June 9, (THEWILL)- Nigerian fashion designer, Maureen Esisi, has asserted that she and Nollywood actor, Blossom Chukwujekwu, are technically still married, despite their separation in 2019. She explained that they are not officially divorced because she never signed any legal documents to that effect. Esisi also accused her former in-laws of encouraging the separation, even though they had initially advised her against leaving the marriage before it ended.
She said, “I would call his mum, and she would give me reasons why we cannot divorce. She would say, ‘It [divorce] is not of the Lord. Don’t worry, he will get better.
’ And then, magically, he said he was done. And the same you guys [in-laws] that were telling me every year to stay, how come your son comes up to you that he’s done and surprisingly, you throw God out of the way? “My separation happened way before it became public. I’m not divorced by books.
Technically, we are still married. When you say you’re divorced, it means you’ve signed papers, right?”.
