Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim shares `unwholesome’ marriage experience

Ghanaian actress, Juliet Ibrahim has advised women involved in unwholesome marriage to quit and save their lives.

The book was an eye opener on Juliet’s growing up years and her current reality.

The Ghanaian star further appealed to women to quit their ‘unwholesome marriages’ in order to stay alive instead of killing themselves in such marriages.

The film producer, thereby, admonished the public to stop judging people who want to end their marriages, stressing that, hers left her in a dark place where she was miserable.

”People have had their own perception about what led to my divorce.

“I have sat down for many years and have had to deal with the pain and insults from the public who had no clue what I went through as a person during that period and how it affected me.

“The depression and all that happened. All I will say is you should never judge someone who wants to come out of a marriage.

“Sometimes, it is better to come out of it than to stay in it, for your own sanity and mental stability, it is always good to take a bold decision for yourself.

“For your kids, if there are kids involved take a bold decision,” she said.
