Popular Nigerian comedian Destalker has revealed that he is officially divorced, marking the end of a marriage that many fans never even knew existed.
The stand-up star, known for his sharp wit and high-energy performances, made the rare disclosure during a sit-down chat with content creator Timi Agbaje. In the interview, Destalker didn’t shy away from discussing his failed marriage and the lessons he’s learned from it. He said candidly:
“I am happy, I have a happy home. I was married but not anymore. Marriage is not a criteria for a happy home.”
While many celebrities often spotlight their love lives, Destalker had kept his marriage completely out of the public eye, until now. He revealed that the marriage lasted just three years, following a six-month dating period. When asked why it ended, he simply blamed “irreconcilable differences.”
Destalker went on to drop some hot takes on relationships, gender dynamics, and why he believes marriage favours women more than men. Stirring debate online with the statement, he said:
“I can decide to remarry next week Friday or Saturday. But a woman can’t. It’s a man’s decision for marriage.”
Currently, the comedian says he’s not interested in love or romantic entanglements of any kind. For now, it’s career first and no distractions. He added:
“I’m not in love. I’m not dating. I’m not even looking. I’m just focused.”
In other news, Nollywood actress Kemisola Apesin, popularly known as Kemity, has opened up about the deeply personal experiences that shaped her journey into single motherhood. She also didn’t mince words on how public judgment often ignores the painful reality behind her story.
In a recent interview on Talk To B, the Yoruba movie star courageously shared how she came to have two children with different fathers, shedding light on topics many women shy away from due to societal stigma.
Kemity began by recounting how she became a mother while still in secondary school. According to her, she was in SS3 preparing for her WAEC exams when she got pregnant for her then-boyfriend—the man who deflowered her.
Despite the situation, her mother, who was a strong advocate for education, insisted she stay in school and complete her education before even thinking of marriage.
