Loss of pregnancies cost Ini Edo’s marriage?

Just days after Nollywood actress Ini Edo's reported departure from her 5-year old marriage to Philip Ehiagwina, rumours indicate her loss of three pregnancies may have played a role.

The actress recently confirmed the end of her marriage on Wednesday, October 2, 2014 in a series of tweets where she said she initiated divorce proceedings to end the marriage even though she never cheated on her husband.

Her tweets also raised the question of her husband cheating on her, especially since it is on record that her former husband, Philip had walked out of his first marriage to his first wife, Ruth before marrying the actress.

That union lasted for 5 years (2002 – 2007) but sources close to Ini say her marriage to Philip was doomed to fail from the very start.

Apart from the fact that Philip’s ex-wife, Ruth never approved of the wedding, Ini Edo also had to contend with negative media reports about her wedding to Philip. Another factor that may have contributed to the crash of the marriage is the fact that the actress has not been able to put to bed 6 years after marriage.

They got married in 2008 and in 2012, news broke of Ini Edo’s first pregnancy which was short-lived; as she lost the pregnancy shortly afterwards.

It seems the "I’ll Take My Chances" actress suffered miscarriages in the duration of her marriage as she was reported to have lost another baby in 2013, followed by another in June 2014.
