Timmy K MacNicol, a Nigerian born, British based Nollywood actress who filed for divorce on February 6, 2020 to end her marriage with a British she was married to at age 19 has openly revealed her journey through the divorce. 

She lamented her ordeal for seven years after getting married to someone old enough to be her father.

According to her, she was not only abused by her ex-husband but was also forced to take blood oath.

She has come out to advise young ladies never to marry elderly men no matter how much money they have.

Her words: “No one believes what I am going through, no one believes that emotional abuse is real. It got to a point that I couldn’t hold myself anymore, I felt empty I felt like the whole world has ended, I felt less human. I can't be going through pain like this just in the name of marriage. We were married for seven years.

“When we got married, he forced me to swear blood oath with him that I will never cheat on him or leave him in any circumstances.

"This is why I will always advise young ladies never to marry elderly men no matter how much money he has. If you get married to him because he will better your life just the same way I did there are things inside that marriage that you cannot handle.

It will destroy you gradually, you will have money in your account and you can’t spend it.

"Due to his abusive nature, I haven’t had sex for good nine years even though I am married. I went back to being a virgin after giving birth to my son.”

“Young girls should avoid getting married go an old man; an elderly man, old enough to be their father or even grandfather.. You would be denied a lot.

"The man is old already and gotten children from other women. So after one child, he might not want more from you. If you want more than one child, that would be almost impossible. Getting married to an elderly man, you end up giving more to the man, the only thing he would be giving back to you, is money. And not even all the time because he got other children to take care of.

In her final tone, she gave God all the glory for sparing her life and pray that God sees her through the divorce as she is willing to share her experience so that other young girls can learn.

"You see, I wasted my life, just like that. In all, I still give God all the glory.

"Thank God that I am still alive and talking about my experience, so that other young girls can learn. Thank God I have a son. I pray that God sees me through the divorce. I would have to come back and start life afresh with my son.”
