September 13, (THEWILL) – Veteran Nollywood actor, Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, has admitted that it is very hard for entertainers to be faithful in marriages.
He said married male celebrities are often targeted by desperate ladies, who aim to lure them into infidelity.
The 62-year-old thespian stated this in the latest episode of the ‘Teju Babyface Deep Dive Podcast’, hosted by comedian, Olateju Oyelakin, aka Teju Babyface.
“It’s very hard for entertainers to be faithful in marriage because of the line of work that we are in. Every one of us is married, we are the target. Look at how women are, how can you escape it?
“Women are like Delilah, they are like Jezebel, they prepare. The only way the enemy can perpetrate their real intention is to constantly aim at the image of God or the symbol of authority in any home. Then shut it down. It’s like shooting a General on the battlefield. You drop him and then the battalion scatters. Their mission is to take down the head of the family.
“So, it’s very difficult [to be faithful]. You have to get to the point where your wife understands what she is up against as well. Because if your wife is not up to speed on what she is up against, then you would be left open”, he added.
RMD has been married to former television personality, Jumobi Adegbesan, for 23 years. He was previously married to late May Ellen Ezekiel, a journalist, who died in 1996.
