Actress Adunni Ade Gives Her View on Beauty and Being in a Relationship: “Can’t Keep a Man”

• Nigerian actress and filmmaker Adunni Ade has opened up about her personal journey and her beauty
• The movie star explained how physical attractiveness alone is insufficient to establish a long-term relationship
• Speaking from personal experience, she described her early years when she was constantly in the spotlight, appreciated for her beauty and personality
• In a chat with Legit.ng, Kingsley Speaks, a relationship coach, highlighted a key point about relationships

Nigerian actress Adunni Ade has shared her personal experience, emphasising that physical attractiveness alone is not enough to sustain a relationship or ensure a long-term partnership.

In an interview with Vangaurd, she described her early years when she was constantly in the spotlight, appreciated for her beauty and personality.

“I used to be the centre of attention, the most admired, the most talked about in my youthful days. Beauty opened many doors. I was loved, I was desired,” she said. “But guess what? I’m still not married.”

Adunni was keen to point out that her single status is not due to a lack of value. Rather, she insisted that being beautiful is insufficient to keep a man.

“Some came for the face, not the soul. Some wanted the shine, not the substance,” she explained. “I learned the hard way that a woman must be more than just beautiful.”

She advised women to prioritise self-improvement, values, and inner strength.

“Build your mind, know your worth, have values, be whole on your own. Marriage will come when it is right, but don’t think beauty is all you need,” she said.

Her message highlighted that while beauty can draw attention, it is character and personal development that actually matter in the long term.

"Life demands more than looks. Work on yourself, grow, be the kind of woman that doesn’t just turn heads — because in the end, beauty fades, but character stays.”

In a previous report, the Nollywood actress claimed that a dispatch rider, known as Francis Njoku, who works for indrive company, has made away with her goods.

In a post sighted by Legit.ng, the actress, who took a swipe at her colleague, explained that Njoku got to her estate and requested for an access code which she sent to him.

After waiting for about thirty minutes, the man refused to show up. He ended the trip before getting to her place, and he refused to pick her calls again.

In the post on her Instagram page, she shared a picture of the dispatch rider and called out the company he works for as well.

The movie actress, who was body-shamed by her colleagues, added that she contacted the person who sent the message, and she noted that the package was delivered.

In another video made by the actress, she claimed that the package was later delivered. She noted that the goods was delivered at around 8pm, as against 1pm that it was supposed to have been dropped off.

Beauty alone doesn't keep a man - Kingsley Speaks, relationship coach

In a chat with relationship coach Kingsley Speak, hr agreed with Actress Adunni’s words and mentioned that beauty can open doors, but it doesn't keep them open. He further went on to list other factors to take note of

"Beauty alone doesn't keep a man, marriage, or relationship together. This is something everyone needs to understand early. While it is true that beauty will attract a lot of men and suitors, it won't keep a man.

"There are very beautiful women who have realised this at a later age. These women realised that men are wired differently, and when it comes to the contact of marriage, beauty alone won't suffice.

"While it is true that a man also needs to be willing to stay in his marriage or relationship, it is also true that a woman needs to possess extra values for a high value man to stay glued to her in a relationship or marriage."

Adunni Ade calls out Kokozaria

Legit.ng earlier reported that Adunni Ade found herself in the black book of some of her colleagues after she called them out for collecting money to campaign for some politicians.

A few days after the call out, she cried out on social media that some people were threatening her. She called Mc Oluomo's boy, Kokozaria.

According to her, if anything happened to her, they should hold him responsible. She posted a video where Kokozaira was saying he would send people to deal with her.
