After a barrage of crticisms from her fans, popular Yoruba actress, Mide Martins, has pulled down an Instagram post she put up on Saturday in which she detailed why she and her husband are going their separate ways.
In the post, Martins gave her own side to the story of her marital crisis which started making the rounds on social media last week after she and her husband, Afeez Owo, both celebrated their birthdays on April 12 and April 13 respectively.
While her husband, Afeez Owo, put his wife’s picture on his Instagram to mark her birthday, Martins declined doing same for her husband.
This move did not go unnotice to fans who began insinuating that her marriage was on the rocks and she was no longer in her matrimonial home.
But on Saturday, Martins took to Instagram to clarify things in several posts.
She said she could not celebrate her husband by posting his pictures on his birthday because he abandoned the house and their children for over three months.
“So many people abused, cursed, judged, criticized and even condemned me for not uploading his picture on his birthday. How can I celebrate a man that has abandoned me and his kids for over three months now without looking back and made it clear he wasn’t ready to get back to me”
Also, countering comments that she moved out of her matrimonial home, Martins said it was her husband that moved out of their house to a new apartment after an argument three months ago over the well-being of their children.
“Presently as we speak, he’s now (living) in his new house, neglected his wife, kids and responsibilities since. I tried to resolve this issue by informing some of our close relatives but all to no avail. I guess his mind was strongly made up and must have his reasons for wanting to be a free man. Naturally couples do have issues between each (other) which are meant to be resolved between them amicably, not taking such a drastic measure like moving out of the house.”
Aside the couple’s two daughters, Martins said her husband also abandoned two of their cousins and a house help when he left over three months ago.
The actress also insinuated that her husband was seeking her downfall.
“My husband why are you trying to destroy me? Why do you wanna kill me? What will be your achievement? Why do you wish to destroy my career? This is the career that gives me money to feed the children that came out from your flesh and blood. Why do I deserve this kind of hatred from you? Is this what I get for having stayed by your side and supported you for good 13 years?”
However, as at yesterday, the actress had pulled down posts concerning her marital crisis.
