Veteran Nollywood actress Bose Aregbesola has broken her silence on the persistent rumour that she is married to colleague Segun Ogungbe, revealing how constant on-screen chemistry led fans to blur the lines between fiction and reality.
In a candid interview with Biola Bayo, the seasoned actress expressed exhaustion over years of misconceptions.
“To this day, people still think I am the wife of Segun Ogungbe. They will say Segun’s wife. I am tired of having to explain myself. When I go to parties, they still ask about him. They will say, ‘How about your husband?’ We did the work back-to-back, and played the lead. We played the role of a couple in all.”
Despite the tiring rumours, Bose remains grateful for the professional bond.
“That really helped me. God blessed me through him, and I appreciate it.”
She also opened up emotionally about her late husband, painting a picture of a supportive marriage that withstood challenges.
“People will say your husband trusts you. One day, someone called him from a hidden number, saying I was in a hotel. A man’s trust is something that’s important. He is someone that likes our work. When I’m called for work, even if it’s midnight, he has driven me there. A lot had happened in our marriage that could have separated us. We had no problems in our marriage until he passed away. The sickness lasted for just seven days.”
Bose’s heartfelt revelations have touched many fans, highlighting the blurred boundaries between reel and real life in Nollywood while celebrating her enduring marriage and resilience after loss.
