The couple who have been dating before Tchidi divorced his actress wife and mother of his 3 children Sophia Chikere, moved in together at Graceland Estate in Ajah last year.
Nuella has issued a statement confirming the news of her upcoming wedding, saying that she's only following her heart. Find the statement after the cut...
Let me start by confirming some of the rumours you may have heard. Yes, the traditional marriage rites between Tchidi Chikere and I will be performed soon. This was not the way we imagined or planned it, but as they say, nobody has a crystal ball to tell where or who we end up with. Life is a dice.
At the time the rumours of his
separation/divorce and me being involved was going on, I definitely was
not in that space where some story writers said I was. I was busy doing
other
things with my life, other preoccupations, a relationship (I thought
would lead to marriage), and my acting career. Things happened, my
relationship packed up and we went our separate ways, I moved on.
Tchidi
and I have always been friends (As I am with other colleagues), We
trade in the same career, but we never crossed that line (we never
dated), not to talk of me getting pregnant for him ( I’m presently not
pregnant as still being written) sometimes It’s really tiring confirming
or refuting some of these rumors. I know some naysayers would still
believe what they have made up their minds to believe and stick to;
Truth is, I am not making this statement for those set of people,
neither am I making it to get people on my side. This statement goes out
to those who love me and truly care about me and the way I live my
life, and to my very reliable and supportive fans who have been asking
questions and deserve to know the
truth.
In the past two years, Tchidi and I worked more, we
got closer and more friendly, we were both single and I began to
understand and see the real him. Needless to say that I also began to
really, really like this real person I was getting to know more and
more with every passing day. Then it happened, our hearts clicked. Well,
maybe the flying rumours contributed to this and made me look more his
way, or it could have been part of life we have no control over.
Suffice
this to say, he proposed to me a while ago and after very careful
thought and consideration on every side I said yes. Would I say no
because of what people would say and damn where my heart led me? Just
like Bill Cosby said, ‘the key to failure is trying to please
everybody’. I chose not to take that route, instead follow my heart.
My
heart is remarkably at peace with this decision, and I am willing to
take this leap of faith which every married
woman has taken. Where this love will lead me I cannot say, I am not
God, but, I have hope, faith and believe that it will lead me to a good
place. Every one of us in this life deserves a chance to be happy. I am
taking my own chance.
This is the only statement I am making
on this, any other one after this is not from me. I can’t help what
people say or write, but please be careful about what you listen to or
read and believe. For those who wish me the best, I wish the very best,
for those who don’t, I leave you to God who sees and knows all things.
Thanks for reading.
