Actress Mosun Filani has revealed that she took a long break from acting to focus on her family and on raising her children.
Speaking in an interview with BBC Yoruba, Filani also dismissed claims that she is a second wife.
According to her, her children are now grown and independent, making it the right time to return to her acting career.
“I stopped acting to focus on my family. My kids are grown; they know left from right, and it’s time for me to get back to acting,” she said.
The actress also used the opportunity to clear the air about speculation surrounding her marriage, insisting she is not a second wife.
“I’m not a second wife; my husband might’ve had a marriage before, but I didn’t meet anyone in his house,” she clarified.
Addressing her long-standing speculation about her marriage, Fulani explained that, while her husband may have been previously married, she did not meet any wife in his house when they married.
“I’m not a second wife; my husband might’ve had a marriage before, but I didn’t meet anyone in his house,” she said.
The actress also explained why she took a hiatus from acting at the peak of her career.
She said the break was necessary to focus on raising her family, adding that she is now ready to return to the screen now that her children are grown.
“I stopped acting to focus on my family. My kids are grown; they know left from right, and it’s time for me to get back to acting,” she stated.
