‘I’ve dated across religions and tribes’ – Ik Ogbonna opens up on plans to remarry

Ikechukwu Ogbonna, dubbed “one of the cutest faces in Nollywood,” has revealed his plans to remarry after his marriage with Sonia Morales ended in 2019. In a recent interview, IK Ogbonna, a father of two, stated his intentions.

“I am someone who would not discriminate; I have dated across religions and tribes,” he said when asked why he has not been tempted to mingle well with any Nigerian lady.

I don’t look at someone and wonder where they’re coming from; it just so happens that I end up with certain types of people, which we call’spec’.

When people tell you or say your spec is half-caste, it becomes that you are drawn to half-castes, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t dated dark-skinned people. So there is no discrimination; it’s just wherever I happen to be at the time.”

Ik Ogbonna also further cleared the air on how his first marriage crashed and the accusations of infidelity linked to him.

He said: “I have never said the cause of my separation, it has been all speculation and I would like the public to hold on to those speculations if they choose to do so. My private life doesn’t necessarily concern the world but, what I choose the world to know is what I make the public to know about me. Things don’t work out don’t mean I and the person would fall apart, or I come on social media and start saying these are the reasons why it did not work. It didn’t work but we are still friends.”

On his plans to remarry  anytime soon, the light skinned actor said: “We never say never. So for me, the doors are still very open but, probably in life you know you tend to look out for certain things and qualities in a woman because you don’t want to have a divorce twice. I am going to get married again but it’s going to be with someone with particular characteristics and personality that I can hold on to. If the worst comes to worst, I can hold on to this lady and move on.”
