The Movie producer, in an interview with her colleague, Debbie Shokoya revealed how her game was used against her by her now ex-husband.

She disclosed that she got married to a young man and they had their lives coming up. She added that she believed in making things work but her husband didn’t give her the opportunity as he always rubbed her fame to her face.

Wumi added that it got to a point in her marriage, when she called the media outlet, Punch Newspaper, to announce her separation but she kicked against it.

Following her divorce, she has channeled her energy into her son and making movies.

“I got married to a young man, we had our lives coming up. I used to believe we could work things out but at a point when you have issues in marriage and keep letting you feel your celebrity status is on the rock. Things that would have been settled.

Me and my ex co-parent on a good note. He is 100% involved in his child as of today.

At some point when my marriage failed, I just put all my energy into my movie and that’s what I am reaping today. My mental health was a mess then but I channeled the energy into my movies”.
