Although very unsuccessful with trapping men down, the President of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria(AGN) seems not to regret being single, ‘Now that I am very independent, I don’t want any man that will come and give me headache.

Although severally linked to a few men, the actress who has a fetish for tattoos has been single for a very long time. 35-year-old Iyabo Ojo got married in 1999 as a result of being pregnant from a six-month relationship. Although the marriage packed up, Iyabo is glad she can count her blessings with her kids; Festus, 14 and Priscilla, 12. She says, ‘Even though I felt disappointed that I got married at a young age and did not get to study the man I got married to and whose name I bear now, I still profited from it by having two wonderful kids. It is more than any other thing in life.’

Kate Henshaw
For a 42-year-old woman, Kate Henshaw is definitely hot! One often wonders how she manages to keep that slim and youthful body regardless of her age. Recently divorced from her French husband, Roderick James Nuttal, while it lasted, the 12-year old marriage produced a daughter, Ella, currently in Kate’s custody.
