Popular Nollywood actress Ini Edo has shared emotional details about how her once carefully planned marriage and motherhood journey took unexpected turns.
Speaking on *The Buzz* podcast, the screen diva revealed that she tied the knot at the age of 26 with a vision of completing childbearing by 31 and then focusing on her career. However, fate had other plans, as she suffered multiple miscarriages that altered her expectations.
*"Getting married at 26, I thought by 31, I would have been done with childbirth and able to focus fully on my career, but life didn’t pan out that way,"* she said.
She disclosed that she endured over six miscarriages, an experience she described as painful and disheartening.
*"I don’t like talking about it, but I have had over six miscarriages. It wasn’t a fancy way out for me. I have always wanted to do this. I have lost pregnancies midway, and I know what I have dealt with as a woman,"* she stated.
Ini Edo married American-based businessman Philip Ehiagwina in 2008, but their union ended in 2014 after six years. The actress later welcomed her first child, a daughter, via surrogacy in 2021.
Despite her challenges, Ini Edo remains a strong advocate for women navigating fertility struggles and continues to focus on her thriving acting career.
