Idowu Philips: Over My Dead Body Will I Get Married Again by Bigmugu(op): 10:19am On Mar 03, 2019
Nigeria actress Idowu Philips aka Mama Rainbow has made it known she will never be getting married again.

Following the death of her husband 35 years ago, the veteran actress in an interview with Sunday Scoop said she has no interest in marriage again.

“Over my dead body would I get married again. My husband closed (my heart) with a padlock and he went away with the key. I don’t trust the men of these days. There was one that said he wanted to marry me but he ran away after he saw all my kids. I have forgotten how to want a man. With five kids to cater for, I had no thoughts of that. In those days, I could go to four different locations in a day, to tell you how hard I was working to make money to take care of my children.”


On how her husband passed; “I can never forget the day my husband died in 1984. I felt the world was going to end on that day. He was my alpha and omega. I used to be a nurse but he was the one that made me to become an actress. As a matter of fact, during his burial, I told people to put all our children with him in the grave that I didn’t want them again. The shock was just too much for me to bear. Imagine one becoming a widow at the age of 42.”

“I took him to several hospitals such as the General Hospital in Lagos. I was a staff member of the hospital then and immediately I took him there, he was attended to. To be fair, the doctors tried their best but God had the final say. When a person reaches his or her bus stop, he or she has to come down. He eventually died at the University College Hospital, Ibadan.”

She continued saying;
“There were a lot of promises but after a short while, many of them didn’t check up on us again. He was buried in Awe, Oyo State, and many people practically turned their backs on us after the ceremony,” she said.

Re: Idowu Philips: Over My Dead Body Will I Get Married Again by Nobody: 3:51pm On Mar 03, 2019
Her husband died in 1984, my parents weren't even married then. If she wanted to remarry, she would have done so long time ago.

...But widows rarely remarry. So far she has means to take care of her kids, her world would revolve around them.

Same can't be said for widowers. Before the coffin even sink inside, them done marry another wife.
