Nollywood actress Chita Agwu has appealed for privacy after announcing that a court has legally dissolved her marriage.
The actress made the announcement in a statement shared with her followers on Instagram, describing the development as the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.
According to Agwu, she has decided to move forward with dignity and a positive outlook, despite the personal nature of the experience.
She urged the public to respect both her privacy and that of her former partner, warning against subjecting people whose marriages have ended to judgment, ridicule or public embarrassment.
Agwu stated that relationships do not always end as people hope, but everyone deserves the opportunity to move forward and rebuild their lives without unnecessary scrutiny.
“After much thought and a deeply personal journey, I wish to officially inform the public that the court has legally dissolved my marriage,” she said.
The actress added that she would not disclose intimate details about the circumstances surrounding the divorce or engage in public discussions about the relationship.
She explained that her decision was motivated by a desire to protect the privacy of those involved and focus on her personal well-being.
Agwu also acknowledged the support she had received from people during her journey, expressing gratitude to those who had stood by her.
As she prepares to move into a new phase of her life, the actress said she intends to prioritise emotional healing, growth and peace.
“I choose peace over controversy, healing over bitterness, and growth over public explanations,” she stated.
She further emphasised that the end of her marriage does not mean the end of her personal journey or future aspirations.
“My marriage has ended, but my life continues,” Agwu declared, adding that she remained hopeful about what lies ahead.
Her statement has renewed discussions about the importance of respecting personal boundaries when public figures experience significant changes in their private lives.
Although she has confirmed the legal dissolution of her marriage, Agwu has chosen not to provide additional information about the circumstances that led to the decision.
She appealed to fans and the wider public to respect her wishes and allow her and her former partner to move forward peacefully.
