Nollywood actress, Nancy Isime has shared her opinion on the role of finance in relationships and marriages. 

The movie star said she doesn’t believe that marrying a poor partner can make a woman live a fantastic life. 

Speaking in a recent episode of the Tea With Tay podcast, Isime explained that financial pressure can deprived poor couples of the joy of marriage and family. 

“Marriage is not a poverty alleviation scheme but I don’t believe marrying a poor man can make you happy. 

“When rent is due, school fees can’t be paid and there is no food in the house, it is difficult to have a fantastic life.

“I am not saying there is no love without money. But love and fantastic life are not the same,” she said. 

She advocated for intending couples to be financially stable to a certain extent before before getting married and raising a family.
