Nollywood single mothers

For some people, being a single mother is not a big deal as it seems to be the normal routine in the industry. This might just be the same for many Nollywood actresses. Many of them have given birth to love children, products of relationships turned sour. Some of them went through the process of changing their marital status to ‘married,’ only to come out of the marriage for reasons best known to them. However, these Nollywood single mothers still walk tall, not caring that the prefix ‘Mrs.’ is not attached to their names.


Genevieve nnaji
Genevieve Nnaji: It is fair to say Nnaji lost her virginity at a very young age. But then, even her worst critics can’t deny the fact that the actress hit stardom not long after. Yet, her name, fame and status as a single mother has not in any way weighed down her career.
Nnaji, who has been linked with many guys – the latest being D’banj – has managed to keep her daughter off the prying eyes of the public. Nnaji has never mentioned the father of her child, but some people say her daughter is living with him in the US.

Monalisa Chinda
Monalisa Chinda: Not a few were stunned when fair-skinned Rivers State-born actress, Monalisa Chinda, parted ways with her husband of few years, Victor Dejo-Richards.
The union produced a beautiful child, Tamar, who is obviously loved by both parents.However, Chinda has taken custody of the child since she broke up with her former husband.

Eucharia Anunobi
Eucharia Anunobi: Popularly known as the ‘Sharon Stone’ of Nollywood, Eucharia Anunobi joined the list of single mothers when her marriage to Charles Ekwu broke down completely a few years ago.
The marriage produced a son, Raymond, who is currently living with the actress. If speculations are anything to go by, Anunobi is taking care of the kid’s welfare all alone, with no help from her former beau.





Grace Amah
Grace Amah: She is the newest member of the single mothers’ league. She is enjoying her status well. Some say the much talked about marriage to the father of her son is now a mirage, while some others believe that Amah will soon walk down the aisle with her man. In any case, her fans are waiting… and watching.








Ibinabo Fibresima
Ibinabo Fibresima: She added to her two kids from different men, another baby that came out from her relationship with actor, Fred Amata.
The ex-beauty queen and former night club owner is obviously a lover of kids and she makes motherhood look good with the way she looks at all times, especially with her kids.






Fathia Balogun
Fathia Balogun: After the public and messy break up with her actor husband, Saidi Balogun, Fathia Balogun is facing single motherhood and taking care of her two kids from that marriage well.
Still looking radiant after two kids, Fathia seems not bothered by her status, although it has been rumored again and again that she was quitting the single mothers’ club.














Annie Macaulay
Annie Macaulay: She wouldn’t have been on the list, but some might argue she should since she is an actress. After all, Macaulay featured in some Nollywood films recently.Her role in Nollywood didn’t get her to become a celeb, but her relationship with award winning singer, Tuface Idibia, got Macauley, not only fame, but a child, Isabella. Macauley is yet to become Mrs. Idibia, but it is widely believed that Tubaba doesn’t joke with Macauley’s daughter among all his children from the other women.

















Lola Alao
Lola Alao: She used to be married to an American-based dude. The marriage crashed like a pack of badly stacked cards, but not before bringing out a daughter, who is currently staying with her mother.






Bukky Wright
Bukky Wright: Even at her age, Bukky Wright is a diva. Her marriage, which produced two kids, went under but the woman came out of it looking radiant and enjoying her life as a mother and as an actress.
