AT 45, POPULAR NIGERIAN ACTRESS RITA DOMINIC EXPLAINS WHY SHE WON’T RUSH INTO MARRIAGE
“I respect the institution of marriage as my parents were married till they died, and they had a beautiful relationship.”
“The problem is at some point, it begins to annoy you because of how much importance people have placed on it. I do want to marry, and I want to get it right once and for all. You know, we make such a big deal of it; we force people and put pressure on them to go in.”
“When they eventually rush into this union, they make mistakes because they were only trying to please people.”
“Over the years, it has stopped irritating me because people will always speculate. They do this because they don’t have anything tangible so they create stories and rumours. I’m at a place where I just laugh at their rumours. Being popular, you have to come to terms with the fact that people will create untrue stories,” she said in a recent live interview on Nigerian media.
