Actress Ini Edo: I regret getting married

“I regretted my decision to get married because it wasn’t just the right move to make,” Ini Edo said.

In 2021, the actress welcomed a child via surrogacy, revealing that she chose that route due to miscarriages.

Ini Edo added: “I chose surrogacy because I had a couple of miscarriages. And I just got tired of trying.

“I don’t have a husband. So, I’m like, I want a child for myself, whether I have a husband or not. So, what other options would I have? And I wanted it to be my child. My eggs. Thankfully, my eggs are good. So I did that.”
