Uche Iwuji Celebrates Crashed Marriage

It seems not all marriage break-ups elicit sadness, considering how Nollywood actress, Uche Iwuji, has reacted to the crash of her marriage barely 12 months after she tied the nuptial knots.

Just as her fans were trying to come to terms with what really went wrong with her marriage to Juwon Lawal, an oil and gas entrepreneur, Uche is celebrating her freedom from the ‘marital shackle’.

The controversial actress once again took to the social media to share on her Instagram feed a series of her new photographs with an apt tag: “Free like a bird#”.

While some have said these online postures are messages to shut up those who have been slating her for the early break up with the man she profusely professed “love” for when the going was good, others are of the opinion that those pictures are mere facade meant to cover up her pains and disappointment.

In November, rumour of cracks in their marriage hit the streets, followed by a series of denials by the actress via the Twitter. But last week, hubby Juwon dropped the bombshell via a press release confirming an end to their controversial marriage which has produced a son.

“This should serve as the official statement confirming the end to the marriage formalised on Friday, November 16th 2012 between the CEO of ABD Fuels Plc, Mr. Juwon Rasak Lawal and actress Uche Iwuji,” the statement from Lawal’s publicist reads.

In a quick response to her estranged husband’s confirmation of the crack, Uche also took to Twitter and Instagram to express her mind to those mocking her:

“Haters can go and chop sh*t. I am now free to have my life back,” she tweeted.

Uche remains one of the leading Nollywood actresses who have turned a staple for celebrity media and gossip blogs for their controversial private lifestyles than their creative talents in movies.

She however became a bigger item when a sex tape and steamy nude pictures of hers surfaced on the social media prior to and during her marriage plans to Juwon.

This, according to some unconfirmed reports, was the root cause of their marriage break up. Their divorce proceeding are said to have commenced at a Lagos court.
