Shaffy Bello, a well-known Nollywood actress, recently discussed the causes of her divorce from her husband of 25 years.

Shaffy Bello acknowledged that although her ex-husband was a fantastic father to their kids, she wanted for more from her intimate relationships.
But the difficulties of frequently flying back and forth to keep the relationship going had a negative impact on her health and, ultimately, on the stability of their marriage.
She said;
“He [my ex-husband] was a good father to his children. But I got to a place where I wanted more. And I would always travel back and forth. But I knew at a point that if I really want this, it came with a sacrifice.
It wasn’t a sacrifice of marriage, but then he being there [USA] and the distance didn’t help.”
