Yoruba actor, Yomi Fabiyi, announces separation from wife on social media

Yoruba movie actor, Yomi Fabiyi on Friday revealed his intention to divorce his British wife, Fran, after four years of marriage.

In messages posted on social media, the actor disclosed the impending breakup is a result of Fran not agreeing with him on where the couple should live.“Now dat I have proven to all that I am not after p***** and we can’t agree on where to live, I am in UK now and will be asking her 4 a spilt,” the troubled actor began.

It’s so sad that a lot of people never give me the benefit of the doubt. Only a handful think it is right to respect my freedom of choice. I have been unlucky in life, most of what I do normally have opposite impression irrespective of my positive mindset. I cannot help it and will rather prefer to continue to be real as possible, I am used to being misinterpreted my entire adult life. I never aim to hurt anybody in words or actions before them or behind them. I am never raised that way. They forget that some people no matter how horrible the situation, still has some dignity left in them. I have also been raised to know that no matter how small the interactions I have with anybody, I should not let my manners slip. It cost nothing but could win a whole lot of goodwill. Moreso, I have been vigorously warned by my parents never to prove to know if what am ready to give out is a guess. Hopefully Fran accepts my proposition to end this marriage now as I cannot continue this way, AM NOT HAPPY anymore as we edge close to the 4th year anniversary. Fran is such a beautiful woman, supportive and wish I come live in England, take up employmemt and study. I HAVE USED HER DOCUMENTS TO RENEW MY NORMAL VISA ONLY, so no question she is not willing, I NEVER said that. With all humility, if she never promised me she is coming to take up employment in Nigeria and live with me, maybe we may not have secured the dating. I have made it abundantly clear I am not prepared to live abroad as my career was just gathering shape then. I decor wedding hall Nigeria colour on purpose. The outlook of my choice may look familiar to those marriages but I never thought people will think of me that way. I have to live with that but sometimes it can be so bruising. I am focused on my career and keeping my fans and admirers entertained. I have an absolute right to do whatever makes me happy provided it is nothing criminal, illegal, immoral or anti-social. I am NOT interested with the reason two adult came together. It’s crude and an uncivilized thing to do for me. I HOPE I FIND TRUE LOVE AGAIN WHILE I PUSH FOR A HITCH-FREE DIVORCE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I will be fine guys. Thank u – Yomi Fabiyi

Few days ago, Fabiyi won the award of best producer at the 2016 African Films Awards for his effort in Metomi, which stars late Nollywood veteran actress, Bukky Ajayi, Toyin Aimakhu, Kemi Afolabi, and Saheed Balogun among others.

He was in the news in October after raising alarm that the health of Babatunde Omidina, aka Baba Suwe, had plummeted as a result of the latter’s ordeal in the hands of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) which arrested and detained him for allegedly ingesting hard drugs for the purpose of trafficking.

Baba Suwe denied the claim, saying “what Yomi put out is a very old story. I don’t want to talk about the issue any more please ignore it.”
