Maureen Ezissi, the estranged wife of actor Blossom Chukwujekwu, has said that they are not legally divorced because she did not sign divorce papers and she was not served.
Maureen made the claim during a question and answer session on Instagram on Tuesday.
“When did you do your divorce? Because the last time we asked you said you’re not yet done,” a fan asked.
“Last I checked, I signed no divorce papers,” Maureen replied.
“Why didn’t you sign the divorce papers? You weren’t served?” The fan inquired again.
“Wasn’t served any,” Maureen responded.
Blossom Chukwujekwu tied the knot traditionally with his new bride Winifred Akhuemokhan on Friday, May 20 in Benin City, Edo State.
Blossom Chukwujekwu and his first wife Maureen Ezissi got married in a private traditional wedding ceremony in December 2015. They had a more elaborate white wedding in October 2016.
The public was made aware of their crashed marriage when the duo unfollowed each other on social media in September 2019.
Maureen in an Instagram post on August 11 2020 revealed details of what transpired in her failed marriage.
The fashion stylist said on Instagram on Tuesday on the 1st anniversary of their separation that she was not the cause of her failed marriage like many people believed.
According to the 33-year-old, her marriage did not crash on the grounds of her inability to conceive, disrespectful behaviour, possessiveness or infidelity.
She wrote: “I always wanted a child/children. ALWAYS!!!! The problem was NEVER me. He never wanted kids at that time at least not with me (I assume). He didn’t ‘seem’ interested in having kids…Reasons best known to him till date.”
