"At The Time We Got Married, He Was Still Legally Married To Another Woman" - Ara

Posted in: ,


Nigerian drummer Ara will be 40 in January 2015 and in an interview with Encomium Weekly, she opens up about regrets from her 3 year marriage to Olalekan Saliu.

On being 40 and fabulous: “Maybe my gene. I also try to do the right things. I try not to overdo things.”

On regrets at the age of 39: “How I wished I were still a virgin. Yeah, but it’s a good thing I have a beautiful son.”

On her split from her hubby: “It’s not even divorce. As at the time we got married, he (Olalekan Saliu) was still legally married to another woman. I wasn’t aware. So, automatically, our marriage was annulled Ab Initio.”


On regrets from the marriage: “I don’t have regret because a beautiful child came out of it. If I say I have a regret, then my son will be a regret. I don’t have to regret it because of my son.”

On problems of the marriage: “Yes, I was depressed and downcast. I never planned my life like that. I never knew I will experience this. I have always loved family life, having children who would be raised under the atmosphere of love. When all of that was happening, I naturally lost hope, but my son returned my hope.”
