Thespian, Ini Edo has demystified the mystery surrounding the father of her child, Light.
In a recent interview, the screen diva revealed that although the father of her child is still alive, they don’t relate to each other.
Edo though presently not married has a 3-year-old daughter which she welcomed through surrogacy in 2021.
The actress said the father of her child doesn’t want anything to do with them, as her life revolves around herself and my child.
Edo said: “My journey is one that I have not been wanting to talk about because it’s personal.
“I’m raising her alone. I went through surrogacy.
“There was no man in my life at the time and I wanted to have a child. There are different ways to go about that.
She revealed that she had gone through IVF procedures to get pregnant and suffered six miscarriages before opting for surrogacy. X-raying the topic of surrogacy, Edo said, “I don’t think surrogacy is something people just wake up and say that’s what they want to do,” she said.
She added, “I never thought I would be someone who had fertility issues. But I’ve had issues carrying pregnancies long-term.
“When it looked like it was not going to happen the way I wanted it to happen and I wasn’t getting younger, I said, ‘What are the options? What is available to me?
“And then, this option came up, so I took it. And I’m very happy with my decision,” she said.
It would be recalled that Edo got married to businessman, Philip Ehiagwina in 2008, but the marriage which didn’t produce any children ended in 2014.
