Veteran actress Toyin Adewale has said marriage is not a do-or-die affair for her. She drew a clear line at domestic violence.
Speaking on Biola Bayo’s podcast, she said small misunderstandings are normal in marriage. She added that they are not enough reason to leave a home.
Adewale said leaving a marriage can be uncertain. She questioned whether life would improve or become worse elsewhere. She stressed that her decision to stay depends on safety.
She revealed she married in January 1993. She welcomed her son, singer Mayorkun, in March the same year. She described herself as calm and gentle at home.
She said:
“Marriage isn’t a do-or-die thing for me. I wouldn’t stay if he beats me. If there’s no violence and it’s just a minor misunderstanding, it’s normal. Why do I leave? Do I know what will happen where I am going? I got married with the determination of never leaving my marriage, provided there’s no violence.
“I got married in January 1993 and had Mayowa in March 1993. I have been married for 33 years. I am the gentle one”.
Adewale said she began her professional acting career in 1988. Her first paid role earned her N5,000. She also performed before the president. That moment brought her into the spotlight.
She added that she discovered her passion for acting early. She said she still enjoys it today.
“I just found myself in acting, and I enjoy doing it. I started acting in 1988. They paid me 5000 naira, I can’t forget. They gave us clothes, and we performed before the president. It was my first job that brought me to the limelight,” she added.
The actress also spoke about her family background. She said her father had four wives. Each wife had one child.
She added that she is the lastborn. She described her father as very strict. She said he planned for his death.
According to her, he even bought his burial clothes. He also prepared his grave in advance. She said he paid all church fees early. He did this so his children would not struggle after his death.
“My father had four wives, and each wife had one child. I am the lastborn. He was a disciplinarian, so he fixed a lot for us. He bought his grave cloth, did his grave and all.
He paid all the necessary dues to the churches and all and told them to sign so they wouldn’t stress us when he died”, she concluded.

Popular content creator Peller calls out Father for the leaked video showing him in bed with another man, showing they were either having fun or simply just friends, but people on social media would not let the video slide.
In a video made by Peller, he said, “I’m tired of all my family members suddenly wanting to join social media. I can’t believe people are now calling my father gay just because he was lying on a bed with another man doesn’t automatically mean he’s gay.
People are too quick to jump to conclusions and at this point, I’m tired.
“Dad, how many times did i call you to stop sleeping with your fellow man? This is what my mom has been complaining about for years, and you haven’t changed.
Don’t you know this is affecting me as your son? Most of my fans have been criticizing me on TikTok that my father is gày. I’m not happy about this at all”

Popular content creator, Jarvis gives reasons why she shaved ‘gorimapa’ during wedding rites
Content creator, Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, popularly known as Jarvis, has dismissed reports suggesting that she shaved her hair ‘gorimapa’ as part of the traditional rites for her wedding.
In a video shared online, Jarvis explained that she opted for the hairstyle simply because her stylist asked her to cut her hair, stressing that it had nothing to do with any marriage ritual.
She said, “The wedding is finally over and I’m super happy. I’m proud of myself and my husband.
“For those of you speculating that I barbed my hair for my wedding as part of some tribal marriage rites, shut up.
“I barbed my hair because I wanted my hair installation to be perfect. That is what my hair stylist recommended because I have a very stubborn hair. Most of my hair like my frontal has not been sitting pretty because of my front hair.”
Jarvis and fellow TikTok star, Peller tied the knot traditionally on August 1, 2026.
The couple held their white wedding on Saturday, August 8, 2026.
