Ace Nollywood actress and movie director, Joke Silva, has said that her husband, Olu Jacobs, another veteran Nollywood actor, is no longer with her 80 Percent of the time.
She said that it has not been easy managing the health challenges of her husband.
Joke Silva, who spoke in an interview with a media personality and actress, Nancy Isime, said that her husband’s poor health had changed him significantly.
She said that Olu Jacobs is no longer the man she walked down the aisle with 37 years ago.
“It hasn’t been easy. There was a point of acceptance for me that everything happening is reality. It is like the person I married, 80 per cent of the time, is no longer there.
“But the thing is this: when he was there, he was an incredible father to his children and an amazing husband. He was practically my best friend.”
Joke Silva said that despite her husband’s health challenge, she has not stopped loving him.
“The husband I knew is no longer there for me. This man that is here is someone I still love, but love in a different way.”
