Christabel Egbenya, a newlywed Nollywood actress, has discussed motherhood and some changes she has gone through since giving birth to her first child a few weeks ago.
In an interview with Saturday Sun and obtained by Glamsquad magazine, Egbenya spoke about marriage, motherhood and her career.
The new mum said about motherhood: ” A lot has changed since I had my baby. Now, I really know what motherhood is all about. A lot of things changed about me; about my life, the way I reason and the way I see things. Bringing another soul to life is something else. It has taught me a whole lot of lessons. Ever since I had my baby, my mentality, my reasoning has changed. You know, you have to give your children time; you have to check up on them, you have to take care of them. Even if you have nannies and other people around you, you won’t be comfortable, you’d still want to show them that mother’s love. That bond is something else, I just don’t know how to explain it.”
However, the mother of one has explained how and why she wed a fan, and why she won’t turn down any role because of her marital status.
“I don’t think I’ll reject any role because my husband loves my movies so much. He is in support of me working for people and producing my movies, because he loves to see me act. He was actually my fan before we got married. Normally, I don’t do bad roles. We don’t actually do all those kissing and smooching in Nigerian movies anymore,” the actress stated.
