Lady married man when he was unemployed

Meanwhile, Legit.ng earlier reported that a beautiful lady has made a video to praise all the qualities in her husband as a response to a comment asking if her hubby helps out at home at all.

The woman said when she met her husband, he did not have a job as he was still in graduate school. She married him because of the potential that she could see.

In the marriage, the man has been helpful and supportive. The lady added that when she had a challenging pregnancy and could not work, the man became the sole provider and always ensured the house was clean.
