Addressing her former husband directly during the conversation, the actress emphasised that the account she was giving about their marriage was truthful and not intended to tarnish his image.
“Charles Ekwu, if you see this video, just know I am not lying against you,” she said.
Anunobi explained that despite warnings from her parents before the marriage, she decided to stay in the relationship because she believed things would eventually improve. According to her, she held on to the hope that the promises made at the beginning of their relationship would be fulfilled.
“I still held onto the marriage believing that it’s alright, we will be fine. He’s the same person that said he would be there with me through thick and thin,” she said tearfully.
The actress further revealed that the relationship later became emotionally and financially challenging for her. She alleged that she ended up shouldering most of the responsibilities in the home throughout the marriage.
According to Anunobi, the concerns her parents had raised about the relationship before she got married eventually turned out to be accurate.
“He is the same person that my parents said, ‘Eucharia, this guy is not it for you,’” she recalled.
She went on to claim that during the course of the marriage, she was largely responsible for handling financial obligations and maintaining the household.
“I was the one doing everything. Charles never brought one naira,” she stated.
Anunobi’s emotional revelation has sparked conversations online about the realities many individuals face in troubled marriages and the pressures people sometimes feel to remain in relationships despite clear warning signs.
