince, my look alike, my joy, my happiness! Olajuwon 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍”
Mercy Aigbe, who got divorced from her husband some years ago due to domestic violence, has also opened up about her desires to remarry.
Mercy shared a photo holding a bouquet of flowers her lover sent to her.
She wrote:
“So D Owner’ sent me flowers on set with a note that says “Keep flying high babe, I am rooting for you “ love you forever ❤️
It’s the little things!
Agbeke Aya ‘D Owner ‘ ❤️❤️❤️
Maybe, just maybe I might change my mind and give Marriage another shot! Love sweet sha, Iro o da 😂😂😂❤️😍”
Some months ago, Mercy Aigbe also said she has not given up on love.
Speaking in an interactive session with her fans on Instagram Live, she said,
“I have not given up on love and I would never do that. A lot of people ask, ‘Mercy, are you going back to your husband, or remarrying’? The truth is that I don’t even know.”
“I am more focused on my businesses, raising my children and acting career. Whatever will come after in terms of marriage and relationship, when I get to that bridge, I would cross it. As a filmmaker, I see myself as a sort of preacher because I believe movies are meant to be entertaining and educative.”
Aigbe also stated that marriage is a partnership between two people who are ready to compromise.
She said:
“Nowadays, marriages are breaking up everywhere and I don’t know why. I only know why I got separated from my husband. However, I would not encourage anyone to stay in an abusive marriage.”
“If a spouse has anger issues, such person should seek help. There is nothing impossible. It is just very disheartening that marriages are breaking.”
“These are two people from different homes and backgrounds coming together to live under the same roof as one. Even parents and children have issues. A mother and child relationship is usually considered the closest, yet they still have issues.”
“How much more two people with different belief systems. There is bound to be conflict once in a while; it is how the conflict is managed that matters.”
The actress, however, maintained that any form of violence should not be condoned in marriage.
She added:
“If violence is involved, I say no, run for your life. Don’t stay there.”
“We fail to understand that some forms of verbal abuse even kill faster than violence. A lot of people are depressed. I am tired of marriages breaking up. Marriage is all about sacrifices. And, sacrifices are not meant to be pleasant, so both parties should be ready to let go, compromise and reach a common ground…”
