Nollywood actress Teniola Aladese says women should live independently before marriage rather than moving directly from their parents’ home to their husband’s. She believes that living independently helps women understand themselves, establish personal boundaries, and enter marriage with confidence and clarity.
Speaking on a recent episode of the “That’s What She Said” vodcast, Aladese pointed out that moving directly from living with parents to marriage can leave women unprepared for the realities of married life. By living alone first, women can discover their preferences, build self-confidence, and make informed decisions about relationships.
Her advice has sparked conversations about the importance of independence and self-awareness, highlighting how personal growth and autonomy can positively influence future marriages.
