GENEVIEVE, RITA ARE OLDER THAN ME, OGBODO

Nollywood actress, Uche Ogbodo, has declared that though she is married to a younger man, she is not that older than him.

Ogbodo, who spoke in a recent interview said people create the impression that she is in her 50s.

She said: “As a public figure, I should be open to criticism but the fact that people think that I am a 50-something-year-old woman is unbelievable!

“They think that Genevieve and Rita, the people I call auntie, are my mates.

“It doesn’t hurt me so much but it makes it seem like I am much older than my husband.

“He is in his 30s and I’m in my 30s too.

“We are just a few years apart.

“As soon as I finished high school, I entered Nollywood.

“I joined them at 19 in 2006.

“If you’re counting, you should obviously know how old I am now, but people just want to say rubbish.”

On how she feels being married to a younger man, she told Saturday Sun: “I’m happy.

“I’m living my best life.

“I have my freedom.

“I have a partner that I can communicate with.

“It’s a free marriage.

“It’s something that is fun for me because that’s the only kind of marriage I can do.

“I cannot do the marriage where I’m being bottled up.

“If you want to talk, the fear of the husband will be too much.

“No way!

“So, I feel good.

“I feel free.

“I’m like a bird in my marriage.”
