Nuella Njubigbo, a talented actress, has shared her inspiring journey of self-discovery and healing.
Nuella was married to filmmaker Tchidi Chikere, with whom she built a home, shared dreams, and had a beautiful daughter.However, over time, the relationship lost its spark, and the peace she craved as a woman and mother vanished.
Despite her efforts to hold on, pray, and smile through the pain, she felt herself shrinking inside.
In 2021, after years of trying and hoping, Nuella made the courageous decision to walk away from the marriage to find peace.
She prioritised her daughter, work, and healing, taking time to rebuild herself as a woman, beyond her roles as an actress or wife.
In 2023, love returned to Nuella’s life, this time with peace and maturity.
She remarried, embracing a new chapter in her life. Her journey serves as a testament to the possibility of second chances.
Her words: ”I was married to filmmaker Tchidi Chikere. We built a home, shared dreams, and had a beautiful daughter. But over time, we drifted apart. The peace I needed as a woman and mother was gone.
“I held on, prayed, and smiled through the pain — but inside, I was shrinking. In 2021, after years of trying and hoping, I made the hardest decision of my life: I quietly walked away to find peace.
”I stayed single for a long time, focusing on my daughter, my work, and my healing. I had to rebuild myself — not as an actress or a wife, but as a woman.
”Then in 2023, love came again — this time with peace and maturity. I remarried. Yes, life can give you a second chance.
”To every woman reading this: never be afraid to leave what’s breaking you. And never feel guilty for choosing joy when it returns.”
