Renowned Nollywood actress, Ekene Umenwa, has opened up about her love story and journey to marriage with her husband, Alexson Kleason.
In a recent interview, the actress revealed that she met her husband five years ago through a business connection.
What began as a professional relationship blossomed into a close bond, with Alexson being the first to express romantic feelings. Over time, Ekene reciprocated, and their relationship culminated in marriage.
The couple recently marked their first wedding anniversary, a milestone that Umenwa described as a celebration of love and understanding.
Reflecting on her decision to keep her marriage private, the actress explained her preference for a low-profile personal life. “I kept my marriage under wraps because I value my privacy,” she shared. “I wouldn’t have announced it publicly if the wedding hadn’t been imminent.”
Umenwa also expressed gratitude for her devoted fan base, crediting her success to divine favor. “I didn’t build my fan base, God did. My fans are organic and love me for who I am,” she said.
