My Husband’s Calling As A Pastor Almost Ruined Our Marriage – Bidemi Kosoko [Video]

Nollywood actres, Bidemi Kosoko has recounted how her husband’s calling as a pastor almost ruined theirs marriage.

Bidemi Kosoko shared her struggles and experiences in a recent interview with Biola Bayo on the show “Talk to B.”

The actress revealed that her husband’s role as a pastor nearly led to their divorce because she never saw herself as a pastor’s wife.

She also addressed rumors about marrying late, explaining that she got married at 32, although she had always hoped to marry in her mid 20s.

It is not like I married too late. I got married at 32. I have always loved the idea of getting married at 25 and 26, by that 32, I am supposed to be done having kids at 32 then face my life and career. 

“My husband is a shepherd in his church, this has been his calling . I didn’t marry him as a shepherd and this is something that almost broke our marriage because I don’t see myself in that Pastor’s wife shoes,” Bidemi said.

The actress shared how losing her mother at the age of 6 deeply affected her and credited her famous father, Jide Kosoko, for providing support.

She recalled not being able to tell anyone when she started menstruating and resorting to using pieces of cloth, not because of financial issues, but because she was too shy to speak up.

I lost my mum when I was 6. She died in 1992. When I started menstruating, I couldn’t tell anybody. I cut pieces of clothes to package myself, not because there was no money to buy the sanitary pad but because I refused to speak out.

“If I had a mom, she would have noticed definitely. Of course, it wasn’t easy growing up without a mum but I thank God for the father I have.

“My name is Abidemi because my dad wasn’t around when my mum had me. He was in London for a performance or show,” Bidemi Kosoko said.

Bidemi also denied accusations of lying about her age, saying she is a devoted mother who prioritizes her children.

She mentioned that people doubted her age after her father revealed it during a birthday wish, but she emphasized her love for her kids and how she always wants them around her.

The actress said, “People always say I am lying about my age especially when my dad wished me a happy birthday and revealed my real age, which left people in doubt.

“I love my kids so much and I am the type of lady they call ‘Werey Olomo’. 

“I always want my kids to be around me. So they are my hand bag, we go everywhere together. I stopped traveling because of my children. I can’t leave them alone for a long time.”
