Award-winning British-Nigerian presenter and actress Simi Drey has stated that she canceled her marriage plans with her former lover after getting engaged. Simi made this known during a recent episode of the WithChude podcast, while speaking about her relationship and marriage that ended in cancellation.
Revealing the reason for her decision, the actress explained that she realized she wasn’t fully fulfilled or happy after getting engaged. The media personality stated that she faced criticism after the cancellation. “My ex and I didn’t have a perfect relationship. He never cheated, never was abusive. But you know when you are not 100% fulfilled or happy. We do live in a part of the world where marriage is heavily emphasized, especially for women.
“My mom is not the type who would ever stop me from doing something or blacklist me. But she knew I wasn’t feeling whole in the relationship. I called my dad and ended the call in tears of apprehension, not joy. “Two months later, I called my fiancé and said that we should work on our relationship first, and then maybe we can think about marriage. “A month later, I didn’t feel I wanted to marry this man because I wanted to marry with worth. I ended the engagement with him.
