Celebrity stylist Toyin Lawani, actress and producer Iyabo Ojo, and ex-actor and entrepreneur Carolyna Hutchings all made revelations that set the tone for the drama that would unfold amongst the characters.
The cast, which included Laura Ikeji-Kanu and Chioma Ikokwu, a UK-educated co-owner of Brass and Copper, helped the show shatter the record for the most first-day views on Showmax Nigeria.
Lawani admitting to leaving her current marriage if her husband screws up, Ojo kissing marriage goodbye, Hutchings opening up about the challenges of being married to a billionaire, Ikeji-Kanu celebrating her fifth wedding anniversary, and Ikokwu opening up about her complicated love relationship were among the highlights of the first episode.
