April 06, (THEWILL) – Nollywood actress, Foluke Daramola Salako, has opened up about her first marriage while speaking on red flags in relationships.

Daramola was married to Tunde Shobowale, son of former Lagos State Commissioner for Education, Professor Idowu Shobowale, but the marriage crashed as a result of domestic violence.
The actress revealed that she ignored the red flags and went ahead with the marriage because of peer pressure.
She added that she lost her virginity to rape, as such, she developed hatred for sex and saw it as a punishment, but her first husband didn’t bother about her plight and wanted it every day.
Speaking further, she revealed that her husband asked her to break her sim on her wedding night because she had to stop communicating with some people.
The actress added that she saw sex as beating and was always scared of going home.
“When I wanted to enter my first marriage, the sign was there even though my partner was rushing me into marriage and I was like my friends were getting married. All the signs were there, anger issues.
“My first experience was on my wedding night. I got a broken sim cause I had to change to a new sim.
“I saw the signs of abuse and anger, but I overlooked them.
“I lost my virginity through rape, so sex to me was punishment and the person I got married to wanted it every time. It felt like he was beating me”, she stated.
