Ngozi Nwosu, the Nollywood veteran actress, has revealed that she called off her wedding just two days before the ceremony.

Featuring in the ‘Talk To B’ podcast hosted by Biola Bayo, Nwosu explained that her decision was due to the abusive behaviour of her fiancé.

She emphasised that while infidelity might be forgivable, physical abuse is a non-negotiable reason to end a relationship.

Nwosu recounted being physically assaulted by her ex-partner while she was pregnant, which led her to prioritise her safety and career.

She said: “For me, infidelity isn’t enough for you to let go of your man. But, if it’s battery, I advise any woman to, in fact, not take any of their property and run for your life because they will never stop. Once a man lifts his hand on you, he won’t stop.

“I called off my wedding two days before because that day, he gave me the beating of my life. I was pregnant then, and I was like, is this what I’m entering? Because he has never done it before.”

The 61-year-old actress admitted that at some point, she regretted her decision but later realised that it was the best for her.
