Speaking on Real Life Matters With Aunty Ayo, a podcast hosted by actress Ayo Adesanya, Nwosu said she no longer views marriage as a “do-or-die affair” and advised women to put their safety above societal expectations.

“I don’t believe marriage is a do-or-die affair,” she stated.
“When you see real beating, correct pummelling, you won’t even remember social media. You’ll forget about it and start struggling for your life.”

Nwosu disclosed that she kept her ordeal private for years, refusing to discuss it publicly even when journalists pressed her for details.

“I have not told people until now the kind of domestic violence I went through in marriage,” she said. “Even when the press came after me, I told them I didn’t want to wash my dirty linen in public. It was well while it lasted, but I don’t want to talk about it.”

The actress also recounted how her family persuaded her to remain in the marriage despite the abuse.

“He beat me even in pregnancy, and I said this marriage is a no-no for me. My senior sister knelt down and begged me, saying he was sorry and asking what the world would say. I agreed, but once beaten will always be beaten. If you take it once, you must be ready to take it for the rest of your life.”

Referencing the tragic case of gospel singer Osinachi Nwachukwu, Nwosu urged women experiencing violence to leave before it’s too late.

“When this thing is too much, you have to move. It’s your life we are talking about here, not that person’s life,” she added.
