A few months ago it was revealed that Ini Edo and her husband of 6 years Philip Ehiagwina had ended their marriage. There have been allegations of infidelity on Ini’s part thrown around in some publications while other have alleged Philip was to blame for the marriage ending.
Now an “inside source” who claims to be close to both parties has revealed to Vanguard why the couple broke up. The unnamed source claims to have been a first hand observer of their romance when it started in 2008 and right up until the end when they broke up.
See what the source had to say after the jump
I think Ini Edo was badly in love. Philip was a charmer and, as a human being and deeply in love, she followed her heart. It is so sad that a woman blessed with such a good heart could be treated in such a hurtful manner. Most people may not know, but Ini Edo is a dedicated and totally committed spouse any man could hope to have. That’s why she endured all she did, for six years without letting the world know the pain she was going through in her marriage. Most people do not know that Ini Edo gave up a lot of acting jobs to be with her husband in America and, unlike the widely peddled story that the actress was involved in romantic relationships with other men, for the six years that Ini was married to Philips, she never cheated on him. Ini Edo adored and loved Philips; she was very fond of him, cooked his meals personally, and was practically splitting her time between two continents, all in her efforts to be a good wife.So…this source who claims to be close to the couple, is blaming Ini’s husband for the demise of their marriage?….
In a 2009 interview Ini Edo gave to the The Diasporan Star, she made a point to declare her fidelity to Phillip and shut down all the media reports of extra marital dealings with other men. She said,
I am usually at a loss when I read stories about my sexual relationships with phantom figures and personalities. It is really astonishing when people just manufacture stories, give them legs and let them fly when they know the stories are absolutely false. It is perfectly legitimate for men to have designs and desires on stars. I was recently voted by the public as Nollywood’s Sexiest Actress. So it comes with the territory that men would want to date me. The question then becomes: do you fall prey to every man that comes your way? The answer is absolutely “no”. I was raised well by my parents and I have always been a one-man lady. All the s*xual shenanigans that the media have associated me with are all false. The problem with our journalists is that if they saw you at a coffee shop with a man – just any man – even if that man is your cousin or brother, they will automatically assume that that is your new lover, and without asking questions, will rush to publish that you were seen at a coffee shop with a new lover.
