Nigerian actress, Anita Joseph, gleefully spoke about how her marriage to hype man, Michael Fisayo, popularly known as MC Fish, has influenced her.
Speaking in an interview with PUNCH, Anita, who recently celebrated her fourth wedding anniversary with her husband, revealed that marriage has influenced her positively.
According to the mother of one, being married to her husband has contributed to her personal growth and made her a better person.
Speaking further, Anita asserted that what matters most in terms of marital union is one’s heart and not the opinion or suggestions from ones’ parents and family members. She stated:
“Marriage has influenced me in a very positive way. I have learnt to be more protective and patient.
“What matters the most is one’s heart. One’s parents or other family members won’t be in the marriage with you, so it is basically one and one’s spouse forever. So, if one chooses someone from a different tribe, it is okay. One’s happiness comes first.”
On how she has been coping with the cultural differences considering that she is Igbo and her husband is Yoruba, she said:
“My mother-in-law speaks Yoruba to me and I say ‘eshe’ (thank you). I have learnt a bit, though it has not been easy.”
The role interpreter also stated that despite the disbelief of many about her marriage, she was happy to prove them wrong.
“As regards my post on Instagram on my wedding anniversary, I wrote that some people and even blogs said that my marriage won’t last, but I ‘sent’ it back to them and their sisters. God’s grace has kept my husband and I together,”
she said.
