A veteran actor,Mr Segun Arinze, a veteran actor, has gave  reasons on  why he shunned marriage for 12 years after his first marriage  crashed.
According to a  58-year-old actor earlier  married  Anne Njemanze, an actress, in 1996, but the marriage  ended in 1997.

But Arinze later married Julie in 2008 and they have three children .

However Segun Arinze, who   commented on the issue while speaking on the WithChude podcast, said he was actually in search for the right person for 12 years while he had refused to talk about his failed marriage ‘because people do not share everything’.

He further disclosed that ” I stayed out of marriage after the first one crashed. I stayed out of marriage for like 12 years before I remarried,’

. “I remarried in 2008. Not that I gave up on marriage, I was just really confused about getting the right person.”

He however added “I got into so many crazy relationships. Both the ones were good, crazy, and bad I have seen all.

However,”That year, 2007. I cried to God and said ‘Father Lord I have had enough can you just give me a wife’. I said just find me a wife. I remember I cried.”

But as God will have it “I went to a wedding and I saw this beautiful woman. I asked my PA to get her number but he came back because he was scared”

. Julius Agwu and I were the MCs at the event. It was Don Chi’s wedding. And Julius Agwu said ‘My brother dey look for wife o’. When I sat I went to meet her, collected her contact and then invited her to a dinner. That is how it started. The rest is history.

We are sixteen years in marriage now with three lovely kids. She is a lawyer. She is also my legal adviser.

He said that “When that happened to me in 1997 I kept quiet. I did not say anything. I just let it go. Till date I said nothing and I do not want to say anything. I do not want to discuss anything about it

 It happened. The shit will always happen. Everybody has a closet’ he said-
