Nollywood actress and recent bride, Sharon Ooja Egwurube, has shared the inspiring story of her relationship with her husband, Ugo Nwoke.
Sharon and Ugo had their traditional wedding in Abuja on the 27th of June, 2024.
In an interview with BellaNaija during her wedding, the amazing actress revealed that she met her husband after recovering from her “worst heartbreak.”
She mentioned that one of her sisters introduced her to Mr. Nwoke.
Initially, she wasn’t interested, but she eventually accepted his relationship proposal due to his persistence.
“My love story is one that I would say is sort of a miracle. I had just recovered from what I considered the worst heartbreak of my life. I was filming and my sister called that a friend of hers wanted to speak with me. I said, ‘Please, I’m not in the mood. I don’t want to talk to anybody.’
“However, she went ahead and gave him my number and he is really, really smart. I was like, ‘Who is this person?’ I didn’t speak as much as we should have. Months passed, he kept on trying to reach out to me. I was like, This guy is persistent.
“We kept on having cute conversations. It was just one conversation that struck me. We spoke for about three hours. And I was like, ‘I think I like this guy.’ And then I travelled and I realised that he hadn’t called me for two days and then I said, ‘Why didn’t you call me?’ He was like, ‘Well, it seemed like you told me that you were gonna go out and have fun.’ I was like, ‘Yeah. I don’t think I want to be single no more.’
“The rest is history. We dated for two and half months and then I was engaged in the third month. And we married two months after that,” she said.
