In the comment section, she added that she had the 4th child after she left the marriage.

In a chat with Legit.ng, Ijeoma shared what the experience had taught her and her advice to women facing similar case.

She said:

"That experience actually taught me a lot about listening to wise counsel, and not letting love blind me to reality. I also learnt that marriage is not just about emotions; it's about peace, respect, and mutual support.

"To anyone in a similar situation, I’ll simply say this to them: DON’T ever silence your inner voice. If your spirit is restless, PAY attention. And if your loved ones are genuinely concerned, pause and evaluate, not every “I love him” is worth the pain that follows. Marriage is not by force. ALWAYS choose PEACE over PRESSURE."
