‘Women need to live alone before marriage,’ Teniola Aladese claims

Nollywood actress, Teniola Aladese, has spoken on the importance of living alone as a lady before settling down with a life-partner.

The actress, while speaking on the That’s What She Said vodcast, explained that women tend to discover themselves on a deeper level when they live alone for a while.

Teniola further explained that moving directly from your parent’s house, to becoming a wife, could lead to regrets and shocks in the marriage.

“A lot of women just go from their family’s houses to their husband’s house. But they don’t particularly know what they like, they don’t know what kind of trait their husband-to-be has. So they are shocked when they enter into the home and they see some mannerisms that they haven’t experienced before. But I feel like when you live alone before getting married, you get to know yourself, you get to know what you like, you get to know the nonsense you would take and the nonsense you would not take. But when you just enter into marriage without any experience of living on your own, that is when everything start shocking you and regrets creep in,” she said.
