TV host Frank Edoho reveals crash of second marriage

Nigerian television presenter and anchor of the famous ‘Who-Wants-To-Be-A-Millionaire’ show, Frank Edoho, has disclosed the termination of his second marriage to Sandra Onyenuchenuya.
Mr Edoho revealed the separation while featuring on the latest weekly episode of the ‘Tea With Tay’ podcast, hosted by Taymesan.
Mr Edoho’s initial marriage to his first wife, Katherine Obiang, a Cameroon-Nigerian actress, fell apart in 2011, and subsequently remarried to Mrs Sandra, in April 2014.
Reflecting during the podcast, the TV host cited inability to find a soulmate, rather than a lover, as the cause of his failed marriages.
Mr Edoho said, “I have married twice. Maybe I’m not good at marriage, I must confess. The two women I have been married to are not my soulmates. The love of your life is different from your soulmate.”
He added, “The love of your life is the person who comes to your mind when you think of love. But your soulmate is someone who understands you even before you express yourself and you naturally align with.”
Mr Edoho explained that he tried his best to prevent his marriages from failing.
“I know that I went above and beyond for the two marriages. I carried my partner. I can abandon everything for her. But you don’t blame them for falling out of love with you. Take the footballer Kaka for example, he’s a Brazilian and he looks as handsome as an Indian. Very handsome guy, even when he retired from football, he was still handsome. But his wife divorced him. Do you know what she said? He is too good,” Mr Edoho said.
Advising men in a similar situation, he charged on the need to find true happiness in oneself.
“Find happiness in yourself. Don’t because you’re married stop doing what makes you who you are. After all, that is what your partner fell in love with. What I do now is that I am happy by myself,” Mr Edoho said.
“I have mastered the art of not transferring what happened in the previous one into the next because I will still remain the same. I now have an outlook in terms of marriage. First of all, it is not by force. If you’re a lady, close to your 40s and not married, don’t worry about it because you don’t know what you’re getting into. You might have good intentions and your partner goes off on a tangent,” he noted.
