Nollywood sweetheart, Mercy Aigbe, may settle all discord with her estranged husband, Lanre Gentry, and return to him.
Speaking in an interview with Seye Kehinde’s City People Magazine, Aigbe, who has been separated from the hotelier since 2017, said she has no plans of marrying any other man.
WuzupNigeria recalls that Aigbe had alleged domestic abuse, sharing pictures as proofs. Although Gentry initially denied ever laying hands on his wife, after Aigbe posted the pictures, the hotelier swallowed his pride openly apologised.
She said,
Honestly, I have no such plans. I am not fully divorced, and I don’t know what is going to happen tomorrow. Never say never. I have put everything in God’s hands. If God says I will go back to my husband, it is fine. If God says am okay like this, then it’s fine too. Let God take absolute control of everything but there’s no plan of ever settling with someone else.
Lots of the younger actresses always say, they can’t talk about their success story, in terms of business without mentioning your name. Why do you always encourage them considering the envy and hate in the industry?
I love to support young, hardworking and enterprising women, not just with actresses alone, in other field as well, I do it a lot. Even if I don’t know you, I always support them, I derive joy supporting, hardworking, industrious and determined women. I know what I went through to get to where I am today, so I love to use my platform to support them, if that is the only way I can contribute and help them, why not, I know it’s not easy, so I need to encourage them, that is who I am.
Aigbe further said she enjoys social media and the controversies linked to her. She noted that with negativity social media would be boring.
She said,
It is fine. I like it. It makes me laugh. At times, when I read some comments, I roll on the floor and laugh it out. It actually makes social media fun, am sure if there were no negative comments like that, social media will be boring, the negative comments makes it all fun, but anybody that I don’t like or gets to me, I delete and block such person. If the comment is not too bad, I only delete and don’t block such person.
