Nollywood actress, Damilola Adegbite, has revealed that she called ex-husband, Chris Attoh, to express her condolence after his wife, Bettie Jenifer, died.
The 34-year-old actress revealed this in an interview with BBC News pidgin.
When asked if she had called Attoh since his wife’s death, she answered in pidgin, “He is the father of my child so I do not have any choice than to call and talk to him about the incident.
“Anything that happened between us, let us believe that it is the will of God. But as for this issue, it is sensitive, so I had to call him.”
Late in May, Attoh’s wife, Bettie Jenifer, was walking to her car when a man armed with a handgun approached her before shooting her in the head.
The shooting took place in the parking lot of a Maryland office building.
Police described the suspect as “a black male with a thick build and black hair, wearing a dark shirt and pants.”
Damilola Adegbite was previously married to Chris Attoh.
The movie stars got married in Accra, Ghana on 14 February 2015.
News broke in September 2017 that the marriage had crashed after Damilola deleted her husband’s surname from her social media accounts.
She also unfollowed him on Instagram, deleting all photos of him from her social media accounts.
Chris later confirmed in an interview with Bella Naija that the two had gone their separate ways but will always remain friends for the sake of their son, Brian.
