Nigerian comedian Remote has opened up about the personal struggles that shaped his decision to marry at a relatively young age.
In a candid interview with media personality Chudeity, the comic actor revealed that the loss of his mother and a deep sense of loneliness played a major role in his choice to settle down in 2020.
“I got married in 2020 because I didn’t have a mother, and I was alone,” Remote disclosed, reflecting on how the absence of maternal support created an emotional void in his life.
The entertainer, whose real name is yet to be widely known, explained that marriage became not just a union but also a source of healing.
According to him, it provided the comfort of family he had long desired after losing his mother.
Remote revealed that he had been in a committed relationship with his wife since 2016, years before tying the knot. He credited her unwavering support during some of his most difficult moments as a key reason for taking the bold step into marriage.
“She has been my support and the only one who could truly handle me,” he said, praising her patience, resilience, and ability to stand by him when others might have walked away.
