Top Nigerian actress Adunni Ade, has recounted how her father cut her off financially when she got pregnant out of wedlock.
The actress made the revelation in an Instagram post on Friday 26th November 2021 stating that the incident happened while she was in college.
Adunni also disclosed that she felt the world was caving in on her at the time as the pregnancy left her father so hurt and disappointed.
While posting photos of her sons, Ayden and D’marion, Adunni Ade stated that those days were the worst time of her life.
“These past few days have been overwhelming! I remember when I found out I was pregnant with D’marion, it felt like the world came caving in on me. A whole lot happened to me,” she wrote.
“My dad was so hurt that his first daughter was pregnant (out of wedlock, I understood). I was a senior at college. It was the worst time of my life. All financial support was cut off! I was ill. My mum did all she could to stand by me.
I felt as though I had failed in life as my hero was disappointed in me. I began facing so many challenges in life. My heart was so fragile I thought I’d never make it through because of how terrible my life had become.
We didn’t have much! I mean nothing! One thing that kept me going was D’marion. The way he looked at me, gave a different meaning to life. His eye balls would pierce into my soul. He gave me hope! I recall promising him for as long as I had breathe in me, I would be the best mother I could be.”
Adunni also recalled having Ayden, her second child, four years after D’marion. She said Ayden gave her a different level of motivation.
